“No-one on the leave side doesn’t want free trade with Europe,” prominent pro-leave MEP Daniel Hannan just said on BBC News.

As far as Europe goes, it should be possible to stay inside an arrangement with the EU with bilateral deals, which would allow for free movement, but what we will not have are foreign courts deciding who can come into the UK.

Makes perfect sense really.

So Hindle, I assume that Corbyn will get beaten when the membership is consulted so then should be okay...must have been mistaken when I thought he walked the election last year

Perhaps you want 'long-term members' to get double votes?

The left had to live through purges in the Blair years and deselections.......

A mere outlining of what is happening.None of it untrue.

To answer,even though none of them were relevant to any points I did or didn't make if there were any there in the first place.

1.I think he will get back in,yes he did,unless traitorous Blairites have historically revised all records.
2.The relevance of the mention of "long term" was to emphasise how thoroughly disloyal they obviously are,not to give them a higher status.You can take from.that my view of "having two votes"
3.No mention of left/right ,purges,deselections etc was contained,my memory is longer my whole bloody local party got suspended and membership scrutinised,so I am not unaware of such things.

4.Above all,not wise to take me seriously.

i value all the views here but I don't want Corbyn to trigger article 50*. I don't think it's an answer to anything at this stage, and doing it because someone else said we would is not really a good enough reason. have read and agree with views on democracy etc, but this is a godawful mess and we need to consider rightly of the matter before deciding how to proceed. 2 years is a very short time to sort out this scale of bollx - I don't think we can do it.

I think we should trigger A50 - it was us who had the referendum and ignored the warnings

Why should we wait......and the people who voted Leave have made it clear they don't care so who are the minority to deny them what they want?

Yes it was...it was in the manifesto of a majority elected Government....when I say 'we' I mean the British people. Carried by a majority of 6 to 1 in the HoC

It was a crap idea but surely that is what democracy is about?

It may be in Britain's short term favour to delay but I think it will just postpone the reckoning and destroy our credibility further

If you read article 50 you will understand why triggering it is a stunningly bad idea.

Sorry to have a pop but Corbyn is utterly irresponsible ( bordering on treasonous) to suggest it.

I wonder who they will vote for come a GE?

Actually there is a bit of a surge in membership again. People are joining Labour so they can support Corbyn.

It's a genetic thing. I've got non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and doc thinks I'm at the beginning of drug induced cirrhosis. My readings are still out of whack although they're gradually coming down. I daren't risk it kicking it off, so am nursing it along because I've refused further investigation while Mr Ohso is ill.
I'm afraid it's tee-total all the way until I get the thumbs down, then I'm breaking out the gin with a vengeance.

I have read it......it isn't particularly long and the words aren't too difficult for me.

The reason we cannot trigger A50 is that the Leave group haven't got a plan....and are totally disorganised - a shambles in fact

Cameron said he would trigger it and didn't - another lie!

I firmly believe that going out will cause harm to the people who voted for it. If more than half of MPs also believe that it will cause more measurable harm to do it than not, is it ethical to go through with it?

My feeling is no.
