    I voted BP but think that turning their backs wasn't the right thing to do. Far too aggressive. If they wanted to protest, just sitting down for the "anthem" might have been better. It was a last minute decision, apparently, unlike he Libdems with the dirty T shirts - obviously premeditated.

    Small beer in any case.

      Sinn Fein MPs, whatever you think of their politics, stand by their principles. That’s why.

      Sinn Fein MPs don’t take a salary. That’s also why.

      Sinn Fein MPs actually do constituency work. Another reason those dickheads are not at all like Sinn Fein.

        Obviously disrespecting the EU is part of their negotiating tactic
        Confusion is a natural state of being

          and they haven't blown up any women and children on a morning's shopping trip either.

          Another reason

            Probably the 27 other EU countries that the EU parliament represents. I don't particularly like the US government but I would not turn my back when they play their national anthem. Well, what can one expect from a prospective PM who call the French "turds". This sort of behaviour will trickle down to the Brexit thugs in the street, we can only wait for the next stabbing by a Brexiter.

                  Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
