So JRM should be arguing to Remain, as per his constituents?

He could start with sitting up straight....

GB said no more boom and bust. Well he was 50% right.

And lets not forget the gold sell off....

And the pension funds that Brown plundered.

Erm, what exactly do you think Parliament is there for?

Isn't this part of care in the community?

How deliciously naive.

Well I disagree - any and all sensible discussion in parliament regarding the deal to leave the EU has continually been disrupted by members of parliament who are putting their personal views that the UK should not leave the EU ahead of there duty as a member of parliament.

But there you go.

I tend to agree with the argument that if the PM can unilaterally suspend Parliament for as long as he wants for any reason he wants, then what is to stop him suspending it for the full 5 year term and rule by decree?

The convention of prorogation was reasonable but has been abused in this case.

I still believe that what he did only marginally helped his cause.

So you think it was a good idea?

You’re misunderstanding.

While conference season is on, Parliamentary business can still continue. HoL, etc.

Proroguing has shut down all Parliamentary business for far longer than 4-5 days, and “debate” is not all that has been stopped.

I was open minded until I saw the pro-rogue(how appropriate for BJ) of parliament. All that for 4/5 days of debate? I think that was a major mistake.

The gammons love it. Proper English gent standing up for the ordinary man.

You really should lose that chip. It's turning you into a very ugly human being.
