As a Brexiteer, I didn't vote to bring back power from the EU to the British Parliament. I voted to bring back power to the British people.

MPs don't get the final say. We, the people, do.
I guess Brendan O'Fuckwit's contribution will be along in the morning.

No matter how mad the left get, they will always get outdone by the frothing right.

So she's for another referendum on the final deal? Interesting. (Can we tweet that to her?)

Done.

Took a while - my "superfast broadband" *cough* is utter shite and has been for a week. Shouldn't have to wait minutes to be able to see latest tweets!

The art 50 process means we leave in March 2019 unless the other EU27 agree to delay the process, regardless of Parliament. They took the important decision age ago, Labour supporting the government.

The effective decision then will be a no deal Brexit, or the deal the government has agreed. As the latter will be better than the car crash of the former, that will be that.

Politically, I also think this bad news for Labour. It will be a re-run of the art 50 vote. Either Labour backs Brexit or it doesn't. There may be a few doughty rebels, as there were last time, but I'd expect Corbyn and McDonnell to whip again for Brexit. For two reasons. First that is what they want. Second it is Labour's tactic to be ever so slightly more Remain-y than the government. So, as the government moves an inch away from Hard Brexit, Labour moves an inch further. Electorally, it has been a triumph. Just a disaster for the people Labour purports to represent.

The real fight is, no doubt, still about to start.

Vote Green.
This is NOT a campaigning site. It's not OK to come here with your 'Vote Green' propaganda. Please take it elsewhere.
Is there a forum rule about this that I am unaware of? Or is it just that you don't like it?
I don't like it. I don't think anyone else likes it. So whether there's a rule or not I think you should desist.

My dictionary says a Forum is "an Internet site where users can post comments about a particular issue or topic and reply to other users' postings; a message board".

This is a Forum. I don't think "Vote Green" is either a comment or a reply.[/quote]

What about,, say "you should vote Green because on this easily the most important issue, they're right and the two Brexit parties wrong." Would that be better? Surely that is a comment?
