Boris Suspends Democracy




Jonathan Pie - No matter which way you voted, our democracy is looking pretty shitty right now.

And you're an idiot if you think the EU will just stick with that one deal.

The only way they'll accept a new deal is if Boris outwits them and terrifies them and forces them into a new deal.

Although the EU has just said again today that it will not remove the Irish backstop from May's deal, which is what Boris wants to happen, so it's not even willing to change and make better May's pathetic deal, so what chance is there of it negotiating a new deal entirely?

So I'm not being an idiotic in thinking that it's looking certain that the EU wants to stick with May's deal. And why wouldn't it? May's deal is pathetic, and is Brexit only in name.

Jonathan Pie - No matter which way you voted, our democracy is looking pretty shitty right now.

Do Jonathan Pie and you get every angry year when Parliament is prorogued and there's a State Opening of Parliament or is it just this occasion when Boris, rather than suspending democracy, is trying to help save democracy by giving Remainers less time to overturn it? That's what's really got your goat up, isn't it? You're angry that Boris has outwitted the anti-democratic Remainers by coming up with a ruse to carry out the democratic decision made by the British people. You don't like that. And, like the Remainers, you're calling Boris's decision to save democracy from the anti-democratic Remainers "undemocratic"!

Letters to the Editor

The Telegraph
1 September 2019



SIR – Remainers increasingly speak of stopping a no-deal Brexit. But this is really just a smoke screen to conceal their determination to stop any deal and keep Britain in the EU.

Three times Parliament rejected Theresa May’s deal, yet Remainers have never come forward with a deal that they or the EU would support, and they show no signs of doing so.

This duplicitous behaviour has now resulted in the Prime Minister taking decisive action to honour the referendum result, something that Remainers will never accept.

Which is called diplomacy, the art of outwitting, terrifying and forcing your 'enemy' country to do shit they don't want to do.


BoJo sucks at it so far.


Although the EU has just said again today that it will not remove the Irish backstop from May's deal, which is what Boris wants to happen, so it's not even willing to change and make better May's pathetic deal, so what chance is there of it negotiating a new deal entirely?


Why should they try to change things when BoJo has outright proven he won't work with the EU anyway? New leader, new opportunities to change things, or that's how it's supposed to be, except under BoJo. Why bother wasting their time at this point? He's moved his chess piece without even starting the game.


So I'm not being an idiotic in thinking that it's looking certain that the EU wants to stick with May's deal. And why wouldn't it? May's deal is pathetic, and is Brexit only in name.


You are being an idiot.


You honestly thing the EU wins in any way if Brexit happens with a no deal? They would be better off with a deal with Britain. Having a no deal causes a LOT of headaches not just for the UK but the EU too.



But you're too blinded to really give a shit about the EU anyway, so if things are hard on them, tough, right?

Thought so.

Still haven't proven your treasonous claim that Remainers are trying to overthrow the government from a secret location.


And do you even watch Pie? He was against Brexit, now he's all for just getting it ****ing over with.

You should really watch the video, it's likely how a lot of people are thinking right now.

It's not me that's treasonous. It's the Remainers who are treasonous.

And yet he's against Boris's prorogation of parliament which has come about in order to stop anti-democratic Remainers overturning Breexit.

TONY PARSONS Boris Johnson’s brightness is a welcome sight after three years of doom and gloom



COMMENT
Tony Parsons
31 Aug 2019
The Sun

WE have endured more than three years of the establishment blocking, frustrating and thwarting the biggest vote for anything in British history.

More than three years of the liberal elite using any means necessary to kneecap Brexit.


Boris Johnson's positivity and can-do attitude has struck a mighty chord that resonates loud and clear from Land’s End to John o’ Groats Credit: afp

More than three years of democracy being denied by all those pampered, privileged people so accustomed to life going their way.

Today it is not Brexit our country is sick of. It is the relentless negativity of all the miserable sods who have loathed Brexit with a vengeance yet always lacked the spine to cancel it.

Truly, it is not Brexit we grow weary of. It is the bitching of all the gloomy glumbuckets who tell us the fifth-largest economy in the world is a pitiful little land too weak, too feeble, too diminished to stand alone in the world.

The British people are sick to the back teeth of the pessimism of the British establishment.

That is why the can-do optimism of Boris Johnson has struck a mighty chord that resonates loud and clear from Land’s End to John o’ Groats.

His upbeat positivity is exhilarating after the down-in-the-mouth negativity of all those who warn we are doomed outside of the EU’s clammy embrace.

Whatever Boris does now to get Brexit done, from pressing the “mute” button on Parliament for a few days to *withholding £30billion of the divorce settlement — it will be cheered to the rafters by *millions.

This is less to do with *leaving the EU, more to do with human nature. Relentless pessimism is boring.

Emma Thompson called the greatest country in the the world “a cake-filled, misery-laden, grey, old island”. Who wants this negative crap?

New research published this week revealed optimists live longer than pessimists. Looking on the bright side is good for you, the boffins conclude.

GLOOMY GITS

Being upbeat and positive will help you live to 85, while someone who is downbeat and negative will almost certainly be pushing up the daisies by then.

That is why Boris will crush Jeremy Corbyn in any general election.

That is why we are sick of looking at Philip Hammond, John Major, Gina Miller, Dominic Grieve and Anna Soubry, with their dreary pessimism and faces like an undertaker’s slapped bottom.

It has become a cliche that the old battle lines between Left and Right no longer exist.

The greatest divide in our time is not so much between Leave and Remain as between those of us who believe this country has a golden, glorious future as a sovereign nation once more and those who really don’t.

This new Prime Minister has made pessimism unfashionable.

If you believe the best is yet to come, it’s a wonderful life.

A general election? Please, let it be soon! This country yearns for the chance to vote for happier days.

From the House of Commons to Broadcasting House, all those gloomy gits who believe the UK can’t survive in the big, wide world are totally out of touch with the national mood.

In the country at large, the upbeat optimism of Boris Johnson is as sweet as an apple on Christmas Day.

I don't give a shit about Brexit. I just like Jonathan's style. You, on the other hand, are a raving lunatic waving your hands about and spouting right wing propaganda talking points without a single original thought of your own.

I didn't mean you, I meant the Remainers that are working to overthrow the government in a secret hiding place that you've yet to prove by providing a link.


Since you haven't even yet, you obviously can't, which means you lied, made it up despite saying that people know they are.



You really can't stand telling the truth, can you?
