Meanwhile here in an office of a large Government Department we are now all on standby to start answering parliamentary questions again tomorrow. Never a dull moment since 2016....

Those pesky Supreme Court judges, looking forwards to tomorrows headlines in the right wing press.

Enemies of the state, 17.4m, take back control, blah, blah.

It'll be some paradoxical rant like "unelected traitors restore supremacy of British parliament".

Re: Brexit Anyone? (part 4) : Tue Sep 24, 2019 12:41 pm  

Close. It's a 'powerful pro-EU establishment'. Johnson will be appointing Supreme Court judges on party lines soon. He'll say that is lawful.

In the red corner we have the establishment, headed by Lady Hale (born in Leeds, went to a council school) and in the blue corner we have the common man headed by Johnson, Rees Mogg, Farage et al.

Yes. The definition of irony.

Like all the important people in the headlines, I also was born in Leeds and went to a council school. I need to get a spider brooch. All hail the Hale.

Well, bog-standard front pages from the usual suspects, "will of the people" & all that.

But the Sun!

Using a play on a catchphrase from a comedian who's been dead for donkey's years!

Anyhow, I have a strange feeling Boris has another card up his sleeve, I just hope those trying to stop the right wing coup keep their eyes on the ball.
