Prorogation - Judgment Day:10.30am Tuesday 24/9/19

[bluethrunthru]

Here we go

Toby Young is a bag of piss and wind who's opinions are invalid in the real world. I take great pleasure watching him and his like squirm over this - imagine, the Judiciary, Judges, the Old Boy Network and all that things that they assumed they had in their back pocket are turning against them.............they are that out of touch

 

[aguerrrroooooooooooo]

"BORIS DID BREAK LAW" is how the Mail on Line is reporting it ATM.

*picks self up off floor*

 

[west didsblue]

Never expected it be unanimous

Me neither.

There's literally nothing the government can say to minimise this.
They'll try though.

 

[Rascal]

Only if he feels he didn't act in good faith and in accordance with the legal advice he received.

If he is honourable he will resign, if he isn't he will not.

It is very damaging to him as it stands.

 

[bluethrunthru]

Only if he feels he didn't act in good faith and in accordance with the legal advice he received.

Thats going to be the blame game amongst them now - pleading ignorance and blaming bad advice. All the messengers are going to be shot - ditches will be full of them whilst the smarmy bastards at the top try and weasel out of things.

 

[Neville Kneville]

Some braincell is currently shouting over interviews outside the court with 'we love you Boris' & booing everyone.

This guy presumably wants an end to Europeans interfering with the powers of our Parliament....

 

[aguerrrroooooooooooo]

I, Jacob Rees-Mogg , do swear that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, her heirs and successors, according to law.


That is the oath he swore when he became a Privy Councillor. He lied to the Queen on Johnson's behalf.

He has to resign too.

This isn't gonna happen. Johnson and co will sit tight and try and force through their no deal brexit

 

[George Hannah]

If he is honourable he will resign, if he isn't he will not.

It is very damaging to him as it stands.

I agree, he has take his responsibility as the instrument of unlawful advice.

Morning Star - Len McCluskey to replace Johnson

Corrected

 

[Mike D]

Very funny and @worlseyweb what are you going to tell us next it's okay for Johnson to break the law because he was doing it to honour the result of a non binding referendum.

 

[nmc]

"You can come back to the park another time, but tomorrow you have to go to work"

Johnson has deffo been banging Laura.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Only if he feels he didn't act in good faith and in accordance with the legal advice he received.

The court just picked through the evidence that they did not act in good faith and found against the government.

The government put up no evidence to suggest anything else. The meeting with the queen and who was present was called out in specific detail.

The inference is clear....

Thats going to be the blame game amongst them now - pleading ignorance and blaming bad advice. All the messengers are going to be shot - ditches will be full of them whilst the smarmy bastards at the top try and weasel out of things.

I imagine Cummings will be advising him to do it again.

 

[Mike D]

Johnson has deffo been banging Laura.

Its **** and a heart beat that fucker would

 

[Don Karleone]

Parliament reopening tomorrow, at 11.30 am

He needs a Glockenspiel;-)

 

[cibaman]

It would be interesting to be a fly on the wall the next time Johnson meets the Queen

 

[Rascal]

Interesting stuff from the Speaker.

Made sure that he said Parliament is not recalled but resumed.

Recall is in the hands of the PM, resumption is in his following the Supreme Courts decisions.

 

[nmc]

The Govt's case was weak and they knew it - that was why they presented no evidence, no written statement , no ministerial witness - as John Major pointed out that was either because they had no case and as a result nobody from the Govt was prepared to perjure themselves.

Secondly their legal team concentrated on the argument 5 weeks wasn't unusual - to such an extent they were visibly rocked when one of the judges asked in that case what is to stop a PM for proroguing for a year or two years. They literally hadn't anticipated that question and so had no answer. Its speculated that the obvious answer would be that Parliament exists to call the PM to account but of course a Parliament that was just prorogued for two years can't do jack shit.

Ultimately if you consider those points they were always on a loser.

They also appointed Lord Keen who frankly having lost in Scotland was utterly useless in the Supreme Court.

 

[Ban-jani]

Maye we are seriously underestimating the incompetence of the Tory leadership. They prorogued to stop rebel anti-no deal legislation, it didn't because they allowed enough time for it to be enacted anyway- but the prorogation then went ahead completely unnecessarily. There is little doubt they would have recessed for the conferences in any case. Total stupidity.

The media, Cummings, Johnson, suspending parliament, lying to the Queen... it all absolutely stinks of fascism.
