    No. We voted in Tories. We have them. The majority is still 12.

    Interestingly, the muppet Farron has said the majority of the electorate must be listened to. I assume he means we should Brexit now

      What's to stop any of the existing parties saying "If we're elected, we'll ignore the referendum result, and not trigger article 50"? If they're elected they're following the democratic will and ignoring it at the same time. It's probably quantum.
      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        I wonder how Brexiters feel about the WTO. I mean that's an organisation of many countries which is used to create agreements which are bound by law and when broken the country in question can be fined.

        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.

            Totally agree with this, Blair made a mistake in going into Iraq without a UN mandate, but Saddam's days were numbered there would have been a messy civil war at some point.

              I don't see any need to. Just point to the previous regime.

              As for the bit about leaving the EU: the Tories gave them the choice so the Tories should do the dirty work.

                There is a stench coming from Westminster - it is the hypocrisy of the Labour party calling for an election - just like they provided when Gormless Gordon succeeded Phony Tony

                  So pleased to see people on CUK using names that suitably scorn our leaders. But what about Corbyn?
