I'm not your mate

So this whole affair for you is about Vote Leave and Boris, isn't it. People didn't vote for Vote Leave, they voted to Leave the European Union. Vote Leave was not in charge of the country and never has been. Vote Leave and Stronger In were nothing more than campaigns promoting an option, not the choice itself.

People from all backgrounds, all walks of life, all political loyalties, national loyalties and identities, voted to leave. People who listened to Leave.EU voted leave. People who listened to Grassroots UK voted leave. People who listened to Labour Leave voted leave, and there are even people who listened to neither and still voted to leave.

You're like a stuck goddamn record (TORIES!)

A deal that their friends in the EU has presided over and helped reach with the UK.

Something tells me that they don't have as much respect for the EU as they like to pretend. Why else would they doubt a trade agreement that the EU helped negotiate.
 
Has nobody thought of the consequences for our eurovision song contest entry next year? No mention of this in the deal, and I expect a lot of Brexiteers blindly expect our entry to go ahead as normal, whereas whoever wins the chance to be our 'song for Europe' will now be forced to apply for visas and take out health insurance. Also I can see Scotland wanting their own entry.

Daft fuckers will probably think we can't enter anymore.

exactly, if the EU are happy to do business with us on these terms then surely if you want to do business with the EU and have a good relationship with them you'll be happy we've reached an amicable arrangement with them? Why on Earth you'd want to vote against your EU brethren to spite Boris Johnson and make the lives of your constituents much worse as a result as some sort of self-indulgent ideological gesture is beyond me.

It is a deal that has been approved by the EU.

Yet for some reason the SNP, who wants to retain close ties to the EU, are spitting in the EU's faces by not agreeing. It is a very weird decision. An abstension would make much more sense and be inkeeping with their whole attitude about brexit, but to reject the authorisation of a deal the EU agreed?

Very odd stance, I also see they've been dragged on twitter because of it.

It's just nauseatingly simplistic thinking to suggest that the entire movement of independence is solely based around Boris and Vote Leave; like the concept wasn't established in the 70's.

Lost all respect for the Lib Dems. Leaves me without a party to consider, but hey ho, politics has gone to fuck in this country anyway.

I’m thinking Starmer but as quickly as he’s saying stuff I respect, there’s a Labour MP being a completely moron in the House of Commons.

Might actually abstain for once but there’s a long time to go.

My thinking too.

Starting to understand what George Carlin meant. I'd have to see which parties moved furthest away from "Brexit" issues.

Exactly,re the politics.

Far too many self serving politicians,of all persuasions,and Brexit and the covid pandemic has highlighted it more.

Yep. They don't care about their constituents, only how they 'appear' to the press.

I'm very surprised that they backed the Pfizer/Oxford vaccines because the Tories did too.

DUP...not a huge shock given we sold out NI and our Union.

‘When Parliament is recalled on Wed we will vote against this agreement. We will do so as a point of principle and not because we supported a no deal option. A free trade deal is better than no deal but for NI this deal does not undo the detrimental aspects of the Protocol.‘
