Planned and coordinated like the rest of the thwarting of Brexit. Not a reason still? Representing their Labour voters would bring no problem. But that’s not the reason is it? Nothing to do with the fact we should’ve left once, going to be twice, had votes on this theee times, but they still won’t allow it to happen. It’s the nasty man Boris and his tongue. He’s why. The people they represent are feeling disrespected, but hey, who cares about some manual workers in the north, or anybody not feeling the wonderful benefits of the EU. Those are separate issues to the requests they made yesterday which were so contemptuously dismissed by Johnson. There is no reason why the differences cannot be debated without the use of inflammatory language which adds to the already high levels of threats that this whole sorry situation has engendered. The PM should be leading the way on this but Johnson is leading the charge to lower standards.

If one is referring to Johnson's use of "Betrayal" and "Surrender",with the greatest of respect I would have to disagree that such words used in this context enter this category. I happen to believe the tirade by Barry Sheerman veers into this territory.All very febrile in the Commons thanks to MPs who have frustrated Brexit time and time again.

Just when I think the level of Remaoner hypocrisy cannot get any worse they surpass themselves. They accuse everyone that disagrees with them of doing exactly what they are doing themselves e.g. undermining democracy, mounting a coup, dictatorship, escalating the rhetoric/language. It's a classic tactic of the leftist establishment and we can all see it's going on. They need to start thinking about what happens when people give up on democracy. The last time parliament was in a similar situation it started a civil war.

Johnson has just alienated the support he needed. Minority now of -43 and more after yesterday I would think. I can't see one-nation tories taking any more, but there we go.

I happen to believe the tirade by Barry Sheerman veers into this territory.All very febrile in the Commons thanks to MPs who have frustrated Brexit time and time again. This and many others. To describe an Act of Parliament, duly passed and given Royal assent, in such language is to demean Parliament itself and shows utter contempt for the rule of law. To do so at this time, when emotions are frayed and the actions of some of our less balanced members of society are already causing problems for people, it is more than irresponsible for anyone. For our PM to do so is completely unacceptable and indefensible. To blame those in Parliament who passed the Act for doing their job and who then get angry because they are being disrespected is quite ridiculous. To do so when MPs are being threatened is dangerous.

The hypocrisy my friend is 100% coming from this government whose coordinated, "doubling down", strategy has been taken straight from the Trump pocket book of tactics, as devised by Roy Cohn. Never apologise. Attack your attacker. Find a scapegoat. It's classic Trump. It's classic populism and has nothing at all to do with our democracy. Which to remind you, yet again, is based in Parliament. It's a disgrace to be seen in the UK and I hope the Tory mandarins behind the scenes put an end to it asap. Their funding will dry up pretty quickly if they don't.

Those female MPs are receiving death threats every day from nutters being wound up by the rhetoric coming out of Johnson's mouth and you think that is them trying to score political points!!!! What about abuse/threats received from the left by Jewish MPs and those speaking out about anti-semetism in the Labour Party. Can't blame Johnson for that, seems Momentum are as bad if not worse but presumably that does not count

Say and be honest.

Then a vote of No Confidence will sail through and the Tories wiped out in a general election. But oddly enough, none of the above is happening. LOL.
