    Can't act contrary to existing law?
    What has that got to do with it?
    They simply repeal the European Communities Act 1972. It's nothing to do with acting contrary to law.

    Another leader down - should make the negotiations a lot easier if he's not causing trouble (assuming he gives up his MEP expenses and salary as well). At least at the start of this week there's a bit of good news to go with the huge amount of awfulness last week.

    Not that I heard. They simply pointed out the consequences of the policy to the likes of Dianne Abbot.

    Twist and turn what exactly?

    I posted your actual words, and the only question I've asked is that you prove what you've said has got any basis in fact, and you can't, so therefore (as predicted) you've come back with meaningless drivel, posted solely as a deflection from your complete and utter bullshit, that you simply can't back up with anything at all.

    Grateful that you replied btw? <laugh> Who the **** do you think you are? <laugh>

    I await your 'facts', but I won't be holding me breath.....

    I was reading up on all this early this morning and here's a possible scenario. It's only a scenario, not a fact, or even my own feeling of conviction, just something that's theoretically possible.

    From what I read, the UK can delay invoking article 50 for as long as it likes. The EU won't like it, but there's nothing they can do to force it. What they can do is appoint a committee of representatives of the remaining members to begin negotiating Brexit terms without the UK. The U.K. could then ask to join those talks to help with negotiations, an offer which may well be accepted.

    Assuming terms are argued over and finally agreed. The U.K. having extracted the best possible deal it could from the EU. Now, here comes the bit that is pure supposition and the leavers won't like.

    Having negotiated the terms - bearing in mind this would be at least 2 years down the road - the UK Gvt then in power proposes another referendum on the terms of Brexit. Effectively saying to the people, ' OK, this is the best deal we can get from the EU. Neither side is going to move any further' 'Given where the economy is now, what trade deals have been negotiated elsewhere, and the final terms we have negotiated with the EU, do you want parliament to now invoke article 50 immediately? Or not?

    Yes, I know that another referendum is being ruled out, at the moment. But bearing in mind this would be some way down the road and feelings may be different.

    As I say, purely a scenario. But the longer parliament delays invoking article 50, you begin to wonder what the long game is!

    As the countries allowed in are predominantly white, and the predominantly black countries are excluded, in what way is that not racial discrimination? Other institutions have been taken to task for far less.

    Plenty of ethnic minority groups have pointed out the discriminatory nature of the current policy, you'll have to google them yourself though.

    The process for repealing an Act is the same as for passing a new Bill. It'd have to go through parliament and be voted on.

    I think in the end what the uk and eu will get is a compromised deal on both sides. It won't be a full brexit, it will be a mixture of agreements that both sides probably don't fully support 100% but will have to accept to make it work.

    Because it's not discriminatory <doh>

    The EU freedom of movement doesn't discriminate against any colour or creed. The fact that Europe is primarily historically white is **** all to do with it.

    The EU doesn't extend to Africa or the sub continent, it's an absolutely ridiculous argument.

    None of which backs your claim that Remain was the racist vote - your words.

    And that some Remain voters did so because they didn't want more no EU migrants arriving - your words.

    You can provide **** all to back up such idiocy, as it's nothing but a figment of your warped imagination.
