Internal Market Bill - Brexit Update 4 - Transitional Phase


Lets Get Real:

This could be a good solution out to allow those to who oppose the UK breaking international law, to support the Government's bill while stating that they will have the final say.  It really depends how the Chief Whip reads the House of Commons and his fellow MPs and how many he can not not force to change their minds, the PM has the power to remove the whip from those that do not follow the Party line, that would mean that those MPs could no longer stand as Conservative MPs at the next election.  It is a drastic move but its a power that the PM has, interesting week ahead in the House of Commons.

Internal Market Bill and the House of Lords - Brexit Update 3 - Transitional Phase


Lets Get Real:

The next problem for the Internal Market Bill will be next week when a Amendment till tie the Government to coming back to the House of Commons before a Minister can overrule the withdrawal agreement, but even then the Government might be able to push it through due to its big majority.  In the House of Lords the Government can use the Parliament Act of 1949, that states after a bit a tussle that House of Commons has the final say on ALL ACTS that it wants, their Lordships can be overruled.  One does hope by next week that Boris get a deal with the EU, it would be a shock for the UK to break international law.

Historic Change in the Middle East - US Presidential Election 2020


Lets Get Real:

This is an historic achievement by President Trump and will help with the Middle East, the problem is that POTUS can not keep his mouth shut and is prone to texting on all things, sometimes true, sometimes not.  A more standard President would use the above event to get a 2nd term, but Trump might have sunk his own ship with his rhetoric and his failure over COVID - 19.  All the match up polls show Biden is AHEAD by 7 to 8 points, as long as he doe not mess up in the debates we are looking forward to a first Biden Administration.  One doubts that the World can cope with a 2nd Trump term.

Internal Market Bill - Brexit Update 2 - Transitional Phase


Lets Get Real:

The BBC's Newsnight and Sky have really become HARD REMAINERS centre, they go about international law, what about the Sovereign right of Northern Ireland to be seen as part of the UK, the various Acts of Union makes that clear, the HARD REMAINERS will try anything to thwart BREXIT, even coming up with bogus questions that feed back to their own views on BREXIT, and that being a negative.  The PM is right in forcing his Bill through Parliament, this will show the EU that the UK can not be bullied, that we are not some small nation that must bend the knee in front of the EU.   Good job today by the PM.

Internal Market Bill - Brexit Update 1 - Transitional Phase

BBC News: Reports that the PM's Internal Market Bill has passed its first hurdle, the article states the following, " MPs backed the Internal Market Bill by 340 votes to 263.  "

Lets Get Real:

There are two weeks while the House of Commons and the House of Lords go through the BILL, line by line, if the Government majority tonight is any example, the House of Commons should be the EASY PART.   When all the former PM's came out against the deal and the USUAL remainers popped their heads over the trench to be critical, the blog is supporting the PM.  If the EU are really threatening to blockade food going from the UK to Northern Ireland, then the PM should WALK out of the talks, this is nothing else but blackmail.  The PM should remind the EU, that the UK is a sovereign nation, and that includes Northern Ireland.   One does hope that the EU has learned the lesson, that the UK will do what it takes to secure the Union and the EU can go to hell or Brussels, same place in many respects.
