Order out of oppressive oligarchic ordure...


Order must be maintained: Becow must be restrained. He believes himself to be democratic and correct; he is wrong and he is a tyrant. "The only form of Brexit which we will have, whenever that might be, will be a Brexit that the House of Commons has explicitly endorsed" he says, forgetting that both the referendum result and the overwhelming vote by MPs for the European Union Bill to implement Article 50 (by a massive 81% in favour) is that explicit endorsement, i.e. LEAVE.

Martin Sewell, writing on the blog of His Grace, on the button again: "The Legislature has become the Executive, and there is no mechanism to call them to account"

"The UK Constitution defines and defends the ‘separation of powers‘. When Labour introduced the Human Rights Act in 1998, strict adherence to that doctrine made us alter the ancient role of the Lord Chancellor..."

Now, the Bercow-led Evil Alliance (really in league with the Sith Order) of corrupt, partisan, pompous egotisical shysters have "stepped over an important line".
'The intent of separation of powers is to prevent the concentration of unchecked power by providing for “checks” and “balances” to avoid autocracy, over-reaching by one branch over another, and the attending efficiency of governing by one actor without need for negotiation and compromise with any other (Wikipedia).'
"That matters.
"What they did not do was pause to reflect on the full implications of such a constitutional shift. It has indeed brought in an autocracy, for those intent on having their own way cannot be required to submit to the people’s judgement even though a majority of parliamentarians voted for it. There are currently no checks and no balances. The Legislature has become the Executive and there is no mechanism to call them to account; they have blocked a general election. We have become an autocracy..."
 A General Election refused. A vote of no confidence refused.

"MPs ought to be reliable servants of the people. Currently they are not. A man cannot serve two masters. Members of Parliament cannot simultaneously be taking instructions on how they should act from the electorate and from their EU allies in Brussels."
"The risk to the country by shortsightedly trashing our constitutional settlement is infinitely more serious, and the prorogation period – however long it lasts – might usefully be spent considering whether this is wise and in the public interest".
This most definitely is Parliament vs. The People: the 2015 European Union Referendum Act gave the Leave/Remain decision to the people; Parliament is stopping the government doing what it promised...we know where you live.
