So what. He said he would go with No Deal, no problem.

Is he defying Parliament or doing something illegal?

I cannot keep up with this drama.

He'd be breaking the law as far as i understand it.

It makes me even prouder to live in Ireland where we have a stable government and none of this childish populist crap

Yet people think our government are clowns.

How can the British people be proud of their national parliament. I know the dail is very scripted and can be boring, but honestly I’d take our dail over this mess.

Will Ian paisley jr apologize for shacking his head in a dismissive way when a colleague in front of you were talking ? Of course not.

I wonder if Johnson went to Brussels and threatened to disrupt all EU procedures until the UK left would they turn round and say "no extension to the UK". I'm not sure how that would work, but the elephant in the room for Remainers is that if the EU doesn't offer an extension then the default position is "No Deal" no matter what Parliament rules.

At the moment I'd expect the EU to agree to an extension, but maybe Johnson will somehow "persuade" them not to.

It's theatre. Nothing to do with governance. All to do with galvinising the Leave vote.

They are clowns alot of the time. Westminster outdoing them in style at the moment though.

Great job brexiteers at taking back control of your laws, your money and your border. We have the prime minister saying he will refuse to obey a law just given royal ascent, complaining about being forced to pay 250million a week to the EU because they want to leave the border with the EU completely open and uncontrolled

Yup, the cut of the wan to the left of Boris (as your looking at him)

Nicky Morgan I think. Surprising to see her beside the PM on the front bench.
Quite disappointing also, was on the Grieve side at one stage back in 2018.

Tory MP Jeremy Lefroy asked a very pertinent question of the PM and his front bench. They are all working to get a deal but if there is a general election then everything stops in the civil service, including the work they will need to do supporting those negotiating a deal. So how do you negotiate a deal and go for a general election? All those nodding heads about getting a new deal, liars.

The DUP don't half fancy themselves in this...they should be able to see the bus soon.

Morgan to the left and De Villiers to the right.

Morgan was on the EEA bandwagon for a long time which I thought would be a nice compromise,assume she is not anymore sadly due to her promotion under Boris.

And of course, the brexiteers simply ignored that perfectly valid question

She could jump ship any day now.

I'd say a lot of them still in the Chamber have already had a break in the bar.

But to be fair the shouting and roaring is just unreal. As others have said it is worse than a kid's playground. But maybe it is tradition and allowed and tolerated.

Enzokk · 09-09-2019 11:32PM

So that is Labour and the SNP who will vote against it, so unless something spectacular happens that would be 6 votes lost out of 6 for Johnson.

Itssoeasy · 09-09-2019 11:32PM

I may be wrong but I think there is 90 minutes of debate for this motion, so another hour. But don't take my word for it, just an assumption.

Edit: Got the tweet with the timings.

Well, as expected the NI economy is hit first. It is either in recession or the brink of recession according to Ulster Bank.

I can't see how the DUP will survive if the recession starts to hit working class protestant areas. They've already alienated small business and farming groups (with Sammy Wilson telling them their fears over a hard border are wrong) and once the working class voters are hit I'm not sure how they'll spin it or fend off the likes of Alliance and PUP.

No offence meant to anyone but he'll survive because they won't be take any responsibility for their economic status. It's the same with the marching season and bonfires, events that scare off investors and make life hard for local businesses. Then they complain that they're economically neglected.

A short sidetrack to Brexit, the tradition of failing upwards when working for May is being kept up with Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill getting CBE's. They only cost her the majority she had and forced her to get into bed with the DUP which totally threw her Brexit deal down the drain, here have some honors for your failures.

It amazes me that MP's still think BJ has a plan, it's like they lost all logic. A leopard does not change their spots, once a liar always a liar

What ever happened to thinking of the country first rather than your own party and this is the big problem with the Tories at the moment, they are far to tribalistic
