Lux could, I am sure, be persuaded to join the Commonwealth in order to enable him to stand as an MP. (Mind, is being an MP even a requirement to be PM? Technically, probably not, Lord Salisbury.)
Brexit, for once some facts.
- Thread starter flecc
- Start date
OK, keep your hair on, it's a maximum of 5 years I should have said. Jesus are we all getting pedantic.
And with Corbyn head of Labour we could effectively have same government for next 20 years.
And Junker would simply do what JRM wants to do. Build a bloody great tax haven, which is all Luxembourg is. Flecc threw that in as bait by the way.. He knows how much I like Junker... Thought you lot wanted a socialist leader..
And in agreeing with it being the will of the people who voted you are confirming that it is not in fact "The Will of the People" as a large proportion were not allowed to vote.

Theresa May refuses to exclude NHS contracts from US trade deals
Prime minister is asked to give guarantee that US corporations will not have access to NHS"
Theresa May has refused to rule out giving US companies access to NHS contracts as part of a future trade deal with Donald Trump’s White House.
At prime minister’s questions on Wednesday, the Liberal Democrat leader, Vince Cable, challenged May over how she would respond if Washington pushed for access to Britain’s public services for US corporations.
“The prime minister knows that one of the key objectives of American trade negotiators in any future deal after Brexit is to secure access for American companies to business in the NHS,” he said. “Can she give an absolute guarantee that in those negotiations the NHS will be excluded from their scope? And can she confirm that in her conversations with President Trump she’s made it absolutely clear to him that the NHS is not for sale?”
The prime minister refused to do so

This is classic
"Former Brexit secretary Dominic Raab tells Sky News if Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit deal is rejected by MPs "we should go back to the EU, stop being blackmailed and bullied and make our best offer and be willing to walk away"
What offer? anyone care to hazard a guess?

Shocking 'flecc'!…….an extremely attractive proposition on many levels, I grant you, but shocking nonetheless.
I'm reminded of the unforgettable Dick Emery with his catch-phrase, 'Oh you are awful…….but I like you!'

Is it raining in Hull. You seem depressed and angry again OG.. Not sure about this garbled rant... I am sure I said it was not the will of the people... Just the will of those that happened to vote for it... Its an utterly pointless phrase... The echo strikes back.
Anyway, I m off back to beach (bar) to drown OG's sorrows. I may be a while. 100 rupees a pint... That's about 90p. Kingfisher, it might well be ginfsisher by end of night. Here's hoping.
Cheer up OG.
True it was a "Non binding Advisory only" referendum.
