Kind of irony that he cites a convention created before we had a civil war to establish parliamentary sovereignty

How does this work if no one option gets more than 50%?

You also have to note that immigration is a significant issue with remainders. Has pretty consistently been around 40 % that say it was too high and needed various levels of reduction. Attitudes to immigration compared to other EU populations are not wildly different in the main. If any other...

It's only the 2 Gloucs bowlers in so far?

very thin. only about 4 middle order batsmen left - Hain. Hose, Lamb,Banks. not encouraging. Farbrace going to have to earn his money. openers need to kick on.

Really an upgrade on Tannehill or just more cap savings? Had a little run last year over a few games. Dolphins better draft because Fitzpatrick isn't taking them through a season.

What data are you using for that? Thought it was about 175 that campaigned for remain.

any Brexit deal gets passed in Parliament is not going to go to a referendum.

problem it's a fixed time period across EU. EU can't move elections. By law a minimum of 10 weeks to allow campaigning for a referendum plus about 12 weeks for electoral commission to decide on what the question would be, Was reported it would probably take 6 months to set up a referendum at...

problem with that it's a 6-8 month delay which again raises the issue of euro elections.

You can't seem to grasp that background to Brexit isn't some new phenomena created 3 years ago. Historical apathy to Europe goes back much further on a cross party voter basis. 1975 referendum Labour was split on remaining in EEC. Labour conference in 1975 overwhelmingly voted to leave. 1983...

be about the quickest way to break EU. Can't see Italy, Greece or Visegrad even bothering to put that to the test

But most of his suggestions here would suggest again a centralization of powers at the expense of individual states. Already wide concern over things like this in Visegrád group and others as well as the recent bilateral consensus between France and Germany over their approach to EU. Even...

tbf Cameron promised to as well.

where do you think the roots of Brexit started? Back then over 70% (far higher than current demand for 2nd referendum)wanted a referendum on Lisbon (which several other countries gave their voters). Another example where Parliament decided not to keep its election promises and decided the people...
