    I believe that is Neil Horan, a defrocked Catholic priest who made a pest of himself on numerous occasions, running on the track during a F1 race, pushing over a marathon runner at the Athens Olympics, etc. He was arrested at the World Cup in Germany for having a placard saying something similar about Hitler.

    Just exposing those legs should be a public order offence.

    And God said, Let there be Brexit: and there was Brexit.
    And God saw Brexit, and it was an absolute shambles

    The whole thing is really very depressing, however the size of that reporters microphone did made me laugh, a reporter from the FT, they must have dragged that thing out of the deepest basement.

    The last time I saw something like it, John Motson was holding it up in front of Kevin (I’d love it) Keegan

    Remain MP Dominic Grieve suffers no confidence vote
    “Sky news”
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    The man leading the campaign to deselect Grieve is Jon Conway.

    Before he joined the Tory party he was he was UKIP's Beaconsfield branch chairman, he stood for South Bucks council and was UKIP's candidate for Central Devon in 2015. In 2016 he tried to get elected to UKIP's National Executive Committee.

    In 2017 he stood against Grieve as the UKIP candidate for Beaconsfield.

    If you can't beat them, join them...and then kick them out of their seat.
  • imagelostimagelost
    The campaign against Grieve was led by the man who stood as the Ukip candidate for Beaconsfield in 2017. The Times reported that Jon Conway, a pantomime producer, had been recruited by the Conservatives after serving as a regional organiser for Vote Leave.

    It gets worse if that’s possible

    If this true from the daily mail


    Not a word Labour says can ever be trusted again: STEPHEN POLLARD on how Jeremy Corbyn and his party went back on their word to honour the referendum

    If this true from the daily mail


    Is there any possibility of doubt?

    I assume there is a similar piece on how the Tory party failed to get its MPs to do the same...?

    The Daily Mail, a newspaper owned by a Lord who claims non-dom status (inherited along with his title from his father) in order to avoid paying full UK taxes despite spending most of his time living in Wiltshire.

    Excuse me if I ignore everything it has to say about anything at all.

    Let's face it - they all have party and personal objectives, most of which is nothing to do with the outcome of the referendum. Labour just want a general election, Conservatives failed to engage Parliament from the outset, wanting to do things their way. In all parties most MP's put the will of the people well down their agenda. Sad times.

    They won't get them.

    Tory party rules are that there can only be one leadership challenge in a 12 month period. They tried in December and failed so unless Theresa resigns they can't have another one for eight months.

    Labour is different, if 20% of MPs and MEPs vote for a motion of no confidence in the leader then a challenge can be mounted, currently that means 51 MPs or MEPs.

    Unfortunately for the "moderates" the last time they tried to oust Corbyn they got mullered because Corbyn supports all the things the grassroots members want (fully funding of the NHS, building council houses, renationalising railways, water, electricity, etc.) that they are against.

    At the last General Election those policies led to the biggest increase in Labour's share of the vote (9.6%, up from 30.4% in 3015 to 40%) since they won in 1945.

    Corbyn is pretty much untouchable as Labour leader because unlike Blair he actually listens to the grassroots, unlike Blair he leaves the local parties alone to select their candidates and unlike Blair he promotes socialist policies rather than simply watering down Thatcherite neo-liberablism.

    Times certainly have changed.

    Labour party membership has gone up 190k before Corbyn was elected leader to 540k. Before Miliband changed the rules Labour was very much a party that was ruled from the top, now its very much ruled from the bottom up.

    Which is why "centarists" like Chuka Umunna, Kate Hoey and Tom Watson are getting their knickers in a twist because their routes to high paid directorships on the boards of global corporations profiteering from "out sourcing" and privatisation are no longer assured.

    I must admit that when I saw this I assumed that it was a very clever photo shop, because, well surely because right, however Fox and Friends have had come out and apologize saying that a mistake was made and the banner should never have made it to final print.

    do you think!!
