Two fundamental flaws in claims from those trying to thwart Brexit: 1. There needs to be a compromise between Leave & Remain. Nope, it was a binary choice in the referendum. Leave won. There wouldn’t have been a compromise option to keep Leavers happy if Remain had won. 1/3

And thus - a no Brexit, as no version is better than all the benefitswe have as a major player within the EU.

Have you seen what is happening in EU countries. Who in their right minds would want to remain. You are not listening to the people who live in your area who want to leave the EU. Dr or no you seem oblivious to what is going on in your little bubble

I notice your little cabal of rebels. All desperate to overturn the vote but who, strangely enough, campaigned to leave the SM & CU but now ask us to believe them. They are deceitful & not fit for governance. They will be thrown out next election. Drain the swamp as people say.

Actually as most of them stood on a manifesto which agreed to implement Brexit they don’t even have that defence. Any of them who feel it’s time to ask ‘the people’ again could always resign their seat and fight a by-election..bet they won’t.

We operate a representative democracy, one in which we elect MPs to do what they believe is right for their constituents. The very principle of Parliamentary Sovereignty means that the will of the House supersedes that of an advisory vote.

referendum /ˌrɛfəˈrɛndəm/ noun a general vote by the electorate on a single political question which has been referred to them for a direct decision.

Which is not legally binding unless passed by a majority of MPs.

Parliament can’t be bound by the result of a referendum. Or by a promise made by a previous Government.pic.twitter.com/AgGrAq00tT

And it is being delivered. The question was "in or out". In March UK will be out. All the Brexiteers wailing of treason, not true Brexit, not the Brexit we wanted is irrelevant.
-
In March will we be able to make trade deals with other nations? Stop EU vessels fishing our waters? Remove ECJ as the highest court? Be out of the SM? Be out of the CU? If the answer is 'No' then it is not Brexit.
-
I don't remember all these questions on the ballot paper.
-
You should be a politician, you have that skillset of avoiding the question.
-
No. I'm brutally honest. You didn't vote for all these things. You voted for one simple thing: leaving the EU which we are in March. Not my fault you were duped by politicians before June 2016.
-
Leaving the EU meant leaving the things I listed.
-
As I said you were duped by Farage, Gove, Johnson and co. Feel sorry for you.
-
I wasn't duped, I didn't have a vote. However I have seen and read the £9m Pro-EU leaflet that was circulated. It clearly stated what leaving the EU meant.
