I cannot speak for everybody or insist they be happy, but they ought to accept it because that's Parliament's job.

The current Parliament isn't though so stupid is it? So your hypothetical situation isn't going to become real just yet.

After a GE it might and then I would accept that that was the will of the people, although I would not be the least surprised if we saw a few MPs start getting cold feet once they got to Westminster and were exposed every day to the reality of what their civil servants told them.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

But why should Leavers compromise? I hate to labour the point but we won. 'Compromise' might be between different views of how our future relationship with the EU pans out but that future has to be outside of it. One less star on the flag. No more MEP's.

And I fully understand your constant point about our Parliamentary democracy. Hence why I struggle to comprehend why you seem to ignore the reality that Parliament voted in huge numbers to give us this vote in the first place and then voted in huge numbers to start the process off, with nothing in that about the necessity of a deal. And then, in the 2017, 80% of votes cast for political parties promising to honour it.

If Parliament wants to revoke A50 then that is their right. Let them do it. Let them s*** all over us. Or, and this is the simplest option, give us another GE.

But there is no compromise over Remain. That option lost. Was rejected on June 23rd.

We only move on as a nation once we have left. Until then, nothing other than anger from those of us voted Leave and expect that to be honoured, just as we were promised.

To you HOL seems like a game, a game of wind up.
If you didnt have people with their POV you would be arguing about traffic lights out of sequence or the length of dog leads.
To everyone involved it was about win or lose and some very clever people still term it as such.
The news reports on 24th June all used the terminology. Remain lost and I voted for the losers but now suspect there is more at play.
300 or so of our 'chosen' high and mighty are preventing the winners getting what they won.
And a few rich business people and lords or whichever they are called.
The political terminology and 'how our politics work' analogies went out of the window. We dont have a written constitution as such. It is mainly done on the hoof. At least in the USA it is black and white.
In the UK it is whomever shouts loudest.
That something in play I said could well be a pride thing with some who are stopping brexit.
Maybe the project fear was actually project 'we are getting torn one, when the public see we can be better on our own'.
No actually proof of how bad it can be along with the fact we can ask to rejoin once we Brexit IF it goes south.
Any rules we would have to accept to rejoin are coming our way in time anyhow.

You've been told enough times about the Law Lords - after about 10 times you notice that the Supreme Court are just them. If you look at their backgrounds, you won't need to look too far in order to deduce what way they would be thinking. Perhaps, if you read each bio ten times you might get a grip on it.
So we now advocate minority governments who cannot make decisions - or at least you do? We ignore all previous precedent, apparently. No wonder the country does not work. Any one of us may as well declare ourself 'leader' and do what we like. You are actually advocating Britain remain broken.

Red and Blue Army!

This site never changes. Someone comes on with a different view to the one expressed in your echo chamber, and does so in a mature, reasonable way. Then you gang up and take the piss, like school kids. Then you complain when we leave and you have no one to rant at!

Classic HOL

If punk ever happened I'd be preaching the law, instead of listenin to Lydon lecture BBC4

Inevitable when one individual contradicts reason and then continues to argue with everyone day after day. He has made the same points 100 times knowing full well that 90% of HOL posters disagree.

Is he hoping to change their minds?
Is he a Remainer activist?
Is he just on a wind up?
