The negotiating stance is a different issue. The question was: ''Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?'' Leave won, so article 50 gets triggered because that is the only mechanism that we can ...

We don't have a CHOICE lol. EU ruled out any negotiations BEFORE triggering article 50 - as you well know. What you are suggesting sounds great though, shame it's not based in reality.

That's a different discussion. This is about article 50, and whether we even get to enact it. If the parliament vote in line with the referendum, it will be a big drama about nothing lol. And then we move on to arguing about different stuff lol.

Several things here. No referendum in the UK has ever been legally binding to my knowledge. No referendum result has ever been blocked or ignored by the parliament. For the UK parliament to block a referendum result, it would be a first, and it ...

There are two things I don't want to come out of this: 1. Our PM with more power 2. Parliament to overrule the people Ideally we would have Brexit by vote of the parliament. If that is not possible then the royal prerogative should be used to adhere ...

url Article 50 must be triggered by a parliamentary vote. What this means is that MPs can effectively block Brexit in spite of the referendum results. If the UK parliament does block the EU referendum result that would be an anti-democratic ...
