    I can see that simple tactics are a bit beyond you, so let me put it as simply as possibly for you.

    First of all, you've made another huge assumption. The SNP advised those in england ONLY to vote Leave. In Scotland, the recommendation was to vote Remain. The idea was, in principle, to show how the two countries wanted something completely different, and use this differential to leverage another Indyref attempt. It's that simple.

    Not so much the MPs, imo. It's the parties. This is a HUGE decision for our country & should not be mired by party politics. There should be free voting on this by MPs. We're in this state because of the parties interfering to look after themselves.

    For Brexit, MPs should be answerable to their constituents, not their parties. For many, their actions may well result in their political careers being ended.

    We're not confused by this. You clearly are, and almost every post on the subject adds to the body of evidence to confirm this. :D

    We should take those results to the Supreme Court and to confirm that these remain MP's are acting unlawfully.

    Well you clearly don't. You were invited to provide the data you used but have failed to do so.

    Or are you just one of the 'immigrants out' brigade that latched on to this opportunity to be racist?

    Show me where I said I used data, only you have said that, so why don't you show the data you have.

    Listen to yourself! <laugh>

    No data? So you just tossed a coin then? Doesn't surprise me. Used no data for one of the most important questions you're likely to be asked in your lifetime. What an admission. So was it just joining the 'immigrants out' bandwagon, without considering the consequences, or something equally inane?

    Making a decision with no data, indeed. Ha! Might explain the belly - eating 'just because', rather than your endocrine system telling you it's time to eat. :D

    And FFS, I told you my voting methodology ad nauseam. Do I really have to repeat it for a 4th time on here? <doh>

    No gripe water needed. I’m no sore loser and am fine with the will of the great British public being enacted.

    FFS. It's easier dealing with an infant. OK, here goes ....

    So WTF did your brain use to make the decision? Suspect it might be data, given that random vacant thought is the only other alternative! FFS!

    You reckon?

    So why are there whips to enforce party policy? And why, for example, did 21 tories get the boot? Didn't the Labout Party also oust one of Corbyn's MP pals against his wishes too?

    I also think that the Unions to the left & the 'donors' to the right might disagree with you. The parties are there to conform with their policies. MPs to them & the party are potential miscreants than must be made to conform to the central policies.

    MPs who vote as they wish are called Independents.

    That is an outrageous slur. How dare you imply that chesh isn’t capable of random vacant thought. :biggrin:

    This is a bit like the tail wagging the dog, WJ. Leaving the MPs to vote on a free basis only means that they will vote the way they want and not represent the will of their electorate.
