The referendum is not binding. Article 50 could be withdrawn. However, this is extremely unlikely, so leaving is a process Government are in the midst of negotiating terms for. It is not a law.

Re: Brexit Discussion (Follow First Post Rules!)

Brexit is now enshrined in UK Law - the Withdrawal Act did that but did not specify a leaving date. As you know, Article 50 sets the date unless extended by mutual agreement.

Re: Brexit Discussion (Follow First Post Rules!)

Interesting that there is now a debate emerging here as to whether we will actually leave the EU.

The law enshrines what happens once we actually leave the EU. Not before.

Trust you to put that spin on the discussion.

However, conspiracy theory is a powerful drug. With Brexit being led by a Remainer, May doing Hammond's bidding and the so-called Technical Notices raising the spectre of the discredited Project Fear, I see a second referendum having been their entire goal from Day 1.

quisling
a traitor who collaborates with an enemy force occupying their country.

Maybe it was a play on words.

Try reading the posts again. You will see that some people on here - not me - don't think we'll leave the EU. I think that's interesting.

Re: Brexit Discussion (Follow First Post Rules!)

Quisling is something used when you need something worse, and more emotional, than traitor. He was an anti-semite with sympathies to the Nazis even before the invasion and helped them in any way he could including with the Holocaust.
