    Your choice of words is very telling, I was laughing at your choice of the word fanatic, and now 'why your lot lost'. Brexit at any cost?

    Oh who are my lot by the way? That might be fun

    They still are but as Hancock said "I respect the result". You explain to me why 500 odd MPs triggered article 51 (knowing about the no deal clause)? Then they stood on manifestos saying they would 'respect' and implement the vote and didn't.
    There seems to be different meanings of the word 'respect' Watford.
    Why do I hear Blackford saying only two days ago (in the House) that he wanted to cause disruption in the Brexit process or that Limp Dem leader saying even if the country voted out again she would not respective result.
    You explain that to me.

    They could be argued to be representing the best interests of their constituencies, supporters or the country as a whole. Take your pick.

    Well that's where your argument fails because they triggered article 51 and stood on manifestos saying they would respect and implement the vote and didn't.
    The country voted to leave (that was the result Watford). You respect the result and they didn't.

    I don’t respect the result. If the referendum was binding it would have been declared void such was the level of meddling and influential lies told. The whole thing is a farce designed to line the pockets of tiny percentage of the population and they’ve somehow got people frothing at the mouth in favour of it.

    Okay you have answered my question.
    you obviously voted in it? you would of then respected the result if remain had won... I don't recall you saying anything about 'binding" (like others) at the time, yet after you don't get the result you wanted, things suddenly change?
    you have explained to me now.

    Interesting comments from Claire Fox on Sky News. When asked about having an alliance with the Tories she smirked and felt uncomfortable and said "there is lots of discussion and speculation". Normally she would give a straight answer. I reckon as said previously that its a done deal... especially when she is not standing as an MP.

    You have to love Mark Francois. On a Sky panel with a Limp and Labour MP he says...
    "It's quite simple. If you want to remain you vote Liberal Democrats. If you want to leave, you vote Conservative". And then with a smirk says "if you don't know, you vote Labour. <laugh> Classic!

    It's a fantastic day for the UK. We are still members of the EU. Long may it continue

    Maybe that's preferable than selling out your morality?
