Really?

 

I'm waiting for Bojo to be found dead in a ditch. Then we can have a new election. Until then he's hoist on his own petard of spite from getting rid of all his MP's.

 

Bojo can have an election when everyone else says he can and not before...

Let's be honest whatever Boris does you will criticise him.  Honest people acknowledge that Boris has done everything in his power to try to get the democratic 2016 EU Referendum result  implemented on 31st October.  The people who supported Boris becoming Tory leader and Prime Minister will continue to support him after 31st October has passed.  Only losers who have no respect for democracy will try to use the 'dead in the ditch' comment against him.

The trouble with single issues is that they generally turn out to be not single issues. Only a simpleton would think that EU membership was simply a question of being in, or out.

 

As Margaret Thatcher said , referenda are devices of dictators and demagogues.

If referendums are such a bad idea then why did 550 MPs vote in favour of holding the democratic 2016 EU Referendum?

When a ruling party loses it's working majority it 's normal to have a General Election. 

And when an advisory referendum no longer reflects the views of the electorate, it is normal to reconsider the result of that referendum.

Another lie Boris told - along with his reasons for proroguing parliament and having a Queens Speech.

 

They aren't half adding up.

No it not and the advisory bit does not matter in this referendum result. It also reflects the views of those of the electorate that took time to vote at the time, which the bit that counts, just like in a GE.

 

Name one referendum in the UK where the result has ever been reconsidered?

How is it normal because we've never had a democratic referendum in which afterwards  parliament has failed to implement the result?

Hilarious.  Are you saying  Boris has lied because he is not dead in a ditch?

Corbyn must have used all the excuses out of the manual, so now resorting to , we don't want an election in december because it will be cold and dark. The poor elderly and students and women that don't want to walk around at night. Think of those poor children as well. (if diane or harriet had delivered that message)

 

What a sorry state of affairs, when there is no government anymore, and the leader of the opposition chickens out because he knows they'll lose (is this really the best the country can offer?)

There was no result to implement.

 

It was an advisory referendum where not only did neither side attract the support of even 40% of the electorate, but there was only 1% between the two options. As I have said many times, it was an act of great political cowardice to promise to leave the EU based on that inconclusive, discredited referendum, not least because every poll before and since has shown that the majority of citizens wish to remain in the EU.

Time to set a precedent to protect the citizens of the U.K. and future generations from the folly of Brexit which offers nothing of benefit to our country.

Sit back and consider what positives can possibly follow from leaving the EU.

Corbyn is an absolute joke. I won't support an election until no deal is off the table, how rediculous. How's about let the public decide how they want Brexit to go with the election. Everyone will know the different party's stance on how they want us to leave so let us decide or does he know he will struggle to win after all that boasting labour are ready for it

You seem to be missing the point that whilst we are deciding, the duplicitous Johnson might be taking us out without a deal.

 

You can’t blame anyone for refusing to trust Boris Johnson

The public won’t be deciding if an election is called and Bozo decides to delay it until after January.

 

That is Bozo deciding how he wants Brexit to go. Very democratic.
