Brexit process

[UndercoverElephant]

You are sounding more like a bourgeois liberal by the day

A bourgeois liberal anarcho-primitivist.

Newsnight reporting that Boris Johnson's neighbour recorded the argument last night through the wall, and Johnson's girlfriend accused him of being "spoilt, and you don't care about anything, not even money." Can you ímagine if Johnson screws up his own campaign and we end up with *unt as Prime Minister?

This Johnson story is splashed across the front pages of all the newspapers tomorrow.

Well well well... What a surprise timing for that.

But hey, you suck it up....

He's brought it on himself though, hasn't he. The worry people have is that he just isn't "statesmanlike" enough. He's too much like Trump. Would a story like this have broken about Hunt or Gove? No. Doubtless he will still win, but the optics are terrible. It just re-inforces the impression that he is prone to gaffes.

[Lord Beria3]

Nonsense.

Trump delivers and that is the key issue.

We are not voting for a Pope but a pm.

rich climate destroying toffs.

gammon misogynist bully tory minister

no doubt wife beater

Wow! That is quite the collection of hatred and bile. That amount of anger is inner poison. It will make you ill.

Have a go at this mornings Telegraphs challenge.

When you look at this picture https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Wife_a ... her-in-Law

Do you see an old hag or young woman?

Or in your case,

Do you see a rich climate destroying misogynist gammon wife beater, or

A politician ejecting a trespasser from a private dinner, which btw, we are all allowed to do.

[UndercoverElephant]

Nonsense.

Trump delivers and that is the key issue.

We are not voting for a Pope but a pm.

Trump delivers? No he doesn't. Where's his wall? Where's his action against Iran? Trump is all bluster, and no delivery. Johnson is all too similar.

[kenneal - lagger]

Before Jo Cox no one thought that a protestor would hurt a politician. After Jo Cox some one bursting into a gathering of any sort and making their way, even only determinedly, towards a politician must be thought of as a possible assailant or worse. On that basis the way the assailant/protestor was manhandled was gentle. A body guard to some one as prominent as the Chancellor of the Exchequer would have decked her to prevent her setting off a concealed bomb or drawing a weapon. She got off lightly.

Having said all that I do agree with her protest and would defend her right to protest but you have to be very careful in the way you go about things nowadays. All the protesting and guff in the press and from opposition politicians is just political bluster and not worth spending any time over.

[Little John]

We are seeing the same guff and bluster on here. It's pathetic.

[vtsnowedin]

Nonsense.

Trump delivers and that is the key issue.

Trump delivers? No he doesn't. ....

Stock market moves from 16,000 to 26,753. Unemployment goes from 4.9% to 3.6%. Middle income tax rate drops from 17.9% to 12%.
Congress has blocked the wall but you can't have everything.

[Snail]

He also exposed the hypocrisy of Germany and other nato countries.
And had a standoff with, er, Mexico.

HE TOOK ON CHINA.

Perhaps most importantly, he was a part of a reaction to the increasing poison of pcness.

Oh oh, he reminded the world America is still the tough guy.

I dont know how much this incident was a stitch-up, but I fear Johnson and therefore brexit could be over.

[Little John]

Regarding the publicized row between Johnson and his girlfriend:

This is clearly an establishment stitch up, likely planned from the outset. There will be plenty of personal muck on Johnson that could have been surreptitiously passed on to his girlfriend to wind her up and cause a row on command.

Additionally, who the hell is this "neighbor" who took a recording through a wall whose auditory resolution was so high that every single word could be accurately transcribed? That, for starters, has spook written all over it.

The establishment **really** do not want Brexit to happen.

.

Excellent point or observation.
It could have been a lot worse. Say a gay mistress foreign national drug addicted spy. Just an angry girl friend? Think nothing of it.

By-election incoming: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-48720176

Usually safe tory seat in rural south wales (Con 20K, LD 12K, Lab 7K). Current MP says he will stand again after 10% of his constituents voted to remove him. "Reluctant" supporter of May's deal, because wants to avoid no deal.

Is the Brexit Party going stand, I wonder? If it does, then the seat is up for grabs for the libdems.

[clv101]

If Chris Davies does stand on the Tory ticket and The Brexit Party also field a candidate... then surely this will be a LibDem victory.

.. which means that Farage and the Tories need to work TOGETHER ...
