You realise that just because he’s not involved in the day to day running doesn’t stop him being an active member and taking a profit share right? Edited by DanH (19 Sep 2019 6.45am)

You are happy to accuse others of making a tit of themselves so why not go back and read what I was responding to instead of making a tit of yourself

Was it "He will remain a partner but will no longer be involved in the management of the company. His stake of between 15 and 20% will be placed into a blind trust while he is a minister." For the sake of the hard of understanding Jacob Rees-Mogg has exactly the same relationship with the operation of the hedgefund as George Soros does with his trust

You are at it again aren't you? Insults are no substitute for debate nor lies for the truth. Just because you have read something on Facebook or in the Daily Mail or Sun doesn't mean it's true. I gave you the real facts. They are all on the public record so go check them out if you refuse to believe me. Gina Miller was one of several founders of "Best for Britain" who did receive some funding from one of the Soros foundations but she left them in 2017 as they were becoming, in her opinion, too political. She has not, so far as anyone knows, received any funding either directly from him, or via his foundation, for the court cases. These have been crowdfunded. I actually agree that it ought not be down to an individual citizen to have to raise such an important matter in Court or to have to fund it themselves in some way. This ought to be the responsibility of us all and paid for through taxation. That is what I said so why you go into a long drawn out answer I just do not know.....as I have said before you are a know it all and a trouble making person. We just cannot debate with you as others have said. You are pathetic!!!!
Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky. |

In any event I would imagine that the polls won't bear much resemblance to what will actually happen if a General Election is called. When it comes to the crunch will people vote for a party who's current MPs include so many deserters from the main parties in it and who only have their approach to Brexit in common and will they switch their vote to Liberal Democrat knowing that if enough others did it Jo Swinson would end up as Prime Minister

Labour’s position is a farce.

I offer no political stance; merely that it made me chuckle. Edited by YT (19 Sep 2019 11.30am)

Labour’s position is a farce. To be fair to them, and it is not something I like doing, they are the definition of being stuck between a rock and a hard place. Because they must look at the constituency breakdown of both the June 23rd referendum and the more recent Euro elections and shudder. Because that paints the picture for them. For me, Corbyns attempt to keep walking the tight-rope actually makes rational sense because if they were to openly adopt a full on Remain stance, they would be finished. Labour did well in 2017 with a clear commitment to respect the referendum result. And now they support a second referendum. Not going to play well hence why they are bottling a GE. Corbyn is the smart one in that he knows this. What I struggle to understand is the people around him who seem unable to look at a basic map of how the UK has voted on the issue of Europe on the last two occasions it was asked.
