Yes but the Prime Minister and is obvious successor May are both remainers. In reality they are the ones who hold all the marbles.

I watched that today. About Juncker, a part not shown in that text was that he stated again there could be no change to the treaty until there was more integration - his words were "A Europe for Europeans"
There was a committee of Tory MPs who did a report for the PM to see if we could survive outside the EU about 9 months ago it came back 50/50 in favour David Cameron asked the chairman to use his veto vote to bin it yet only last week in PMQs DC stated it would have to be returned too to look at the positive motions of being outside the EU!
In other words ignore a committees report by your MP s at your peril when they vote against you on the benefits of being outside the EU do not ignore them thinking the referendrum was in the Bag by a remain vote by the electorate!
When they were so far ahead in the polls!

He's not party to any treaty changes. Only member state governments are.
He's an odious toad. Far too big for his boots.

Well they clearly have, have you not seen the scaremongering and obvious bias on the BBC, Sky, ITV and most of the national press? I don't see how you could say I was misleading anyone. None of the out voter's currently have enough major sway to make any changes. The Prime Minister and his successor hold all the cards.

Bank of England warns Brexit risks beginning to crystallise
- 2 hours ago
- From the sectionBusiness
The Bank of England has warned there is evidence that risks it identified related to Brexit are emerging.
In a major report it states: "There is evidence that some risks have begun to crystallise. The current outlook for UK financial stability is challenging."
The Bank has eased special capital requirements for banks, potentially freeing up £150bn for lending.
Eight major banks have also agreed with George Osborne to provide more lending to households and businesses.
The chancellor signed a letter with Barclays, HSBC, Santander UK, Virgin Money, Metro Bank, RBS, Nationwide and Lloyds for the banks to make extra capital available in this "challenging time".
'Major'
The Bank's change to capital buffers could help if uncertainty from the leave vote causes the economy to slow down and banks to be more cautious.
"This is a major change," said Bank of England governor Mark Carney.
"It means that three-quarters of UK banks, accounting for 90% of the stock of UK lending, will immediately - immediately - have greater flexibility to supply credit to UK households and firms," he said.
Mr Carney was speaking at a news conference following the release of the bank's six monthly Financial Stability Report.

Yeah he's hardly 'scaremongering' is he
He's having to borrow investment and commercial banks money to reduce concerns.
Thats what. As a direct consequence.
To improve sentiment in the economy.

You said the leave side isnt in government, well 87% of their mps are. That's a pretty high ratio is it not?
You made a statement which quite clearly isn't true and you made it in a post complaining about the media being misleading.

The 250 is down over 2% again today
£ down 3 cents against the dollar.
These are the short term effects granted but when can the term "scaremongering" stop being used?
Do we have a cut off point if these trends continue?

Saw earlier today that several massive Commercial Property investors, (Standard Life, Aviva, Norwich Union in old money, and M&G) have imposed restrictions on folk taking their investments out.
In a nutshell, it means they have experienced, or expect to receive, instructions from major holders that they want to redeem their money. QED, they have lost faith in the UK Commercial Property market as a low risk home for their cash.
Billions of £££ now effectively tied into an asset class that folk want to get out of.
Technical phrase is they have switched to a swinging single price. Oooh er.
All good stuff. Not.

Not a generalisation and understand why a lot wanted out, but it is not the EU that has ripped them it is successive British governments. If the EU made the rules every country would be as succesful as Germany or as non-productive as us. But it is not like that is it? The EU does not decide our economic policy or our taxation system, health, education or any other key strategy. Farage and Johnson have made lots believe the crap they suffer every day is down to the EU. It is simply not, and now the chances of those people has got worse and the liars without a plan have headed for the hills. Well done lads!
