D Day for Brexit

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Kennedy was a sad, sad alcoholic, Clegg an unprincipled charlatan, Farron totally useless with the backbone of an amoeba and Cable is so confused he forgets to tie his shoelaces, but please go on. Ming Campbell? You are joking, right?

Charles Kennedy, Ming Campbell, Tim Farron, Vince Cable and, although no one on here will agree with me, Nick Clegg are all people who went into politics to improve the peoples lot

I'll add a few names to your list 59/60,

Cyril Smith, kiddy fiddler extraordinaire, protected by the Establishment.
Jeremy Thorpe, laughably found 'not guilty' of conspiracy to murder, another one kept out of jail by the Establishment.
Chris Huhne, sentenced to 8 months at her majesty's pleasure for perverting the course of justice,.
David Laws, expenses cheat, had to resign from the Cabinet.
Sir Menzies Campbell and Lembit Opek two more prominent LibDems fingered for cheating on expenses.
In addition the LibDems were fined £18,000 for breaching campaign spending rules during the Brexit referendum.
In December 2016 the LibDems were fined the maximum of £20,000 by the Electoral Commision for failing to declare 307 payments totalling £184,676 during the election campaign.


Will that do to be going on with ?

German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the prime minister said her plan would allow for a "smooth and orderly Brexit", protecting jobs and livelihoods.
Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar, who has insisted any Brexit deal must guarantee there is no "hard border" on the island of Ireland, has suggested the Chequers agreement might represent a breakthrough.
"If the UK is able to relax some of its red lines, then the European Union should be flexible too," he told the Irish Parliament. "I think perhaps we are now entering into that space."
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, speaking at a summit for the Western Balkans in London, said it was good that the UK had put proposals on the table and the EU would issue a "common response" in due course.
"We have made progress," she told reporters.
And the EU's negotiator Michel Barnier said 80% of the detail of the UK's withdrawal had been settled and he was now prepared to start talking about a "very ambitious" trade agreement with the UK.

So it must be a bad deal!

I have met plenty of principled, decent MP's in my time - and those were just Lib Dems.

Ah yes, they will be those principled LibDem MPs who want a second referendum, their principles won't allow them to accept the result of the first one. What more principled act could there be than to accept that the British people have made a decision, and that decision should be respected and acted upon.

LibDem principles eh, you don't like them ? Come inside, I have others. Ask students about the LibDems and principles, straight out the window they go at the prospect of power sharing with the Tories.

Where's the fecking sick-bag.

Principles.

Apparently May went over to Germany to show Merkel her plans for Brexit and ask her opinion. No one in our Cabinet had seen the plans, nor anyone in the Department for Exiting, including the person charged with negotiating our departure, David Davis.

I know we abolished capital punishment a long while ago, but what is the current punishment for an act of treason ?

It's really quite shocking that this can actually happen. One person deciding the future of a nation? Fcuking madness!
