Nope. I've read and re-read and re-read this again, and I haven't the faintest idea what you are actually trying to say here.

All fair points. But Lord D seemed to be looking for some kind of justification for re-running the vote before the previous one had been enacted. The fact that it was non-binding would appear to be a more than valid reason.

All of which completely ignores the fact that the 2016 referendum was non-binding and advisory.

Well, you're absolutely right in that respect. The majority of Labour voters voted remain, but are being led by someone who, despite having voted remain himself, would actually rather leave. Conversely, the Tory voters, who mostly voted leave, are being led by someone who voted to remain and, despite constantly declaring that leave means leave, seems to be surreptitiously trying to scupper Brexit completely. It really is a #mess.

But you repeatedly say you don't want a re-vote and that the 2016 result must be respected or it will cause further unrest. So how would Labour campaigning for it help the situation in your eyes?

I dunno. I seem to remember Cameron at least paying lip service to the actual questions asked before giving fashion advice to Corbyn (though that seems so long ago now, given everything that's happened since his disappearing act).

And what if they did have a plan? How would that detract from the utter shambles this government has become?

FWIW, I think PMQs is just a pointless pantomime. It doesn't matter what Corbyn gets up and asks May, she will never give a straight answer anyway, because she never once has. All she can do is spin every question round into some sort of attack on Labour, as if they are the ones responsible for the total catastrophe we currently find ourselves in. It's risible.

Ah, so you're saying the contest last time was flawed because people who would be directly affected by the result were not given the opportunity to cast a vote? I see.

Absolutely this. People seem to forget that it was only around 18 months ago we voted him our player of the year. If we can get him back to the form he showed playing for Puel then he would make a big difference to our overall defensive play.

Where were you looking exactly?

And yet as far as the BBC are concerned, the biggest story is the fact that the FCO are blaming the hack on the Russians, and not the revelations themselves. Hardly surprising. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-46509956

Kudos to David Cameron for never deleting this tweet.

Very little to laugh about over Brexit at the moment, but this has brought some comic relief from the total f*cknuttery going on... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucJ6RPez06s

Yeah that was him. Just had a look at his record on Wiki, and he really didn't go on to great things. Biggest club he ever played for was Nice, where he got 2 goals in 14 appearances. After that, there's not a single club I've ever even heard of.

Who was the young Italian lad who scored shedloads for the reserve team a few years back but never got a chance in the first team?

I agree with your first and third points, but Davis in for Romeu? What have you been smoking? Romeu was our second best player yesterday (behind Lemina), and Davis has never shown any evidence of being able to play that role. It would be suicide to play him there against Arsenal.

Really? From what I saw, Bednarek was much more calm and composed, with only one dodgy moment where he lost possession in a dangerous area. JV might have won a few headers, but aside from that he was an accident waiting to happen for the entire match. He got dispossessed numerous times, and it was obvious that Cardiff were targetting him as a weak link.

Yep I agree. McQueen at least looks physically more like a real footballer, whereas Targett is just far too lightweight and slow. He gets brushed off the ball too easily and he's scared to put in a tackle. He made it so easy for Mendez-Laing to get past him time and time again yesterday. it was pathetic and painful to watch. The only time I have ever seen him be even slightly effective is when he played as LWB with Bertrand behind him on the left of a back 3. But I doubt very much we will see that system from RH.

I never want to see Vestegaard or Targett in a Saints shirt again. Bother of them were L2 standard at best today. I don't think I have ever watched a Saints team make so many individual errors in one game. If we had been playing Man City today they would have got a rugby score. Might have been a different story if the ref hadn't been such a useless pr!ck and given us at least one of the two blatant penalties, but that would have flattered us. We were woeful in defence and ineffective in attack. Don't recall their keeper making a single save. I didn't expect us to look immediately better under the new manager, but I also didn't expect us to put in our worst performance of the season by a country mile either.

F*cking ell ref? That's another stonewall penalty not given!!

Yay. JWP coming on. Just what we need when we're chasing a game and need some inspiration.

Only a matter of time before one of our CBs' howlers lead to a goal. Absolutely unforgivable, that.
