Tell Tulip to Deliver Brexit

[original PM]

Yes, for transition period which they've offered.

It's UK that started this tulip and it's UK that can't ratify reached deal - the best that was possible under red lines (intentionally) put forward by May.

The whole exercise was about making sure UK drops out without transition deal

Yeah the politicians in the UK have let the population down - very few ever had any intention of genuinely wanting to leave the EU and make a go of it on our own - mainly because as a career politician your sole interest is in how much it pays you - and leaving the EU waves goodbye to a nice gravy train.

I just hope most of them get the chance to live to regret their decision.

The population has let themselves down.

[BlasterBates]

The Brexiteers have been shafted, and some in the ERG are waking up to their sorry state of affairs and are considering abstaining in the vote tonight.

Brino is better than nothing. It isn't much better, but it is better.

[original PM]

No - the population voted.

In your opinion they did not vote the way you wanted so you could argue they let you down.

You still don't get it do you? MPs are there to represent 100% of the people living in the UK, whether they voted for them or not. It's their constitutional obligation.

In 2016 we had

Leave 51.89% (17,410,742) or (37.44% of UK voting population)
Remain 48.11% (16,141,241) or (34.71% of UK voting population)

Didn't vote (12,948,018) or (27.85% of UK voting population)

Yes, Leave won the vote. I agree that we should look to enact a leave from the EU BUT this should be to the benefit of all the UK residents and not the minority that voted out. It is MPs duty to do right for the country as a whole.

How the fook leaving EU affects gravy train that MPs are riding and will continue to ride?

It only affects MEPs who don't make this call.

The EU is where our politicians go when we vote them out, or when they get caught being corrupt. It's basically a retirement home for the inept and bent.

There are two EU commissioners and 650 MPs. You can calculate what percentage of MPs become commissioners.
If this is a gravy train it's serves up a very thin gravy.

It makes a great slogan though and provides a smoke screen for Brexiteers to earn far more on the Brexit gravy train, earning fabulous amounts writing articles for the Daily Telegraph, speculating on the trashing of the pound via foreign based hedge funds or pocketing huge amounts of money from Russian donors.

[AtW]

Math was never Mordy’s strong point, he is more into stealing test networks.

Allegedly

No. They let themselves down. They are an international embarrassment.
