Our antem

Nevertheless, even were mass immigration to end overnight, the population would barely top out, it wouldn't suddenly collapse

2019-10-16 08:26:48 UTC  

It would take a generation to fall 10%

Hello I wanted to ask a question about what is going on in the UK. If the parliament is stopping the UK from leaving, and thus no longer following the what the people want and it is the people that give them the power in the first place why does anyone listen to them? I mean if parliament is now going against the people it has lost its purpose and should be discarded for not lawfully full filling the wishes of the people at least those who are preventing brexit.

2019-10-16 08:45:02 UTC  

They have the guns, and they speak for ~50% of the public so think they can get away with it

2019-10-16 08:47:10 UTC  

do they have the guns? and 48% is not the same as 50% or do they not know maths lol

2019-10-16 08:52:19 UTC  

48%/50%/52% doesn't matter the numbers.
WHen I say "they have the guns", I mean they have the monopoly on force, they have control of the military, the police, the judiciary, all parts of government and the civil service, the schools, the universities, and the hospitals

2019-10-16 08:52:29 UTC  

And the media

2019-10-16 08:53:38 UTC  

You can't simply "discard" parliament, it won't allow itself to be discarded - they are actually refusing to allow a general election to happen at the moment as they know it will see europhiles booted from office in sufficient numbers to undermine their stranglehold

2019-10-16 08:53:47 UTC  

And no, an insurgency isn't going to work

2019-10-16 08:56:04 UTC  

My suggestion would be to sit tight for now

2019-10-16 09:03:52 UTC  

oh ok sounds like whom ever divided up the government made some mistakes as parliament seems to have way too much power over the government itself

2019-10-16 09:05:23 UTC  

Not really, it's growing pains

2019-10-16 09:05:27 UTC  

I mean if they have that much power does the queen even matter

2019-10-16 09:06:01 UTC  

Biggest problem was a flawed bill put through by hipsters about 10 years ago to fix the length of the parliament and make it difficult to call an election outside the fixed parliament length without consensus

2019-10-16 09:06:15 UTC  

Queen doesn't matter, she's a diplomat and a tourism interest

2019-10-16 09:06:22 UTC  

Queen hasn't mattered ever

2019-10-16 09:06:29 UTC  

(This Queen)

2019-10-16 09:07:51 UTC  

The UK royalty haven't played a direct role in governance here for hundreds of years

2019-10-16 09:08:10 UTC  

The current queen has set the precedent of not being involved -at all-

2019-10-16 09:09:03 UTC  

Some of it had to do with the fact the Royal Family were predominantly of German origin, so they went very quiet at the outset of the World Wars

2019-10-16 09:09:16 UTC  

It's what really put them in their box

2019-10-16 09:09:35 UTC  

right but they seem to have some power I mean setting aside parliament of a time longer than usual seemed to be something the queen had to agree to

2019-10-16 09:10:14 UTC  

The queen has to rubber-stamp everything, that's what "set the precedent of not being involved at all" means

2019-10-16 09:10:50 UTC  

Why would the queen want to take sides, cause a constitutional crisis, and sign the death-warrant of the royal family forever?

2019-10-16 09:11:01 UTC  

@Eccles You think that parliament doesn't want GE, but the French Europe minister (whatever that is) said that only a general election or second referendum could be reasons for further etensions on brexit <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

2019-10-16 09:11:17 UTC  

If France goes through with it, watch remainers scramble.

2019-10-16 09:12:01 UTC  

I don't know what will happen, Xav, but a second referendum would be the end of brexit and democracy here

2019-10-16 09:12:12 UTC  

De gaulle part 2: Baguette boogaloo?

2019-10-16 09:12:40 UTC  

The French didn't want us to join in the first olace

2019-10-16 09:12:49 UTC  

Would be fitting for them to "Kick us out"

2019-10-16 09:13:44 UTC  

So who can oppose parliament then?

2019-10-16 09:13:53 UTC  

Overrule them?

2019-10-16 09:14:00 UTC  

yes

2019-10-16 09:14:34 UTC  

Technically the queen can, but won't
The Supreme Court can, but they can only offer judgement on a case, and that case has to be brought by someone
The Supreme Court is also partisan, remain, and globalist in nature

2019-10-16 09:14:38 UTC  

So you won't get any help there

2019-10-16 09:14:47 UTC  

And that's it

2019-10-16 09:14:54 UTC  

Parliament is meant to be the representatives of the people

2019-10-16 09:15:01 UTC  

Yes
