Basically pointing out that its the will of the people only when the remainers want it to be. 3 hours ago, Top Cats Hat said: It was actually one simple basic question but if you don't actually know what the EU is then it's not that simple anymore. 😳 Yes I realise than and meant to put 2 choices which I'm sure you knew... 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Cats Hat Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 A warning to Brextremists: BE CAREFULL WHAT YOU WISH FOR! Crypto-fascist Hungarian leader Viktor Orban was elected on a massive wave of anti-immigrant feeling! As this has led to an inevitable shortage of Labour, the Hungarian government has passed a law allowing businesses to force employees to do up to ten weeks compulsory overtime a year. And it gets worse. They don't have to pay the overtime for three years! Those clowns who see Brexit as a populist, working class rebellion ought to wonder why there are no working class leaders of the Leave campaign. But strangely, millionaire and billionaire businessmen like Faridge, Banks, Rees-Mogg and Johnson are very keen on Brexit. Now why would that be, I wonder?

"We will leave Europe – for good. " Angel1. I don't particularly care if you have read War & Peace, Cameron's speech was not in there either. But it was delivered by him on the Telly and in Print for all the Remoaners in the Country to read, learn and inwardly digest. Angel1. It doesn’t matter what he said. There was nothing legally binding on subsequent PMs or governments. There’s no getting round that. His judgement was completely shot to pieces by that point. 42 minutes ago, Top Cats Hat said: A warning to Brextremists: BE CAREFULL WHAT YOU WISH FOR!

And that means the referendum result was respected. But it does not follow that continuing the A50 window is in the national interest. Nearly two years down the line we have a lot more information.

But it does not follow that continuing the A50 window is in the national interest. Nearly two years down the line we have a lot more information. I agree. But the triggering of A50 was legally binding on the UK and EU under the terms of A50, even if the government changed it would still have to go through the motions. Its only recently that we know that it can also be withdrawn. 8 minutes ago, Top Cats Hat said: And Parliament can equally reverse the decision, it it has the support of a majority of MPs. Yes that is also true but that has only just been ruled upon after all this time so it a new game-changer. I think it also has to be approved by the other house as well to be accepted.
