Judge rules there is no complaint to be had about the Boris bus slogan.
“Lady Justice Rafferty said it appeared that “there would have been no complaint” if Johnson had used a figure of “£350 million per week gross, or £250 million per week net”.”

Hi. A victory for common sense and a great result. Most people are fully aware of the difference between gross and net figures. |

Ahh the fabled £350 million a week lol
That's so old news now especially as the uncertainty over "Brexit" that was meant to free up £350 million a week has already cost us over £600 million a week since the referendum

Sure it was last month, but the high court judges have just given the full explanation of how they arrived at the ruling ...

I'm assuming that you've quoted this from another source?
The quote within a quote was simply clarifying the chap seemed to be focusing on the fact Boris did not say gross or net, and had he had done, there would be no complaint.
The ruling did not seem to say he did not lie, or mislead, simply he was not acting in his public office when he did so. The "lies" came from Boris as a Brexiteer, not Boris as mayor of London.
While it may be seen as a victory for "Common sense" I suspect its not a victory for Boris. |

It was all a bit pointless.
The purpose of the slogan was to appeal to people who value the NHS.
Many of whom do not know what £1000 looks like, never mind millions.
So it was irrelevant really whether it was £350m, £250m or £150m - the effect would have been the same.
"That's a lot of fucking money."
I am looking forward to the slogan on the Labour election campaign bus:
"We send £923 million a week to the bankers. Let's give it back to the people instead."

Technically, there's nothing wrong with the bus slogan. Whether the quantum is correct or not, people misconstrued the slogan as saying Brexit would mean giving that amount of money to the NHS. Some people have described it as a broken promise. It says nothing of the sort. It's two statements. The first one is information (although incorrect), the second one is an idea or suggestion.
The billboard is something completely different and that is what people should be looking at. Everyone is looking at the bus with the slogan on the side and look at it from an angle, legally there is nothing wrong with it. But. The billboard which everyone seems to have forgotten about which is being blocked out by the bus is where this shitstorm should be.
Park the bus. Look at the billboard. |

Yes the uncertainty, which is the fault of remoaner politicians and their toss pot lemmings in the public.
Had we left when we were supposed to, the uncertainty would have ended a long time ago.
Shame on all wanker remoaners! |

Well the the wanker remoaners know what best for the country. Don't want to see businesses go under and jobs be lost not the little Englander brexiters. Well at least if Boris gets in he will not be in long before parliament have a no confidence vote and we see a rise for the lib dems who want to keep us in Europe. |

Oh yeah, the reason I’m not overly keen on Boris winning is because he might stop TBP winning the next election. Trouble is I fucking detest leftists and liberals. If I could press a button and they all dropped dead. Guess what? Ha ha ha! |

That is stupidity at its worst.
The majority voted leave, the minority have used toss pot politicians to stall the procedure, and that caused the uncertainty.
Do you understand?

You were told this would happen. Project Fear you said, it'll be easy you said.
Guess what pumpkin, unpicking decades of integration and reconciling different points of view is hard work.
Democracy reflects life which means it isn't a black and white process where you get to just press a button and get what you want.
This was explained to you prior to the vote. Stop being a child and reap what you sow. |

What a load of shit, it is your lot that have gone against democracy. Just because you lost a referendum you expected to win.
Karma is going to be a right bastard, and the old Guardian reading cunts are going to know it sooo fucking well.
Happy days! |

Well why don't you try and be a bit more civil and rational, instead of being so nasty unhappy and twisted all the time, I'm sure you'd feel the benefit |
