Yeah, I think it's completely pointless except as a way for Tory backbenchers to signal to the leadership that they don't support the bill, which I suspect is it's real purpose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Davkaus Posted September 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2020 "Chaos with Ed Miliband". He'd be an unbelievable improvement over this shameless, philandering, lying, incompetent sack of shit that has the cheek to inhabit 10 Downing Street. An extract from Miliband's speech: Quote And let’s just get this straight for a minute, because I think it is important to take a step back, what the prime minister is coming to the house to tell us today is that his flagship achievement, the deal he told us was a triumph, the deal he said, as I said, was oven ready, the deal which he fought and won the general election is now contradictory and ambiguous. What incompetence. What failure of governance. And how dare he try and blame everyone else. Can I say to the prime minister, this time he can’t blame [Theresa May], he can’t blame John Major, he can’t blame the judges, he can’t blame the civil servants, he can’t sack the cabinet secretary again. There’s only one person responsible for it, and that is him. This is his deal, it’s his mess, it’s his failure. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) I don't know who this Tory is that's talking about Britain being a global moral authority that holds itself to a higher standard of EU countries. but he's wasted in the commons, he should be on the stand up circuit.

snowychap Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I've listened to an hour or so of this 'debate'. Some of the Tory backbenchers make me even more ashamed to be British than their leadership. They are a Truss soundbite. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As above though, Ben Spencer, for example, didn't toe the line - he agreed with the idea of the IM bill but disagreed with the contentious bits.

They're not on the rise. No (well, very few) backbenchers are on the rise, they are just being dangled. They're idiots and fools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
