      And we are a constitutional monarchy which prevents a coup because such undemocratic action would see power reverting to the crown. Its what has prevented the glorious Marxist revolution all these years.

        A Government of national unity is also a fantacy because they are only formed if the elected party can’t agree a course of action and everyone in the cabinet was put there because they promiced to agree with Borris.

        Like I said, Borris is staying put until he can call an election.

          Of course the result of an election is far from certain but if Borris won a working majority then the in out nonsense would come to an end and we could get on with proper negotiations.

            There is nothing the remoaners can do about Borris without triggering a general election. No one takes power in the UK without one, talk of a coup is fantacy that could and would be stamped on by Royal decree.

              I will say this again too. The government do not want an extension but because of the Benn act it is within the EU’s power to insist on one. The ball is entirely in their court.

                I will just say that again. Deal or No deal there will be NO UK MEPs after the 31st of October unless the EU insists on an extension.

                  Thats not the way I see it Ed. The Government and the Brexit party DO NOT WANT an extension so the threat of disruption is real IF the EU grant an extension. If their is no extension then there will be no UK MEPs so no disruption and we can get on with negotiations on a Nation to EU level.

                    The courts will follow the letter of the law,like it or not, because its all they can do. High price lawyers use loop holes all the time. Its about time the government employed some instead of relying on the old duffers they have on staff.

                      We are also going to get a Queens speech no matter what parliament wants and it will most likely contain lots about the governments intent for Brexit. MP’s have a chance to approve it or to vote it down. If they vote it down then Borris has every right to see that as a vote of no confidence so he can finally call an election.

                        The Benn act was hurriedly composed by a back bencher and it is full of holes. There are no words in it like “The Priminister must respectfully request” so he most likely won’t 😁

                          Nah, it cannot be contempt as there has been no court ruling on the matter. It carefully complies with the Benn acts requirement to ask for an extension so there can’t be any legal action either.

                            Dear Borris

                            In response to you request, you have been granted an extension of 6 months.

                            Yours, like it or not

                            The EU

                              The SD speed class is a mostly useless indicator these days because just about all cards can reach C10. The 2 new ratings are UHS l-lll and Video class V. Have a look at the link above.

                                As it stands at the moment, if you have a retail version of W10, or a retail key, then the licence is technically with the key but will find that if you try to uses the key on  new hardware you will have to ring Microsoft so they can register the new hardware and deregister the old hardware. There is no way you can deregister the old hardware yourself.

                                  Not any more D Dan. W10 registers its self to system hardware these days and a MoBo that has been in a registered system seems to be enough to convince W10 to reactivate without a key.

                                    Dear EU

                                    The Priminister and Government of the United Kingdom do NOT want an extension to article 50 but we are required to ask for one so please consider this letter as our request.

                                    Rest assured that if you grant an extension we will do all in our power to disrupt EU business to the MAXIMUN effect.

                                    Yours I’m not kidding

                                    Borris

                                      My O2 account has the free International roaming bolt on. In the USA the cost would be £4.99 for every day I make a call and that includes 120 min of calls to UK or US numbers plus unlimited texts and data, receiving calls is free. So for 14 days thats an absolute maximum of £70 if I used the phone every day. If you’re on holiday and spend more than 2 hours a day on the phone then I think you are doing something wrong 😁

                                        I think there is a bit of a gotcha if you have a 3 Advanced plan and use Go Roam in the USA.

                                        Calls to the UK are indeed included in your normal allowance and you do get unlimited data but it seems calls to USA numbers are £1.40 min.

                                        Correct me if im wrong 😁

                                            Im not really surprised. It takes some doing to beat a simple dipole designed for the frequency you want to receive, half length, quarter lebgth etc.

                                            Maybe a unidirectional antenna pointing at the mast ?
