Bercow bollox to Brexit show.

I watched the voting in the HOC last night and did not know whether to laugh or cry.The poison dwarf was calling up amended amendments to amend a previously amended amendment I to amend amendmentH which was to be used to block a previously amended motion.What the hell does all that mean! How do they keep track of all this Whyte?Do these people take themselves seriously?John Cleese could not have done better!How much further can the remainers go with this crap? I am sorry for any typing errors but computer keeps over riding me. Yours in despair. Donkeyman

Please read, study and inwardly digest: "The A, B, C, of Chairmanship" - an excellent little book written by Walter Citrine.

John Bercow should have been fired years ago over his sexual harassment claims.

His Mrs is no different .... "Sally the Alley"....

Re: Bercow bollox to Brexit show.

Well it all lost me when they started voting against things that are lawful and then started voting against what they had previously spoken for. One man ended the debate trying to persuade them to for it then voted against it himself. I think they've lost the plot and don't understand what it a law cannot be voted down.

Stephen Barclay I think and labour voting against their own policy of a second referendum.

What a complete mess

Re: Bercow bollox to Brexit show.

Bercow, the Remain loving, Labour-supporting pygmy, doesn't know the first meaning of impartiality. He is an utter embarrassment to Parliament. He is like a boil attached to his little throne that refuses to be lanced.

Only yesterday, he caused uproar in the house when he refused to acknowledge an amendment from Brexit supporting MP's to take a Second Referendum off the table forever. This amendment had the backing of over 100 MP's and the signatures from three different parties. but he chose to ignore it. however, he accepted an amendment from Labour Remainer Caroline Flint to call for a second Referendum - with even less backing her amendment.
Apparently, there was uproar, with MP's standing up and as good as telling him he is breaking century old tradition of impartiality and the good of Parliament. Do you think he cares? The little ........50p in the swearbox.

Re: Bercow bollox to Brexit show.

I watched the whole debate yesterday and found it fascinating.
There was a big row when the amendments were first announced. Mark Francois (leave Tory MP) questioned why an amendment to which he was a signatory along with over 100 people from a number of parties wasn't selected and what was the criteria for selection. Bercow managed to talk his way out of it,he does have the final say .


ETA Sorry to repeat you SG I was posting at the same time as you...

Better than watching kids in a playground, only difference was they were inside.

Re: Bercow bollox to Brexit show.

Hi

I disagree.

House of Commons Rules prevent a Government bringing back a motion that has been defeated.

Bercow has allowed May to bring it back again, been defeated again.

He has the power to stop it being brought back again, he has chosen not to do so.

Why do we consistently blame others , Bercow, the EU, Remainers for the abject failure of May to deliver?

Just compare May with another female PM.

The New Zealand one, intelligent, articulate and brilliant.

May simply refuses to accept anything is her fault.

We deserve better.
