if you feel strongly enough and would like to see Article 50 revoked, why not sign the petition? If you’ve done so already, why not spread the news?

We have put this back on, but if it descends into unfriendly behaviour or personal attacks then we will lock the topic.

Thank you

Thank you Jan

Yes I have already done so Pete.

We have too.

Why not just lock the bad posts and suspend the culprits for 1month.

Me too!!

I'd already done it but don't think it will make a blind bit of difference

It's obvious by the carry on in Parliament over the last week, democracy is in short supply. All political parties have there own agenda and it does not include taking any notice of the public.

Maybe MPs are voting for what they consider the best for the country.....?

Maybe the average voter is not au fait with the macro-economic and geopolitical position of the UK on the world stage at the present time. Perhaps the MPs have some deeper understanding..

Perhaps..

....and as Winston Churchill once said...

"The first duty of a member of Parliament is to do what he thinks in his faithful and disinterested judgement is right and necessary for the honour and safety of Great Britain. His second duty is to his constituents, of whom he is the representative but not the delegate"
