So Phillip Lee MP for Bracknell has defected to the Lib Dems in protest against the Push by Boris. Bracknell voted to leave so what do his constituents think of him now and how can he sit tight as their MP in a different turn-coat colour?
Unbelievable, despicable and a long way from democracy….
What a toad….He should resign now!
Obviously still happy to draw his MP’s salary as well as his salary as a doctor.
Come on Bracknell let him know what you think…. Maybe a voters vote to oust him like they did with the Welsh MP?
Tricky Jon Trickett is going on in parliament with Project Fear, talking about the storing of body bags etc.
He does look a bit like an undertaker. He should know.
Where did Labour dig him up? Never heard of him before. Probably with good reason.
Boy, is he verbose. Ramble, ramble, ramble.
Even Bercow has had to shut him up!
And that’s saying something!
Tricky Jon is a shadow cabinet office minister, and Bercow is a shadow Labour member. So that is quite something…
Two shadows. One having to silence the other. Must have been painful?
Parliament: Stephen Gethins, SNP, says he can’t believe he’s asking the question: does the government believe in the Rule of Law?
But he’s got more than he bargained for.
Michael Gove is replying, and when he gets going, you have been replied to in a way you will always remember.
Isn’t there a Law about us leaving on 29 March? Never mind 31 October? Haven’t we already left? Or am I misinformed?
Gethin presumably doesn’t believe in the Rule of Law himself.
SNP weirdos. Want independence. Under the rule of the distant Nomenklatura at Brussels. Does one laugh or cry?
Defecting MP Phillip Lee just interviewed by the BBC. Towards the end the reporter asked him if his constituency voted leave and he pretended not to really know if they did nor not, mumbling and muttering, saying it was close or something.
Let me remind him, the figures given by BerkshireLive after the result was declared were…
Bracknell votes LEAVE
Votes for Remain were: 29,888
Votes for Leave were: 35,002
Now you know Mr Lee!
And now we all know how you reptiles manipulate and fudge everything to get your way despite the clear voice of the electorate who put you there.
I think “Mr” Lee epitomises why the whole thing has been so mired and laborious, the house is stuffed with self-important slugs who simply want to kill off Brexit any way they can, ignoring the voters and acting as if they were of no consequence.
Cameron has left a legacy of crap and incompetence on a product of the rotten school could manage!
We saw a couple of days ago Corbyn visit Manchester and several protestors voicing their opinions against him.
Thanks to Camerons incompetence we saw a Labour controlled Gestapo secret Police force arresting protestors including James Goddard, who was later released without any charge.
https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/james-goddard-no-further-action-16855681
Politicising the Police the way Cameron did was a catastrophic error. Anyone with half a brain cell would have realised what Labour would do if given control, but it’s even worse than that as people have lost complete trust in the Police and now regard them as their enemy rather than being on their side.
The incompetence gets worse though as the fixed term parliament act now has handed Labour the power to control the Tory party and not allow them to resign and call a fresh election.
This Brexit crisis in Parliament is a direct result of what Cameron did while in office, and I can well remember the posts here criticising his leftism and odd policies. You don’t always realise the catastrophic nature until later but that is what politicians are supposed to foresee.
A minory of Tories – just 20 at a push are now able to hold the party hostage.
May was an appalling PM, but we shouldn’t forget just how bad Cameron was as well.
Thoughtful
The irony of Cameron is that his book is out in a couple of weeks to gain maximum sales – because of Brexit – or not …
The Commons is going to do everything it can from stop Brexit from happening by voting against the government tonight. I wonder what the public reaction will be to their will, as expressed at the referendum, being frustrated.
James
I was trying to watch it but have had to give up – no BBC for me for a bit . I’ll just a bit for something substantial to happen …..
Suicide
Earlier today the BBC website had a report about increasing suicides in UK . It had numbers and said 75% were male .
Yet I’ve just gone to look for it and found it gone off to the ‘health ‘section . It doesn’t give numbers any more – just numbers per 100000 which to means nothing .
The question I ask is ‘why’ ? Now that anything does and you can blame anyone for your own conduct – how come suicide rates are rising?
I do have my own personal explanation but it wouldn’t be very fashionable – some of the responsibility would be laid at the feet of the MSM propaganda but other reasons can be put forward
The BBC doesn’t go into the explanations as I think it is too close to home .
I suspect that the greatest category are (straight?) white males too, and coincidentally that is Al Beebs least favorite category.
Looby
Yes I fear your assessment is right . White male heterosexuals are to blame for everything . However when I read the report this morning young women aged around 19/20 are also most likely victims .
I suppose expectations causes depression and a downward drift if unchecked . I can’t see the aggressive positions the BBC takes on mixed gender issues much of a help to young people ( makes me feel old saying that ) . I’m waiting for someone to offer me a seat on a bus or tube ….
Fed – The bbc has been hard at it, undermining values and convictions held for many centuries, perverting reality with its ‘diversity’ obsession, keen to hype up climate emergency and other disaster scenarios.
It could have brought some feeling of stability, security and continuity into an environment dominated by ‘social media’ and lives blighted by the feeling that ‘everything is up for grabs’, struggling to cope with rapid change in almost every field.
It chose instead to lead the ‘revolution’, keep its elite well-paid, and pretend to care about the payers it is fleecing. With a few exceptions, quality has gone down the drain.
But it will not be held to account. Ofcom are useless as regulator, and the government has ignored the issues raised by the direction beeb has taken.
Let’s see how it fares if it gets the government of its choice: Corbyn’s Labour, perhaps with a dash of Swinson.
There will be much turning over in graves, if that happens, but beeb will blunder on, ever more prescriptive of everything we say and do, perhaps eventually a fully-fledged totalitarian tool.
Fake
It should be borne in mind that all this has been going on in a time of economic growth . It’s hard to know how matters will be when the economy turns down – which at some time it will .
On a more contemporary issue – if the traitor side of parliament passes a Remain act it will need the Royal Assent . Now I’ve been looking up the circumstances under which this can be with held…. one way seems to be if the PM advises it . So it would not be Law …. then close Parliament until 1 November …..
More popcorn
Exactly. This is what I’ve been saying. Today is a finacially expensive farce with no outcome for the Remainers.
The Royal Accent? You mean that weird marbles-in-the gob thing they do?
Fred – thank you for pointing out my smelling mishtake . Having the edit button I have corrected it assent not accent .
You describe the situation better than I could hope to . The problem is that the BBC is the only source of ‘news’ for most in the country. It is not news they are delivering – they are merely personal viewpoints based on the particular lifestyle and social circumstance of whichever Producer happens to be in charge.
Don’t get me started either on the ‘Entertainment’ side of their output . Pretty well rubbish most of the time. The flagship programmes they have destroyed or are in that process. ‘Strictly’ comes to mind.
This was in reply to fakenewswatcher – 5 post upwards – can’t get used to this social media malarky. And I hope I never will.
“Tata: Hundreds of steel jobs could go at Newport Orb plant.”

“What is sustainable palm oil?”
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-49553703
An entire article which fails to mention palm oil’s use as a biofuel to satisfy the eco-zealots. Why you can trust the BBC?
BBC 6pm news. Woman reporter in Scotland for the anti Boris case.
They have heard evidence today that Boris agreed / approved the suspension of Parliament 2 weeks before it was publicly announced.
BBC not surprisingly making a big deal of it , unconstitutional etc blah blah …….
Woman reporter took great pleasure in informing us that Boris had approved this ” Way back in the middle of August ” !! Way back ???? It’s only the flippin 3rd September !! They just love using this emotive language when it suits their agenda !!! She could not hide her bias. But, it’s the BBC , she doesn’t have to.
Turned on the car radio, default on Radio 4, about 5:30 pm today to hear pm news conversation with frequent reference to the ‘Rebel Alliance’. What? Now the remainers regard themselves as a band of heroes battling against the evil Empire with Boris as Darth Vader.
My flabber is ghasted.
Desp, my old fruit, I’m fairly sure you have miscast our hero Boris.
As I recall, back in ’77, the Rebel Alliance are the good guys?
In which case, may Darft Corbyn take it well and truly up his DeadStar(fish)!
And another thing….
The head of the London Borough of Haringey earns more than the PM.
The heads of all London’s 32 Boroughs each earn more than the PM.
The head of the BBC, Lord Hall, earns £500k per year. More than three times as much as the PM.
This needs to change.
Dover
If you really want your blood to boil have a look on the Gov UK website for pension arrangements for ministers and MPs . Can you think who might have legislated generous arrangements for MPs – why – it’s MPs ….
Fed,
I just hope that out of all this fiasco, we end up with some common sense both now and in the future.
I had a feeling we would be seeing Bercow’s true colour in parliament tonight, and indeed we have.
It is red.
Look at his smug, self-satisfied face when he pontificates about his ‘impartiality’, then “coins a phrase”, quoting the PM with a flicker of malice, and you know for sure.
He is about as impartial as the bbc.
Were he not sitting up there in his grand chair, he would have to take his seat with his Labour mates. Like HB.
Hilary Benn is quick to fall back on Bercow’s decisions when he interrupts JRM, with obvious delight.
Bercow is convinced that he can steer this debate with his smooth tongue. If you have a chance, watch him operating in parliament tonight.
Delight in the professionalism and knowledge of JRM:
“SOVEREIGNTY COMES FROM THE PEOPLE, NOT FROM A VOID!”
But Boris will block any proposed anti-Brexit legislation, as is his democratic right. It won’t receive Royal assent.
Game over, Remainer losers. Just as it was back in 2016.
BBC Online News:
“”Can no-deal Brexit be stopped?””
“”Passing a new law that would force the PM to request an extension has emerged as the preferred course of action.””
“”It would usually take weeks for legislation to pass through both Houses of Parliament. But the proposers of the new bill expect to be able to pass all stages and have it signed off by the Queen by Monday, before parliament is shut down (or prorogued).””
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-48519746
Total lies, BBC. That’s your wishful thinking. Expect to have it signed off by the Queen on Monday, do you?
Slight problem, BBC. Boris decides if it’s signed off. And it won’t be signed off.
As a ‘trusted broadcaster’ (you say that yourselves), why have you omitted this fact in your thousand word feature?
Reminder, BBC. The tax payer funds you.
The BBC were reporting this afternoon that body bags were being stockpiled because of Brexit. It was reported on ‘Business LIVE’. Oh the irony. I nearly choked on my digestive biscuit!
Does the BBC think that the public reaction to parliamentary voting will be so bad that remainer MPs will need body bags ? Surely not .
I wonder how traitor May will vote? She turned up today.
Who has brought what appears to be a herd of cattle to Parliament which can be heard in the background to the BBC interviews?
Is this the voice of socialism?
Parliamentary Brexit report on behalf of Ourselves:
Boris lost the vote by an expected small margin. Not surprising when even 70% of his Party is anti-Brexit.
But it matters not. Parliament, in its deceitful way can now create No Deal legislation. But such legislation will be blocked by Boris before it gets to the Queen as he’s the PM. Perfectly legal to do so. (BBC commentators forgot this important blocking aspect for some reason. Are they biased?).
Of interest, Corbyn would not accept an early election, nor would shouty Swinson of Lib Dems when Boris offered it. They wanted No Deal confirmed first. Both realise that a GE would destroy them.
In all, a very good night.
I agree Dover. I look forward to Boris, Nigel and Donald sat at a table discussing draining the swamp. Jezzas going to regret tonight’s charade. And as for Swinson saying she relishes taking on Boris in an election I’ve only just stopped laughing.
Corbyn looked scared when Johnson threatened an election.
On the ‘impartial’ bbc’s R4 news at ten, Shaun Ley (Labour) leads a gleeful celebration of the outcome of the vote with ‘impartial’ colleagues.
Laura K, appropriately garbed in snakeskin, appears on tv news to sum up. She is very much in similar mood. In anticipation, she had obviously splashed out on a new outfit (not a problem for beeb employees).
The following 21 Tory MPs voted against their Party and will lose the Whip:
Bebb
Benyon
Brine
Burt
Clark
Clarke
Gauke
Greening
Grieve
Gyimah
Philip Hammond
Stephen Hammond
Harrington
James
Letwin
Milton
Nokes
Sandbach
Soames
Stewart
Vaizey
Well my tw..t of an MP Alistair Burt, already said on air earlier today that he wouldn’t be standing again in the next election. There is a God !
They are all replaceable. They will have ended their political careers
Indeed.
And throughout it all today, the BBC have been squealing in pleasure as if all their anti-Brexit dreams and fantasies have come true.
Get real and grow up, BBC. You are paid more than enough to do so by us poor people.
I am yet to see any evidence that Brexit is being stopped. Quite the opposite in fact. They have made No Deal more likely

99%, we have the moral high ground, anyone who disputes this is a Nazi.
Best if all White Male Nazis are exterminated, you know it makes sense.
Somewhere in the UK, senior military officers are discussing, which side should we support?
Well my MP continues to be one of the good guys:
Smoog – my MP IDS is also of course – a leading democrat – but many see him as losing his seat as the socialist one party state council has been moving a whole variety of state dependant claimants into the constituency -leading of course – to more ‘police incidents ‘ and police tape across roads in the borough ..
