I hope this is true. Boris will sack Remain MPs who vote against Brexit. This has been a long time coming if MPS want to vote against their own party then that party is entitled to say you are not one of us. It probably won't matter to Ken Clarke due to his age and maybe some of the others won't stand again but hopefully it will remind the rest that if you take the King's Shilling you are expected to toe the line.

At this point whatever works to push no deal or a form of leave through. This is the nitty gritty and all the reasonable stuff has been tried and failed.....and we found out that the parliament was good at saying what it didn't want but nothing else. Johnson needs to do to pro EU Tories what Corbyn has done to pro Blairite MPs.

OK. Alastair Campbell has been thrown out of the Labour Party for not voting for his party.

From the BBC News website "It's a far cry from the numbers that we saw marching through Westminster earlier this year. I think we'd probably measure this one in the thousands [in central London]."

The Sky News report on the anti Boris demo was one of the funniest things I have seen recently. Both that and the on their spot report from Hong Kong was beyond satire.

That is the correct answer and it therefore takes both a brave and a convinced MP to risk their own future by taking a principled stand. Those who do deserve our admiration for refusing to be herded into the lobby.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

You vote them in! If you don't like who you choose then convince enough others and you can put whichever flavour of "pig" there that you like. Choosing our representatives is our collective responsibility and that's where any blame needs to be directed. At us! Absolute twaddle.
