O/T Democracy

I did not care for Boris Johnson but I’ve changed my mind.
There is another agenda at play here. That is an agenda not just to delay brexit but cancel it altogether. 500 MPs voted to trigger article 50 yet all that is happening is delay after delay. Continually voting it down when Theresa May in charge. Johnson is overwhelmingly elected by the very people who are again trying to delay again by taking away the very negotiating point that we would have with the EU.

I voted to remain 3 years ago but I accept that the majority voted to leave and that we must leave. If the EU will not compromise we must leave without a deal. If we take no deal off the table why should they offer us one?

Make no mistake there are moves afoot to make sure we don’t leave at all.

Irrespective of all this, the key thing here, speaking as a business man is the uncertainty. One way or another this has to be sorted now. Kicking the can down the road will achieve nothing apart from more uncertainty.

And the guy who has just defected to the Lib Dem’s......he claims to be representative of his constituents. His constituents elected him as a CONSERVATIVE MP. All he wants is another referendum.

Good post. On a practical level, what compromise are you looking for from the EU? Signs are that they will lose the backstop if there was the solution Boris claims there is. Why do you think he won't publish details of his solution?

If that alone was changed, would you leave with the rest of the WA intact? I fear many, including Boris, have no intention of compromise along these lines, and even if he is, many behind him I don't think are. Possibly enough to get through parliament though, and I'd be willing to support it if he had the solution so be good if he would kindly publish his details for scrutiny don't you think?

This is not true at all and Boris has said that the way it could be done is in a report that any MP can go and see at anytime they want he just does not want to make it public knowledge before the EU have seen it.
