Cameron warned about Juncker, he was absolutely right........

Juncker's latest thoughts......

Mr Juncker has said he regrets Brexit but vowed to negotiate hard for the remaining 27.

Speaking in Malta today: 'Brexit isn't the end. A lot of people would like it that way - even people on another continent where the newly elected US president was happy that Brexit was taking place and has asked other countries to do the same.

'If he goes on like that, I am going to promote the independence of Ohio and Austin, Texas, in the United States.'

The guy has lost the plot.......
 
There's no such thing, you're a sovereign nation until you're not. The U.K. Is a sovereign nation, it was yesterday too.

Where do you get that idea? Is everything in your world black and white?

How can the UK be a fully sovereign nation if it can't control its own borders, its own waters, its own law making, its own judiciary, its own trade policy, its own agricultural policy? Please explain.
 
As the people of Britain decided that we are leaving the EU, I think it is fair that they also decide how it is done. Many people have learned many things about the EU since the referendum which they didn't know beforehand. I know I have. On certain issues, minds have been changed and people have been convinced either way. We are left now with a Prime Minister who has been chosen by her party, not by the people, to make ultimate decisions about an issue which is not only incredibly divisive but was also so close in result.

For example - I would guess that many who voted were not totally clued up about the link between free movement and the single market. I bet lots of people who voted to end free movement didn't know that it also meant we would not be able to access the single market. So why not ask the people to vote on whether leaving the EU means also leaving the single market - or perhaps the public have changed their mind about weighing up the pros and cons of the free movement/single market issue. Other countries have had referendums on similar.

If you voted without knowing the very basic fundamentals and didn't bother to do any kind of research about what leaving or remaining would mean, then you should have abstained. You can't blame the current state on your ignorance of the issues when you came to vote. Half of all British Prime Ministers weren't voted in through general elections, and it doesn't matter one iota because we live in a Parliamentary democracy, not a Presidential democracy.

The UK made concessions in order to join the single market. They can choose, as they are doing, to end this deal and the concessions which are part of it. This would suggest to me that they are sovereign. They have the ultimate say on what happens to their country.
Massachusetts can not choose to exit the USA, it is not Sovereign. The USA can choose to exit NAFTA. It is sovereign.
Every country makes concessions to one extent or another in the name of global trade. It is a question over who has the ultimate control over these concessions. In the case of the UK, it's clear that they have the ultimate say and there fore are sovereign.
If the EU as a block, forbid them to end the deal and leave, they would not be sovereign.
