The prorogation is simply to give the government time to introduce its new agenda by means of a Queens speech, nothing new in that. I'm surprised the BBC see any parallels with Germany 1933 unless its the Corbyn idea of political management they're getting at?
    You used the word "binding" a few times, but that doesn't make it true! A referendum of this type in the UK is advisory only!

      That's the point and, really, the only point. Remoaners gonna moan.

      It won't actually work as a blocking tactic. They simply want to bring this to a head and have the necessary GE.

      Becoming a neutral bystander for a second, it would be hilarious if a GE didn't then solve it.

        You obviously didn't read the small print. It was absolutely binding and Leave always meant no-deal.

        There is a plan to deal with opponents of no-deal, code name "Final Solution".

              They've already threatened that such as if we don't pay them after exit. The EU only want to talk if you already agree with them and prefer threats and sanctions to dialogue and agreement. Where is their audited accounts, financial transparency and trade honesty? They've already attempted to rob us of our investments and IPR for projects such as Galileo. I can't see how anyone can find benefits in being a member of this protectionist racket

                Do you have proof of that?
                Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  Lol at the Brextulipters. If this were happening in any country south of here they’d be the first to jump in and claim the demise of the Union.

                  A few thousand miles south and they’d be on about banana republics.

                  No Deal now, to save the EU from the U.K. dragging it down!

                    It's getting interesting now. I like the new direction of the UK, confident and proud.

                    Lets be honest most of Parliament are rubbish, self serving idiots. Good move and lets hope we can make it permanent.

                      Quite right, who needs Parliament...
