If Boris breaks the law as has been hinted, there will be many many more. Tories have lost the plot, a narrow English sect with a hint of fascism...

“Just want it sorted” - in which case the last thing you’d want is a No Deal Brexit, as that would mean us not being sorted for 20-30 years. Endless Brexit in the papers for the next few decades.

Another week starts, so a quick hats-off to Nicholas Soames, talking about Jacob Rees-Mogg in The Times yesterday. I didn't know he had it in him. (It is best read in Soames's fruity Etonian boom.)
""He is an absolute fraud... a living example of what a moderately cut double-breasted suit and a decent tie can do with an ultra-posh voice and a bit of ginger stuck up his arse."
Great stuff. (Of Johnson, Winnie's grandson said: "(he's) nothing like Winston Churchill. Winston Churchill was like Winston Churchill because of his experiences in life." Johnson's experiences of life, Soames says, consist of telling lies about the EU in Brussels and then becoming prime minister.
What have we descended to.

I know ... it's utterly appalling and shameful when a significant proportion of the country has the arrogance to think it's completely acceptable to ignore democratic results they don't like.
Meanwhile, despite all the breathless excitement on NSC about the remain/rebel alliance apparent success in delaying Brexit and the problems for the government the latest poll gives Boris a 14% lead.

Just when you think it's been another depressing week for the leave campaign and voters, with more resignations including close family members, Johnson's plans falling apart, Leave voters finding out what the word 'advisory' means (I think 'parliamentary democracy' may take a while longer), and all appears darkness and despair,
along comes one of your polls or [MENTION=22389]bashlsdir[/MENTION]'s job adverts to lift the spirits and fortify them for the week ahead

But like all democratic results we can change our minds if we want to. That’s why it’s called democracy.
Risky challenging [MENTION=13715]jimhigham[/MENTION] on this....I take it you haven't read his post about the short Albion career of Emeka Ifiajagwa?

Stupid IDIOT
That's not the latest poll , so calm down
But wrong
A tory trade union member?
Voted Corbyn to keep labour out? Wants it sorted? I recall someone close to me, some years ago, so disgusted with Blair's weak socialism, insufficiently red in tooth in claw, he was threatening to jolly well vote tory.
Yes, dear. OK love.
See post above.
I am yet again reminded of John Alderton attempting to educate Duffy in 'please sir'.
Duffy hmm, I only had eyes for Sharon Eversleigh played by the lovely Carol Hawkins!

A fair summary of a significant number of leave voters in their own words

In fairness, Westdene Seagull clearly knows their stuff.
Emeka though. You really had to be there.
I actually suspect we don't have the same job. Rather you come from the process and enforcement side ( i.e. you're something to do with Border Force ) while I come from the technology side. Only reason I know a bit about it is that I read about it from an article in the IT trade press - Computing I think. It interested me because of the facial recognition tech. So I did a little more research. I agree 'no questions' in it's exact definition is correct but let's be honest, the questions asked by a human at the desk are slightly defunct nowadays with the internet being able to provide someone with a decent answer to any question just as long as they remember their research.

But it's not well said at all is it.
It's the ramblings of blithering idiot who has run away with his fingers in his ears like a 10 year old.

I love the smell of not now having an MP, who's a Tory cabinet minister in the morning. Smells like...........victory.
The below is the transcript of a letter sent to Ms Rudd last week, signed by the Hastings & Rye Labour, Lib Dem and Green parties. It's good she did as she was told:
As we meet to sign this letter, the country is still reeling from an unprecedented attack on the sovereignty of Parliament – by our own Government. We were in agreement with you when, back in June, you were interviewed on Hastings Pier and condemned any attempt to stop Parliament doing its job of protecting the best interests of the British people, British businesses and our public services. Indeed, you said:
‘I think it’s outrageous to consider proroguing parliament. We are not Stuart kings’.
Imagine our profound disappointment that you not only accepted a position in Boris Johnson’s government and abandoned your Remainer convictions, but have now said nothing in opposition to the Prime Minister’s decision to prorogue Parliament.
You have, in our view, let yourself, and the people of Hastings and Rye down. We, the under-signed, now demand that you resign from Boris Johnson’s cabinet.
If you will not, you should have the courage to explain to the constituency, in writing, the reasons for your refusal, and for your public silence on this most crucial of issues. We look forward to your swift response.
