No. Because they are signed up to a monetary union. Short of dropping out of the monetary union, they have to abide by the rules that they signed up to. They may be crazy but they are not totally mad.

No. You said when the people have made an obvious mistake ( I think that’s what you mean) they can change their mind.

France has a government and whatever happens they know where they are next week. They are talking and views are being taken into account.

Yes. No problem with that. People can change their minds when they see the cock up they created.

A bit like Brexit, but Brexit is politically worse.

No. It was a massive majority. The will of the people.

I think a run off a week later of the First 2 preferences ( a bit like in France at the Presidential Election ) forces at least 50%, but probably would return a higher margin. That way all options were on the table and it is reduced to the 2, and 1 will be the actual „will of the people“ as...

Disagree on that. Good news for parliamentary sovereignty. Even it is a mess. Parliament is deciding. If the people don’t like it they will get to vote the government out. Hopefully we/ you will get a GE to give this mess back to the people, or a second referendum. The fact that this is being...

No. Not at the moment. It’s seasonal.

Our parliament does. Always has, apart from things like the curvature of bananas.

He’ll lose that right if we leave.

That’s democracy. We have a sovereign parliament. You missed that in your calculations.

It’s more Brexit. Government policy.
