Thanks for backtracking, Teribus. Forcing you to greater accuracy is quite an achievement.
Sarah Olney is going to vote against the triggering of Article 50. We need a good few more like her who can see that triggering the damn thing is a turkey voting for Christmas. The people should never have been given a say in a referendum, and the way it was conducted by both sides is abundant confirmation of that. But now that we've had one, once the terms of exit are made clear to us, we should have not the same referendum again but a second one on whether the terms are good enough to give the government tbe go-ahead to invoke Article 50.
Goldsmith, the racist Trust Fund Kid, made the by-election his protest against a runway. What the idiot should have seen was that this is a non-issue in Richmond. Neither of the other main candidates disagreed with him. So the LibDems made it instead into a brexit issue - and wiped out one of the biggest Tory majorities in the country. That has changed the agenda on brexit. It will shift even more so as long as the Supreme Court does the right thing next month. We're getting nearer to seeing democracy over the horizon.
