She should be more concerned in loosing her seat at the next general election. BP is here to stay unlike CUK that will be history in 2020. Nigel took Andrew marr apart last weekend, that twonk trying it on and got no where.

Nigel is extremely limited on topc detail and only has the ability to opine on Brexit related matter.

Theresa May is giving MPs another chance to vote on Brexit in early June - whether or not the government and Labour have reached a deal by then.

I would laugh but this has gone way passed that.

Broadband, pay-TV, mobile phone and landline customers must be told when their contracts are about to end and be informed of their providers' best alternative deals, under new rules.

About bloody time, times I have been caught out paying more before picking up on the issue. Not only that my last one was for a year and half and just after a year they stung me because the contract was up! What about the remaining six months?


OK back to normal...

The decision has been taken to axe the show for good.

British troops and veterans will be given stronger legal protections against prosecution, Defence Secretary Penny Mordaunt will announce.

The new law would protect them from investigation over actions on the battlefield abroad after 10 years, except in "exceptional circumstances".

Ms Mordaunt said it would prevent "repeated or unfair investigations".

Not before time either, it's just a pity it has a ten year clause in it and won't be retrospective.

Good :yep:

They have said they are looking forward to working on other projects in the future with Jeremy Kyle so they are certainly not attributing any blame on him for the unfortunate circumstances that occurred.

Have there been so much wrong accusations that this seems to have a priority?

"She is also expected to repeat the government's commitment to take up a right to suspend parts of the European Convention on Human Rights before the UK embarks on military operations.
The Ministry of Defence said the suspension, known as "derogation", would protect British troops from the kind of "persistent" legal claims that followed operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.

This sounds as if british soldiers are or will be above the law? :hmmm:

No, not at all, ten years is a fair enough length of time and in 'exceptional circumstances', such as where compelling new evidence had emerged, the protections could be set aside.

Woohoo the Tory backbenches plan to get rid of May within a month according to a SKY News report. I say...:O::O::O::O::O::O::O::O:



What a load of rubbish, they tried it by vote they tried it by how bad they were in the polls and election results and still May remains in charge. What a bunch of ding dongs they are. :doh:

She will not be leaving before a June attempt to get her deal through but this is old news really.

Very true but either which way both major parties are now split, possibly irreversibly.
