    Another bonus point for Bercow From Will Quince my Tory MP on FB (see a few posts back) "No great surprise but disappointed that the Speaker has not selected my cross party amendment and declined to take my point of order. Draw your own conclusion." Not much sympaphy from one of his...

    For once I partly agree - Yes the ones like BJ, JRM, Gove Farage, May et al who led Leavers down the garden path with illusory high hopes of a new land full of milk and honey have a lot to answer for - and hopefully at the ballot box will be dumped upon and be banished to their garden shed to...

    But you voted for this process when you voted Leave to 'Take back control' Parliamentary Sovereignty with some help from UK Law Courts and Gina Miller and all that - taste of what's to come for a long time if we pursue this Leaving malarky down the rabbit hole.
