We might not get to know the UK results until Sunday. as other EU member states vote at the weekend. can you remember if this happened last time?

stevewinn Posted May 22, 2019 #6705 Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) Andrea Leadsom has resigned. Its the 36th Resignation under Mays Leadership. firmly putting May as the worst PM in our illustrious History. First PM/Govt to be found of holding parliament in contempt. First PM to suffer the most defeats of any sitting Govt, including the biggest defeat in the HoC. and still she goes on, just think she couldnt get the backing of her own party so crossed the floor to try and get Labours support. i've said it once and i'll say it again sheer desperation in trying to get the WA voted through, she's signed us up to something. The writing is on the wall. Edited May 22, 2019 by stevewinn 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerBright19 Posted May 22, 2019 #6708 Share Posted May 22, 2019 (edited) 6 hours ago, danydandan said: Today FM have reported she is resigning. Is that confirmed or not, can not find any news online. A few weeks ago she told the chair of the 1922 Committee that she would voluntarily step down as leader during the 'next phase' of the Brexit negotiations. Today Jeremy Corbyn told the House that she only has "days" remaining. This Friday she will discuss her future at the 1922 Committee. The Guardian posted this today: The Guardian 'There is now widespread speculation Theresa May could announce her date of departure as early as Friday when she is due to meet Sir Graham Brady, chair of the backbench 1922 Committee.' She might cling on a few more days and make a statement on Sunday/Monday when the EU results are released. This could trigger her immediate resignation and a leadership contest.

We DO have fraud relating to husbands voting on behalf of their wives (or at least, intimidating them into completing postal votes on their behalf).

Well, if a vote had been taken in Uganda or any 3rd world Country and the outcome not implemented by the government the BBC and their ilk would be making programs about the lack of democracy in that country, maybe the UN should have sent in monitors to oversee our elections. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Commander Travis Posted May 24, 2019 #6721 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Here's another one: This elderly gentleman served in the British armed forces for 22 years. Today he was manning a Brexit Party polling station when he was attacked & had milkshake thrown all over him. All because he wants the result of a democratic referendum to be honoured.—Piers Morgan Could someone explain this stupid milkshake meme? Perhaps one of our anti-Brexit friends understands it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that about the elderly man and it was a disgrace... as for weaponized milkshakes... I wonder if it's supposed to be a coded thing for calling someone a racist and supporter of white supremacy.. ... we haven't had a chocolate flavoured milkshake chucked at anyone yet... I wish that the person throwing the milkshake would be grabbed hold of and literally have their noses rubbed in it.. but I expect the person doing that would be arrested... even though out of the 4 milkshakes thrown at Tommy Robinson, Carl Benjamin, Nigel Farage and now the war veteran guy... only the one who did it to Farage has been arrested...

I hope you are right... but I can't help remembering the rather suspicious broken down lorry episode (carrying ballot boxes) in the 2015 general election.... when the result of the South Thanet vote was delayed for hours and Nigel Farage came second.... although he was kind of expected to win.... it all seemed a bit too convenient - it may have been a strange coincidence and sequence of events... but... a question to ask oneself is.... if they could cheat would they - and when it comes to anything related to Brexit or anything that can seriously rock the status quo....IMO, the answer is yeah they would, if they thought they could get away with it.. so that's why the integrity of the result depends on the honesty of all those involved... ?
