Someone on FB said Boris could fill up the House of Lords with a load of Brexiteer lords to sway the result

Is that possible?

2019-09-06 18:10:34 UTC  

the bill passed from lords already

2019-09-06 18:10:46 UTC  

like 4-5 hours ago

2019-09-06 18:10:48 UTC  

oh really?

2019-09-06 18:10:53 UTC  

Didn't see the news on it

2019-09-06 18:11:48 UTC  

Ah yes, found it

2019-09-06 18:11:50 UTC  

guess not then

> Google’s senior director of U.S. public policy, Adam Kovacevich appeared to describe the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) as a “sideshow Circus,” in a leaked audio recording in which he also argued that Google should remain a sponsor of the conference to “steer” the conservative movement “away from nationalistic and incendiary comments.”

Surely whether we've left on the 31st would influence voting intention

2019-09-06 18:15:32 UTC  

Under the bill - introduced by Labour MP Hilary Benn - Boris Johnson might have to request a Brexit extension on 19 October, pushing the deadline back to 31 January 2020.

But there are two scenarios in which he would not have to do this:

MPs approve a Brexit deal in another meaningful vote (remember them?)
MPs vote in favour of leaving the EU without a deal

2019-09-06 18:15:39 UTC  

I can't see either of those things happening

2019-09-06 18:15:46 UTC  

So extension it is

2019-09-06 18:16:50 UTC  

now imagine bojo having to go and ask EU for an extention

2019-09-06 18:16:53 UTC  

lmao

2019-09-06 18:17:37 UTC  

how 'bout we leave, anyway

2019-09-06 18:17:44 UTC  

The EU can refuse. @Hopix

2019-09-06 18:17:51 UTC  

they wont

2019-09-06 18:17:57 UTC  

EU nations could VETO the extension.

2019-09-06 18:18:03 UTC  

I'm aware but I can't see them refusing

2019-09-06 18:18:06 UTC  

Boris could theoretically veto it.

2019-09-06 18:18:20 UTC  

The Queen could refuse royal ascent of the law.

2019-09-06 18:18:33 UTC  

Does the Queen ever do that?

2019-09-06 18:18:40 UTC  

the only incentive they had to refuse was back in april and it was the EU elections

2019-09-06 18:18:44 UTC  

Not recently, though it's her right.

2019-09-06 18:18:47 UTC  

now that passed

2019-09-06 18:18:54 UTC  

what did she last do it for?

2019-09-06 18:19:35 UTC  

Oh, never mind

2019-09-06 18:19:39 UTC  

She hasn't before

2019-09-06 18:20:09 UTC  

1914 was the last time it happened

2019-09-06 18:20:44 UTC  

Guess we're in remarkable times, if she's gunna do it again, now's the time

2019-09-06 18:20:59 UTC  

Jacob Rees Mogg is on the privy council, so he could recommend she refuses to sign it.

2019-09-06 18:21:07 UTC

2019-09-06 18:21:13 UTC  

Does it only take one EU nation to block the extension?

2019-09-06 18:21:24 UTC  

Yes

2019-09-06 18:21:28 UTC  

THOUGH.
