Does anyone think "getting Brexit over the line", then winning a GE, possibly with a third of the vote or less, with c half the population embittered is a recipe for harmonious government and society?
Diehard Remainers refused to respect the Leave vote, refused to vote for the compromise of the Withdrawal Agreement and refused to support No Deal. They left Boris and Cummings no choice but to deliver the Leave vote which won the EU referendum by whatever means necessary and deliver it they will!
Outstanding
Brexit is so riven by contridictions, the absurdity of its execution is so stupid one wonders how anyone sane can support it. Those cabinet ministers who opposed shutting down parliament in the past should resign next week...

Music Complete is a masterpiece, though.
Monarchy = Socialism!
You've addressed in typical fashion your anger at those seeking to stymie Brexit (although oddly you are angry at the people who refused to vote for the compromise like, er, many of those you now support the most), but complacently ignored the part about what if Boris does deliver?
I presume you think it will all be fine if he delivers, so why not say so and not look like you are being complacent about the risks of winning in this fashion?
Also, could you please write the word remainer for me? I want to see if you are capable of doign so without adding 'diehard' before it - not that I am critical of use of term in all circumstances.
Government control of most of the economy is socialism
That Seamus Milne strategy of Tory chaos is looking a bit ropey tonight.
Time and again they have tried to force an agenda in a deeply partisan, unhelpful way. Time and again, the decision making has been poor and as we get deeper, the overreaches and abuses of power are bigger.
People like me, who voted remain but were initially prepared to accept the soft Brexit that SeanT assured us was inevitable, have been marginalised and radicalised to the point of outright protest. I would now walk over hot coals to see these charlatans removed from power.
And you think this is going to end well for the Tories - on the heady heights of 31% in the polls and with 40 of your MPs in outright rebellion. Good luck with that election campaign.

If Boris delivers Brexit he will win the next general election, if he does not he will lose it, it is that simple

Boris/Cummings have enraged and united those who support a deal but not a no deal, those who want a referendum, those wanting to revoke, and it looks like they will easily get the numbers to force Boris to stop a no deal
Or are we at the "i'm only a Cabinet minister" stage of it all already?
Diehard Remainers have blocked Brexit at every junction, purely by a determination to deny the will of the people and the Leave vote.
Time and again they have resisted the Withdrawal Agreement, ably assisted by the deeply partisan Corbyn Labour and the only compromise on the table for their pathetic games.
People like you have utter contempt for millions of working class Leave voters who voted to regain control of their borders and to regain sovereignty and I will do everything in my power to ensure Boris wins the next general election and you are comprehensively defeated.
And if you think your contempt for the biggest vote in postwar history is going to lead to some Remainer triumph you are in for a shock, from the Midlands to the North to Wales to the rural South the silent majority is ready to get its revenge
You know nothing of this country outside of Essex. The North is not going to vote for Boris or the Brexit Party.
It is not the Queens fault
That reminds me, I came across one of the cheesiest most cliched examples of this the other day.

A lesson if we are doing a thread header, keep it real.
Nice one Boris.

And thank you for using the word remainer by itself - that way it will have more impact when you use die hard.
The Queen has one job. She flunked it.
However beyond that I think Mr Meeks is wrong in almost every respect, so dogmatic as to have lost all reason and become blinded by that which he opposes.
So Britain is supposed to post-Brexit be a country "you cannot easily envisage the country ever coming back together to forge a new consensus" . . . yet Brexit will be reversed will it? Illogical starting point, if Brexit is to be reversed a new consensus will be required in order to do so.
Similarly Scotland and NI are supposed to be leaving, at a point where leaving a union has been shown to be anything but easy. Yet this leaves behind an even more Eurosceptic nation - England and Wales voted to leave the EU by a majority of 2 million votes, it was the one-sidedness of the Scottish and NI that made it close. Leave won every single region in England and Wales bar London and almost all local authorities. Yet supposedly then Eurosceptic England is going to inevitably rejoin the EU?
In order for this to occur the government is going to have to roll Snake Eyes with a reroll available, followed by double 6's from the rejoiners.

Edit: Also the pay's low and you get a lot of crap from people who get the service for free but nevertheless consider they are entitled to insult you for providing it.
Of course, there is a residual affection for the current HMQ, who has been as good in the role as it is possible to be.
Her successor may not get the benefit of the doubt.
with Labour holding just 55% of its 2017 vote (plus the Tories are winning 4% of 2017 Labour voters while only 1% of 2017 Tory voters now back Corbyn Labour)

Now you could have a case about the motives of her advice but the anger for that should not be directed to the Queen
And by the way, as I have said before, I am a republican

I have a collection of all the FF single-player, double-player and the Sorcery Epic
You never took me up on my offer to wager you £5 that serial diehard remainer Cat McKinnell would take Newcastle upon Tyne North regardless of what happens with Brexit.
She's no more than a glorified functionary. A figurehead puppet of the Prime Minister of the day.
As she should be in a democratic constitutional monarchy.
If she wants to start getting involved in decision making she should abdicate and stand for Parliament.

Turnout 2016 = 72.2%

I had a massive collection of FF and AFF books but my parents threw them out while moving house while I was at university. Not bought any or read any since, I thought computer games had killed off the genre to be honest.

Her job is not to sit there and so whatever fatty chops tells her to do.
She should have deferred and called for a larger privy council. It would have been an outrage to refuse Johnson; but it was a grave error to approve him.
That’s the whole point, you blistering c***.
If Parliament doesn't like it, then its job is to vote down the PM. Parliament is the check on the PM, not HMQ.
