Brexit - again

#19 Tell me Thomas you seem to have a finger on the pulse of all the bigwigs , but I read somewhere in some woman’s glossy magazine whilst sitting in a MENS barbershop , that Tony Bliar had run off with some big and well known news editors wife and left little Cherie on her lonesome. It was never to my knowledge big time news, how could it be when the injured party owned all those news rights. Was there any truth in this gossip or was it just another sprat to catch a mackerel ? Think it was about the time that our Tony converted to Catholicism, May have been one of his penances in the confessional box . JS

PS Regarding pulses you do know that if you are looking for one always use a finger , the pulse in your thumb is too strong and will block out any faint pulse the patient may have before you throw them in the furnace we should all share these tips, maybe that one should be under the heading of Safety at Sea.. Cheers JS.

Tony Blair handed over to Gordon Brown in 2007, Brown lost to Cameron. So the UK has had a Tory government for the last 12 years. Why have they not sorted out the channel crossing migrant issue. They have paid the French millions and it has gone from bad to worse.
I believe that seeing as we have yet another new PM 3rd one this year. Rishi should be given the full term to sort this Tory 12 year mess out.

#17. Rodney going back to 1967 I went out to Canada and suspect I went out as a landed immigrant status, as I had no passport at the time and went out on a letter off a. Canadian ship manager who was managing an American ship owned by Alcoa , I had to see various doctors for VD tests , chest X rays ,and every other disease imaginable , 24 years later had to do similar emigrating to Australia with the added tests for Aids . Did you have similar at the earlier time you emigrated ? What really annoys me is to see how easy it is for the present day illegal Immigrant to apparently bypass such strict tests . Or do they not want to hurt their feelings.JS

#16 I feel it in my bones Cappy if Van Demon is approached in a proper manner he will lift the waiting barrier for young nubile females who have read the Kama Sutra at least 6 times and would love to explore the wonderuous delights that Australia has to offer . JS

They also forget that remainers from all parties spent the next few years trying to make sure it did not work.

I think once the vote was over, all MP's whether for or against, should have been made to make the best of it.

The Liberal Democrats stated that they would overturn the decision if they were in power. I don't call that democratic.

Frank.

If the Lib Dems gain power it will be via an election with a published manifesto - rejoining the EU would be in that manifesto.

Therefore, if they gained power and rejoined the EU it would in fact be entirely democratic because that's exactly what the electorate would have voted for.

Yes, but Blair signed us up to the Court of Human Rights, which Governs our behaviour towards immigrants and their rights.

Vic

Actually it was Harold MacMillan who signed us up initially, way back in 1959.

Jim, i dont think there is any chance of the liberals gaining power in the UK, and little chance we are ever going back in to the EU. Even if we applied, with the EUs decision making mechanism most of us would not be here to see it. lol

Post 26.
When was the European Convention on Human Rights signed?

In August 1950, a human rights sub-committee was appointed to finalise the text of the Convention and the finished draft was considered in September. The European Convention on Human Rights was signed in Rome on 4 November 1950. The UK was the first signatory to the Convention.

In 1998 Tony Blair Enshrined the UK into the European Convention on Human Rights into U. K. Law.

The only way the Lib dems will get back in power is by being in some sort of coalition with other political parties. If any of the main parties have a manifesto containing a clause about rejoining the EEC they are skating on very thin ice as it is suuch a contentious subject it will split the electorate down the middle and do the same to the two main political parties.
