Article 50 - Page 3

So do I.

It will allow him to cock a snook at us, his constituents, and at Jeremy Corbyn, the party Leader. Which tells us all we need to know about him...that he might have (misdirected)principles, but they are directed to his own ends rather than those of the town, or for that matter his party.
He has no respect for the people who voted for him or for the party he follows. He would be altogether better out of politics.

I think all the M.P.s that vote against article 50,whichever party they are from,should be SACKED. cos the excuse "My constituents voted to remain" is NOT GOOD ENOUGH, Referendum means will of the people, the people voted leave, so that in a democracy should be that, remove the scum is what i say.

I reckon he will take the cowardly line and abstain.

How could you even think that?

Oh, sorry you're obviously looking at his, pathetic past performance.

Yes, life has looked bleak while he's been in power, but wait, come the next general election, he will alter his stance to include the feelings of the electorate, But, lets not be fooled again.

Even if the other choices are worse. If enough of us void our votes we could force them to start again.

I know it was a comedy film that started it, but why can't we put

NONE OF THE ABOVE?

I have done that in the past, but the last time I was foolish enough to think that this man knew the area, knew the people(many of them personally) and I foolishly thought he cared enough about the town and its constituents to represent us honestly...and that is how he got my vote.

I will not be fooled twice...I would rather eat my own eyeballs with a pickle fork than cast my vote for him again.

Could you please re-read this thread and tell us where our glorious M.P. has been accused of voting against Article 50?

Now, I have to confess to a prejudice against this figure of Labours finest example, ever since his announcement of wanting to leave the E.U. but claiming he would vote to stay.

That does not allow you to put words into mine or any other right thinking persons mouth.

O.K. he's voted for triggering, that doesn't tell us what a hindrance he may or may not become when it is being negotiated.

IF

He represented his constituents we wouldn't be having this conversation, we would be saying bravo Graham for supporting your locals.

IF

You support Graham thats fine, don't just invent a reason to put everyone else down.

I never said that anyone had accused Graham Jones of voting against Article 50 .

Could you please re-read this thread and tell us what some of the political pundits on here said they thought Graham Jones may do when it came to the vote ?

Margaret Pilkington · 02-02-2017, 20:37

I don't think I have ever been called a political pundit before...but I think I could get used to it...and as for being wrong...yes, well that is not something new to me. I was certainly proved wrong when voting for this man - so I guess i had better get used to that as well
