Someone with a Polish passport has a vested interest, and If boot was on the other foot we wouldn’t get a vote in their country nor would I expect one.

If they’d applied for British citizenship I’d of been all for giving them a vote. 

Oh, while I'm at it

Vested interest?

Course they've got a vested interest

She lives, works and pays taxes here

He can only take out in proportion to what he paid in though.

With regards to the polish lady, or indeed anyone, after so long can't they apply for British citizenship?

Genuinely don't know how that works, but perhaps that would be the way to go if they want to vote on matters.

Not a reason to give them a vote now if they’ve gone and took British citizen ship then it’s a different matter. And let’s be clear I’d guess poles are as likely to vote to leave as to remain given the current feelings about the EU in Poland.

Very true.

They were burning the EU flag in November at their Independence Day parade.

Hardly surprising is it as folk who turn out for such parades are very likely to be nationalists

I'd expect exactly the same from folk here who get worked up enough to dress up as St George

What exactly is wrong with being proud of your own country and strongly identifying with it ?

You sound more like Corbyn every day.

at least with farage , may , cameron , milliband , brown , blair , gove ; you kind of knew which way they voted.. 

theres summat shithousey about getting a no confidence vote together , whereby the folk that dont want a deal (because they voted to leave the eu) vote against May , and the folk that never want to leave it vote against her because they want another go.. 

..all while keeping which way you voted a secret like its the fucking coca cola recipe. 

i see you jeremy...

that it didnt work , fuck me... Doesnt inspire faith the shitbag wont stab you in the back because the soft cunt cant even say what he thinks , all while calling you for making a decision either way.. 

fucking bizarre game , id just call him a soft bastard for not saying , on every party political broadcast i get. 

id :lol: if someone challenged him for leader for being an indecisive wimp.

I'm loving the soap opera that is Brexit. Just seen Michael Gove and Tom Watson's speeches in the House today, ace. May on the ropes but still swinging. Brilliant stuff. Even Corbyn has played his part. Love it.

 

Division! Clear the lobbies!!

Never seen Gove in such animation before, he absolutely ripped into Corbyn today, the geek was so angry.  I read he has realised that a no deal is catastrophic and is now firmly behind May's deal. If true (I have my doubts) then that is a turn up for the books.

he also threw his hat into the leadership battle

I agree apart from Corbyn, he is just as completely shite as a leader as May; in fact he is worse. When your approval rating is still behind the worst PM in history despite the clusterfuck she has made of Brexit then no fucking wonder she doesn't resign. They are both self serving cunts.

I'm no fan of Jezzer but he has played his part. Making this whole thing a party issue and the start of his march to No10. Opportunist wanker.  Love it, love it, love it.

 

ORDER!!!!

I wouldn’t describe May as self serving.

Corbyn is as fucked as May. His parliamentary party is split on soft Brexit vs people’s vote. His membership wants him to stop Brexit. He wants Brexit.

Both Corbyn and May are so completely fucked here it’s unreal. 

You'd think that that would be a decent point to bond over with a cuppa. Both as fucked as each other. Neither with an escape route. Jeeeeeeesus.

I enjoyed today, the brexit debates before the vote had become repetitious.

Gove was excellent at the end. I know you wouldn't go shopping for a cutlery set with him, but I enjoy his speaking.

I see jezza has snubbed the olive branch. What a cock.

She might not have succeeded, but she at least tried.

The treacherous bastard opposite, won't be happy until a hammer and sickle flies from Buck House.

That’s just a stupid thing to say. She is the PM and hasn’t managed to even get her cabinet on board.

Corbyn hasn’t had any responsibility to do a deal and has been locked out of discussing options until today. 

The fault is entirely with May and the Tories, the fact that she will try and fool idiots and deflect is a diversion. 

End of the day all opposition leaders have said that if she wants discussions formally, she has to rule out no deal. It’s not an unreasonable position to take. t this point given how appallingly she has behaved May needs to offer something if you wants to receive any good will.

She can’t offer anything because her party would split apart. Corbyn is in exactly the same position. This is called a clusterfuck.

Someone is really going to have to explain this to me. I can only assume that I’m missing something. As far as I can make out...

Corbyn has just said he won’t talk with May until she completely ruled out a no deal exit

Corbyn has rejected the deal on offer from the EU which they say will not change

Corbyn does not believe their should be a second referendum

So what exactly does he think should happen?
