Ah but the EU?

Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union allows a member state to notify the EU of its withdrawal and obliges the EU to try to negotiate a ‘withdrawal agreement’ with that state

once you have decided to leave, in practice, there is no turning back and you must be prepared to leave.

Of course, you could always try asking the remaining 27.
How do you think that would go?

The reality is although it's unlikely parliament will vote against a brexit bill, a vote of no confidence is unlikely and the EU27 would probably need to agree the rug can be pulled at any time.

I really don't think it will but I'm enjoying your highlighted red fonts which suggest you're more nervous about receiving the shaft than you let on.

The EU27 would be most unlikely to agree methinks; they find it difficult to agree on many things after all.

I am so pleased you like my red highlighting though I do wonder at your perceptive skills,which do appear to be somewhat askew.
I have absolutely no reason whatsoever to be nervous, despite your suggestion.
Highlighting was used purely to pre-empt any disagreement or interpretation.

Just be thankful you didn't use Sunburnt Orange. You'd have had an entire psych report laid at your feet.

The part you highlighted doesn't pre-empt anything. It's an interpretation - others are available.

The UK is today prepared to leave, tomorrow they might not be.

Ha ha ha - farcical.
So farcical in fact my response reminds me of !!!! (abbreviated Richard) Emery in his Mandy guise:
"Ooh ..... you are awful " etc.
Without the "like you" bit though.

+ Improving exports - providing better jobs - the kind working class men in particular identify with (they don't want non jobs working for Amazon or call centres)
+ Decent growth
+ New global alliances
+ Rising house prices
+ Full sovereignty coming ever closer
+ EU slow to respond to a fast changing world - dreadful at agreeing trade deals, becoming less relevant in a bi-lateral world




There is no chance people will be wanting to stay in the Brussels squabble club
