Parliament should feel under no obligation to accept the Withdrawal Agreement. It can legitimately vote to revoke Article 50, and retain the UK’s status as an EU Member State. The result of revocation is that the UK will be able to reconsider its position on Brexit. The Court’s judgment insists that revocation is unconditional and unequivocal. The Court emphasised the ability of a Member State to change its mind.

Yes Anniebach, but he might not remember having said it?????

The man may have the support of the unions and momentum but not the support of Labour MPs who are beginning to realise that Corbyn is not PM material.

Support for staying in EU at highest level since referendum. 56 percent of Brits say they would choose to remain in EU. Support among Brits for remaining in the EU has reached its highest level since the 2016 referendum, according to a new poll .

The YouGov survey found that when excluding those who said they do not know or would not vote, 56 percent said they would choose to remain in the bloc if there was a new referendum, while 44 percent would choose to leave — a margin of 12 percentage points.

When including the responses of those who said they don't know or wouldn't vote, these figures dropped to 48 percent for Remain and 38 percent for Leave.
