I genuinely don't understand what you've written, or maybe you didn't intend to say what you wrote. How can any government permanently revoke Article 50? It's part of being in the EU, and if it's revoked in October to give us more time to chart our course forward, then there's absolutely no reason ...

The referendum question was "Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?". The majority voted Leave. Are you saying that Remaining in the EU is the most democratic way to satisfy the result of the vote, which was for Leave? There are (it se...

Less so, but yes for the reasons already mentioned.

Sound, 100% agree with the "democratic process bit", but there isn't anymore democratic legitimacy for a "No Deal" as no one* has voted for that either. *Yes, I know some of you might well have, but thats not what was explicitly said on the ballot paper or by the campaigns befor...

Absolutely incredible that some people believe it would be appropriate to permanently leave on a "No Deal" Slightly less incredible because as it stands there's more democratic legitimacy for no deal than permanent revocation of A50. That said my view is that neither should happen without...

If a party won a general election on that ticket, what would be the problem? They will have been given a mandate from the public to do that. It's how things ought to be done in a parliamentary democracy such as ours. Because a party's manifesto incorporates multiple policy proposals. If Labour was ...

I think you do it on the basis of what they campaigned on??? (And as I pointed out very early in this thread Labour's executive position has swung strongly in favour of a Confirmatory Vote recently (even Corbyn), so the total now backing remain and / or a People's Vote is about 55%.

Makes you wonder why Corbyn has been so non-committal. I can't think why.

Why the **** do you people seem to think that if you're criticised for saying something it means you're not allowed to say it? It honestly makes you look like ******* babies crying because someone criticised you. Grow the **** up and stop coming out with this dumb horseshit. Or sod off to your safe...

Nope, its a good idea. Course, the people who can afford to do this now are the ones who are currently at that age already, and react very badly when asked to pay for more. and the majority of them are Conservative voters, and a disproportionate amount of them are Conservative Party members. But it...

You said he wasn't worth half that before. He's been one of the most consistent PL players for several years.

Was going to say couldn’t really see Rees -Mogg as a champion of social care! For me it’s Liz Truss someone needs to finally sort out the disgrace of cheese imports another important issue that has been lost in Brexit. No-one said he was a champion. Just that he was recently saying that social care...

Was he? I recall it was proven there were spare seats. If people choose not to use the spare seats and sit on the floor they can't complain about not getting a seat.

bumba wrote:Isn't worth half of what Chelsea value him at

If he was available for £65m pretty much all the major clubs in Europe would queuing up to sign him.

What is his voting history on matters specific to social care?

taio

With respect it has. Do you think a leopard will suddenly change its spots? Just look at his past voting record. He wants a much smaller welfare state and more tax cuts. He might want to direct more money into one area, but that would inevitably lead to greater cuts in others. Of course balancing t...

taio

Yes. This is the same JRM who wants tax cuts for higher earners, and described £4 billion worth of cuts as not going anywhere near far enough. Something doesn't add up. Maybe you choose to disregard his voting records: How Jacob Rees-Mogg voted on Welfare and Benefits Consistently voted for reducin...

You see- this is the bit that I and many others simply don't get. Why would you put brexit ahead of your own well-being and that of your family? It's domestic policies that ultimately determine how happy you will be, and it seems remarkable that so many people are saying, I don't care about my livi...

I think he's our best keeper, it's just so tough on Heaton to drop him after the form he showed. I wonder if this is to potentially sell him for more? I didn't think so when I read Pope's comments but Dyche saying “We have always said we want to be strong in the market and that includes when it com...

Absolutely well chuffed with this. Also didn't see this coming at all.

My thought is I can't immediately think of anything I could care less about.

What's that got to do with it? Are our signings now to be judged on how many other clubs are after the same player? Everything - if as you say many other PL sides would have loved to have had Walters they would have tried to sign him. How many did? No, our signings should not be judged in that way ...

How many PL sides tried to sign him?

Spike wrote:what makes you think we will pay more than WBA?

The club has said they won't pay PL wages until they are back in the PL. Not sure how much Gayle earns but guess £50k a week. As a general point we should be able to pay that for a key signing.

It's just a reality that we would have zero chance of signing Brooks in the summer.

I think it's been widely recognised for ages we'd struggle to keep both Heaton and Pope.

I said weeks ago Howe should come in for Pope and be their number one target.

Not saying this would have made a great deal of difference to Pope's future, but I can't understand why he hasn't replaced Hart on the bench.

And constantly injured which means the club would be foolish to sign him. I'd be very surprised if Dyche is interested.

It was confirmed by the club ages ago that season ticket cards can be used by another person who would fall within the same pricing category. So my missus could use my season ticket legitimately and without any questions being asked.
