The Majority of the electorate voted for Brexit - nothing YOU say will change this so how about enough of the telling of the lies?

Bringing in the whole population is irrelevant, you cannot include people ineligible to vote, could not be arsed to vote in a total vote tally after the vote because YOU lost. It's pathetic!

FFS, more inaccurate nonsense - we gave parliament an instruction when they handed the choice to us to either leave or remain in the EU - the electorate told them we wanted to leave the EU!
I’m sorry, but it’s perfectly verifiable. The words “majority”, “electorate” and “population” all have clear definitions.

The definition of electorate is “all of the people who are entitled to vote in an election”. That includes people who choose to not vote, to get a majority of that figure leave (or indeed remain) would need over 23 million votes.

On the final point, and to complete the circle, Parliament is sovereign. The people are not.

And there we have the legal advice.

The withdrawal agreement can leave us in a customs union with the EU for as long as they please.
