    Very interesting. . . whichever side of the Brexit debate you're on.

    We're not in the Euro. Furthermore we have an opt out in perpetuity? The American bloke doesn't understand. 

     

    Should I fast forward? Is anything useful coming up?

     

    BTW we have tariffs to protect against Chinese competition.

    I have never said that but the moral and constitutional obligation on the government and parliament after the referendum was enough to make the result too difficult to avoid in any case. The 2017 EU Notification of Withdrawal Act passed by 494-122. Binding enough?

    David Cameron committed the CONs to implement the result of the referendum. The very fact that he did so demonstrates that the referendum was not binding (in accordance with the act). The terms of Brexit were not specified. May's red lines are her own. LAB committed to Brexit but with a number of conditions. May's red lines and consequent "deal" contravene these conditions.

    Of course they know. They won the referendum through lies and false promises, by telling everyone everything they wanted to hear. That was their only chance; had they told the people what we hear from them today, no one except the far-right and some hardcore haters would have voted to leave. Their strategy worked; the problem is, at some point the house of cards will tumble. 

     

    As a refresher, from the CNN today:

    Well, don't be shy!

    Actually, it was an excellent show.

     

    I don't agree with David Davies'  views on Brexit, but he speaks well. Too few statesmen!

     

    John McDonnell will take over Labour. They still won't get in.

     

    That Hunt from the FO is useless. Certainly not Prime ministerial material.

     

    That New York rock 'n' roll band were good!

     

    As always, Andrew Marr was first class! Jewish and Cambridge as one would expect!
