Current Affairs EU In or Out

This isn't about forcing through no-deal Brexit. It's about Johnson getting a full term as PM.

He couldn't give a fig about Brexit either way. It's all about his power and ego.

Boris is preparing for an election, not a no deal Brexit IMO.

All these political games are just noise. It's all pretty irrelevant and being blown out of proportion. It's electioneering and it will probably work if the remain vote remains split in about 5 different directions.

Which, tbf, would be mortally wounded if he didn't achieve Brexit.

Was it condemned by yourself ?.....any chance of showing who defended any form of racism ?.....

Yes it was most definitely condemned by me and I'm not going to embarrass those that looked to defend or stayed silent.

woah ! steady on.

I didn’t see anything from anyone on either side of the debate defending the guys racist posts and considering there were at least 2 moderators on the thread while he was spouting his drivel it wouldn’t have been long (& it wasn’t) before he was booted.

Not all those who voted leave are racists, If you meant something else then fair enough but thats not how I read that part of your post and I take offence at any such insinuation.

I'm not sure how you arrive at that conclusion from my post.

Maybe because the tiny part of my post that you copied you completely missed this part:
'He seemed to be an isolated voice in that and there are very few likes of his posts from anyone.'

Being reported that Ruth Davidson is set to resign from the Conservative Party, not confirmed as of yet. Oh dear.

I imagine the Tories are going to be toast in Scotland at the next election.

 

[summerisle]

Won't hold my breath on any resignations.

A second referendum is undemocratic but an unelected Prime Minister closing Parliament in a parliamentary democracy isn't, we live in strange times.
Bretix really has exposed the weakness in British democracy

Time for a written constitution?

Written by @chicoazul would be fun.

...a Tory darling, be interesting if she names Johnson as the reason.

I didn't miss that part, he was an isolated voice, but I didn't miss this part either.......

The worry for me is that it wasn't condemned or called out by any of the leave contingent, it was almost accepted and defended.

Maybe you could explain it in simpler terms what you mean by it as I am not the only 'leave contingent' poster to flag this up and not entirely sure why you needed to tag that on the end of your post other than to have a dig at folks who voted leave.

I am not going to get into a flame war with some unknown person on a forum, but if I think sly insults are being thrown in my direction then I will fight my corner.

The word is, with a young child, she has had her fill. Could be convenient cos she aint a fan of Johnson after he sacked the Scottish Secretary that was a pal of hers.

As I said earlier, I'm not going to embarrass people by pointing their likes of posts or contribution to a discussion on immigration posed by a poster on here who clearly wanted to drive an agenda.

I have never suggested that I believe all leave voters are racist, but I saw very little by way of the leave contingent in this thread expressing any discomfort with any of the posts made by RichardP. I'm sure you can direct me to some though.

For the sake of my headache, can we just all can this "who liked what post" nonsense.

It adds zilch to the debate, and can appear that folk are trying to finger other posters, as it were.
