I have spoken to several people who voted to leave - and now question their choice at the ballot box.   I wouldn't rule out concessions made to the Government to persuade the UK to remain part of the EU - and as such if a second referendum was held the result would be an overwhelming victory for the remainers.

Theresa May continues to say Brexit means Brexit - but what exactly is Brexit?

The Canadian/EU  CETA trade deal has just been signed .
Thought to be worth around £10billion of trade per year.
Trade deals with China, India, America, etc look like the way forward for us  8)

That is true - but it took 7 years of negociations.

Saw five magpies in one tree today.

Is this a cryptic message to suggest we should all invest in silver?!

Wikipedia tells me the first known occurrence of magpie song was in a book of Lincolnshire folklore with the lyric:

One for sorrow
Two for mirth
Three for a funeral
And four for birth
Five for heaven
Six for hell
Seven for the devil, his own self

Mainly because all 27 nations had to agree it! Surely one agreeing with another one would be easier?

When we leave the EU, does this mean we will get Duty Free back at the airports?

Unsurprisingly the court ruling is that parliament has to be consulted before Article 50 is signed, could be that Brexit doesn't really mean Brexit after all 
If it comes down to a parliamentary vote which way will Matty Warnham MP vote  :o  :dan

it was obvious and right concerning the ruling.

obviously it will go to the supreme Court on appeal.

What happens if the Commons vote not to follow the will of the people?

If he wants to keep his seat surely he'll have to vote the way we voted in the referendum? Or is the  party more important?

The MP resigned over irreconcilable differences with the government's hard Brexit stance.
The question is does Matty H, MP, favour staying in the Single Market?
If he does he would appear to have irreconcilable differences with 75 % of the people he represents  8)
