Why do we want global influence again? I have no interest in global influence. Why can't we just run Britain well and let the rest of the world get on with its own thing?
Their torpedoes have circled back on them and could easily blow them out of the water. Given that a very large swathe of the Conservative membership, and a very large swathe of the public (of all political stances) agree with him, it's much more likely to do the May/Davidson tendency damage.
Wow, that enormous head must be visible from space.
It's not a gaffe. He mocked the burqa. Millions and millions of his countrymen laughed and went about their day. A few prim gentilhommes got their nickers in a twist. And that's it really.
Absolutely right. And Thomas_80, parroting Muslim Council of Britain talking points doesn't usually result with being on the right side of an argument.
'It would have been enough for prigs like May, Lewis, Grieve and now Davidson to simply say they disagreed with Boris'. Very well observed. Have you noticed that nobody does that any more? It is not enough for anyone to simply say they disagree: they have to smash you into the ground and salt the earth. You have to lose your job and be cast out of genteel society if you say something they don't like. We are not in a good place.
I've not recieved mine either.
Given her reliance on Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill during the recent catastrophe, how could you be surprised?
Theresa May seems to have a particularly virulent case of the 'the policy has not been communicated yet' disease. Obama was the king of this self-deception, but Theresa May is definitely a grand princess. We do understand the chequers plan, that's why we hate it. In case after case, it gives the EU the whip hand. A whip hand which even the EU is somewhat abashed to wield, it seems. Such an abject abasement before the EU is shameful for Theresa May but even more for us, the people she supposedly represents. If she thinks she can triangulate her way around these obvious facts, she has a horrible meeting with reality in store.
I bet you a billion quid that the Chequers 'deal' and all the other things we read about in the press have nothing to do with the actual deal. I bet that has already been agreed between traitor hag and the EU, and is almost identical to EU membership, including continuing to pay them many billions every year. This is the 'Brexit means Brexit' deal that our idiot political class always intended to sign with the EU as soon as they got over the shock of a Leave vote. If I'm right, and I almost certainly am, then the legitimacy of our political system is basically gone.
