So it would appear that Boris doesn't actually give a tulip about the Supreme Court, he'll just do it again anyway.
Dominic Casciani on Twitter: "IMPORTANT: Government's submission to the Supreme Court tells judges that if they rule against Mr Johnson and quash prorogation of Parliament - he might just go and do it again:… https://t.co/xtyG17xkra"
From the written submission to the court from the government suggesting what the court may do if it finds the prorogation illegal.

The funny thing is that Leavers, who are better educated than Brexiters on average, will cope with Brexit much better.
Your "winning" means your children will not have as many opportunities as they could have.
Well done. Enjoy your "winning".
A country in which 1/8 new diagnoses of Diabetes are in under 40s due to obesity (as reported today), is, believe me, not on the verge on winning anything.
Well as I didn't suggest there was any alignment to the Nazis, Pol Pot etc it was you that did that, it is you that sounds stupid. Interestingly enough you point to right wing regimes but the EU is most frequently compared to communism by those in the know.
Mildly tweaking the remainer's noses is permitted if not encouraged.
The precise point I made was that nobody knows what the outcome will be left, right, up down the jury is still out! However the majority don't want the status quo and that is a fact.
Of course you present some grade A whataboutery so you can feel like you win.
Again you suggest that remainers are better educated but that is not agreed by experts just the desperate lying about statistics.

I and many others are happy to respect positive (to the whole community) behaviour or opinions that are different to my own. I don't support the misogyny of some religions or the Misandry of some beliefs.
Failing to challenge negative behaviour is not a sign of intelligence, things YOU dismiss as connected with being right wing in your mind are not necessarily bad in the mind of the majority of voters or experts.
Being pro poorly managed or serviced immigration is definitely a sign of stupidity.
Not wishing to be part of an underhand, militaristic,authoritarian, federal Europe is not racist or stupid in the minds of the voters. It may be so in yours but I am happy to respect your different opinion despite you losing the vote and not getting over it .
All change should be managed and decisions of a government should be beneficial to its people as a whole.
I am not sure you can say the majority of decisions by the last 20+ years of governments have made the UK a better place overall.
The 'American definition of Liberalism' just seems ridiculous. I agree sharing resources in pursuit of a common goal (e.g. world peace or the furtherance of the human race) makes sense, but there have to be some rules about how the participants behave otherwise its likely any altruism will be repaid with contempt and abuse by recipients. That is human nature and why we have armies & prisons. So unbounded liberalism is obvious folly.
