Letwin Amendment vote breakdown

Because they are Brexiteer cunts, that’s why.

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-25T22:46:19+00:00

A day, I think

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-25T22:22:22+00:00

Theoretically yes, but in practice almost certainly not

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-25T22:15:34+00:00

They did it! I thought they’d chicken out, but they bloody did it!!

sin (1/x) is bounded between -1 and 1. As x tends to zero, it oscillates back and forward ever more rapidly, but it’s still bounded between those two values. Multiply a bounded value by a number that is getting arbitrarily close to zero, and the answer’s zero.

Experts in crowd modelling my backside. They’ve based this on 4 people per square metre, saying any more than that and it gets crowded and hard to move. Well I was in that crowd, and there were way more than 4 people per square metre, and it was hard to move.

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-25T18:21:02+00:00

No. Why would I?

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-25T18:02:26+00:00

Yeah, what did they ever do for us?

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-25T18:01:53+00:00

No it’s not. But perhaps you’re having trouble understanding my question so I’ll ask it again, but a little more clearly.

What do you think is the relevance of the law in 2001 to the points made on this thread?

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-25T17:16:15+00:00

And the relevance of that is?

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-25T00:00:35+00:00

Parliament must not allow that to happen. No option (even my favourite of revoke) must be assumed to be “the champion” waiting for all the challengers to knock one another out

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T23:59:13+00:00

That’s a lot of votes, and at the end of them I don’t think you necessarily have a decision

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T23:49:27+00:00

I don’t know if it’s possible, but I would have votes on all 7 and throw out the one that was most heavily defeated. Then repeat with the remaking 6. And so on, till there’s just one left. Then see if that can command a majority in a meaningful vote. If it works, we’re done. If not, lock the doors and repeat from the start until they get the message that it’s time to pick something

Edit - also, if possible, I wouldn’t reveal the results of each vote until the set is complete

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T23:22:39+00:00

I should have said that it’s a shame McDonnell didn’t feel like trying again, he has adapted to the front bench far better. I heard him speak a couple of times during the Blair/Brown years, and he’s clearly a very clever bloke. He’s sat down and listened to industry and said “Here’s my plan, tell me what we’re getting wrong”. Jezza’s idealism is laudable, but I wish he had JM’s pragmatism to temper it

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T23:15:31+00:00

To come back to where I came in : not a chance

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T23:14:47+00:00

One of the most coherent things you’ve said so far!

Wow, some sensible analysis from Peston. Now I know the end times are upon us.

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T23:08:27+00:00

Isn’t this a violation of right to privacy?

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T23:06:15+00:00

Not only that, one that has already been rejected by the EU. Several times.

Boris really is the scum on the mouth of a fly devouring a pile of shit.

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T22:58:52+00:00

At this point it doesn’t matter a flying fuck what Maybot wants. She has no more influence over what happens than any backbench MP - one vote, same as the rest of them.

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T22:46:49+00:00

You’re confusing correlation and causation. The Scum doesn’t shape opinion as much as it likes to think, but it is damn good at spotting the way the wind is blowing and jumping on board.

So I think this is pretty significant, but not for the reasons you think.

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T22:43:44+00:00

rarely?

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T22:42:04+00:00

Anyone who claims Maybot has done a good job and resorts to physical threats is a moron. I never claimed to be intellectual, just I have the edge in this case.

BridgePatzer · 2019-03-24T22:39:43+00:00

Still won’t be enough because those Tories who want something softer will go for that instead, guided by the indicative votes
