Sounded conciliatory to me. BJ came across very confident in the press conference which is reassuring. 30 blistering days to sort out the problem. Hope he can do it!

Not sure that's what she said. More along the lines of "It may take two years, maybeĀ 30 days".

Either way, conciliatory movement from a very key player. Bet Macron had to go and change his tampon after hearing this. Typical Gallic tantrum to come no doubt.

If Johnson andĀ his team had been in charge from the day after the referendum result, we'd be two years down the path of a muchĀ brighter future by now and lowlifes like Gina Miller would never have been heard of.

I agree.......but with May in charge, as she was, then without the intervention of Miller, that awful deal May proposed would have just flushed straight through, so we've got to thank her for stopping that happening

They only thing I could ever thank her for would be fading back into relative obscurity and never hearing from the self aggrandisingĀ bitch ever again. The very definition of pure arrogance.

Yeah, nice one. Wonder if you'd be so elated if the shoe was on the other foot? Imagine if Corbyn got into No 10, and shut down parliament in order to force through one of his extreme policies.Ā 

This must be that "Parliamentary Sovereignty" you lot kept banging on about eh.Ā

It's the same parliamentary sovereignty that ignores the will of voters.

If you play with fire, expect to get burned.

Not the ideal way of going about things, but the situation resembles that at the club.

Something has to give and start to move forward.

Seeing Soubry earlier screeching vociferously was wonderful. The witch.

So if this is allowed to happen, you'll presumably applaud future shutdowns of Parliament to force through extreme policies you disagree with?Ā

Only if the Democratic will of the people is thwarted by MPā€™s

Crashing out with No Deal is not the Democratic will of the people. The people were told we would have a fantastic deal, and there would be no negative consequences of Leaving the EU.Ā 

Also - you're lying. If by some miracle Corbyn got into No 10, and decided to shut Parliament so it couldn't stop one of his extreme policies being implemented you'd be apoplectic with rage, and rightly so.Ā

We know who occupies the Moral high ground and itā€™s not Remainers

No Deal is not the 'democratic will of the people'. The moral high ground is held by those who tell the truth, not those who lie to get what they want.

If MPs didnā€™t like no deal, then they shouldnā€™t have included it in A50.

many allowed it in, inc Grieve

dug their own grave

And the remainers didn't tell any lies did they. :)Ā Ā 

Economic Forecasts are not lies, no. And if that's your only argument in favour of No Deal, you might as well admit you voted to make us worse off because you don't like foreigners.Ā

Eh? You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Please explain what was "included in A50".

They were lies perpetrated by the civil service and the Cameron/Osborne government, they were the biggest lies of all and 9 million was spent delivering those lies to every UK household, thankfully folk saw right through them. :)
