You think? LOLReally feels like we have to be bottoming out here. Surely it can’t get any more stupid and insulting than this.

But a good deal better than Pinochet, no?Agree, but it is the Labour Party behind this disgusting erosion of parliamentary democracy and genocide backing.
Starmer’s Labour Party are no better than Boris Johnson and a lot worse than Thatcher,
I remember the good old days when parliamentarians had guts. Having Moscow’s goons poisoning people to death in England did not deter Her Majesty’s Foreign and Commonwealth Secretary from travelling without ministerial security to an overnight party with Moscow goons in Tuscany and travelling back pissed in just his work suit the next day. They were real men back then, not like this lot running scared from retired school teachers in keffiyehs they got out of Oxfam.If, as The Speaker claims, he accepted the amendment on the grounds of safety for MPs, that threat in itself is surely a subject for a full Parliamentary discussion and not tacked onto a derailed Opposition Day matter.
All seems a bit....tacky
Absolutely terrifying imho - the same head on three different bodies at the same time albeit poorly disguised with different (bad) hair cuts - either that or it’s the Norfolk branch of the friends of Palestine (a husband with his dad/brother and wife-mother-sister combo).
Starmer is a liar, he is corrupt, a supporter of genocide and now someone who is undermining democracy.But a good deal better than Pinochet, no?
The differences in wording between the Labour & SNP motions was very slight. The former were just trying to do political damage rather than be sensible & come up with a solution.
It’s all moot at Israel won’t take any notice. It just shows how pathetic Parliament is with their out moded traditions which don’t seem to prevent Tories being venal & other being opportunistic (at best).
If Hoyle goes they’ll be some other vampire waiting in the wings that will be even worse. Then again, he does talk a bit funny & probably didn’t go to the right school. Let’s carry on with jolly japes & Cameron cosplaying around the world as a statesman.

The SNP motion stated Israel is undertaking "Collective punishment" clearly true and a war crime, excluded by Labour. Also Labour watered down the type of ceasefire being debated. These are significant changes especially if you have sympathy with 30,000 murdered Palestinians, 2m imprisoned Palestinians, or on the other hand, are a Zionist Labour party donorThe differences in wording between the Labour & SNP motions was very slight.

And aren't we constantly told (after 911, after 7/7, after Westminster Bridge, Brighton Bombing etc etc) that "Nothing any terrorist does, will interfere with our democracy, or stop us conducting our lives as normal."I can certainly understand some level of anxiety amongst MPs - and their families - about the threats and risks of violence they've been faced with in recent years. More than one MP has been murdered because they were an MP. I'm sure they got lots of threats and some need t be taken very seriously.
But that's a matter for them and the police, etc, to deal with as appropriate. Not something that should inhibit or distort legitimate political debate or systems.
WRT to the specific debate and the Speaker' decison, that should not have been affected by the above. It was one of the SNP's opposition days. Any change of that - e.g. to a different day - should only happened with their prior consultation and agreement.
Palestine, the problem they must make go away.And aren't we constantly told (after 911, after 7/7, after Westminster Bridge, Brighton Bombing etc etc) that "Nothing any terrorist does, will interfere with our democracy, or stop us conducting our lives as normal."
And yet groups of concerned UK pensioners and law-abiding citizens, holding cardboard signs on sticks, brings our parliament to a screeching halt? Someone is talking shite.
Yeabutt he didn’t seize power in a military coup, preside over a 17 year reign of terror/dictatorship with 40k people disappearing.Starmer is a liar, he is corrupt, a supporter of genocide and now someone who is undermining democracy.
Only the most morally vacuous can defend such a loathsome human being.
