One of the reasons we voted brexit is because of thes free movement fiasco so we ain't going to give in on that just for access to the "free" market.

I was surprised he was speaking in the role of EU President before taking up the post.

^ He is taking a lead from Trump!

No, I never thought it would be a simple process, but it seems to me that the people who are playing the ‘debate in Parliament’ or ‘Law’ cards, are using it as an excuse, despite not being vocal during the campaign.

Up until Brexit, I can’t remember the last time that I voted for the ‘winning side’ but I just shrugged my shoulders and thought that there is always next time. I wouldn’t dream of spitting the dummy and rioting/protesting/whinging that it was the ‘wrong’ result or expecting another vote.

But it’s looking more and more like those who voted to leave won’t get what they voted for.

I saw an interview on the news earlier this week (can’t find a link), where even a large percentage of remain voters wouldn’t be happy to keep free movement, and I think that free movement was a big thing to the leavers.

So yes, people should find out as much as possible before casting a vote, but the losing side shouldn’t claim “they knew this all along” when they had kept quiet about it during the campaign.

EDDIE, when I voted I did not give a second thought to British people who have chosen to leave the UK. (And my sister is one of them).
I voted for what I wanted to happen in the country I was born in and intend staying in.

Eddie; //TTT very few cars are made entirely in the UK , mainly makes like Aston Martin, Lotus and Land Rover. Mass market cars are 90% imported. //

So you haven't heard of Honda, Toyota and Nissan then?

Bring it on, no agreement is needed on either side initially. if certain sectors wish to campaign for one then do it on and 'as required' basis.

There is no such thing as free trade anyway, we pay a fortune as a tariff to be in the club for 'free trade'.

What it does mean is that the tax payer foots the bill for the tariff whie big importers gain.

In my day it was pimps.

When the referendum was being debated no one not even the most ardent 'Leave' supporters thought an exit would be achieved by a secret , private process thought up by one person with no consultation with even their own cabinet ministers. Which is exactly what our new PM tried to do!
Very few thought that leaving the EU would also mean leaving the EEA and even the European Customs area as well !
We are still faced with the second problem but at least the first problem has been shown to be illegal!

Eddie, you're like the voice of doom. Do cheer up.

[Zacs-Master]

Not getting any 'doom' from Eddie's post, just lots of facts.

//When the referendum was being debated no one not even the most ardent 'Leave' supporters thought an exit would be achieved by a secret , private process thought up by one person with no consultation with even their own cabinet ministers. Which is exactly what our new PM tried to do! //

This absolute tosh. She didn't 'think it up', she in fact, opposed it, but took on the role with good grace and immediately made appointments to focus on what needed to be done.
What sort of privileged information do you have to know just what is being discussed in cabinet meetings?

[naomi24]

Khandro to Eddie, //What sort of privileged information do you have to know just what is being discussed in cabinet meetings? //

It's not just privileged information - according to Zacs-Master it's one of the many 'facts' Eddie is offering.

[Zacs-Master]

Have you two spotted 'When the referendum was being debated' (so it doesn't in FACT relate to Ms May) and the FACT that this isn't a FACT but a supposition by Eddie of a potential brexit voters thoughts?

[naomi24]

Ahh, this one isn't a fact but another of Eddie's suppositions. He's big on suppositions.

[Zacs-Master]

Well, I'm glad the penny has dropped.

[Khandro]

So what is this "private process thought up by one person" ?

[naomi24]

Where Eddie's suppositions are concerned, the penny dropped a long time ago.

[EDDIE51]

Khandro May tried to get A50 passed by 'Royal Prerogative' which would mean it was passed with no debate and with no information even to the cabinet about the conditions.
That has been ruled illegal by the unanimous verdict of 3 of the most senior judges in the UK , The Law Lords. However, May has seen fit to appeal the judgement to the Supreme Court where it will be finally decided by 13 more judges.

Eddle, today "royal prerogative" rests with The Executive, which is formed by the prime minister and cabinet. I'm not sure how executive power could be wielded without information "even to the cabinet" as you said. is Britain a dictatorship, all of a sudden?

[EDDIE51]

mushroom24 Did you not read all the reports at the time? Mays own cabinet were complaining they had not been informed or told anything about the 'plan' or strategy she was intending to use!
That was what triggered the complaint to the Law Lords!
