These are changes to our Democratic processes that no one voted for and have largely been carried out by stealth


Democracy is a real bitch when it doesn't go your way.

Also I understand your anger. I would be annoyed if I discovered I was sold a lie.


Is that like when we voted to leave and now remainers are doing their best to stop it? Yeah, democracy is a bitch.

You do know that that tories are talking about entering into an electoral pact with Farage.

Also they only formed the current government after entering into a confidence and supply agreement with the DUP


How do you know what people voted for? I know plenty of leavers who’d be happy with a no deal so they obviously knew. I know a few who want a deal. I know a lot of remain voters, myself included, who are utterly disillusioned and angry at this cropnof clowns for not getting us out.

It’s easy for remoaners to say people didn’t know what they were voting for because it’s easier for them to justify trying to over turn a democratic vote in the name of democracy. Like you’ve said, democracy is a bitch when it don’t go your way.

Sorry the northern irish issue is just too complicated and sensitive to just let english democracy destroy it. Proper proposals are essential and obviously needed fast.

Many of those tories who voted against Bojo this week voted for May's deal. Bojo voted against May's Withdrawal deal twice. He then voted for her deal. That's the same deal he now wants to renegotiate. Clear as mud.

So who was trying to block the UK leaving the EU on those occasions when Bojo and the others were voting against May's deal? Who was doing their best to stop the UK leaving the EU then. The hypocrisy is breathtaking

Apparently you seem to know what people voted for. After all you did say "Knowingly or not, people voted to leave without a deal".

People,who voted leave were assured by Gove and Bojo among others that there would be a deal. (see quotes elsewhere)

By the way it was you who first suggested that people didn't know what they were voting for. (See your quote above)

I see Rudd has found her conscience.

Better late than ever I suppose.

Cabinet minister resigns, I think at this pace it would be easier to call the Tory party the Brexit party...But wait a minute, that brand is already taken by Farage. The new episodes is getting better, I think getting the PM jailed for not obeying the law will be the next high point.

I get an idea from travelling and meeting people in my country. Mainly through work or other work colleagues who all knew what they were voting for. Some want a deal some don't. Some wanted to remain. But ALL to a man and woman want it sorted in whatever way possible. Even a no deal is better than this nonsense.

And yes we know leave campaign lied. That’s nothing new and no real shocker from politicians. Your man Steptoe also lies as he said he’d respect the result. I suppose he’ll do that only when he thinks he can win an election? And there would’ve been a deal by now if they ALL had stopped playing politics with this.

Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation. You were deputed here by the people to get grievances addressed but are yourselves become the greatest grievance

Oliver Cromwell 1653

The dates may change but the situation doesn't 400 years on. In thòse days parlíament was a drunken mess consisting of Lords who looked after their own personal interests and regarded the ordinary people as sub human. Not really massively different today is it ?
