    Was the will of the people to leave the EU without a deal?

    The people voted to leave the EU. The people voted in MPs who voted overwhelmingly to leave the EU. The people voted in MPs who voted against the deal, three times. Vox populi vox deeeh.

    Nah mate it's Boris who thinks he's God and I think he's stuck his neck out too far and hopefully energised an opposition that was disparate before today. Let's see what happens in Shetland tomorrow for starters!

    Speak to the MPs, those that passed A50, those that have not delivered what they committed to, about contempt.

    Many of the remain supporting MPs voted for the WA. If the ERG had voted to leave the EU like they promised then we'd be in the implementation period by now.

    So vote JRM and his head bangers out at the next election.

    A tweet from Boris's Health Sec. in June:- Matt Hancock
    ✔ @MattHancock




    Proroguing Parliament undermines parliamentary democracy and risks a general election. I rule it out and call on all candidates to do the same.........so I assume he'll resign now!

    Glad the game is almost over. God saves the UK on the last minutes before it turns to become a vassal state of the EU.

    Lets get back to managing the country and ensuring we: do not waste £100 billion on HS2, improve the NHS, invest in programmes outside the SE to ensure a fair distribution of capabilities and wealth, focus on educating our youngsters so they can compete on the world stage, empower businesses and give them the opportunity to become world leaders.


    All stuff that is & always has been totally in the hands of the UK Government.


    How is leaving the EU intended to make a difference?

    Away from order-order.com, the boring reality is that the Queen always acts on the advice of her PM.
    But if it cheered you up, then I'm all for it.
    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.

    I like Boris' line that he's not proroguing parliament to force a no-deal brexit but so he can get on with his exciting legislative plans. When everyone knows you're lying (except those with cognitive dissonance) what's the point of lying?

    The action will at least bring everything to a conclusion. A General Election\Referendum.

    At least then we spend the next two decades discussing the rights and wrongs of the outcome. As UK politics is dead in the water.
