The biggest problem with "Steve Baker" is - who he?

Boris is known and people like him (hugely important, ask Hillary). It's got to be him or Rees Mogg (my preference).

It's motoring today, what any luck it will par the divi.

Not sure about Boris for PM, and nor are a lot of others. My favourite is Steve Baker - a free-marketer. My only concern about him is that he's a touch religious.

Actually, I have more concerns - I've never heard him speak. Must check as I may one day get a vote, and the sooner the better.

There should now be a BIGGEST RIOT and hope someone will organise it in the next few weeks.

[toon1966] 03/4/2019 10:06

grahamite2 - The Conservative Leadership race of 2016, that was their opportunity...

It’s SAD, a once Great Britain has turn into a non existence country! Britain is now not a 3rd world country! It does not exist in the world. This is all Dossy May fault for lying to the citizens. What is the point of holding more Brexit options? No Deal is the one and only option! Why pay more anymore to EU and remain in a Dictator EUSSR! Pay more funds to EUSSR and have no say, no veto, power taken off altogether. Even a non educated politician know this a the worst deal in history! Resign now and let Boris take over or you will find the biggest riot in British history.

What opportunity did the ERG have and how did they blow it, toon?

The PM was kept in place by MPs she had given paying jobs to.

[willoicc] 03/4/2019 09:52

Boris had no chance of getting enough votes from the remain majority Tory party. Getting stabbed in the back by Mr more faces than Big Ben did not change that.

[toon1966] 03/4/2019 09:51

The ERG had the opportunity to put one of their 'own' in as PM, they blew it. I have no sympathy for the ERG.

[grahamite2] 03/4/2019 09:48

I'm with toon on this. Yes, Boris was stabbed in the back by Gove (one of the few human beings on the face of the earth more dishonest than the Prime Minister) - but if you're not tough enough to withstand a blow like that, it raises questions of your fitness for high office.

Bottled and shafted!

Just a shame that Boris Johnson bottled it when he had the chance to become PM, it could have been oh so different...."

Bottled it?

He got shafted by Michael Gove.

Lovely day here.

Pity we got a leader with a dictator mentality.

Pity we have a deceitful pile of FAECES parliament

May Elections coming. Vote BREXIT Party..

LEAVE and WTO"


We are in Spring, heading into Summer.

Weather is going to be very conducive to rioting, civil disorder n'est ce pas.

"Katylied,
Whats with Nick Boles? He resigned from his local Tory party so as to avoid a no-confidence vote. Strangely after that, he was still a Tory party MP. So yesterday he resigned from the Tory party, making a speech that seemed like a plea for victimhood. He has crossed the benches. To which party? Has he joined Soubry in the CUKs party? Surely about time Dominic Grieve did the same..."


Why are none of them holding byelections?? As Reckless and Carswell did.

"The Sun reveals nine of ten Brexit voters feel they’ve been sold out by the government’s handling of Brexit. That’s because they have. A Com Res poll found that two-thirds of Brits, Remainers and Leavers feel the same. 60% say their faith in politics is at an all time low. Most significantly, out of a choice between yet more delay and leaving now without terms, a majority (57%) favour the latter"

9/10 of 17.4m voters.

That's going to be quite an unruly crowd even if only 10% are radicialised!
Or 5% for that matter.

Who's pulling her strings, who are the faceless officials at no.10 working behind the scenes writing her speeches and who is behind them? Powerful and dark forces at work to overturn democracy. Don't believe she's acting alone"


A very good question...

I have my suspicions...But it isnt the usual suspects, who will no doubt get blamed, who usually get blamed.

May will be formidable from now on.
She will warm to this situation, she will sleep tonight"


You're a bit of a dreamer aren't you....


"They wanted her out, but she will probably deliver Brexit, and is prepared to take on her own party in her final months/years.The majority of the country will be supporting her, especially the young"


"the majority of the country will be supporting her" "

What you smoking sunshine?

WBecki,

I am really glad you highlight the link is to an article from 2016. You dismiss it because it is nearly three years old. For that reason you should acknowledge the referendum needs updating with a 2019 public vote.

As members of the EU we would retain our veto and this includes using that veto to block any attempts to remove the veto.

Clearly you believe that today there is a stronger case for leaving the EU than in 2016. I believe that remaining in the EU is in our long term national interest. Lets put it to the test and have a legally binding public vote.

Goldpig"



How are the two comparable???

One is a news article,the other was a democratic vote, on record turnout.
Where were you when we were denied such for 41 years btw???

My links point to ALL EU members losing both Veto on taxation(Poor Ireland) and Foreign Policy. All EU members. Your "veto on blocking the veto" drivel is farcical, and will be factually incorrect

QMV is coming, Vetos on way out. Nothing any nation can do about it.
And the reason is Federalism.
Federalism is needed for EU to survive all its current contradictions.
And the Veto will get in the way of such.



"Clearly you believe that today there is a stronger case for leaving the EU than in 2016. I believe that remaining in the EU is in our long term national interest. Lets put it to the test and have a legally binding public vote"

We've already done that. The result was conclusive. LEAVE WON by 1.3million votes,. 51.9% to 48.1%

Just admit you dont believe in democracy unless you get your way.

Because it is clear that is what you believe.

Prepare for the whirlwind that is coming is all I would say.

@Careful

From a Fellow Remainer on why a Customs Union issuch a disaster - and May's WA is a Customs Union for Manufactured Goods & Agriculture.

"MUST-READ from former Remain voter @GregHands on why Customs Union would be the worst deal for Britain - it would give the EU a full licence to wreck our economy"
