OT. The futures Bright, the Futures Brexit!!!

Blimey Andy...it was only a joke. I think his reaction to MA’s point (5495) would be more illuminating.

Can’t be that nice if he likes Rush...done Derby untold harm that bloke...allegedly.

Is the concept of Zakat so very different from any other form of giving to charity and is it unique amongst religions?
Sure I worked with a bloke once who was involved with one form of Christianity or other which suggested we should all aim to give away at least 5% of our earnings to charity.

Lol at the Rush thing

I'm no longer a churchgoer but when I was (and at a local church) there were many people who gave 5% or 10% of their income to charity, there are some forms for whom its compulsory and I don't agree with that

Joke or not, the Vic is on the case, he texted me to inform me he's taking the question into an Alpha Course meeting this eve.

I await with interest.

I was wondering if Thomas Cook had gone bust after the 31st October, how many remainers would have blamed it on Brexit? Most of them I'd guess!

[Geoff Parkstone]

Whereas now it's merely the thought of Brexit that has done the trick. It must be great for everyone to have a new scapegoat.

Brexit is to blame for Bury being ejected from the Football League, brexiteers were behind the drone attack on Saudi Arabia and brexiteers started the fires in the Amazon rainforest.

I also recall that Brexiteers incited the sheep to urinate in the drinking water supply. One of these days them brexiteers are gonna get an icepick.

Proroguing was illegal says the Supreme Court.

This means Parliament is open for business again and MPs shpuld return and start doing their jobs again.

Oh how ironic it would be if Boris was now to appeal this................. at the European Court of Justice?

[ramAnag]

I'd just like to be one of the first to congratulate Boris on being our new PM.
Here's hoping he gets Brexit over the line on the 31st October, the futures bright the futures Boris!

MoP...no disrespect to you at all...I always enjoy your contributions and the tone you make them in...but forget the Thomas Cook jibes...you really can’t believe in your above comments any more can you?
The buffoon we call our Prime Minister has just made one gaffe after another since July.
He’s just an unstable, jingoistic, serial liar...a wannabe Churchill with very little strategy and even less support.
As a PM he’s nothing less than an unelected disgrace to Parliament, democracy and the nation as a whole.

[Geoff Parkstone]

I think that observation can apply to the entirety of parliament. I think it's time to become an occasional anarchist

Guess what - Marcelo Bielsa is also a brexiteer - no surprise there then ....

At least he's a Prime minister trying to do what the people voted for and I still think he has a chance to get us out on the 31st October, the rest who want to replace him want to stop Brexit, that IMO is illegal. I can't see anyone out there who could do a better job for the people apart from Farage but that's not possible at the moment!

Well...without playing the % game again...what some of the people voted for.

You might want to consider whether a man with so little integrity is fit to lead anything, let alone be PM, but then if you reckon dodgy Nigel is the next best thing I suppose there’s no hope.

The thing is RA the % wasn't a game the biggest % wanted leave. Remainers won't accept it. Like remainers accusing Boris of suspending parliament, what do you expect when parliament suspended democracy. Boris is getting the job done and I can't see anyone stopping him. It looks like the only way it can be done is with a general election and I don't think that will happen.

can we have a retraction of all the nasty things you said about Arran Banks now he's been vindicated?

PS Vic says JC (Jesus Christ) prob a remainer and def not a JC (Jeremy Corbyn) sit-on-the-fence type

No point in going over old ground MoP. You have your view concerning the original Referendum and I have mine.

I think the only way you’ll have your election at the time you want is if Johnson and his ragbag of what’s left of the Tory Party take the extraordinary step of instigating a vote of no confidence in themselves.

To bring about a ‘No Deal’ Brexit now by Oct’ 31st would surely mean breaking the law again but seeing as illegal actions don’t seem to bother this excuse for a PM that wouldn’t surprise me.

Of course, a second Referendum would avoid all the indecision but you’ve already conceded you don’t want that because you don’t think you’ll win...so much - three years on - for the ‘Will of the People’ then, which was never, ever in favour of ‘No Deal’.

P.S. Andy...absolutely not...he hasn’t been ‘vindicated’...he’s been cleared of acting illegally. Totally different thing...ask the Vic.

Oh the irony in that statement

[MadAmster]

You couldn’t write it! After swearing that the Prorogation of Parliament was “nothing whatsoever” to do with Brexit, the government is now accusing the Supreme Court of trying to “frustrate brexit” by ruling the Prorogation “unlawful”!

The government can’t have it both ways.

Either they Prorogued parliament to prevent MPs stopping their no deal brexit, or the Prorogation was nothing to do with Brexit - which is it?

Now Parliament is returning, it seems the illegality has gone. There are those that say Article 50 says that there are 2 years of negotiating and then you leave with or without a deal and that there was no mention of that on the ballot paper. Article 50 also allows for extensions if both sides agree so those saying Article 50 means we are now already out are wrong.
