unbeliever Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Exactly! "This petition was rejected" https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/140046 Says it all about our current government really Did you think nobody would check? It was rejected for being a duplicate of this one: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/119416 Which got just shy of 80,000 signatures and elicited a government response which one can read on the page. It seems that most people understand that conducting politics through the criminal courts has some drawbacks. There are also of course dangers in asking the state to define "the truth".

Solomon1 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Why was this petition rejected? There’s already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue. You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/119416 Now it says it all. Thank you Flexo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbeliever Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 (edited) Thank you Flexo Yes, sign and share this petition far and wide! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/119416 That petition is closed. You've come to the party late. Are you sure you want such a law? I thought you wanted to go around telling people that socialism would make them better off and that Corbyn has a change of winning the 2020 GE.

Obelix Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Why would we want to stay shackled to a failing entity like the EU? You still haven't demonstrated how the EU is failing Anna, despite being asked many times. How about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexo Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Hi Solomon You might like to back the #BrexitJustice project which has a law firm working on ways to prosecute the politicians (on both sides) that lied during the referendum campaigns. http://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/brexitjustice ---------- Post added 15-09-2016 at 16:17 ---------- You still haven't demonstrated how the EU is failing Anna, despite being asked many times. If you repeat something often enough then people start to believe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I1L2T3 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Mrs May, hero of the French nuclear industry which will be delighted that May just volunteered 65 million chumps to help with the decommissioning costs of the vast French estate of ancient nuclear plant. Great for us all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great for us all £65m? Not all that much then, compared to the price of Hinkley Point C. Which we couldn't build ourselves. A little diplomacy never hurts.

L00b Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 (edited) Without its emblematic and charismatic Farage, and after the boundary changes? Suuure UKIP as a national party is a spent force, whatever May and Davis end up doing. It won't survive without Farage or a similarly-charismatic frontman. Unless Farage comes back (...again), or UKIP somehow magics out its own Marine-like (and given the 2020 horizon, it had better get its skates on), out of the current political landscape there's only Bojo left to potentially fill that role. <...> A brief update, 18 days after Diane James took the UKIP helm. Oh well. After this latest Conservative party conference, and going by advance reports of her speech today, May is truly and actively turning herself into the hero of the Brexiters. She'll talk of unity, by fomenting more division. Full nativist policies steam ahead. Expect an upsurge in hate crimes in the coming weeks.
