You are right to hide them, they are extremely undesirable in 21st Century Britain ????. At the time, parliament was dominated by the Tories. If they'd all voted for May's deal, it would have passed.

Popular Post Chomper Higgot Posted September 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2019 A lot of Brexiteers ranting that the Supreme Court has somehow over ruled the referendum result, democracy and/or Brexit. The Supreme Court has done no such thing, the ruling over rules Johnson’s unlawful attempt to prevent Parliamentary scrutiny of him and his Government’s actions on Brexit. The prorogation of Parliament was an unlawful attack on British democracy, though an attack some Brexiteers were willing to stomach in the belief it would deliver them Brexit. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of UK citizens most certainly did not vote to Leave, as you put it, that is a lie. 17.4 million people out of over 60 million is a majority now? I said a majority of those who voted, therefore it is not a lie. Elections are won and lost based on those who vote. That's how Democracy works. Your argument that it shouldn't count because under 18's, people in jail, people who don't care etc. did not vote is ridiculous. Of those who voted, a majority voted to Leave. Get it? Same as how governments get elected to power. It's always been that way. It's not complicated. ???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am aware of yesterday's announcement as I read it in the mainstream media, strange that as you pretend they didn't report it. In true Brexiteer style you have gone off on an irrelevant tangent. The criminal allegations are quite separate from the Electoral Commission's investigations into the Electoral Fraud that the Leave campaign was found guilty of multiple counts of "most serious" electoral fraud, being subject to the strongest allowable punishment of a £20,000 fine for each count. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're unfamiliar with the term it refers to a group of elite, wealthy and influential people who have the final say about issues that affect our daily lives. I have to disappoint you. Laws apply to everyone, even Johnson and his wealthy and influential Eton buddies trying to have the final say about how politics work. It’s good that there are courts that uphold the rule of law and stop the Elite from putting themselves above the law. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephenterry Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 With the supreme court ruling that johnson's proroguing of parliament was constitutionally unlawful, his days are numbered, as his PM post is untenable - or should be. Probably happen if and when around 50 tory MPs send a letter of no confidence to the 1922 committee, he'll be history just like May. I'd vote for Rory Stewart as the next PM, as he appears to be the most realistic of all the candidates, and backs Britain, not himself. As I've said on several occasions, johnson went about brexit in totally the wrong way. Threatening a no-deal would never succeed, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are showing that you don't know what you're talking about. Let me remind you, as you seem to have missed it. It was the head of the Electoral Commission that branded the offences committed by the Leave campaign "most serious". Uder UK Electoral law there could not be any moves to overturn the result because the referendum was a non-binding, advisory one. Had it been a binding referendum then it would have been possible to challenge the result. Electoral Fraud is defined in law. What you describe as "exagerated claims" are not covered by that law. Interestingly, deliberately lying by an official campaign would appear to be covered, given that the reason the courts gave for stopping the action against Johnson was not that the £350m a week lie was within the law, rather that the motivation for bringing the action was deemed to be politically motivated. Do try to keep up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
