If that amendment hadn't passed then May would have had 21 sitting days to come up with an alternative plan which probably equates to over a month of real time. It's nonsense to think that was sensible given we've got less than 2 months. I hope to god those no deal strawberry floaters are on the wrong side of history down the line because every man, woman and child needs to make them pay for holding the country to ransom.

Surely for that to happen we actually need to leave without a deal? Otherwise it will forever be recorded as 'that thing we could have had' by those melt jobs. If this amount of information and facts can't dissuade them, then nothing but the absolute ruination of the country will.

What does the Speaker allowing an opposition backed amendment to be voted on have to do with Labour's Brexit position?

Grieve is a Conservative.

And the amendment was opposition backed. If anything, it is more damaging for the Govt that a former Attorney General is working with Labour.

Whether by design or sheer luck, I don't think anyone can really doubt that the govts Brexit plan has been robustly opposed.

The no deal supporters will never admit they were wrong and will always blame somebody else.

If no deal doesn’t happen, they will constantly be telling everybody that things would be better if we had had no deal. They will seize on any financial downturns as an opportunity to say “this wouldn’t have happened if Britain had gone for no deal!”

If no deal does happen, then they will blame any disasters on the EU and on Remainers. “No deal is the best way, but the EU have deliberately sabotaged us and the Remainers treacherously colluded with the EU to try and force Britain back into the EU!”

These are not sensible people and their pride and in some cases their income depends on them never admitting that they were wrong.

Thank strawberry float that Bercow did that. It actually makes sure that the government needs to face the reality of this as opposed to postponing for another lot of weeks. It would be irresponsible of them to do this.

Popinjay may refer to:
Old-fashioned term for a parrot (cf. Old French papegeai and papegai, German Papagei )
A dandy or foppish person
Popinjay (sport), a shooting sport that can be performed with either rifles or archery equipment
Popinjay, Stibochiona nicea, a species of butterfly
Popinjay (Wild Cards), a Wild Cards character
Popinjays, a British indie pop band
Corporal Popinjay, a Catch-22 character


I assume the Mail think he was part of an indie pop band.

Haha they are both a monumental gooseberry fool show. Corbyn/Labour should be running runs round these clowns but instead it takes the Speaker to step in for the good of the country.

I still don't get how yesterday shows "it takes the Speaker to step up" when (AFAIK) Corbyn/Labour can't make the decision on when an amendment can be voted on, as that's the Speaker's job?

Corbyn still going on about how the new negotiated customs union they'd get from the EU (Unicorn cake!) is the only way to bring Leavers and Remainers together.

Q: [From Channel 4 News’ Jon Snow] Channel 4 News has been speaking to young people who could not vote in the referendum. Most want to remain. Have you forgotten them?

Corbyn says he is very aware of how young people want free higher education, and access to training and jobs. He understands what they feel about remain. But he also understands the views of those who voted leave. His speech today was about how you can bring the country together. 


Delusional tosser.

So he hasn't forgotten, he just doesn't give a gooseberry fool.

Getting young people to support him is one of the greatest trolls a politician has pulled off.
