Gardengirl Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I was pleased to read about that, Alan - he always seemed a decent person, couldn’t understand why he joined his brother’s cabinet.It was also good to read just now that the pound had rallied to a one-week high after the votes against Johnson. How he railed and blustered yesterday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Zoff Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Not really necessary Wooly. The bulldozer he promised to lie in front of over Heathrow can do the job for them. As we know, he always keeps his promises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 What's the betting he might resign? Clearly, he is not up to the job and is alienating his fellow MPs and many more besides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted September 6, 2019 Author Share Posted September 6, 2019 You mean JC will finally understand he aint up to the job or the other one?By the way, centrist PM, Kenneth Clarke until this nonsense is all sorted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolybanana Posted September 8, 2019 Author Share Posted September 8, 2019 As the Queen’s First Minister, surely Boris is responsible directly to the Monarch and not to Parliament regardless of the law passed by the Houses?Which may take us back to Charles 1?

woolybanana Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 As I understand it the UK courts have said that this prorogation is political and therefore not of their domain whilst the Scots have said it is political and therefore illegal.Many prorogations have been political so why not now? Eg John Major, Clement Attlee, William, Charles I and II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard51 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Because its not telling the truth?Different questions were asked in the different courts - did you not get that or did you just listen to Boris Johnsons mob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 Thank you for your usual level of insults, richard. But given you are a JC supporter nothing more is to be expected.I am beginning to think that reading is your problem as well.Doubtless the courts have answered different questions, but the different conclusions give the Supreme Court an interesting moment. I would like to be in the simple courtroom of the Supreme Court to hear the result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Scotland might still be in the UK, but they have always had a different legal system. I am not on firm ground in this particular case but let's just await the results of the supreme court, eh?There's enough speculation and what-ifs in all of the media and it's getting increasingly tedious. I wish they'd just go back to reporting the news as it happens and not resort to endless speculation. Who needs 24-hour rolling coverage? All we need is what's happened or happening to be stated and none of this endless interviewing of people, asking for their opinions which may or may not be interesting/relevant/informed[+o(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
