observer Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 See the unelected House of Lords is challenging the Gov over Brexit, and by implication, challenging the people. Time to close it down ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 I wouldn't say it was a challenge to the government but rather a cry to the world outside that they be noticed and treated as somehow relevant. Most commentators agree that it's a mere flea-bite on the government's thick skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy51 Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 Just to digress a little ,i noticed on the news footage of the Commonwealth Leaders conference that the woman who took the government to court over the referendum result was on the stage. Now ,even though she is from a Caribbean country, she isn't a political leader so what was that all about ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted April 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 Think we may be surprised at just how much influence is exercised by such unelected individuals within the London bubble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What i find strange with the Windrush saga is the length of time these people have been in the UK before they were found to be "undesirable". These people had ancestors who fought & died for freedom in the world wars & only found themselves in the Caribbean as a result of ancestors being transported there as slaves probably to benefit Britain. Absolute scandal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted April 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 If everyone who has worked in the UK is issued with an NI number, I fail to see how the mistake was made, as they must be on a data base. Meanwhile, we're getting daily deliveries of illegal migrants in the back of trucks, which don't seem to get deported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
