Indeed, it is well-past time. Theresa May needs to resign, and she needs to do it soon. If she won’t resign, then the Cabinet and the 1922 Committee need to sort it out. That’s my conclusion after the UK and EU agreed to extend the Article 50 deadline for withdrawal from the EU to 31st […]
‘Our best hope of getting any Brexit at all is to pass the Withdrawal Agreement.’ That’s what we’re being told. That’s what Conservative Brexiteer rebels are being beaten about the head with. On the same theme, immediately after today’s failed (yet again) vote on the PM’s Brexit deal, official Conservative Party social media went into […]

Its links to […]
The label ‘Apartheid’ is bandied around frequently these days, sadly it hasn’t stuck to the one State who, in my humble opinion, not only deserves it but whose human rights atrocities are routinely ignored and glossed over by the International Community for the sake of not rocking the boat. Unlike other States, whose human rights […]
