It's showtime!

My phone battery is dying, but someone suggested the title to complete a trilogy, and I couldn't resist.  Regard this as an open thread on Boris Johnson, forever to be known as the Unlawful Proroguer.  Britain hasn't seen a political scandal quite like this since #pounds4mcdougallgate...

  3. "My phone battery is dying"

    But as the parodist has said:

    "The Union is dying... and we'll never give up the fight."

  7. I don't know whether to be pleased or not about the verdict. I voted remain and it helps that cause, but I want Scotland to be independent and I don't think it helps that cause. If I were Boris I really wouldn't be too bothered because the Brexiteers will still see him as trying to engineer what they voted for. And as a remainder, I am neither surprised nor especially annoyed that he may have lied to the queen. The Leave campaign was a conveyer belt of lies so what's one more?

    1. Indeed. In fact, if the EU referendum had been legally binding, the result would have been invalidated by the Electoral Commission because of the irregularities in the Leave campaign's finances. However, since it wasn't, the government could proceed however they wanted with its "mandate". To a certain extent, we have to assume that all this chaos is what Cameron and May (especially May) wanted.
