Her nationality is British

jno....(00:47)....You are right of course, but the difficulty is that whether she is Asian or not really isn't the point of AOGs post.

Its just another excuse to have a go at Miller, for having the temerity to challenge Mrs May, in the High Court....a case in which Miller won hands down.

[Davemano]

^^^^^^^ And this is just another excuse to have a dig at Mrs May. Miller didn't win hands down, the decision was given against the tories because of an ancient law.

[mikey4444]

dave.......yes she did win !

8 out of the 11 Judges in the Supreme Court upheld the earlier decision made in the High Court.

It doesn't matter whether you agree with the law or not, and you clearly don't, but that is the decision that was made.....Mrs May lost...twice.

[Davemano]

Little do you know about me and the law - you would be very much surprised.

[mikey4444]

dave....if you think that having a victory at both the High Court and the Supreme Court, isn't winning the case, then I would seriously doubt any ability that you might have when it comes to legal matters.

[Davemano]

Also, I didn't say that I didn't agree with the law, I simply said the court case was won because of an ancient law.

[mikey4444]

dave....backtracking now then it seems !

You said "Miller didn't win hands down"

And you were wrong, because she did win, twice.

Make your mind up dave !

[Davemano]

No argument that the case was won, but the law had to be complied with which resulted in the decision.

[mikey4444]

Well...I am glad that we sorted that out then...she did win after all !

What Ms Miller was contesting was the binding nature of the referendum: Ok, Parliament had assented to a popular vote on the issue of withdrawal from the EU, but retained the right to ignore it. "Advisory" was the weasel term, wasn't it? That was her position (legally upheld and if you read the referendum bill then rightly so).

Honest people, however, (I would like to include Mikey in that set) all knew that Parliament had deferred the issue to plebiscite (thus renouncing its own sovereignty in this special case) and would accept the result, however grudgingly and despite any qualms of individual members of any party. "We will honour your decision" (Or some such). Have I got that wrong?

This moral point was of no interest to Ms Miller. Our Gina wasn't winning a victory over Theresa May, she was saying to all those who voted to leave "Stuff you - I've got got the letter of the law on my side.".

Oh yes there is, may I suggest a trip to specsavers?

Please don't try and tell others what the point of my post was, because it is clearly laid out in my question.

We all know that is how your lefty brainwashed mind works, but please don't class mine the same.

aog; OK, I missed page 1, but from your link;
// two fossils of an ape-like creature which had human-like teeth have been found in Bulgaria and Greece, dating to 7.2 million years ago.//

I think a lot more scientific evidence would be required to show that was an accurate assessment of such scant evidence. e.g. carbon dating can be wildly compromised.

It is overwhelmingly evident the homo sapiens originated on the Savannah plain, there are genetic maps to demonstrate the outward spreading from there geographically and in time, this is without a shadow of doubt.

I'm sorry aog, but beneath your whitey exterior, there's a darker one deep in there somewhere. :0)

p.s. Alf Garnett didn't like it either.

AOG...your question didn't fool me for one minute....your real agenda was blindingly obvious.

You had your answer at 10:24 yesterday.

It is you and not I that seems to have trouble with 'missing links' as proven.

So I think you had better leave this one to those experts of anthropology.

But please don't let that stop yourself from making an 'apology' to me.

And please refrain from making your snide racist remarks towards me.

Oh yes it does work both ways, but you wouldn't think so.

/// You had your answer at 10:24 yesterday. ///

What a simple answer 'NO' from a person who did not produce any evidence whatsoever.

Since then we have been told she is now South American, South American/Caribbean, Indo/Caribbean and British/Guyanese

[jackthehat]

///Since then we have been told she is now South American, South American/Caribbean, Indo/Caribbean and British/Guyanese ///

Which answers the question as to whether she is Asian, or not....

[mikey4444]

Jack....lol ! You can lead a horse to water......

If she is described as British-Guyanese how did she manage to be the most influential person of African or African-Caribbean heritage in Britain, with not a drop of African blood in her body?
