If - and I am only assuming here - that you're on about not backing the motions calling for a long term extension and adding a Peoples Vote. The leaders of the Peoples Vote themselves have come out and said now is not the time to push for a Peoples Vote on the issue. Today is purely down to trying to push for an extension to Article 50. The issue of the Peoples Vote should come after. The motion including the option of a peoples vote today is just muddying the waters, when right now it needs clear direction from Members of Parliament.

If May were to resign then obviously this clown would come to the front of the queue for the job. More unbelievable comments by a person so out of touch with reality its untrue. www.bbc.com/news/uk-47560192I suspect Boris is more clued up than he often lets on. If I thought he was just a bumbling old toff, I could forgive him, but I think he’s an opportunist who uses the act to strike a chord with populists, Sun readers and the “you can’t say anything anymore” brigade. Sadly, it seems to work. That’s why I think the best Tories are the plain incompetent ones, like May.

Don’t you realise how pompous you sound with that “citizen of the world, citizen of nowhere” guff? Actually,What I do object to, is some mindless Nationalist, who lives in Wolverhanpton, holiday's at The Robin Hood camp, in Rhyl and is concerned about Romanian immigration, knackering up my right to live and work, in 27 EU countries. I had a place, in France for 7 years and if I knew, what I know now, I would have taken out French citizenship. rather than be stuck on this festering little Island, with the Tories. Quickly, do it now. Get the French citizenship. Oh, and bye bye.

It’s incredible that you support Corbyn, yet call Boris for presenting an image that isn’t the reality. Oh, and before you start on me, I could never vote for a party headed by the Boris Buffoon.

This view is widely-held and shows just how effective the media is at misinforming people and propping up this shower of a government. The Tory bastards have been vacillating for months and made parliament vote twice on basically the same deal. Labour has an alternative proposal that would get passed, and that has the support of all sides, yet both are responsible? Hostility towards Corbyn extends well beyond Brexit as you well know. It looks juvenile pretending not to understand why Labour are where they are and that the media are to blame for it. With that front bench, Labour are not a credible opposition. In the context of an atrocious Tory government, Labour's position under Corbyn looks all the more tragic. Juvenile - what a good word when describing the multiple personality or the Gang of Four.

People are wilfully choosing not to recognise the position that Corbyn is in with Brexit. More central members of the party are liked coiled springs, ready to attack him for taking an ambiguous position on Brexit.
They know full well that as a membership, Labour is well and truly split on Brexit. The traditional, northern Labour strong holds all voted firmly for Brexit. Jeremy Corbyn represents these people and knows that if he had instantly backed a second referendum, that their votes would be lost forever.
You can see the narrative that would be spun out either way. If he backed a second referendum he's a traitor to his strong holds - if he respected the result and pushed for Brexit, he's 'not providing any opposition'.
People know this, but they'd rather just convince themselves that Chuka and Anna Soubry are going to save the day. It's laughable.

Just to add, there will be more opportunities for a people's vote to take place in future. But right this second even with Labour and all the other non- Tory and DUP MPs behind it there is not enough support for it to pass, at present.
I suspect they will change if all other avenues are exhausted, and/or May keeps arsing around bringing her same failed withdrawal agreement back like it seems she's doing again early next week!

If that money helps to save at least one person from becoming a victim of abuse and brings at least one perpetrator to justice then it is money well spent in my view. I guess those comments show how out of touch he is with modern Britain. Those who were once frightened to speak out about historic abuse have bravely come forward and the likes of Andy Woodward, Paul Stewart and Steve Walters deserve credit and praise for being so brave and inspiring others to come forward. Also those brave ladies who have spoken out abuse abuse they received from Z listers years ago also deserve praise and recognition. They don't deserve comments like that from a privileged cretin. Unfortunately child abuse is a scourge on what is a supposed to be a modern forward thinking state as has been seen in places like Rochdale, Rotherham and Oxford. It needs to be eradicated asap as it is a national disgrace. I suppose the only reason he could say it is money wasted is because when finances have been spent on this alleged Westminster "VIP" Child abuse ring papers have conveniently gone missing!!

I don’t know, I think there is a bit of a “man up” culture about it within certain circles. Eric Bristow said the abused footballers were “wimps” - shame really that probably his last reported contribution before he died was something as stupid as that.

It will only get through with the support of Labour Leavers and the likes of Caroline Flint. They should face autonatic de-selection Labour needs to hold its nerve It is a massive ask for May. There are also members of the ERG who would rather rub peppers in their eyes than to support May's deal. A long delay is the best outcome, remain is starting to win all the arguments, becauae Brexit is being increasingly seen as a bad idea.
