OUT WITH A DEAL EATING OUR CAKE AND LOVING IT suck it up remoaners
And like a typical anti democracy remoaner he decided the will of the people should be ignored the minute the democratic result was in total fecking hypocrite 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Despite it being voted in to law by the commons the spineless two faced remoaner MPs have totally abandoned any morals and decided to ignore the will of the British people.
It will be remembered and no election or referendum will ever be the same again in this country.
The one thing that will come is a massive surge in the popularity of UKIP or a similar party in the future who stand for the 52%.
Happy Days.

That awkward moment when audio comes to light showing Andrea Leadsom thinks Brexit "will be a disaster for the UK economy" but she will happily back it in an attempt to become prime minister. https://t.co/pwrqaCjyll

What a surreal day. Voting to elect the non elected foreigners that tell us what to do without us ever having a say.
Ho hum.
If you can let me know where on my ballot I get to choose who is in the EU Council and the EU Commission I'd love to put a vote in. Keen to get a say on who's running the ECB too.

Same place on your ballot where you choose who’s in the cabinet or head of the civil service.
And you get the same say as you do when choosing who’s running the Bank of England.
Happy to help.

Ha good answer! :)
I guess I am more comfortable with unelected officials who are single nation specific rather than unelected officials who are attempting to apply one-size-fits-all policy across 28 nations.

How do you feel about the fact the only person on planet swans that has a say in who is the next prime minister is bluey?

As a guess, I'd say Mrs ECB runs ECB...

We live in a world where we can not operate in a vacuum.
Ultimately, I’d far rather be closely connected to our fellow Europeans than to the US.

Bizarre isn't it? Given that the UK is dictated to by these foreigners, a true Brexiteer should be boycotting the sham. They're obviously not though. I wonder if Brexit Party MEPs will be donating their salaries to the Treasury? Surely they wouldn't pocket the money would they?

Those officials are elected by the people we elect.

EU Commission, you get as say on who's in the commission through General Elections, as it's our government who nominates our candidates.
EU Council. You get a say by voting in our General Elections, as the Council is made up of the Heads on the member state governments. They then appoint the president on our behalf (who doesn't have a vote on Council business, so only directly elected members have a vote).
EU Committee of the Regions (you didn't ask, but I'll throw it in anyway) - you get a say through local council elections, by electing local government officials (CoTR members must be elected to political positions in their home country). Our government then proposes who is put forward to represent the UK.
Not that any of this will mean much for much longer!

Does it? Any examples?
I was trying to think of one it was such a weird comment. But no. Callaghan, Major, Brown, May were the ones I remember. Fixed term parliaments makes it even less likely.

Indeed. There’s no requirement for it and it’s not the norm. Callaghan, Major and Brown all went to that government’s full term before having an election they had to have anyway. May waited a year after taking over but only called one then cos she thought she’d win handsomely and quickly sort all that Brexit nonsense out. That went well.
Eden called an election pretty quickly in the mid 50s after taking over from Churchill. That’s the last one I can think of. And when he quit after suez Macmillan didn’t call an election.

New leaders of governing parties are only likely to call a quick election if they are convinced they will win and increase their majority. For most mid term governments there’s very little chance of that so they don’t do it.
Of course, Theresa May’s spectacular failure a couple of years ago will make it even more unlikely.
