No confidence vote against TM as party leader

[JohnD]

You werent offering information.

Countering the silly suggestion that an organisation that allows people to hold office without being elected, is unlike the UK.

But it is exactly like the UK.

Where is the "complaint" you hallucinated?

 

[noseall]

I also have children, family and friends that I care about. I'd like to see the UK prosper and not be part of some Tory or Labour bickering power struggle at a time when the UK needs sensible politics.

But I thought you voted FOR Brexit?

 

[noseall]

How about some daily mail headlines -ironic that somebody who purports to hate the Mail, spends his time quoting from it

Where is the irony in that? Quitters all hate Brexit, yet.....
Ho hum.

Ho hum.

Yet they read the daily mail.

And JohnD is clearly addicted to it.

Yes I see what you mean

But I thought you voted FOR Brexit?

You thought right

 

[Doppleganger]

He doesn't.

He sits in the House of Lords.

Did you not know that?

Yes, I did know that, but YOU DIDN'T, as you clearly stated

He is a member of parliament.

Did you not know that?

Not very good at this, are you.

So, as I previously asked, IF he is an MP (MP means MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT) what constituency does he represent?

Oh dear. Pedantry at its best.
BAS said

He is a member of parliament.

He did not say, "He is a Member of Parliament"

Now if Parliament consists of the two Houses, then clearly Members of the House of Lords are also members of Parliament, but not Members of Parliament.

If you fail to understand the difference think of someone called Joy. Clearly she is not joy, but she is Joy.
Similarly, Sally is Sally, but she is not a sally. Prudence is Prudence but she is not prudence, etc, etc.
However, if your name is Dick, both could apply.

Peoples' Vote takes a step nearer to becoming a reality.
"The Electoral Commission has told BBC News it has "contingency plans in place" and is ready "to respond quickly to any unscheduled poll". https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-46426380

 

[JohnD]

No, you said

What constituency does he represent ?

You didn't say

IF he is an MP (MP means MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT) what constituency does he represent?

 

[Doppleganger]

Elected?

• Lord Carrington
• Lord Young of Graffham
• Baroness Amos
• Lord Robertson of Port Ellen
• Baroness Scotland of Asthal

 

[Ihavenojob]

No, you said

You didn't say

If I didn't say it, how did you quote it?

Nobody said it was 'unlike the UK' -you made that up yourself

Perhaps you've been hallucinating again.

 

[Doppleganger]

Nobody said it was 'unlike the UK'

Bodd's inference was abundantly clear that the EU are an "unelected lot" and that a government should consist solely of elected representatives.

The EU lot who's unelected.

John quite rightly countered that silly suggestion that any governing organisation is purely elected.

But it is exactly like the UK.

Thus the "suggestion" was an inferred suggestion.
