    Here's the problem below in a simple graph -

    plenty of those mps voted for brexit though
    just wasnt a brexit you liked which is kind of the whole issue

    you should listen to the lbc interview where philip lee explains why he quit and realise he would have been part of those sacked anyway

    British law takes precedence over Scottish, English, Welsh and Northern Irish law. But my point is that given the constitution is based on Common law and not Scots law, it is likely that the Supreme Court will take the same view as the English courts did. We don't govern via the courts.
    ianal so we shall have to see

    That's the problem - it isn't his job to 'argue' for anything other than act as a neutral Speaker for all sides of the House of Commons.
    you just said the problem was that he was remain biased
    i dont understand your issue, for years youve said brussels has all the power and it needs to be back on parliament or whatever which this guy is arguing for because the government is trying to bypass parliament to avoid scrutiny
    this isnt an ideological issue where hes trying to force remain to happen

    In what world does regulatory alignment (following EU laws) over Northern Ireland qualify as leaving the European Union?

    I'm delighted they have been deselected. Many of those who were deselected were parachuted in during the Cameron years against the wishes of their local constituency parties to make the Conservative and Unionist Party more liberal, but there was a big problem evident to everyone other than Cameron and Osborne: the party is called the Conservative Party, so its voters want Conservatives to vote for, not confused Liberal Democrats.

    Philip Lee MP stood on a manifesto to deliver Brexit. He lied and now he faces the consequence of losing his career.

    Yes this particular Speaker is making and breaking whatever rules he sees fit to achieve his own political goal concern Remain. If the situation were hypothetically reversed, this would be just as disgraceful. But that's a hypothetical - we have a Speaker acting as the font of constitutional coventions to aid a political cause that has majority support in the House of Commons, but not in the country.

    I argue for power to be returned to Westminster correct. I did not argue for the constitution to be ripped up in the process whereby Parliament ignores public votes that it itself asked and the Speaker then rips up constitutional conventions to aid one side of a political issue. The constitution is being turned on its head as a House of Commons completely out of touch with public opinion tries to defy laws and public opinion to hold on.

    As Professor Vernon Bogdanor (voted Remain) explains...

    the issue with that argument is that it was only a temporary arrangement to set up new procedures in NI which shouldnt have been an issue since it was apparently easily solvable
    also it was always argued that following a norway model is a kind of brexit, which wouldnt be too dissimilar to that set up

    his argument is not a remain/leave one, but that it should be on parliament to be the ones to decide and they should be allowed to scrutinise

    for not wanting an election right in the middle of such a critical time?
    for not wanting an election when johnson thinks hes going to sweep up? because thats all it is fundamentally because theres a strong chance of a) him asking for an extension or b) it going **** up enough that he loses a significant enough chunk of support. this call for an election is just so he can capitalise on what he believes is his current support

    on that video, i will comment further if you send me a full link because at no point does he seem to advocate brexit yet its obviously been edited to some degree by a pro-brexit account. i looked myself but no luck
