You mean unlike every politician in every election campaign ever?

So on top of having laws stating that the referendum would not be binding, people were also very aware that a politician’s promise shouldn’t be trusted?

Cameron stated the results would be HONOURED

The question was whether the referendum was binding, not was Cameron said.

obviously a totally alien concept to the remainers.

Could it be that respecting laws is a totally alien concept to Brexiteers?

For anyone who still doesn't understand the legal situation regarding the referendum here is the parliament document explaining it to MPs....

 

People who manipulate referendums don’t respect laws. It would also require them to read and understand them, which is more difficult than Poor Pat’s latest YouTube rant or a simple lie on a bus.

Why don't you go to the various courts and try and stop Brexit that way.

 

Hold on you are already. There is no lows to what some remainers will do.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that people who favor to be governed by manipulated opinion polls can’t accept the rule of law and consider it a “low”. Good that there will never be a place in our free democratic societies for those who can’t abide the laws.

Most people would concede they don't have a point, but not you, change the discussion into mindless drivel. No point in sharing rhetoric, good bye everyone, goodbye.

You can’t seriously claim that MPs didn’t vote in the referendum, or that their votes somehow don’t count. Even for a Brexiteer that would be too much lack of knowledge.

The electorate didn't vote in the HoC, so that makes your argument rather pointless again.

Part of the electorate did vote in the HoC. Those of the electorate whose job is MP.

You don't appear to have done much laughing up to now.

Ever since the referendum it was clear that this would end in a disaster. Everyone told you so.

That isnt true or correct , I dont know why you post such made-up nonsense

Are you saying you’re applying double-standards?

You never left the start line....????

I don’t have to. As a European, I can live a pretty life in Thailand and laugh at how Brexiteers are destroying their country. ????

Which one is that?

All MPs who voted to leave in 2016 and subsequently against no-deal in the Commons.

How Brits dare to question HM The Queen ? 

She’s unelected. For a Brexiteer, everyone from the intern to the queen must be elected.

Making things up and trying to pass them of as credible is not going to work this time either.

Keep running away from reality.

Nobody voted to Leave with a deal or without a deal.

That’s not true, otherwise the ERG wouldn’t block leaving with a deal, and others wouldn’t block leaving without a deal. Those people, quote obviously, voted to leave without a deal or with a deal, respectively.

There were only 2 options, Leave or Remain. Leaving with no deal is leaving, is it not? If it is not leaving, please tell me what it is.

You should tell that the voters who are blocking to leave, aka the ERG and other MPs.

It can be overturned/reversed too!

 

Everything can be overturned/reversed/changed by parliament; that’s what constitutes a parliamentary representative democracy. The only way around that would be to change the whole system to one that is governed by referendums.
