Britain meet Anarchy.

I was listening to a radio call in show talking about Brexit…Surprise! Some old git phoned in and basically said that the decision by the Supreme Court could effectively be ignored because:

1. 200 years ago, if a mother stole some bread to feed her hungry kid she would be hung and we would not do that now.
2. In Germany in the 1930’s they passed some very naughty laws that should not have been followed.
3. In the Middle East today they treat gay people very badly and that is legal to do so in those countries.

Apparently, the cancellation of the unlawful prorogation of Parliament is just like the cruel outmoded and outdated laws, above, that would not fit into our modern society, so OBVIOUSLY it can be ignored.

You would not hang someone today. You would ignore that law because that law would be specious and THIS IS EXACTLY THE SAME THING…

So, the Tory Shire Brexit fuckers really do think, in this nation of laws, they can decide which laws they choose to follow. Let us add arrogant to the adjectives we use to describe this shower.

Britain meet Anarchy.

Anarchy please be gentle as you dismantle 1000 years of democracy building.

Sigh
