Another setback, but it’s not the end of the world! If he rehabs it properly he can hopefully come back strong. Personally, I think the club handled his rehab well, because he was playing for about 2 months before it went again. This is just bad luck. Surely the amount of ACL’s can’t just be...

Well, that’s what we ‘the people’ were told during the referendum. Another false premise of the Leave campaign.

You really are in complete denial about the reality the country finds itself in. Britain cannot get this deal through Parliament and the government therefore, needs to break the deadlock by deferring to the public again. Something needs to be done and right now, the EU has said it won’t...

What a way to shut down debate. Your solution is a ‘no deal’, that is not what the British people voted for. The only reason you’re against a second referendum is because you’re running scared.

... it is a bad deal, which is telling about the state of Brexit since it isn't actually that bad all things considered. How would you break the deadlock? I'm interested in anyone's opinion.

It goes deeper than polling numbers. Last time I looked, a vote tomorrow would yield a 55% win for Remain (note: I don’t take this as gospel). This suggests a couple of things, that the public are not happy with a Brexit process and/or the deal May is bringing back to the country. Public opinion...

Please stop talking nonsense, you’re just wrong. Its mainly the DUP and ERG MPs (Brexiteer Tory backbenchers) which is stopping Theresa May’s Brexit deal.

Jacob Rees-Mogg was right when he said the PM has lost the confidence of Parliament. The government is in a position where it cannot pass the deal of what it was elected to do. The result here is the government seeking a renewed mandate and calling a general election. However, with the timeline...

Answer me this. The Brexit deal is going to be rejected in parliament. This means Brexit is on halt because it cannot be passed and therefore cannot be finalised. What is your solution? No one has answered this question. Look, Brexiteers such as Rees-Mogg and Galloway, on the left and right of...

What uni did you go to and what on earth did you study?

George Galloway also holds the opinion that May's deal is so bad, it's better to remain a full member of the EU than to leave on those terms. He's calling for a general election, which, we know a change in PM via May resigning or that of a new government won't change the negotiation position of...

Yes, the government is choosing to commit to Brexit, but, technically the result of a referendum is not binding to the government. There’s a fundamental difference to following a referendum result and a referendum being legally binding. Referendums are not legally binding, this is a fact, not...

That referendum was only called because it was part of the Conservative and Lib Dem coalition. The Conservatives (or Labour) we’re never enthusiastic about this potential reform and certainly wouldn’t have called a referendum themselves. Governments tend to respect the result of referendums, as...

That was AV, which is a hybrid system of first past the post and proportional. That was for the Commons and not the Lords. For me, a hybrid system is the worse of both worlds. You don’t get strong majorities like in the current system, at the cost of having a system that isn’t even that...

Nope.

The House of Lords question is an interesting one. I’ve not really made my mind up on it because there’s no reforms on the table. On one hand, it’s independent and does provide an important oversight without impeding the Commons. On the other, it doesn’t have the power to hold the government to...

I’m uneasy with the concept of a grand coalition. A good friend at uni is German and we spoke about its merits. The SDP membership are starting to get fed up with the grand coalitions because junior coalition partners usually suffer in elections. The CDU don’t want to enter a coalition with the...

Michael Gove pinched Boris out of the leadership race in 2016 and Gove wasn’t popular enough to beat May. They’ve got themselves to blame. In fairness to Theresa May, her deal isn’t that bad and has been, in my view, overly committed to Brexit. That said, she’s not drummed up support for her...

Frankly, this conversation shows that if anyone is 'brainwashed,' it is you. Most of my lecturers were actually on the centre-right, I had two lecturers who were on the left and neither peddled their ideologies in their lecturers or seminars. Most students are centrist and I know more people...
