I can't get the previous thread to update in the index. No idea why. So here is a new one. The two old threads are still there and searchable, nothing has been lost. Please do not take your inspiration from the House of Commons... keep discussion civil and respectful. I would like this thread to be informative rather than argumentative. Obviously there are different points of view but please express them without denegrating anyone who has a different opinion to your own. Most of the arguments on the old threads just go round and round in circles and are completely pointless. If you oppose what someone says please don't think it's your duty to post a response even if you have nothing new to say. Let people read the thread and they will make up their own minds, that is far more powerful, you are not going to change the mind of the poster you are arguing with. Please don't post links or images as a post unless you express an opinion to go with them. If we want that will stick to Facebook or Twitter. Thanks.... Steve

Will Boris throw the DUP under the bus, and does it matter if he does?

Junker has said there will be no extension. It really is Noel Edmonds time for Parliament...

But it's not his decision, it's up to the 27 member countries.

Will Boris throw the DUP under the bus, and does it matter if he does? All that really matters to Boris is securing their 10 votes in any upcoming parliamentary divisions! Everyone has their price. In the DUP's case about £10 billion of UK taxpayers' money I've not heard that but I do know the divorce bill is now a realistic £33 billion not the £89 billion the Remainers wanted the UK to pay. Within that context, if NI ( not the DUP) gets £10 billion that's money well spent.

Johnson is a shallow thinker and congenital liar. He's been sacked from at least two jobs for lying. Having said that, he's fortunate in the poor quality of the leaders of the opposition parties. Corbyn is even more utterly unfit to be PM than Johnson, Swinson is out of her depth and Blackford is a windbag. Saturday could be a complete farce. .

Saturday could be a complete farce. .  Good to see some accurate prediction here! And so, Johnson is now insisting that the law does not compel him to obey the law. Just deliver on the result of the referendum!! The public are sick of it, and so are the EU.

Just deliver on the result of the referendum!! The public are sick of it, and so are the EU. Johnson comes back with a deal. Presents no economic assessment, does his best to prevent parliament from scrutinising and parliament quite rightly says "hold on". You would take more care buying a used car than Johnson wanted parliament to take over his new worse deal. The public may be sick of it, but that is no reason for parliament to abrogate its responsiblilities to the nation. Like Parliament will make a fair and reasoned assessment............That is like Wishing for Unicorns! I don't see how a deal that gives the UK more freedom from the EU than May's deal is a worse deal. Parliament's most important responsibility to the nation is to uphold Democracy by delivering on the result of a national plebiscite in a timely fashion......Epic Fail on that score. Time for a GE !
