It is beginning to look this way, can't see it being invoked in the next 24 months. Like a delinquent child we'll be thrown a bone from time to time but never have a place at the top table.

First of all you have this weird idea that people would be as outraged as you would be if the results of the referendum are ignored. If there was a rerun (which I'm fairly sure there won't be), on such a narrow margin last time, it's entirely possible the result could go the other way. Given that, you might find that only a minority of people would actually give a toss, and not enough to cause her any trouble.
Second, all she has to to do is convince somewhat less than 40% of the voters that she's doing the right thing in not leaving the EU at the next General Election, and she'll have all the democratic mandate she needs.
Margaret Thatcher remained in power for eleven years by appealing to the minority that she needed to ensure a majority in parliament.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Well now she's saying there will be no Article 50 trigger until there is a full UK agreement. Not sure how that's going to work as Scots are dead set against leaving the EU. Has she just given Nicola a veto on the whole thing?Comment

So, you saying that the forthcoming interest rate drop and "cash injection" could push up asset prices possibly profiting the wealthier in society but article 50 could never happen? That would make the average Leave voter happy.Comment
