It was done - and the result happened But things are better decided by a manifesto commitment and voting at a general election IMHO Imagine if we all voted online for every issue ;)

Don't forget Jeremy Hunt. I actually had to google Health Secretary to remember him, so I already have :)

To be fair to Leanne Wood, the Labour party still rules Wales and she had to admit that Wales doesn't have the resources for independence. So it's rather difficult for her to act powerful and Nationalist :)

And France (hopefully not)

As somebody said in "best letters" Theresa May gets made favorite for PM due to her keeping the referendum campaign at arms length. Jeremy Corbyn gets destroyed for the same.

Is that one who crippled the NHS still in ?

Won't support Crabb due to his views on curing gay people. Not sure if he still holds those views.

The worrying bit for me is references to the media.

McDonnell: Corbyn's going nowhere. Even said he's enjoying it :)

I never ever recognise anybody - at most I get a vague feeling of deja vue (usually because I've met them before). My memory of faces is so terribly bad :)

More crap - They need to be treated similar to the rioters in 2011 http://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/racist-and-homophobic-chants-heard-in-covent-garden-days-after-pride-and-brexit-vote-a3283581.html

Sky saying don't put it in an email unless you want everybody to read it. Someones leaked something :)

Not exactly an astute business model as well as a hate crime. What a jackass.

Some lady has just broken the record of length of time in a cabinet/shadow cabinet 3 days So what happened - was she pressured or did she join knowing she would resign.

PM said he'd hate to see him when he's not trying Ha Ha Dave :)

We have to judge on the next 3 months not few days. There are job losses being announced now - however - judge it in a few months - watch Port Talbot, Nissan etc.

Douglas Carswell just spoke in PMQs and all the other MPs are murmuring and muttering with some saying Racist. Wow.

How times change I remember at about 8 years old hanging around the polling station telling people to vote NO whilst being told by our elders that the country needed YES.

I'd have informed him that people are watching out and noting.

and "Top lawyers have said MPs must still vote to pass an act to repeal the legislation that took the UK into the EU in 1972 if Brexit is to happen."

But how many countries have had referendums - then ignored them 'in the national interest' Seems to have happened 4 or 5 times. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-eu-referendum-ignore-lisbon-treaty-nice-treaty-ireland-greece-france-netherlands-a7105261.html http://www.thelocal.fr/20160628/brexit-rethink-a-look-at-frances-2005-eu-referendum
