    I don't think he gie's a fu(k tbh. He can stick down Prime Minister of the UK on the cv and dine out on it till he's an auld (unt spouting sh!te on BBC News for the next 20 years anytime they want a bit of light relief.

    I think he will. His and Cummings strategy has fizzled out completely.

    I confess to having Tory voting tendencies (I know I know) but even I am delighted that Johnson and his crooked cronies have been smashed in court today. It is an utter embarrassment for him but he is too brassed neck to resign. Having said all of that I am not sure being back in Parliament this week will make the slightest difference as they have already passed the key law to stop a no deal Brexit so it will be all hot air until the key date of 19th October when Johnson is meant to write the letter to extend the 31st October date by 3 months. No doubt he and the men in the shadows will endeavour to squirm out of this commitment so we may need the courts to continue holding their feet to the fire

    The way the whole thing is going I wouldn't be surprised if a 2nd EU referendum managed to get pushed through and the result this time was exactly the same as before. Then the whole thing starts again.

    I hope there is another EU referendum but if you are right and the result is the same then actually I think we would leave this time as all the arguments about the last vote being held amongst lack of knowledge would be washed away as this time we would all know what we are facing so MP's would push through whatever deal is in place at the time the referendum was held. For what it's worth I actually think we would vote remain next time

    I dunno, I don't see much buyer's remorse Daan Saarf. Maybe the Taffs might vote a bit differently but they Morris dancing Nigel (unts still blame the EU for all the funny talking foreigners holding this country back from becoming the world force as it was in the 19th Century.

    I don't think they could go back with a straight yes/no again.
    It would have to be "This negotiated del/remain" or "No deal exit/remain".
