the gall of this boob saying he wouldn't serve in a Bojo Cabinet; is the best political suicide quote since the nutcase bellowed "BREXIT MEANS BREEXIT"

Remainer. Can piss off. We need a Brexiteer or we'll be back here again in no time.

Confirming he could not serve in a Cabinet under Mr Johnson, Mr Stewart told Sky News: "I believe I can get Brexit done... can beat Jeremy Corbyn... and most important of all I believe I can begin to reunify this country."
On Mr Johnson he said: "I sat down with Boris Johnson two weeks ago and he said to me he would not be pushing for a policy of 'no deal' Brexit. I left the room feeling that we had an understanding. "I now understand, from what he said yesterday, he is going to try to crash us out of the European Union at the end of October... that is not being straight with people." |

I don't want the country "unified". That's where all the problems and resentment stem from.
I want the will of the majority implemented. And then, and only then, the minority can start campaigning for what they want. Compromise is a dirty word. Anyone who says it's not is just trying to impose the will of the minority. |

By:
The majority used to believe that the world was flat.
The majority used to believe that the sun revolved around the earth. The majority used to believe in racial superiority. The majority used to believe that humans could nor run a mile in less than four minutes. The majority used to think it was ok to drive your car without wearing a seatbelt. The majority used to believe that Bernard Manning was funny. Circumstances and depth of understanding change over time, new majorities are formed. |

They do now indoctrinate the majority at school in the round earth orbiting the sun theory.

Circumstances and depth of understanding change over time, new majorities are formed. Indeed - in 1975, the majority decided it was a good idea to join the (then) EEC by 2016 the majority voted to leave........ |

They actually voted to remain in the European Community in June 1975, having joined on 1 January 1973.

IDS has just called him stupid, well that his comments were. I wonder if Molly Robbins is now advising Stewart after his wonderful advice to the nutcase for 3 years

He's a snake in the grass that one.
Apart from revealing what he and Johnson discussed in private (I assume,) he's stabbing another candidate in the back even before all the runners have been decided. Id say that will rule him out of most people's cabinet whoever wins, and it certainly won't be him with that ridiculous face and boring manner of speaking. He looks like a wizened Jim Carrey, with an expression that would stop a clock. |

Have we had the weigh in for Rory v Boris yet?

The thing is he is actually telling the truth it's just not what people want to hear and of course won't win the leadership contest.
Boris and Raab are already promising impossible things that they know the membership want to hear, it might pick up a lot of support, but it's this sorta stuff why we're in this mess in the first place. It's also going to come back to bite them in a few months if they win and then can't deliver their promises. |
|
By:
Just in, Bojo has weighed in at 2.5 Rories.
|
|
By:
they are not promising impossible things, even though you might think or want it to be. As for Quasis dependant; if he is saying things that people don't want to hear, then why is he saying them? I thought he wanted to be PM? Are you insinuating that he has another agenda? Maybe to sabotage Bojos bid? That's not cricket dear chap. I can tell you now that 5 or 6 will try the same thing & none will succeed. But they will probablyake it less obvious than nellie's sub wannabee did today

By:
They most definitely are. "We will leave on the 31st October with or without a deal" is the exact same trap May fell into. It's an undeliverable promise.
I am saying that it's sad that politics has become about just pandering to what people want to hear and ignoring the realities, given it's that exact type of politics that got us here in the first place. Stewart is obviously trying to appeal in principle I'd assume to the MPs who realise this, but of course it won't win a vote in the membership which is full of people totally out of touch with reality. |
|
By:
the only one out of touch is you! Just how do you think leaving on32st October is an "undeliverable promise"? That is going to happen one way or the other. The nutcase is not in power now so going back to her Li's & ineptitude is pointless. No leader now can act the same way; & it doesn't matter who it is. A deal will be done or leave it is. There will, no doubt be an attempt to bring down the Government but it will fail as MPs care about saving their own skins

By:
leaving on 32 October is definitely undeliverable

If you think you will get away leaving against parliaments will you are in cuckoo land. Even the no deal "dream" is a non-starter, you wouldn't actually be around to deliver it if you tried.
Tom Newton Dunn @tnewtondunn Follow Follow @tnewtondunn More Tom Newton Dunn Retweeted Pippa Crerar Is this Boris's first big mistake? There won't even be enough time to pass the 6 No Deal bills before Oct 31 now, let alone other preparations. Some serious Brexiteers are now saying extend A50 by another 12 months and then you'd be ready for a hard ball new negotiation. Rupert Harrison @rbrharrison Follow Follow @rbrharrison The Brexiteer candidates (ie Boris and Dominic Raab) in particular should be very careful what they say during the campaign - temptation clearly to talk tough but probably odds on that their first action will have to be requesting another extension from the EU... 11:45 AM - 16 May 2019 Parliament will reject no deal legislation, reject the bills, and prevent you make the preparations required to actually make it a remotely feasibly option. |

By:
They can't reject it! I don't care who's nonsense you c&p a deal will be done before 31st October or we will leave! What happens after that date, is another matter

By:
Ok, whatever you want to believe, as long as Brexiteers believe that they will end up killing Brexit.

It's the remainders crying into their cornflakes that has caused the division in this country; numerous uno being the former PM. Mix her with an inadequate & bumbling opposition, who couldn't organize a barmitzvah. Then you have inedible recipe we have all been eating for over 2 years

It will be the Brexiteers that kill Brexit by not understanding the political situation.

The audacity of someone who presumes he knows more than the MPs or Parliamentarians is quite astonishing. As for "not understanding the political situation" Words fail me. There was a report today saying just how hard it will be to avoid a no-deal scenario, not to mention they would need the support of the incoming PM as well. Maybe leavers should stop reading Ladybird books, quit moaning & just embrace the fact that we are oft! They !are beginning to wail & screech like the Democrats in America since Clinton got nutted. That wasn't supposed to happen either!
