Talking of people like that.

2019-09-16 17:09:36 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

I have a strategy

2019-09-16 17:09:53 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

At work there is a Socialist who think corbyn isnt left enough

2019-09-16 17:10:06 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Now as some context to what im about to say

2019-09-16 17:10:32 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

My housemate is Romanian right, mate for a while and I invited him to stay with me. We work in the same office

2019-09-16 17:11:12 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

We mate open jokes about socialism all the time etc. And seeing this dude unable to say anything because the guy from the ex socialist nation is doing it.

2019-09-16 17:11:14 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

My god

2019-09-16 17:12:19 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Of course we sprinkle in some brexit.

The dude > Man that form must have been difficult, you know to get your IDR to stay after brexit

My mate > Actually it took 5 minutes online and came back in a week

The dude > Silence

2019-09-17 17:08:23 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Oh the irony

2019-09-17 17:08:27 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

The sweet

2019-09-17 17:08:31 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Sweet nectar of irony

2019-09-17 17:09:41 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

I guess the logic stands then? Remain clearly had no idea what they voted for

2019-09-17 17:13:06 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Not a huge surprize

2019-09-17 17:13:14 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

however I had the case on in the background today

2019-09-17 17:13:22 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Lord Keen did a very good job

2019-09-17 17:13:33 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Near the end he dismantled the main reasoning

2019-09-17 17:13:54 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Which was the fact they said that MPs could recall themselves during a normal recess

2019-09-17 17:14:05 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

(Which the prorogation straddles)

2019-09-17 17:14:19 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Since the actual sitting days lost was only 7

2019-09-17 17:15:04 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Keen explained that it was false to state they could recall themselves as it actually requires the executive first to recall them, and then for the speaker of the house to approve it "Only if it is in the national interest"

2019-09-17 17:15:48 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

I will see if I can find the VOD of it

2019-09-17 17:16:44 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Full Afternoon session

2019-09-17 17:18:45 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Watch from 1:38:00 for what i explain

2019-09-17 17:19:38 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

more like 1:39:00 actually

2019-09-17 17:20:47 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Inner house = Court of session, so the scottish case

2019-09-17 17:22:58 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

So in essence, the Scottish case of an extraordinary prorogation length was built on the false fact that they thought parliament could recall itself from the recess which the prorogation straddles. (The BBC etc coverage doesn't even touch this)

2019-09-17 17:45:25 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

we are having the US's problems

2019-09-17 17:45:29 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Just in a very british way

2019-09-17 18:52:59 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdytusXDozM This Jeff guy is pretty good

2019-09-17 18:53:14 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

The bit at the end of the video is very very interesting

2019-09-18 13:36:27 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Listening to the afternoon session

2019-09-18 13:36:51 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

The traitor side is basically just trying to compliment the court to victory

2019-09-18 13:36:59 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

No actual statements of fact or anything yet

2019-09-18 13:37:19 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Compared with the morning session, which was devoid of emotion and was just solid facts

2019-09-18 13:40:15 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Now he is arguing that Scots law is somehow a higher standard than English high court

2019-09-18 13:40:22 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

So therefore they should accept their decision

2019-09-18 13:42:12 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

This is literally just poetry and emotion

2019-09-18 13:42:22 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

He is bringing up fucking macbeth

2019-09-18 13:46:35 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

He isn't making any points other than asking the court to rule with the Scots inner circle

2019-09-18 13:46:50 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Because of the fact they are the supreme Court and diversity

2019-09-18 13:57:03 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Yeah

2019-09-18 13:57:16 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

He just tried to prove precedent

2019-09-18 13:57:33 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

And lady hale disagreed and he had no real response to that

2019-09-18 13:58:03 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Tried to prove prorogative power was justicable with a single case

2019-09-18 13:58:15 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

That could also be defined as a case that dealt with common law

2019-09-18 14:07:44 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

He is essentially arguing against all forms of prorogation at this point.

2019-09-18 14:08:09 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

His argument hinges on the court having to decide what a reasonable prorogation is

2019-09-18 14:08:56 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

He is essentially directly calling on the court to become politically charged

2019-09-18 14:23:52 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Kek

2019-09-18 14:24:05 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Now his argument is that boris outsmarted them

2019-09-18 14:40:04 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

You need a balance

2019-09-18 14:40:12 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

If you have total control you get stalin

2019-09-18 14:40:27 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

If you have total free morket you have watergate but much worse.

2019-09-18 14:40:50 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

As with most things

2019-09-18 14:40:53 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Balance is key

2019-09-18 14:41:09 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

How you balance it

2019-09-18 14:41:17 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Depends on the leaning of the government in power

2019-09-18 14:41:23 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

And the voters ofc

2019-09-18 14:41:35 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

However balance around the centre is usually very stable

2019-09-18 14:41:42 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Ofc it's never perfectly centre

2019-09-18 14:42:47 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

And what once they go away we all get in big circles and sing kumbyahh?

2019-09-18 14:43:05 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Or do the big eat the small until there is no competition

2019-09-18 14:43:10 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Since competition makes life hard

2019-09-18 14:44:29 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

One is accountable and one isn't. However you are using extremes

2019-09-18 14:44:44 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

You are saying free market is preferable to socialism or authoritarianism

2019-09-18 14:44:59 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

You arnt arguing for free market over a mixed economy.

2019-09-18 14:45:15 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

I was saying "or" to include more types of auth

2019-09-18 14:53:39 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

So lord

2019-09-18 14:53:44 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Watching this shit

2019-09-18 14:53:53 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

So much emotional arguments still

2019-09-18 14:54:00 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

So much political points

2019-09-18 14:54:15 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

So much inference without evidence

2019-09-18 14:54:32 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Even the judges arnt buying it

2019-09-18 14:54:45 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

At least less than the morning session

2019-09-18 14:54:48 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Less questions

2019-09-18 14:54:51 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

More disagreements

2019-09-18 14:54:52 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Etc

2019-09-18 14:55:21 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

I'm about 25 mins behind

2019-09-18 14:55:28 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Since I'm at work so have to pause sometimes

2019-09-18 14:56:48 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Not a surprise

2019-09-18 14:56:53 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

He didn't have one anyway

2019-09-18 14:56:59 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Not since april

2019-09-18 14:59:24 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

I mean Keen yesterday blew this guy out of the water

2019-09-18 14:59:45 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

He has already addressed his points

2019-09-18 15:00:30 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

He's been in for ages

2019-09-18 15:00:35 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

They need a new leader anyway

2019-09-18 15:02:30 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

<:SurprisedPikachu:588964997452005386>

2019-09-18 15:42:10 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Typical redefinition to invoke an emotional reaction

2019-09-18 15:42:35 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Much easier to feel compassion for a "victim of the immigration system"

2019-09-18 15:42:40 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Than illegal immigrant

2019-09-18 15:43:18 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Technically parliament isn't the government

2019-09-18 15:43:27 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

The government is boris and his party.

2019-09-18 15:43:53 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

It's a notable definition right now

2019-09-18 15:44:03 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Since the government and the people are opposed to parliament

2019-09-18 15:44:08 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

It isn't people vs government

2019-09-18 15:44:26 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Federal monarchy

2019-09-18 15:44:30 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Heard of Canada

2019-09-18 15:44:43 UTC [Athens #uk_politics]  

Or austrailia
