Looking forward to meeting up tonight with a host of my Tory Brexiteer chums, real "Spartans", over several 'Tinctures' before,during and in all likelihood after some culinary delights! Sobriety is certainly not on the agenda.No prizes for guessing the topic of conversation!

Talk to us about the threats of violence by the far-left aimed at MPs who have spoken out about anti-semitism in the Labour Party

Enjoy your evening with those tory chums W.

I claim the prize for guessing the subject of conversation!

Boris Johnson's government from 2019 has been defeated on ten divisions in the House of Commons. It lost its working majority on its first sitting day of Parliament and was defeated on its very first division. Johnson became the first Prime Minister this happened to since Lord Rosebery in 1894.

Quaff a few tinctures over that .......

The reality I was referring to was the knowledge that people had acquired in the last 3 years. Not what lies ahead.

Democracy is not being destroyed. Referendums have no traditional place in our system of democracy and always depend on Parliament, firstly calling them and then interpreting what the result means they must do. The way Parliament is responding to this crisis is actually a triumph for our democracy. It is demonstrating, beyond any doubt, the supremacy of Parliament over the executive. I realise just how frustrating the successive delays are but there is a bigger principle at stake even than Brexit. Which is Parliamentary democracy itself.

If leave was the choice of the people in another referendum what would happen next would depend entirely on the terms on which Parliament decided to hold it. So no-body yet knows the answer.

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 know as well as anyone, they would find a way to obstruct leaving as they have been for the last 3 years......more votes until they get what they want...REMAIN.....I would prefer remain as it would make my life easier but the democratic vote was LEAVE so we should LEAVE. (even if YOU dont like referendums) It was only called because the arrogant t***s in charge (Cameron and friends) were convinced remain would win......big mistake...then he ran away to hide.....leaving others to clear up his mess

The Federal Reserve is daily
pumping BILLIONS into the US markets to keep them afloat. The system that imploded in 08/09 is once again needing help............on a grand scale!

Brexit is bloody irrelevant in the grand scheme.
