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

Nice to see Bercow getting his cummupance today, and its a mark of the man that he was still squealing about it. For those who despise the Bojo government,there stands the man who delivered it to you.

Not seen that. What sort of karma did he get?

There's a nice Karma moment coming soon.
The Russian outrage has shown up the lunancy of Europe, putting its eggs into Putins basket.

So we now need that energy review to step up a few gears.
We have the capacity to extract more gas/oil, to be exporting that to the EU, now they are going to be short. Maybe the tone will change somewhat,
A review published in March 2020 by Warwick Business School of previous studies concluded that UK fracking could produce between 90 and 330 billion cubic metres (bcm) of natural gas between 2020 and 2050. This would represent between 17 and 22 per cent of projected cumulative UK consumption over that period.

This will upset the green zealots, but needs must

Another bell end who thought he could do what he liked and manipulate something above his station. Karma indeed

Ta TTR. If he'd stayed with the Tories he'd never have been expelled by the Labour Party

I don't care what party he was with Maddy.
He was a snivelling, bullying snake.
As house speaker, he was supposed to be neutral and strong. He abused the position and made his association with the Tories untenable. He jumped, before pushed.
Corbyn nominated him for a piership. He thinks he's been hard done by.
A mirror and a good look into it would help.

Basically banned from parliament for being a lying bully. And good riddance tohim, Lindsay Hoyle is a much better speaker and still brings personality to the role without resorting to self agrandisement

And by that statement, the case for the prosecution that your judgement is flawed is proven M'Lord!

Hoyle is a better speaker? What?

A speaker who does not call Ministers to account and demand they apologise when its clear they have misled (lied) to parliament? On multiple occasions when there is absolutely no question they have told lies!

On that one point alone he fails any sentient persons test! because if ministers are allowed to lie in parliament then that institution is in dire straits.

But then its obvious that being devious, lying and distorting facts is something some posters on here agree with, whilst of course attempting to portray themselves as the guardians of fair and proper judgement! So no surprise there at all!

[swaledale]

A nakedly corrupt and evidently narcissistic leader, surrounded by a phalanx of accommodating acolytes, enriched his supporters with liquidised public assets and spurious government schemes, flagrantly broke international treaties, trashed domestic political standards, systematically flooded social media with fake news, used his power over the press to spread disinformation over many decades, sought to destabilise the EU, had fruitful meetings with far right figures in Europe and America, weaponised nostalgic nationalism, and allowed refugees to be used as cannon fodder in an ongoing border dispute. But now is not the time for Keir Starmer to call for Boris Johnson’s resignation.

Oh and for the petty nit picking ****ers on this Forum, this was by Stewart Lee the comedian, just in case Mr Faber wets his pants over the source.

Nice bloke, Lindsay Hoyle...much prefer to spend time with him than Bercow...but as a ‘Speaker’...no contest...Bercow every time, imo.
Could always bring back Betty Boothroyd...best of the bunch, again imo, and still only 92.

On the subject of being ‘banned from parliament for being a lying bully’...now is not the time...but hardly unprecedented actions are they.
