Any of of that only applies if the U.K. was to sign up to the withdrawal agreement, which it hasn’t and which it won’t.

I disagree absolutely with the above assertions. But this is going way off topic so I'm going to agree to disagree with you there and leave it there. There's enough meat on the main topic for us all.

Hardly. The Lords filibuster was time limited anyway. It was coming back to the Commons tomorrow in any case.

The filibuster was not time limited. The filibuster was on the business motion which was designed to time-limit discussion of the Benn Bill. If they could have stretched out debate on the business motion far enough into Saturday there was a realistic chance of them being able to prevent the Bill’s passage through the Lords and back to the commons before the earliest possible prorogation date which is tomorrow. The supporters of the bill were taking that threat seriously enough to have set up a rota to ensure there would always be enough of them in the chamber to vote down every amendment in the shortest possible time.

Wise words indeed. This is not your usual kind of Conservative government, it's quite revolutionary.

Ahhh - I thought you were a Santaist, and were on the "naughty list"...

Thanks for clearing that up.

Re: PM Boris forms a government

I am back, whinging as usual.
But, l have totally surprised that we are not taking General Election here.

It is totally farcical that the joker Boris is running the country, and that the biggest joker Jeremy - and l am a Labour voter. could be PM. I have been watching all this stuff. And I makes me wonder WHY, our taxes are paying the wages of MPs and are behaving like kids.

They should be saying - we will take it to the country, and let us decide.

Boris, has some henchman going round sacking staff. And Jeremy, has the golden chance to have an election. And he is NOT going for the jugular.

I voted to leave - but that was ???? Now, l have changed my mind why you ask.

A certain Boris, said the money saved would be going to the NHS etc etc. What a liar, and a joker.

I want to remain.

In these farcical political times, it’s strangely reassuring to have Arthur ranting on Cable Forum.

A interesting article by Conservative columnist Simon Heffer.

Re: PM Boris forms a government

An interesting article from a French Official

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...s-things-stand


Quote:
France isn’t prepared to postpone the Oct. 31 deadline for the U.K.’s departure from the European Union “in the current state of things” as British authorities aren’t providing evidence that they’ll offer new solutions to end the Brexit deadlock, French Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said.


It only takes one 'non'
