    I'm laughing at us. Never have I ever been more embarrassed to be British.

    The reasons why many people voted leave do still exist. You're right. They've been put forward in this very thread. A huge number of Leave voters don't like to see and hear foreigners in the town centre. That's the nub of it. It might not be your reason I'll grant you. But that's what swung the Leave majority in conjunction with the lies which you seem to imagine don't matter now they've been exposed as precisely that.
    Right that's me out. Had enough of going round in circles for today.

    oh come on - The people have had a say! Oh the irony! This is about seizing the initiative.
    Foot stamping arrogance and highly presumptuous! Can’t see the link - sorry!

    Some industries (farming and manufacturing) are likely to be badly hit by Brexit - the chief economist advocating Brexit predicts the managed end of both industries. Exporting service industries are also likely to be affected, with a knock-on affect on other service industries - if the IT, Legal or banking company lays off people that will then affect companies that supply them - cleaners, taxi drivers, pubs, etc.

    Even those industries that aren't affected, are under pressure from automation - self-driving cars and chatbots are likely to remove a big chunk of driving and call centre job in the next decade.

    Very few industries are likely to remain unscathed, and even if you are not directly or indirectly affected, then your family and friends will be.

    Every single person in the UK took a ~1% pay cut this morning.

    That is a specious argument. MPs are not delegates. The referendum was a 'free vote' not based on party policy which is why both main parties have MPs with differing views. Our parliament is sovereign and as a parliamentary democracy the result of a referendum has to be ratified by parliament. What Johnson is doing is contrary to the parliamentary democratic principles. This is probably the genesis of the greatest constitutional crisis since the civil war.

    It’s pretty clear that they know they would lose a second referendum.

    One thing defo needs investigating now...

    John Bercow clearly overstepping his remit. used to like him, but he is taking sides and as he did before is likely to break tradition again to appease remain MP's.. Boris suspending parliament for a new queens speech for a massive 4 days is his right as a new PM. Bercow already broke tradition for remain a few months ago, he will do it again.. Still forgetting that remain did actually lose the 2016 referendum and that no deal has been the legal default position for 3 years..

    Shame remain never get called to account for their cheating. Probably stole millions of votes with our own chancellors lies alone.. That combined with spending tax payers money sending remain leaflets to all households when leave were not allowed the same.. Balance it up against the porkies claimed against leave, probably would have ended up 70 - 30 in favour of leave.

    And a bunch of MP’s that have a total regard for the votes of around 17 million other people and the future of our country.

    Where did it say we would leave and not uphold our commitments which we pledged whilst in the EU?
    This isn’t at all about seizing any initiative this is about revealing the real issues of Brexit not the lies and cover ups .
    This is our PPI claim for the underwritten lies that we were conned with .

    Yes but the rules were always in place within the freedom of movement laws to prevent people coming to UK simply to claim benefits. Sadly those rules have never been implemented by our governments (left and right) and have actively been ignored by most.....
