I just find it rather amusing the outrage and indignation about a man with whom you just happen to have completely opposing political view, who also happens to have an approval rating that trounces that of Corbyn. And who leads a party which is >10 points ahead in every poll.

I'm sure it sticks in the craw plenty.

Of course if the tables were turned, you'd be equality indignant about Corbyn and some alleged transgressions, of course you would.
These accusations of hypocrisy are pathetic. Johnson is a proven serial liar. I dislike Corbyn intensely but there is absolutely no comparison when comparing their honesty.
Maybe the fact that he’s a lying self serving turd isn’t that important to you if he can get one over on Corbyn. Very Trumpian attitude.
 
He's absolutely right and had very good reasons to complain. It was indeed a "revolutionary" judgment converting convention into common law and prescribing new limits of a pregogative power. More importantly the opposition parties invited the courts in to politically supervise the executive by cynically abdicating their own constitutional obligation to allow a GE.
I have more faith in the unanimous opinion of 11 senior judges with centuries of combined experience and knowledge of British law than I do in the pronouncements of a proven serial liar.

As I said the other day, the accusations of lying against Corbyn are like breaking the speed limit by 2mph and murdering a family of five, when you compare it to what Johnson has done.
 
Well that’s bullshit.
Hedge funds don’t do naked shorts.
But they do speculate on forex markets which was what was suggested. The vehicle for the speculation was not specified and it’s just you suggesting that naked shorting is involved.
hedge funds often engage in speculation in the foreign exchange markets as well as bond and stock markets.

You bitter sod. Just because you worked 34 years for a small garden (I've been doing same for 37 years by the way for my 40 ft garden on the housing estate I live on), why on earth are you so resentful of others who managed to get a more highly paid job? A job which you could have got if you were clever enough, hard-working enough, tenacious enough or lucky enough.

Why are you not so bitter about Sergio Aguero, but you are bitter about fund managers? When were you last moaning about how much David Silva earns?

Serious question.

Are you also bitter about not being a company director on £300k a year? Do you hate them as well?

I truly have no idea what you are talking about in fairness.
 
I feel like Michael Oliver refereeing a City game here - but this is just a cynical piece of political opportunism which certainly won't get past the police referral - misconduct in public office for a serving PM is about as likely as impeachment.
That's why you're fucked.
 
Misconduct in public office isn't a problem for a PM? Do I need to explain it?
It would be if he was convicted but that seems highly unlikely given the present circumstances - a politically motivated referall after a 6 year delay and the enquiry outcome not likely for months in any case. So yes please explain why you think it's a problem for BoJo now - he's categorically denied any wrongdoing so whether you or anyone else believe him is irrelevant until after the investigation - presumption of innocence is a legal principle you may recall? In any case, I repeat, what have I got to do with it?

How many times do you lot need to be told? There can be a GE as soon as the law that was passed by parliament blocking no deal has been enacted. Until then, because Johnson is a lying piece of shit and does not have the trust of parliament (even from members of his own party), we have to wait.
 
The real issue is they sadly see it as a way of stopping Conservative PM's is so much Eton etc is seen as a breeding ground so get rid of the breeding ground and we can get rid of our enemy.

Its actually sinister as well as deluded as a policy.
Generally, this past week seems to have bought out into the open some pretty disturbing attitudes and views of some on here

Edit - fuck - just realised that even having skipped a lot of pages I am still nearly a hundred behind

Let's hope it is not more spiralling into a far left desire for all things 70s - I can imagine some on here hoping to see flying pickets coming to a work place near you.....

I think the FACT - ( for it is a proven one ) - that he seems to be almost incapable of meeting a woman without wanting to fuck her - regardless of his ( of her ) marital status is a huge issue for a PM. It makes him a massive security risk for starters - probably the easiest honeytrap in history.

It also shows he has no morals and does whatever he wants. The man is not fit for the office of PM.

Presumption of innocence is a given, but if the investigation shows wrongdoing it should be a huge problem for him regardless of the position he holds, if that isn't the reality then you're truly a basket case of a country.

So the odds on VoC due next week couldn't have happened before Parliament was prorogued? The delay was purely motivated by a Labour cabal tactic to cause further chaos and polarization by strengthening Farage. They know they are going to lose heavily whenever a GE happens but will get a future advantage in the constititional changes left behind after involving the courts.

He'll get his vote of no confidence when he requests and accepts the extension mandated by the Benn act. If he was that desperate for an election he'd get it over and done with.
