Just more unnecessary yays and nays, pointless arguing with nothing decided. Ridiculous!

Problem is, no one is seeing past Oct 31st. The more these MPs keep trying for delay, the more they risk having decent opposition in next election.
Whether you like his motives or not, at the present time Johnson is commanding a MASSIVE percent of public voting intention. The opposition could be dealt a massive blow that could take decades to recover from.


There's a lot of MPs who can expect a P45, and rightly so.

Mine lost all credibility a few years ago and fortunately for him, he's decided he's not standing next time. Which should be interesting on which party gets voted in as historically, its a close run thing between 3 parties.

To be honest, they are a lost cause here  but they keep on believing roflroflroflrofl They've never really got above 2500 votes and in fact UKIP beat them in the 2017 election without trying. I wonder if they've found a tax write-off for losing election deposits thinking

Some of them still have some integrity left. Caroline Flint is a remainer, but she's gone on record as stating that she'd back a no deal Brexit, rather than stay in the EU. I may not agree with her politics, but I respect the fact that she's still representing her constituents, unlike many of her fellow MPs. 

 

As far as the Lib Dems are concerned, I think this journalist nailed it:
