Welcome back Wayne
Well the HoL did their bit to undermine the referendum again, as expected, now its down to our MP’s to carry it through on Wednesday. May can appeal to those Labour MP’s who should really support her, but I guess that she will tell her own rebels to prepare for deselection or opposition, your choice.......if she loses the vote I would just pack it in and call a GE with Boris as Leader. Remain or Leave, as a country we have just been shot in the foot by our betters, god bless ‘em........

What do you mean by type then Roydo ?.......
You've got to love Joe. His success rate is simply staggering lol
The rebels are going to have to weigh up there options now.
Vote against May risk a leadership election, and more than likely get a pro hard Brexit leader or risk a GE and they might lose there jobs and face a hard time getting put forward to run in it , good luck with that if they represent a leave ward.
It will be interesting anyway.

Dominic Grieve is retiring anyway, probably to some EU funded group, so doesn’t really give a crap....but a GE would shake quite a few MP’s out of their jobs certainly.
We will still be leaving the EU and people will need to vote on who they would prefer to negotiate it.....
Really Bruce last year was the lowest since the brexit vote- look at the two years before......

That wasn’t what Joey actually said though, he didn’t mention net migration did he, he just mentioned those coming in. I haven’t a clue, but do you have the numbers for those that came in ?........

Surely the number which matters is the one which offsets those leaving Britain too?

Not if you’re pushing an anti immigration narrative it doesn’t, just ask Nige.
It's a mess Pete.
On to the vote in a few days for the chaos to continue, god knows how it will all end.

Who’s to blame for the supposed uncontrolled immigration that’s apparently such a big issue for many and reason enough to bail out of the EU?
That is only one item on a large list debated for a month before the referendum, and anyone who says that 17.4 million people were not aware of ticking the out box was a complete exit from the Polictical EU is a nonsense........
Yes it dropped last year after a rise of 22 percent in previous years cherry picking the year Brexit was voted for there was a sharp downturn......
Still waiting to see how you have not responded to my Corbyn post on how he has voted over the years on the EU - I did post them for you @Foot Long Hot Dog - he's a bigger Brexiteir than Nige.........lol
