    Just out of interest, on average how long does it take to set up a new trade deal with another country, anyone any ideas?

    Bath and North East Somerset voted 58% to 42% for remain. The constituency MP is Jacob Rees Mogg.
    Wokingham voted 57% to 43% for remain. The constituency MP is John Redwood.
    Who is representing the wishes of these people? 17.4m is a big number. So is 16.1m.

    Whatever happens this country will need to do a Spain, have a ‘pacto del olvido’, a pact of forgetting, if we want to avoid the divisions getting deeper and lasting decades.

    You can mock it but 17.4M will be angry and will support a Brexit party. However I am still of the opinion that we will leave WTO or a fudge.

    Did you not say mad Anna and Clarke were not representing the people of their constituencies? Correct me if I'm wrong. It's just been pointed out that JRM and Redwood aren't either. Very weak arguement and totally should be dismissed. Please ignore this mistake by ellers

    Anyone any ideas how long a trade deal on average takes to set up? Or how many we have in place just in case a NO DEAL happens?

    Fudge is a type of sugar candy that is made by mixing sugar, butter and milk, heating it to the soft-ball stage at 240 °F, and then beating the mixture while it cools so that it acquires a smooth, creamy consistency.

    They are respecting the overall referendum result... that's how our system works and has for years. It's not hard to work out.... or maybe it is?

    Your words not mine dear ellers. You were just corrected by sb73 take it on the chin lad:1980_boogie_down:
    You should have said that in the first place and not made out it was about mps not respecting the wishes of their constituents and you wouldnt have tied yourself up.

    His argument was weak and he knows it. I don't need to take anything on the chin. Unless of course you or SB want to prove me wrong in that the MP's in question are not respecting the overall result?
