Two Conservative Vice Chairs Resign.

[Gromit]

Never heard of them.
Apparently the Tories have NINE Vice Chairs.
Will there be anyone left, when will this madness stop ?

The quaint custom is that MPs cannot resign as such while parliament is sitting. They have to apply for the stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds or Manor of Northstead, both purely notional offices of profit under the Crown which disqualify them from sitting in the Commons.

Well researched.

[Jackdaw33]

Not researched - from my store of basic knowledge.

IT is time every Leave voter sent Collaborator May a white feather in the post.

We want a symbol for betrayal rather than cowardice, don't we, Youngmafbog?

[youngmafbog]

Yes but she has also displayed a lot of cowardice too IMHO.

They're taking a while to collect their 48 requests, aren't they ? What are they waiting for; an anticipated EU rejection ?

(Meanwhile I read Merkel says that it's good to have UK proposals on table. I don't think she can have been paying attention. She's had many proposals from us; what she has now is the latest May concessions.)

The red dahlia symbolises betrayal and dishonesty .... just a quick google.

I think that by staying she is only delaying the inevitable.
