lmao.

As I said earlier tho, dont take anything serious that comes out of Martin Schulz mouth. After the elections he said he doesnt want to allign with CDU/CSU, now he rethinks. The man is a laughing stock, barely anyone takes him serious here

Anyone else thinks that M. Schulz always lowkey looks like he is about to off himself?

[Duuring]

Maybe Schultz just wants to avoid having to form a coalition with Merkel and so throws this out so that Merkel will refuse.

US system seems to be a sensible compromise.

Are we seriously talking about the same US? Even the UK currently is better because it has some diversity due to regional contexts. You also focus too much on parliaments role in governing, instead of parliament's true purpose: Representation and law-making.

Added a poll on the german elections.

That 4th option fucking killed me

Theresa loses in the commons with her own backbenchers being the catalyst.

I'll be worried if you are genuinely surprised by this.

I'm not, I never said I was. Just commenting on it.

But I wanted Parliament to be sovereign, and now they're meddling by having another vote to prove their sovereignty and that's not why I voted to Brexit

Dunno why people are mad over this-Parliament can say either 'yes' or 'no' on the final deal. That's it. It's not really something you can say 'no' to anyway as it's either the deal on offer or WTO rules. The only thing those pro-EU rebels have done is to make a 'Hard' Brexit a bit more likely. As I understand it there was going to be a vote on it anyway, so this is political posturing that may come back to bite Soubry/Clarke/etc on the ass by 2019.
