ewerk 30266 Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Get the doors to parliament open. Prorogation wasn't ever valid so they can start again right now. Some uncomfortable questioning coming up for Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5179 Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Apparently it's up to Bercow what happens next. So yeah, I think we can assume Parliament is coming back. The UK is just hilarious at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah come on man, the drama is enjoyable. Politics has never been this engaging in living memory. It's like a soap opera - lies, cheating, breaking the law, expulsions, betrayals, Johnson battering his partner - all we need now is for some kind of forbidden 'cross the aisle' love affair between JRM and Thornberry and it'd have everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The country will be fine - the journalists will get excited about it but some semblance of normality will have returned by tomorrow and we'll get back to fighting over Brexit again.

The whole saga is putting businesses in limbo across the whole country. If we are having another vote, let’s just have it.. because reality is, if we had left without interference we could have been a year or two into fixing the mess and recovering by now. And businesses would know where they stand. Wish they would just all agree a way forward and get on with it, remain or leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The diehard Leavers, in fact. Remember, May had a majority back then, the opposition votes were meaningless if she could command the full support of her party. But yes, the limbo isn't helpful - and I'd put a second vote before any and all other considerations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just pointing out it’s not that funny or entertaining. and should be done and dusted by now. Edited September 24, 2019 by zerosum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corbyn has already started failing to capitalise on this IMO by having the weakest statement imaginable in response to it. "Johnson should consider his position". I think he could have done with a bit more passion in that one. I share everyone's certainty that he will fail to make this stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
