Darlo Uncovered

The SNP received 45% of the vote in Scotland, and that includes the votes of people who want to remain part of the U.K.

There is no mandate for another Scottish independence referendum.

Darlo is Conservative again.

Yes, yes, fucking yes

🥳

The thing is, even if the Tories win, I’ll still be depressed about the number of people who voted for Corbyn.

It’s like when everyone votes for what to eat and a Curry wins, but you can’t enjoy it because you know the second most popular meal was you.

I’ve not read all of the stuff above - I’ll re-visit later but it looks like H1987 is a prick . . . Anyway, all I wanted to say is that for the first time in my life I’m genuinely envious of ‘Artlepool. They’ve got Richard Tice running for MP there and he is a genuinely good bloke. Unfortunately, D...

Can’t be arsed to read the usual guff above from the Remoaners but thought I’d share this classic from Jenny Chapman demanding a General Election days after she voted against one earlier this week

George doesn't look to have gained any fashion sense

I thought George Melly was dead?!

The one option Parliament voted for was the Malthouse Conpromise (effectively May’s deal without the backstop). That’s what Boris is trying to get the EU to change. If he gets that change and then Parliament vote it down again then it will be clear that Parliament will not accept our departure. In t...

Call an election, make it exclusively about Brexit and then he can have a mandate for what he wishes, if the public vote for it. His has a mandate for leaving - it was originally given in 2016 and then re-affirmed in 2017. I'm not sure why you don't think he has a mandate. The ballot paper said "Le...

Johnson’s overplayed his hand on this one. You can’t argue for the sovereignty of parliament and then suspend it because you don’t like what it says. I disagree. They are losing only 4 days of debate time. After three years of titting around, 4 days do no matter. They will also have time to debate ...

Unobstructed

Cap doffed.

Who’d have thunk Ken Hodcroft was a good ‘un after all?

He’s the Brexit Party’s parliamentary candidate for ‘Artlepool at the next election.

I hope she's rotting in some hell-like afterlife for all eternity .

NARRATOR: She’s not.

This (I think) five part documentary on Thatcher that’s currently being shown on BBC 2 shows/reminds us how magnificent she was. She makes current leaders look like schoolchildren

I still view Darlo as a Tory town because that’s what I grew up with.

When our fantastic town returns a Tory MP again, I will think about moving back home.

I’ve only flicked through this thread but no-one appears to have mentioned Billions . . .

. . . you strange people!

Tucked up so you insult.

That’s a sign of a Lefty.

None more important? Do you actually think your life is more important because of how you voted!?

Not only dim, but selfish as well. What a look.

Are you hard of understanding as you do not not appear to know what “none more important” means?

but i'd be prepared to compromise to this Well, that’s very magnanimous of you, as a loser of the referendum, to compromise with the winners! :roll: Democracy isn't a game of football son.

Sadly those who voted UKIP to force the leaving thought that once the referendum took place it was a done deal and they went back to their "natural" parties. Big, big mistake. Yes, I was annoyed at Farage downing tools after the referendum (although he did deserve a breather) as the pressure needed...

I’ve always thought of Quaker Pete as objectionable.

This thread does nothing to contest that.
