Jo Swinson

You’re correct of course I remember a while back a bluemoon poster actually wished death on someone, anyway as a peaceful bloke I thought it was a bit over the top but those words affected me, I spent a week wandering round town looking for a bluemoon poster to attack(I think it’s called the Liam Neeson syndrome). Luckily I couldn’t find one but I suspect the guy giving out tenners to dead heads may have been Rascal but I couldn’t be sure as he was sober.

So we have to be careful Blue I agree but sometimes also accept people say things they don’t mean or haven’t thought how it will be used for cheap point scoring.

Can’t remember the posters name now though. If he came on here overstating Johnson’s words because he is politically opposed to him it might ring a bell. But no one has the brass neck to be that hypocritical.

What was his bloody name? Never mind it’s really not that important.

Haha the desperate held to higher standards deflection

So if Corbyn for instance said these posh Tory fuckers best be careful the poor may revolt then as he isn’t the prime minister you wouldn’t call him out?

Gotcha

do as I say not as I do

How unexpected

Your argument is humbug I’m afraid, oh shit I went to far

Pmsl

Utter desperation is what it us - quite funny

That’s their right.

Corbyn is pushing for moderation on Brexit and the other parties are taking leave and remain stances.

This is a good thing so people have a choice.

It's refreshing.

Maybe something decent will come out of the current political cluster fuck after all?

I do keep telling myself that there’s at least a proper left, right and centre to vote for now.

It’s still all depressing though.

so labour are saying they would only support an interim gov if Corbyn heads it.

Swinson won’t support an interim gov with Corbyn in charge and says they want someone like Ken Clarke instead.

Sounds like one politicking and another trying to get someone viable in place.

and let’s face it, Ken Clarke is more likely than any one else to get the votes from around the whole house

It might depend on how long the interim government is intended to govern. The Lib Dem’s and SNP want an early election, before a referendum. It’s been suggested that Labour would prefer a referendum before the election, which would mean the election would not take place for nearly a year.

It seems unlikely that Corbyn would have enough support to take over as PM for several months. He would actually have to run the country, bring in a budget etc. It might be different if it’s only for the duration of a General Election. It’s a trade off between Corbyn as PM and an immediate election, or A N Other and a delayed election.

This.

She'd rather see people die of medicine shortages rather than have Corbyn take over for a fortnight, get an extension and call a GE win or lose.
 
Even Sir John Curtis can see her for what she is.

And this is in a pro brexit paper.


Polling expert and political scientist Sir John Curtice explained Boris Johnson's Brexit strategy focusses on swaying voters from the Brexit Party and capitalising on a split Remainer vote. During an interview with Express.co.uk, Sir John explained by taking votes away from the Labour Party, Jo Swinson is handing Boris Johnson a Brexit gift. With the Remain vote split, this could result in the Tory Party winning more seats which would better allow him to pass a Brexit deal through Parliament.

This isn’t a brag and I’m not a Liberal Democrat but I’ve just sat and watched several interviews from her, where she’s been criticised for the revoke position and genuinely, genuinely, I can make a better argument for it than her and I’m not even the one campaigning for it.

Why oh why hasn’t she gone in on the fact of parliament being sovereign and a General Election trumping a non-binary referendum, as the epitome of British Democracy?

It’s almost as if she’s this dangerous predator, that has these powerful claws that could kill the enemy, metaphorically speaking that parliamentary democracy is her side of the argument, and she’s not using it, and sees herself as a cuddly teddy bear.

Infuriatingly stupid.

Stupid is as stupid does. The Lib Dems are the epitome of stupid.

I thought that the people were sovereign and mps were elected representatives who can be removed if they don't do the job that their constituents have tasked them with.
I must have missed something somewhere.

No, MPs aren't tasked by their constituents. They are elected to act , in the MPs opinion, in the best interests of the the country and their constituents. At the next election they can be judged and retained or replaced. During the time of a parliament it's sovereign.
