Now do Brexit !! We have no choice in that. It is noteworthy that Mr Khan only has three years, following which much of what he will have done could potentially get reversed without too much damage. Let us hope Brexit is not as damaging as predicted, since turning back would be almost impossible. In the meanwhile please feel free to be rude to Scottish and Northern Irish people as they will presumably soon be amongst those 'others' that are the rest of Europe.

Turning back yes, rejoining no. There would have to be some cast iron guarantees not so much from the EU but our own Parliament. We joined a free trade block and agreement changes meant we ended up in a political union which had never been put to the people. I don't trust these lying bar stewards politicians they'd probably try and pull the same trick again. Any treaty changes would have to be approved by a referendum like Eire otherwise I don't care how tempting a deal with the EU is.

Defo but you proved the point about brexiteers not accepting its forever depending on future deals and arrangements. Gets right up remainers noses

I'm not convinced though that is a winning policy however you advertise it. Starting a new knife crime unit to tackle the problem head on would be a better use of money. It's time he did something positive to stop this rather than pretending the issue doesn't exist, (which was pretty much his campaign response when questioned).

You could but you would only appeal to the very small part of the community with a pedant attitude. Just saying
