    That's how Parliament works when you don't have a majority. MP's have more power because their vote is important. Boris has lost every vote he has had in the commons but every one was close. This is an emotional subject and we clearly disagree but I think there is a middle way and all the party leaders should do what they can to find it.

    No there isnt Tony and thats the problem. you fall into one of two camps, 1) Remoaning loser who cant let go of global corporatism or 2) You are a thick northern Tw@t who doesnt know what you voted for

    trying to find the middle ground wont be easy...an election however could wipe out 220 @rsewipes and we could move on, but the cowardly communist is scared to death

    I am neither of those things Glyn, I have already stated that the vote should be respected but it needed to be done in a way that brought the country together. As things have gone, this issue will divide the country for a generation and that benefits no-one.
    I'm sure their will be a general election soon but I'm not convinced it will make a huge amount of difference. People will vote on brexit lines so the tories/brexit will get half the votes and the other 'less enthusiastic' brexit parties will get the other half. I doubt anyone will get a majority.

    It all depends on how you see Brexit.
