Detournement Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 British parliamentary democracy has always been a farce anyway. This is brilliant. Get all the corporate nodding dogs and Dominic Grieve style honourable gentleman to f**k and get some proper class war on the floor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minds will be made up and/or changed rapidly. How many folk watch the news, let alone watch it in detail? Headlines and the first few paragraphs from the Mail or Sun is all that many of them need to reinforce their prejudices. If there was a way to subliminally insert political discourse into I’m a celebrity, Big Brother, Masterchef, Strictly Come Dancing, Love Island, etc. then we might have a chance of a more informed electorate. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Wolf Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 I've been finding the last few weeks in UK (RIP) politics more amusing than anything else, and am wary of allowing myself to hope that anything positive could come out of it, while occasionally having moments when I did indeed hope. There was no danger of that tonight though, I watched those performing chimps for two and a quarter hours, and it's left me fucking angry. We already have class war - the people born millionaires are fighting to reverse every single incremental social change since the repeal of the Corn Laws, and they're winning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTJohnboy Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Can't believe he said the best tribute Parliament could pay to Jo Cox would be to deliver Brexit. Presumably not aware that Jo Cox was murdered because she was a huge advocate of Remain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Clearly the best tribute to Jo Cox would be a full scale invasion of Syria. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very large number on the Tory side don’t fucking care. They see this as an opportunity to row back on the many advances that have been made in society. It is no coincidence that this is happening at the same time as the most corrupt and populist US President is in power and that there is a rise in extreme right wing parties in Europe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minds will be made up and/or changed rapidly. You would hope so, but as the rhetoric cranks up then so does people's irrationality in the face of the evidence. We have now entered into a tribal bare knuckle-fight and the prospect of Brexit sliiping away is being played by Johnson in the manner of Trump - attack, attack and attack again and portray anyone trying to bar his progress as an enemy of the people. Rather than pause to consider the verdict of the Supreme Court, it is being trashed and to be honest I wouldn't be surprised if the likes of Johnson, Rees-Mogg, Patterson, IDS, Francois, Baker and Bone are tonight silently praying that things start to kick off in places like Hartlepool, Stoke and Sunderland, to name but three, as civil unrest is becoming their last gambit. They ar utterly desperate in every sense of the word and the opposition must now keep their collective nerve and stand firm in the face of the media smear campaign which will surely follow. Johnson, and Trump for that matter, now feel the waters lapping at their ankles and will respond in the only way they know, by lies, bluster, insinuation and aggression. So be it, their eventual defenestration will be delicious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Last night was a genuine disgrace. I’ve no idea where this country is going, but it isn’t good. There is absolutely no way the majority of Tory MPs are sitting there thinking this is right and proper. But they’re going to do absolutely nothing about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why an election is preferable as it would hopefully create a parliament that has a majority to move forwards with a majority. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford prefect Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Gotta love the term remoaner. It's a term thrown about by people who are too stupid to realise how much long term damage leaving the EU will cause us as a country. Usually preceded or followed by the phrase "why don't they just get on with it? Or "leave means leave" absolute fucking roasters 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 What's more disturbing is the number of voters who think it's okay to do this.‘Just trying to get things done’. It’s alarming. There is a large, large chunk of people in this country who don’t care that their Prime Minister is illegally suspending parliament, refusing to comply with the Benn law and encouraging violence against opposition MPs. People in Western politics, especially since social media, are far too quick to denounce someone they disagree with as a Nazi. But Johnson has well and truly lurched into fascism at this stage. With a majority parliament? Truly not worth thinking about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ford prefect Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Long term gain? You do realise in the 50s and 60s our GDP growth was lower than EEC countries when there was only 6 members. Now there's 27. What makes you think we'll be better off leaving now? Madness 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
