  5. Scottish Parliament backs People’s Vote on final Brexit deal The Scottish Parliament has backed holding a public vote on the final terms of the Brexit deal. Holyrood voted 66 to 28 in favour of a People’s Vote after it was put forward in a Liberal Democrat amendment to a government motion during a chamber debate on the Brexit threat to international scientific research in Scotland. The SNP and Greens backed the Lib Dems in the face of Conservative opposition and 21 MSPs abstained. Liberal Democrat MSP Tavish Scott, who tabled the motion, highlighted many in Scotland’s higher education sector want a right to vote, including the 23 senior figures from Aberdeen, Edinburgh and St Andrews universities who signed an open letter warning of the consequences of Brexit and calling for a People’s Vote. He said: “There appears no obvious upside to dragging the UK and Scotland’s higher education sector out of the EU, that is why so many in this sector want a right to vote on whatever cobbled-up negotiation appears out of London and Brussels. This Parliament should speak for our university and research sector, and all the people who work in it, and we should give them a right to a vote on it in the future. Higher education minister Richard Lochhead said he had heard of higher education staff being “left in tears” and considering leaving the UK over Brexit, and about universities hiring immigration lawyers. He said: “In Scotland, a country that voted overwhelmingly to remain in the EU, we should be resolutely focused on attracting the best minds in Europe to work and study here to help us build a successful, prosperous nation, but instead, thanks to the actions of others, we face the prospect of a Brexit brain drain. “We have to stand together and stop that happening.” Scottish Green education spokesman Ross Green added: “We’re fast running out of time but here is a window in which we can avoid this nonsense and reverse the damage already done. I hope we can seize it.” Labour’s Iain Gray said Brexit has been a “chaotic and catastrophic process”, and urged the final deal must achieve as “close a relationship as possible with the EU”. Conservative MSP Oliver Mundell accused the Lib Dems of having a “somewhat obsessive wish to hold another referendum”. “We believe that this matter has already been settled and that the best Brexit deal will now be secured by ensuring co-operation across all the parties with everyone doing what they can to support the prime minister as she seeks to build a consensus,” he added. “The fundamental climate in which our country operates internationally is going to change, but we have to remember that at the end of the day, that’s what the British people as a majority voted for and the job of the UK Government is to try and balance out those different priorities.” https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/world/scottish-parliament-backs-peoples-vote-on-final-brexit-deal-883874.html

  7. "When they throw rocks... consider it as a rifle" Hopefully the military that he has sent to the border disobey orders. The Nigerian army has already used his new rhetoric as an excuse for killing. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-46074719
  8. Harry Redknapp: "So now he's got to dig up that his win percentage was one per cent better than mine at QPR." "I took over a QPR team that had already played 14 games in the Premier league and they had two wins, so it wasn't exactly taking over a world class team, you know? And at Birmingham I took over a team that had gone 25 games and only won one, that wasn't easy." "My argument was about the Tottenham team I had, and I will not stand by and let someone come out with a statement like that when their facts are completely wrong." "He could say: 'Yeah, but you didn't win anything. You got two fourth place finishes and the quarter-finals of the Champions League, but you didn't win anything'." "Well the present team have had four years [under Pochettino] and they haven't won anything either, but does it make them a bad team? No it doesn't! I love watching them and I love the manager." "We all know Gary, he is an excellent pundit and was a great right-back, but he's opinionated and sometimes he goes over the top." "He hasn't got his facts correct in this case and he should have thought a little bit more about what he was saying. Yet, he's not man enough to say: 'Yeah I was wrong, I'll hold my hand up, that team Harry had was a good team'." "Now I'm going to hit some golf balls and I might put Gary's head on one of them!"

Great, but long, read here: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/nov/01/trump-rallies-america-midterms-white-house Feel the love, feel the hate – my week in the cauldron of Trump's wild rallies On the eve of the midterms, the most powerful man on earth corrals his troops around two visions of America – one full of hope, the other one much darker – and tests the ground for 2020
  11. Stereotypes. Does Dan Roan offend you with his comment?
  12. The NE has 25 Japanese owned factories, which employ 13,700 people. All those jobs are gone with investment shifted into the EU.
  13. Jake Humphreys is an absolute prat. Hope his words haunt him in his sleep. "This is where you think about your life choices."
  14. Just read that Glenn Hoddle collapsed at the BT studios and was rushed to the hospital.
  15. Newcastle have failed to win any of their opening 10 matches of a league season for just the second time - last doing so in the 1898-99 top-flight campaign, 120 years ago. The past six sides who failed to win any of their first 10 Premier League games went on to be relegated - Norwich City in 2004-05, Watford in 2006-07, QPR in 2012-13, Reading in 2012-13, Burnley in 2014-15 and Sunderland in 2016-17.
