strong rumours that hes ( jezza Corbyn) is looking to buy a property in Thame?And I was soooo looking forward to Corbyn as caretaker PM.
I heard that as well, place is going to ruin, they let any riff-raff in these days...strong rumours that hes ( jezza Corbyn) is looking to buy a property in Thame?
I don`t finish work till 5.00pm, be hard pushed to make it.
It looks like there aren't the numbers at this moment. The devil you know seems more enticing than the devil you don't for some Tories. I guess some know that they'll be hoisted by their petards if they err incorrectly and control will be well and truly gone.What BoJo is doing here is not 'business as usual' and no one should pretend it is.
The longest prorogation in the past 40 years was three weeks. BoJo is proroguing parliament for four and a half weeks at a time of national crisis.
I've said it 100 times - Britain is not a direct democracy; we're a parliamentary democracy. If you don't allow parliament to debate and have their say, then you're denying the British people their representation. And has been said above, that's basically dictatorship.
Corbyn has to now call for a vote of no confidence next week. Then the question will be - have enough Tory MPs got the balls to vote against their government in favour of a General Election? If they don't, then fair enough - parliament has spoken; we leave with No Deal.
If the government do lose a no confidence vote, but refuse to step down and/or schedule the general election for November 1st - and the way they're acting, you can't rule this out - then the Brexit question is going to end up being settled by the High Court.....which is frankly a ridiculous situation and an abrogation of responsibilities from all involved.

And I am unsure if there is really the legislative time to have the opportunity to challenge the Govt in a meaningful way. Maybot's clock running down method for other reasons is helping Johnson now.Well, we should fine out. For any MP that truly believes that a No Deal Brexit is going to be damaging to the country, next week is now the solitary opportunity to do something about it. If they fail to act, on their heads be it.
My chief concern is that Corbyn is a) actually pretty instinctively anti-EU, and b) almost completely self-serving, and therefore might decide that it's better for him (but not the country) to wait for a no confidence vote until a few months after a No Deal Brexit, when the effects are starting to be felt. Because he's been such an incompetent opposition leader, if the GE happened now, he could easily lose seats in Brexit areas to a Tory/Farage coalition, and seats in Remain areas to the Lib Dems.

Really? Have you forgotten the Parliamentary recess for Party Conference season normally mid Sept to mid October?
Recess Dates
Recess dates and sitting days for the House of Commons, Houses of Parliamentwww.parliament.uk
We are now (pretty much) in September.
They return on the 2nd (about lunchtime as its Monday!) they have Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday (and Friday if its a sitting day!).
Between the 9th - 13th Sept through until October 7th (give or take) Parliament would close for the conference recess normally.
In his letter it is clearly spelled out what is needed of Parliament & a time table for it.
So where are your "four and a half weeks" hiding???
"National crisis" ?? You are Owen Jones & I claim my £10.
