"I see the voting at 16 amendment has been signed by Dominic Grieve, Anna Soubry and the ridiculously-named Guto Bebb."

There are 3 expletives in that statement graham and they are not `has been signed`

[cheshire pete] 29/10/2019 17:10

Why 16, why not 14 or 12 or 10? Why not increase it to 40 on the basis of 'if you are left wing at the age of 20 there's something wrong with your heart, if you're left wing when you're 40 there's something wrong with your head' lol.

Now when she is at the door just say..get out of the way ya fat cu*t. ..

G2 - is it true though that the Tories allow 16+ to vote for their leader? (i.e. the PM over the whole country).

Do you know?

[grahamite2] 29/10/2019 17:00

I see the voting at 16 amendment has been signed by Dominic Grieve, Anna Soubry and the ridiculously-named Guto Bebb.

They know that if this amendment were passed the bill would have to be pulled, meaning no election and no chance of a Parliament that actually represents the people.

These people are true fanatics. They are also traitors, doing everything in their power to harm their own country.

And now it's official: the UK's membership of the EU extended until 31 January 2020 :-)

As a British citizen (the most common type of British nationality) that bestows automatic right of abode in the UK.

Note: I would add those nationals who have a single nationality - excludes passport shoppers with multiple passports. Any posters here; I expect so.

Reasoning - They're mainly Remainers, and seeing as I didnt get my way, I want them to have a vote!!!

If you emigrate for an extended period you should get no say in how your country of origin is run.

[mr.elbee] 29/10/2019 16:32

reasoning and logic are both politically unacceptable these days,Poikka.

[poikka] 29/10/2019 16:29

Alps - "They could also give the GB expats the vote as in most other countries."

Best to accompany such statements with reasoning.

[cheshire pete] 29/10/2019 16:26

5xy #1107 spot on.
The divisions in the Tories over Europe go back a long way and are not going to go away any time soon. The only way to deliver real Brexit is to form an alliance with the Brexit Party. Any Tories who don't like it can crawl off to the LibDems and leave them to fight over the remain vote with labour.
If the Tories try and go it alone, there will only be May's/Boris's BRINO at best.

Drug shortages reflect "broken market" - FDA

In a statement, the FDA says chronic shortages of certain medicines in the U.S. have not produced the expected responses from drugmakers that traditional economics predict, specifically, increasing prices to reflect a supply/demand imbalance aimed at achieving profitable production to satisfy said demand.

Shortage medicines, mostly sterile injectables, were more likely to be relatively low-priced and financially unattractive to produce. Instead of drug manufacturers stepping into the void with more expensive and profitable offerings to fill an acute market need, they have stayed away.



Before Brexit gets blamed by Remoaners!!
What happens in US, happening globally.

Direct from the puppet master:

xx: Ready for the campaign Mr Cummings?
DC: We’re not going to have one.
xx: Really?
DC: They’ll vote for EU citizens and we’ll have to pull it.

xx is a journalist.

The guy who pulls the Tory strings is not even a Tory. What are his motives?

"50 years ago this was not the case and most 16year olds were working."

Quite true Mr Elbee, no-one got anything more than a "basic" education, the good old days eh?

[mr.elbee] 29/10/2019 16:20

I believe Uganda is the only country with an upper age limit[75] for voting..It is obviously so enlightened.

and of course we should be raising the voting age from 18 back to 21 as it was before King Harold got his grubby paws on our democracy.

Youngsters now are mostly students and do not pay NI contributions or pay tax and they are therefore disqualified if I were King.

50 years ago this was not the case and most 16year olds were working.

"Why buy now " cash available, decent dividend, promising return, eventually.

[wendsworth] 29/10/2019 15:52

mr elbee : Wouldn't argue with your 'what-ifs' . Best to wait is my take on it . Have repented at leisure before with Lloyds !

[mr.elbee] 29/10/2019 15:49

Well what if you miss the election rally Wendsworth,and the end of PPI and the end of Brexit and the end of the Labour Party and the return to a soft Brexit deal.?.

Just saying..What if?

So "now" after this confirming election vote seems pretty good to me...still close to NAV and well undervalued by most metrics.

Add £100,000,000 for the ludicrous brexit advertising campaign and £7,000,000,000 spent so far on the white elephant HS2 before we even start on the cost to our economy since 2016.

[crossing_the_rubicon] 29/10/2019 14:51

Since 11pm, 29 March 2019, the UK has paid the EU £7,117,688,428.91. This could've paid for 79 new hospitals, 309,464 nurses, 270,110 policemen, or even the repair of 134,296,008 potholes.

A single pile of what we've paid in £20 notes would be 24.99 miles tall.

"And the cost is rising......"

[ladeside] 29/10/2019 14:49

I honestly don't think a GE will change anything.

Too many people pig headed and stuck in their ways who are unwilling to either open their minds or compromise, as such the battle lines are drawn and they're pretty clear, which makes it all the more difficult for any single party to get a majority and even parties working together in a coalition seems a pipedream.

Brexit, whether you want it or not, has really brought to light what a shambles our political system is in this country and also shown us how utterly useless and incompetent the majority of our politicians actually are..........

If Creasy amendment goes through we will get amendments on votes at 16 and EU nationals. Strong possibility they would pass. At which point Government has said it will pull the election.
