100 Days - 52
Day 52
"Mr Speaker, today is indeed a historic day, a dark day, it will be remembered as the day the UK government obstructed the people and plunged the United Kingdom into an unprecedented constitutional crisis.
The prime minister says he would rather die in a ditch than write to seek an extension to protect our economy from falling off the cliff edge, if that is the course he chooses then he must resign. Undermining democracy at every turn, [Johnson] simply cannot be trusted.
The rule book has been well and truly ripped up, and with it democracy and decency shredded by a cult of Brexit fanboys in No 10 unfit and unwilling to govern. Mr Speaker, what a despicable state of affairs, that an unelected bureaucrat - the prime minister’s lead advisor, is sitting in No 10 devising and directing an assault on democracy, preventing parliamentary scrutiny and transparency
And should we be surprised, these are the men behind the biggest con in modern times."
