Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

Corbyn and the Labour party don't know what the right hand is doing from
its 'left' hand, they know that in the Labour heartlands, NOT THOSE IN THE
ISLINGTON CHAMPAGNE SOCIALIST SET, but those in traditional Labour
heartlands, where the Labour party no longer represent their voters, and
thats why Labour are in turmoil.
They want to give the impression that they now understand the worries of
the voters and will carryout the wishes of their voters, but their true colours
and an inability to have a joined up plan that keep changing from one day to
the next keep showing that to be a false premise, and they will try to stymie
the process of the negotiations at every opportunity.
They took Labour voters for granted in the past, but it now looks like the
voters have had enough of their representatives who think they don't know
what they voted for in the referendum, and thats where UKIP come in.
Haystack states that "There may be a few more who are in remain area's"
Yes like that individual Owen Smith who believes he knows better then his
voters, who in his constituency voted to LEAVE, but he now intends going
against their wishes and not vote to trigger article50...Pity there's not a
by-election in his constituency..

And now we have T Maybe trotting off to the USA to become one of Trump's barbie dolls to save the UK from post-Brexit chaos.
Congratulations.

grannyboy , Owen Smith is in danger of losing his safe Labour seat at the next general election which ever way he votes.
Wales like the north of England have had enough of the clowns running the Labour Party and are deserting them in droves.
IMO Labour will abstain on the Article 50 vote with just a few of their loonies voting against.

Dil, agree he deserves to lose his seat, these champagne socialist are
still in denial, and have no affiliation with those who they seek their votes
from, and thats the Labour party in general..

Maybe 50 Labour voting against. The rest voting for. Corbyn has agreed to 3 days debate. The real problem is the Lord's. There are no set timetables for amendments.

Didn't St Theresa say she would create a thousand new peers to outvote the present lot if they played up?

That would be the only way. The use of the Parliament Act requires a wait of a year. That would put A50 back to 2018.

Being thick here but was't there a thought that if the Lords didn't vote it through , they would be seen as going against the will of the people and there could be moves to remove the House of Lords . Sure I heard one Lord actually say this on c4 on the night .

That would require 2/3 majority in Commons. Very unlikely. The use of the Parliament Act to force it through would also take a year.

If the Lords voted it down then a General Election would be called, and
once the Tory's won a large majority, with the help of UKIP winning between
around 70-100 seats from Labour, the Lords would then be subject to a
serious re-organisation..IF NOT SHUT DOWN,,,,LOL!

Corbyn has announced today that he wants a three line whip on voting for A50. Expect some resignations from his front bench after vote.

I believe she is an associate of Hyacinth Bucket in the flower power movement. Could be wrong.
