As if...:haha:

Just like the banking racket as if....:har:

The only winners of this Brexit mess will be the lawyers making millions of pounds and do they support staying in or leaving?


No they worship money!

Hard brexit soft brexit and now blue red white brexit, what next? Mushy peas and pie brexit!

Public: Well, what've you got?
May: Well, there's egg and bacon; egg sausage and bacon; egg and Brexit; egg bacon and Brexit; egg bacon sausage and Brexit; Brexit bacon sausage and Brexit; Brexit egg Brexit Brexit bacon and Brexit; Brexit sausage Brexit Brexit bacon Brexit tomato and Brexit;
UKIP: (starting to chant) Brexit Brexit Brexit Brexit...
May: ...Brexit Brexit Brexit egg and Brexit; Brexit Brexit Brexit Brexit Brexit Brexit baked beans Brexit Brexit Brexit...
UKIP: (singing) Brexit! Lovely Brexit! Lovely Brexit!
May: ...or Lobster Thermidor au Crevette with a Mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and Brexit.

Since no one's replied to this point I'll take that as a no. That's the BBC's news teams in England not doing their job to educate and inform, then. :hmmm:

Mike.

Boris has opened his mouth and put his foot in it...but, got to admit in this case he's not wrong...it's just, Boris...you don't slag off allies, even if they're useless ones.

I can't see Boris in any other way than being a ticking time-bomb, an individual who I should imagine is seen as being nothing more than a laughing stock in the eyes of other governments.

I'm also at a loss as to why Theresa May has given him such a high profile cabinet position.

Surely his popularity within the party doesn't warrant the prominence he is being given :hmmm:

Apparently a source in the cabinet has said that Boris is 'on his last life', so unless he finds an extra life somewhere he might well outstay his welcome.

Could well be that May decided to put him somewhere where he can screw things up so he can hang himself and save her the trouble of having to build him a gallows.

Revenge... you wanted Brexit, now you negotiate :)

Another one from Brian Taylor after SLab Leader Kezia Dugdale's latest constitutional brainwave;

Labouring over the 'Scottish Question'

At the end of the day, it was Labour who implemented devolution and arguably it's up to them to try and fix the current lopsided mess.

Not that anyone will actually give them much of a chance, nor will they get much help from the Tories.:hmmm:

I forgot to mention earlier that what we're getting from BBC Scotland is in addition to what the main news bulletins are giving the rest of the UK. Despite plans for an hour long "Scottish Six" from the BBC, we do still get the same main programs as everyone else. So everything I've posted is effectively extra content.

Mike.

Sleaford and North Hykeham by-election

So the Tories hold on with a reduced majority but once again we see the looser Labour slipping from 2nd place in 2015 to 4th place behind UKIP and the LibDems. Next years local elections will be one to watch.

Yes, there is always that possibility :)

Jeremy must currently be thinking he is out of the woods but come the next round of elections I suspect he will find his 'popularity' becomes an even bigger burdon.

Being so called popular will not get you in power alone you need to show you are up to the job. Yes old so called film star Jeremy and the corbinites are in for a rude awakening.

I'm not so sure governing the country is currently considered a realist objective by them.

There first objective was to gain control of a major political party with which to garner the sounding board for publicity at a national level and to that end they are becoming increasingly successful.

After that, government?

Only time will tell.

TFW you forget to carry the zero:

May could not just ignore Johnson, he would have not sat silent, but would have interfered with ambush sniping and ricochets. Before she can sort him out once and forever, she needs to complete the task of deconstructing him by leaving him the opportunity to deconstruct himself while he still cannot doo too much harm. Once has copmpleted ther task, he thaen can be puit aside safely and cannot become a dnager that easily again. But to get there, he has to fail not as a meaningless backseater, but in a responisble position.

Maybe May has heared of Patton: if you see Johnson making mistakes, do not interrupt him.

Before May can "kill" Johnson, she has to ruin his reputation - the remains of it - completely. So far, he complies marvellously.

Question is if May even will last until article 50 gets called.

If it ever gets called.

Too bad that the old TV-series "Yes Minister" is no longer produced. Their screenplay writers would have had party days with the current situation.
