If the court decides all UK devolved parliaments must vote then if any one of them votes against continuing with brexit that's it, doesn't matter what the rest vote. Given that both Scotland and NI voted no I'd say its pretty risky for May, assuming this isn't all a plan to stop brexit happening.

So everyone knew exactly what vote leave meant but two of the most high profile figures of the leave campaign, Farage and Johnson, had totally different views. Has there ever been a more blatant lie than the official vote leave bus having £350m to the NHS plastered down the side of it. We don't...

How have you worked that out? Scotland voted remain, if the Scottish parliament rules with the majority in the country they are the parliament of they will vote against invoking article 50.

So it looks like May could have shot herself in the foot by appealing to court. Scotlands Lord Advocate is applying to speak at the trial. This could very well lead to a ruling that not only does it have to be voted on in the Commons but also in the UK's devolved parliaments.

Seating was £15 at Morecombe wasn't it? £12 for standing.

Maybe some people voted for that extra £350m a week on the NHS we were going to spend. Farage, Johnson, Gove and the others were falling over each other in the rush to distance themselves from campaign claims as soon as leave won.

That's the one, looks pretty interesting. Don't know if they're going to go straight into the second series to get caught up with the US.

Couple of similar things on C4 this Thursday that could be worth a watch. 9pm is a documentary about British prisons, supposedly a lot of it was filmed illegally by prisoners using mobiles. Then at 10pm the first episode of 60 days in jail. Its an American doc where they put 7 innocent members...

Oddly when they seem to be struggling to fill time next weeks is a feature length episode.

Don't agree with that at all. How many people, if they were unexpectedly to lose their jobs, could sustain themselves through a few months of unemployment. If you have a mortgage that's not covered by benefit. You're likely to have credit to pay, be it car loans, credit cards or something else...

I suppose the difference is with a general election you pretty much know what you're getting when you vote for a particular party. Of course they all spout rubbish but you pretty much know where you stand with any party. And of course the worse case scenario you only have to wait 4 years to...

So you're saying I shouldn't have booked my hotel for Wembley?

I like the elephant, shame the council are knocking it down.

Has this years team photo been taken yet? One thing Pompey did was you could have a photo taken with you as part of the team photo. Can imagine you'd get some interest in something like that.

Think locals will pick up on the change eventually but to anyone outside Cov it will be the Ricoh, as you say everyone still refers to Bolton as the Reebok. One of the few things we managed to get right in ensuring the project didn't have a name that would stick prior to getting a sponsor.

Anybody going to be staying up tonight to watch the coverage? I do like a bit of election coverage. Remember listening to R5 last time round and they played some of what was being broadcast on American talk radio. Unbelievable the BS they are allowed to broadcast over there.

We also lost to them in a pre-season friendly when we were still in the top division and they were right down the other end of the league. I remember as I was working in Cambridge and used to go watch them play regularly but of course went in the away end for that game. Remember Telfer blazing a...

Work first started on that in March 2004, in May 2009 they decided to proceed with negotiations and it took until August 2014 to conclude negotiations. At that point in needed to be agreed by all the member states, the European Council and the European Parliament. Its still batting back and...

So hang on, CCFC's contribution to Wasps is negligible, they apparently don't need us there and their business plan works fine without us. But they aren't signing a multi-million pound naming rights deal as CCFC haven't agreed a long term deal to stay which will increase the value of the rights...

That's the problem, its a business plan that relies on pumping millions in hoping for promotion, and even then tens of millions in loans from the owner have been written off, and then managing to stay up once there. Great if it works but not so good for all the other teams using the same plan...
