THE BREXIT BABY SCENARIO

majority of people in the UK don't want to be in the EU so we need to pull out in time to avoid a new baby boom.

A majority (51.89%) of the UK electorate who chose to express an opinion in a referendum held on 23 June 2016 did indeed indicate that they no longer favoured remaining as a member of the European Union.

That was 1,192 days ago.

Wouldn't it be interesting to discover what the majority of the UK electorate would currently indicate in regard to membership of the European Union?

Should we have a second go at every general election also, if you don't happen to like the result? It would make life very complicated imo.

If 1,192 days were to pass before the government and the MP's were changed then, yes, you probably should have a fresh general election.

Those days have passed because the minority had the PM working for them, now they do not.

A week is a long time in politics, hang around and see what happens.
Start by keeping an eye on the next edition of The Sunday Times, Rupert may have some more interesting revelations to reveal.

Well if  you all keep squealing you may get your way. At the risk of civil unrest mind, but let's not worry about that eh.

Well, if government ministers keep stirring it up, they may well get what they are calling for.
If they were to act like government ministers, rather than allowing themselves to be lead by an anarchist, calm would be the order of the day.

@Angoose

And if remainers had acted like gentlemen they'd have taken defeat with grace, shaken hands and walked away. It appears they would rather see their own country floundering than work towards a decent future.

Have you seen the Yellowhammer report?
Have you seen any plans that describe, in detail, the precise nature of our future relationship with the EU?

The voting for MV3 was as following: Aye 286 No 344

Included in the No votes were 34 Conservative MP's.
If they had voted for the deal approved by their leader, the result would have been as follows: Aye 320  No 310

We would, therefore, have left the EU six months ago if those Conservatives had followed their own leader.

Here are the names of those 34 MP's

William Cash   Theresa Villiers  Suella Braverman  Steve Baker  Sam Gyimah  Ranil Jayawardena
Priti Patel  Phillip Lee  Philip Hollobone  Peter Bone  Owen Paterson
Mark Francois  Marcus Fysh  Lee Rowley  Laurence Robertson  Justine Greening
Julian Lewis  Julia Lopez  Joseph Johnson  John Redwood  John Baron
James Duddridge  Guto Bebb  Dominic Grieve  David Jones  Craig Mackinlay
Christopher Chope  Bernard Jenkin  Anne Marie Morris  Andrew Rosindell  Andrew Bridgen
Andrea Jenkyns  Adam Holloway  Adam Afriyie

Both Theresa Villiers and Priti Patel are in Boris Johnson's cabinet.
Boris Johnson himself had voted against the deal on the previous two votes.

Please feel free to contact these MP's and express your frustration that they voted to prevent "Brexit getting done".

John Redwood, who voted against getting Brexit done on three occasions, is on public record as being a climate change denier.
It is also quite possible that he belives that the earth is flat.

So if Corbyn wins the election and Boris prorogues parliament for 3 years, you agree Labour would then need to win a 2nd election before they could take office ?

He wouldn't be able to prorogue parliament for three years, this weeks Supreme Court ruling has taught us that.
That aside, how could the leader of an opposition party possibly have the authority and access to the required mechanisms to prorogue parliament?

It's simply a hypothetical scenario where a Labour election victory is not implemented for 3 years, just like the Brexit referendum result has not been implemented. If, by whatever unfair method, Labour was prevented from taking office for 3 years, do you agree they would then need to win another election before they could take power ? As their first win 'was so long ago it doesn't really count'. The Prime Minsiter when an election is called is still Prime Minister after the election is lost, until they go to the palace etc

The process of replacing one elected government with another is well understood and well established.
Whereas the process of dismantling forty three years of accumulated political, legal, financial, regulatory, and social ties with an economic bloc is not.

That people would wish that it were, doesn't make it so.
