Gina and me are new best friends, she doesn't know it though.

I have little doubt though the constitutional experts such as Rees-Mogg had a wry smile on their faces as she wasted our time and money on her anti-brexit campaigns.

What she should be doing is turning her campaigning zeal towards the EU and making it more attractive for the UK and others to look at joining again in the future.

When the current incarnation topples hopefully a rejuvenated model will emerge that isn't obsessed with building a homogenous superstate.

She did NOT campaign anti-Brexit. She campaigned to ensure that Brexit went through proper parliamentary procedures instead of the 'royal decree' Mayhem wanted to use so that she could do absolutely whatever she wanted. - like a US president. The waste of our time and money was spent by Mrs Mayhem with her ridiculous unneceary appeal, As usual then,the legal eagles got a nice little earner! Still, when she's out of work (fairly soon) they might step up to help her.

That's one way of looking at it. The other might be that she attempted to frustrate the entire process using whatever legal means she could, and would have been quite happy had she found some way to completely reverse it.

Point of order Dave- a US President is more constrained than our PM is. The only difference there is that Obama had managed to politicise the civil service to a suspiciously deep degree, so there was little to no institutional resistance to his changes. Witness that exact same civil service's recent performance & you'll see what I mean.

Yes okay... you're right on both points, Craig. But I think you know what I meant - Mayhem repeatedly said something like "I will" - not even "we will" or "I/we will propose" but even PMs don't get absolute rule in UK (yet).

Speaking as an ex/current Tory voter I wish Cameron had stayed and seen the Brexit process through. Whatever else you might say about him he was a statesman.

He lost confidence. Politics is an utterly ruthless business.

He was a lying tosser, his whole career and Premiership was based on lies and half truths.

And that is different from any other politician, anywhere, how?

Of course she didn't campaign against Brexit she actually drove the infamous red Bus its just not widely known....................

She of course went through that waste of our time and money on strictly constitutional grounds, her track record as self appointed arbiter of Parliamentary procedure is unmatched.

She is busy at the moment supporting David Davis's team to get the best deal.

Ah man, I have massively misjudged her then in that case.

Interesting observation from William Rees-Mogg that Gina Millar the anti-democracy campaigner has cemented Brexit into British Law ;

Speaking to Robert Peston on ITV, he said: "Because the Article 50 Bill has passed, we are having Brexit no matter what.

"We actually have a lot to thank Gina Miller for, because it is now in law that we leave the EU by the end of March 2019.

"There is no majority in Parliament to repeal that law."

Mrs Miller brought forward a legal challenge to the Government to ensure that a bill on Article 50 went through Parliament.

The Remainer won the verdict, which went all the way to the Supreme Court.

However, the Parliament reacted by quickly passing the bill, turning Article 50 into law.

What a hoot............


Not being pedantic, but it was Jacob Rees-Mogg, his father William, died in 2012... I'd like to see him as PM but one or two of his beliefs would cause a few issues and the masses would think him too much of a toff.

His persona is... well... not quite in touch with the masses?
To be polite;)
