Is Brexit actually going to happen?

[Wookey]

you're actually watching this live?

Yes. My human rights are being taken away, I'd like to witness it.

 

[ska invita]

My money* is still on May's deal passing in some form in the end come what....may.

especially when it comes eventually to crunch point



*£1 tops

 

[ViolentPanda]

Looking at the numbers, allowing for the speakers and Sinn Fein, 35 MPs are absent today. Are all of them ill? Rather unhealthy bunch if so.

That's syphilis for you.

 

[andysays]

Yes. My human rights are being taken away, I'd like to witness it.

You fucking buffoon.

Didn't you claim to have taken out Irish citizenship recently anyway, so YOUR human rights will still be protected by the wonderful EU, it's all us stupid Brits who are supposedly the losers

 

[Winot]

It's actually a pretty good speech.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

She’s going to do it. A load of talks then some extra waffle to get it through by the skin of her teeth.

 

[chilango]

For all the ongoing fuck ups and unprecedented shambles you can at least still say this about Mrs May...

...she has never stuck her cock in the mouth of a dead pig's head.

Not every Prime Minister can boast that.

 

[Wilf]

It's actually a pretty good speech.

So far, it doesn't look like the tories are going to kick off too much today (from the body language).

Bercow!

 

[Sprocket.]

Bercow!

Nice.

 

[Calamity1971]

Bercow!

I'm confused, is he offering a vote to vote on whether they should still vote tomorrow rather than delaying.

 

[Crispy]

Everything to play for in the second half

 

[Wookey]

LGBT Brits without Irish citizenship are clearly the losers - I suspect strongly you could not give a shit about them.

I'm switching nationality because many of my fundamental human rights as a gay person came to me through the European Charter - the same Charter that the Tories voted to ditch, after Brexit morons handed Brexit to the Tories to enact. THAT is a fucking stab in the back for LGBT people that has yet to be justified. How dare these idiots erode my human rights and call it progress?

Rights to a family life, military equality, partnership equality, equality at work legislation, trans rights, there are LOTS of rights that the UK government at the time fought against, which the dreaded and hateful EU subsequently GIFTED TO ME and PROTECTS FOR ME.

NOT the Tories, not even Labour, but the EU protects those rights of mine and my LGBT brethren. And now, post-Brexit, they will be open to the same kind of erosion that IDS promised when he said that, were we to leave the EU after the lifting on the ban on gay people in the military, the Conservative part would look again at re-introducing that gay ban.

Anyone who voted Brexit caused this. Hence my anathema towards them as the true enemy of my freedom and liberty to be myself.

Do you think this will push those written, but unsent, letters from Tory MPs re a leadership challenge into the Christmas post?

Nope. And no VONC either. Anything, anything, anything but even the risk of a Corbyn govenment.

 

[killer b]

Bercow showing why the Labour Party allowed themselves to be painted as in denial about workplace bullying etc when they went all out to keep him in position last month...

 

[kabbes]

It's hard to think of another government that has treated the house of commons with quite such contempt. Even when treating MPs with contempt in the past, there was at least some level of lip service towards following the form. But this government is having to be forced to give MPs votes and information that is pretty fundamental to the point of their existence.

 

[two sheds]

Will we see a bunch of honours being given out to recalcitrant tories to bring them into line? Or alternatively thumbscrews.

 

[gentlegreen]

Backstop , shbackstop ....

 

[Sasaferrato]

It's both. The offer's been on the table for years for Labour to accept SNP (and probably Scot Greens) support to fuck over the tories when possible or for a Lab minority gov.

The politicking side is mainly to do with Scottish politics and indy.

You mean minority SNP government, propped up by the Greens. A bit rich Sturgeon spouting on, when she doesn't even have a majority in her own parliament, and is about to see their budget voted down.

Isn't the Scottish Parliamentiary system designed to prevent absolute majorities - full SNP control was an aberration rather than the norm?

 

[not-bono-ever]

Ah well

At least this particular brand of English democracy is now fully exposed as a fucking gerrymandered self serving sham. It’s now utterly pointless those 650 scummers thinking they can go back to the comfy good ole days.

This has to be a good thing

More unwilling flesh for the south Atlantic settlement programme

You had it all once Theresa —everything you ever wanted- maybe it’s time for you to get an early night

Yes. Even when Labour seemed monolithic in Scottish politics, it needed to be in coalition with the Lib Dem in order to form governments.

This was the outcome of a system specifically designed to deliver “consensus”.
