The Dutch government did indeed Nicky.

Sadly we have a Prime Minister who hears voices of everyone but only really listens to very few of them.

How she has been allowed to get away for so long with her endless procrastination, mystifies and angers me.

So only a rebellion of 20 against May, thought it would be a lot more given that this was always going to pass. Obviously a lot of MPs abstained but still a good night for May

Are we the people prepared to fight for our democracy? The Westminster elites don't believe we are, and they're probably right.

It's all over

So who is looking forward to victoriously leaping clear of the EU, unfettered by any scuzzy deals. Just think of the new jobs created as we build that border wall across Northern Ireland, as the great Trump says, "A wall is a beautiful thing"

Then we can all march on to a new age of prosperity, promised by Nigel, Boris and Ree-Smog...
