No one does. It matters not which side of the political divide of any issue an MP is on. Plus I'm getting sick of the whataboutism that gets offered as an excuse. It's wrong whatever your political affiliations happen to be.

It's not 'fake outrage', it's me objecting to these thugs. As for the rape threats these are the kind of people we're dealing with.

The police need to stop MPs, or anyone else frankly, being surrounded and hassled like that. it's a big security risk for a start. It's an unacceptable way to behave.

Re: Brexit
 

It was the Remain side that said that the pound would drop if the vote was for leave.



What people seem to forget is that the markets will turn a particular direction if enough people are convinced that a particular event will cause the market to turn in that direction. If the pound is thought to go down in the near future, then they are "forced" to sell in order to get the best price before it drops further. That selling is the thing that drops the price and NOTHING ELSE.
Eg On Black Wednesday when the UK was forced out of the ERM, the German Bundesbank, the BBC etc were determined to have the Pound devalued. That triggered a run of selling of the Pound which caused the value to drop. There was no real devaluation, only the fear of it being devalued.


After any fall they simply buy back what they sold for a cheaper price. They make profits out if it.

Probably her own constituents unhappy at her brexit stance.

Re: Brexit
 

Stop going on about the rape threats, that is a separate issue and totally unacceptable - as for people urling and shouting at MPs, it happens all the time.

So you are objecting to this behaviour - Right, so where the hell was your objections when JRM and his kids were targeted ?

I saw nothing said by you back then when that happened, that I recall, I stand to be corrected if you did.

Re: Brexit
 

Indeed If another Jo Cox happens there is nothing whatsoever fake about that..

Re: Brexit
 

She is on a wafer thin majority, less than 900 votes.

Re: Brexit
 

Whether its left or right or someone who supports Brexit or does not there is no place for any type of abuse whatsoever.

Re: Brexit
 

Come to think about it, where was your outrage back when Hugh was joking about shooting dead six MPs, all Brexiteers ???

Re: Brexit
 

If her constituents are unhappy then there is a ballot box to show their displeasure at her don't you agree?..

Re: Brexit
 

It's not the a different issue, it's the same people.

And here I where I called the people abusing Mogg and his kids a horrible little group: https://www.cableforum.uk/board/show...3#post35963023

Re: Brexit
 

It’s apparent that Brexit has caused the poisonous underclass to believe they can act outside the law.

Re: Brexit
 

That's fair enough, like I said, happy to be stand corrected, be it a small outcry back then - probably why I missed it.

It was like this way before Brexit, but trust you to blame the cause on something you totally disagree with. :rolleyes:

Re: Brexit
 

So this morning politicians and the BBC are finally dropping the rhetoric and admitting clearly that Parliament cannot stop Brexit occurring in March whether or not there’s a deal. Former Labour minister Yvette Cooper seems to think that good old fashioned civil war era brinkmanship is the way to deal with this - her wheeze is to propose an amendment to the finance bill (which enacts the budget), constraining some of the government’s tax raising powers in the event of a ‘no deal’, unless Parliament has explicitly authorised it.

There has always been some hate and abuse there in society and there always has been but one you let the genie fully out of the bottle then that is a different thing altogether.
