Loiner Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Bercow had to follow the rules. There are too many eyes on this one for his usual bias. He’s saved May from a third surrender humiliation, but could have shot himself in his Remainer foot.Much now depends on the EU unanimity for an extension vote on Thursday. That’s not guaranteed.

Nigel Garvie Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Three cheers for Saint Bercow, why on earth should May be allowed to bring the same deal back to the house again and again until she bores everyone into submission, if it is part of the speakers rules that this is not permitted in the same parliamentary session. Brexiteers will no doubt be scrambling around desperately to try and paint this as being some kind of conspiracy against them - beyond sad. The precedent goes back to 1604 for heavens sake, were they plotting against Brexit then? The greatest pleasure I have on hearing this news, is that the twisted religious fundamentalists of the DUP will miss out on their second bung. British politics was beginning to look worse than a fight in a Pattaya brothel to our EU friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malagateddy Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 If that is indeed the case and dhe revokes article 50..methinks there is the possibility of massive unrest in the UK. I do not think she can reword it and vote on it this week as I think she needs to give 3 sitting days notice. That means she is going to the summit empty handed to ask for an extension, I think I know the answer, leave on the 29th or revoke article 50. It will probably be an executive decision to revoke article 50 and she will retire gracefully.

Since joining the EU, it's a shambles and a joke on the international stage, lost it's military more or less, doesn't make it's own cars, or much at all, come to it.

Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect It will be very interesting to see whether the eu agree to allow the uk an extension in view of this latest blow to the eu/may 'deal' - bearing in mind they've said many times that their 'deal' cannot be changed. Leaving with no deal will hurt them as much as it hurts us IMO - so why would they allow an extension now that Bercow has ruled that it cannot be voted on (yet again....) in Parliament? Rhetorical question obviously ????. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably is telling the truth, I am not saying he does not have strong views on the subject, he would not be in parliament if he did not have political views, anyway a lot of people will know who is who's car, I do not even think they are the same cars, if you look at the registration number plates, there is the name of the suppliers and they seem to differ which I think is just fake news by Brexit Smear.

sidgy Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Unfortunately, the current proposal for a second referendum is "May's deal Yes/No". If it's "No", back to where we are now. Madness. I don't think that the British public are going to be given the chance to say "May's deal/remain" which is what the majority want on a ballot paper. So much for democracy.The majority in HoC may want that ballot choice but perhaps the majority of the people would prefer "May's deal/ No deal" as the choices on any ballot paperSent from my iPad using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you think the electorate have changed their mind since the referendum - but (like MPs....), I'm not at all convinced this is the case and suspect that they're not quite stupid enough to revoke article 50. If they did so, more than a few MPs would lose their seats at the next GE IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
