I read through about half of the script, interesting view points however I felt the house was mixed on views but most seem to agree we carry on the will of the people

That wasn’t a debate in the chamber it was a Westminster Hall debate consisting of two Conservatives (one a Minister), five Labour and one SNP MP.

It’s impossible to derive any meaningful insight into the voting intentions in the chamber going forward from that discussion.

As above it’s a Westminster Hall debate, so doesn’t hold any of the weight of discussions or matters decided upon (by division or otherwise) in the main chamber.

aah, you must have missed those pointing out that they were surprised by the low turnout . . . a little like those missing remainers that couldn't be bothered to vote perhaps?

There is a world of difference between those who didn’t vote and MPs absent from a Westminster Hall debate.

Indeed, those who were in the main chamber at that time (4.30pm, 3rd December 2018) were listening to the Attorney General begin his statement prior to the vote that the Government was in contempt of Parliament.

Far from “couldn’t be bothered” our Parliamentarians were dealing with matters of critical national importance.

So . . a petition calling for a second referendum, signed by thousands (possibly even yourself) isn't quite as important as everyone has been making out.

I get it now, thanks

If you actually read the detail you would see that petition was to not hold a second referendum.

I can assure all honourable members of the forum I was not a signatory.

I do agree however, that petition was unimportant.

But yet people still get what they asked for, because responsible parents realise it’s important to set realistic expectations and not promise what can’t be delivered to those expecting nice things.

We all know Santa doesn’t exist, so we make sure we plan well in advance and put things in place, rather than having to go to the petrol garage on Christmas Eve and giving people BBQ Charcoal, an overpriced bag of Maltesers, and some beyond best date flowers because we couldn’t be bothered actually trying to work out the impact of what we promised.

You would still expect more of those who advocate for one to be present to put forward the case.
