Davkaus Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) Quote Chris Grayling faces potential bill of up to £28m No. He doesn't. We do. This level of incompetence in a government minister should be criminal. Edited March 15, 2019 by Davkaus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowychap Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I see there are rumours (that have been very much denied) that the Labour leadership are not going to push for a referendum until after a withdrawal agreement has been agreed in the Commons. What would be the point of that other than just to push it for show? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'plan' I've seen suggested is that it appears to be they will back a deal on the proviso that it is taken back to a referendum for the people to sign off the final decision in a deal v remain referendum. A having a cake and eating it approach, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was a local councillor, he could be personally surcharged for the cost of manifestly unreasonable decisions. MPs have decided that they can't be so punished.

I guess we'll see when motions are laid down, amendments moved and the party leadership actually decide upon a position (probably somewhere like halfway through the debate).

Genie Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Labour are a disgrace. Like a footballer staring at an open goal but not scoring because he can’t decide whether kick it or head it over the line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted March 16, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 16, 2019 Quote In Madrid last week, a senior politician told me that he was watching the Brexit crisis with growing astonishment. “England, the mother of parliaments,” he said, shaking his head. “We’ve looked up to them for so long.” Meanwhile an Italian friend who arrived in London on a delayed train — French customs officers are having a pre-Brexit strike at the Gare du Nord in Paris, delaying London-bound trains and demanding extra compensation — was also amazed. “We think our democracies are weak, elsewhere in Europe. But even if you took a bunch of Italians, Poles and Hungarians, kept them up all night and got them drunk, they still wouldn’t come up with anything as disastrous as what we are seeing in the House of Commons.” Washington Post 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
