No-deal Brexit will be stopped, Hammond says

Walking back a statement that reveals a politically sensitive intention, is not the same thing as reversing the intention. 

 

Trump and his ambassador don't just dream up policy ideas like insisting the NHS will be included in any US/UK trade deal, these decisions are made in response to US lobby groups pressing the President and his administration to further their own objectives.

 

Big Pharma, Health Insurance and Health Industry Services are extremely powerful lobbies in the US. 

 

The idea that Trump would make a policy U-Turn on US businesses getting their hands on the NHS is utterly naive.

 

That he can profess not to have meant what he clearly said, and then for you to swallow the explanation is demonstrated.  

I was only highlighting your selective amnesia ????

By displaying your loose grip on the workings of realpolitik.

 

Perhaps paying attention to the politics both sides of the Atlantic would help your greater understanding.

The disaster capitalists vultures see a post Brexit Britain as one huge meaty carcase to get their greedy talons into. Do any ardent Brexiters think that a desperate trade-deal less Uk will get anything other than bad terms from 'art of the deal' Trump even assuming Trump was able to broker these which he isn't. That lies at a congressional / state level and an huge Irish lobby wanting to punish Britain if Eire gets it in the neck.  Never mind though Brexiteers will spout any nonsense cling to any half-truth to keep their perverted dream alive. And let's get real underneath this all is an anti-immigration agenda , the minutiae of trade deals and the health of UK Plc are distractions from what many (not all) want is johnny foreigner out. At least some are honest enough to say that so we know what they think. Well BoJo has flown the kite of an illegal immigrant amnesty for potentially 500,000 illegals and unilaterally guaranteed the rights of EU citizens here. So that bird has well and truly flown. So they will get with Brexit absolutely nothing except a punch in their wallet as the world and its' brother take a position on broken Britain. But these bahtless Turkeys continue to vote for Xmas while waving their tatty flag. Don't worry a humbled and battered Tommy Robinson will be out soon. Hope he has learnt his lesson at Her Majesty's Pleasure. 

Quite a story. You should try fiction writing professionally.

At least you are clear. You hate democracy. Pitiful, but whatever.

I hate the distortion of democracy through outright lies , manipulation , dark money and state-sponsored Russian troll farms - yes I hate that 'democracy' because it ain't anything of the sort.

he is daydreaming again .nobody can stop the exit

It's not the weather - it is man made and can be man unmade by a sovereign national parliament. Any way I have 2k baht in the game with Malagateddy for the 31st October leaving the Eu bet. Now worth £54 but was £50 when we made it. Clever of me to bet in baht not pounds eh ?

I'm not sure if you are a troll or just ignorant. That poster has nothing to do with the subject.  Choosing the leader is set in rules, look at the Blair/Brown Labour pact.

Even his own party doesn't like or want him, so why would the Tories take him on as a temporary PM?

 

BTW how would he accomplish it?

It won't happen, Bill. For the simple reason that they (the 'Remain' camp) will as per usual argue themselves to a standstill. Too many disparate egos to make it work.

No one is saying that only one side is guilty, far from it, Labour employed some very dirty tactics by flooding local constituencies with Momentum supporters. It's the only reason that Corbyn is leader of the Labour party today. It severely hacked off many lifelong Labour Party members, large numbers of whom handed their cards in.

 

Who are Momentum? Young, middle class left wing activists who, after doing their "rebel without a cause" thing will become the next generation of bank managers, teachers and property developers (think Derek Hatton and Militant). Ordinary working people don't have a party to support them any more. So much so that as a lifelong Labour supporter and former member, If I vote for anyone at the next election, it'll probably be the Lib Dems (OMG).

 

However the poster has everything to do with the subject, no matter how much you dislike it and no matter how much it puts your beloved Boris in true perspective, he was elected by 0.3% of the electorate, all of them blue rinse tory diehards. Democratic? I don't think so.

Boris is not my beloved 5555555

 

I agree with your initial paragraphs. ????

 

The party is voted in, that unfortunately how it is, should it be changed? Possibly, but to what?

Personally, i think that if the PM resigns, the relevant party should choose it's leader, as they do now, up to them, but it should automatically trigger an immediate General Election. The people have the right to choose the Prime Minister.

Labour took in thousands of Corbynite members when they offered membership for about 26p a few years back. And those members keep him as leader. He's not so popular among Labour MPs though, but they're stuck with him. 

 

Today the leader of the Lib Dems (Jo Swinson) has stated the Lib Dems will not support Corbyn's proposal to become temporary PM. She knows he's too toxic. So his plan is doomed already. 

So the voters …. the people like him …. ain't that not the principle of party's..., or is it like now that a select group appoint a P.M. whiteout any PEOPLES election  ?  So don't cry about the will of the people not respected as for him it keeps him in the seat …..how things can be fun in politic life...lol

 

Hmm.... something must be wrong in the origin of politics …….should read about the French revolution  (however that only helped a few years …)

 

With my best understanding the ultra conservatives disliking him ...

 

He opened anyway a Box of Pandora …. now only a litle bit tuning in a for all opposition sides acceptable tempory P.M.... and Boris can claim his "Guinness book of records" trophy for shortest U.K. P.M. ????

I think Boris is toast ….(not Cake …)

I didn't think it would happen.

 

There wouldn't be enough support from his own party, certainly not enough from the Tories

and I suspect that any who voted for him would be deselected at the next GE, and it seems that even the Lib/Dems won't help him either.

I'm sure the Tories will take that into consideration.

Well said Danny - I couldn't have put it better myself.
