Dave again,
Are we to assume then that every other promise made during the referendum campaign is binding as well?

We are not talking about campaign slogans.
This was a pledge from the government about the referendum itself.

Raedwulf,
I didn't believe that. I knew it wasn't true. So did Steve, Kevin, BWM, Dave...

Look at Question Time from last Thursday.
Both the Labour and Conservative MPs said that Parliamentarians voted six to one for a referendum in the belief it would be binding.

How clever of you to be better informed than all our MPs.
If I am ignorant, they must all be too!
Not fit to decide on the issue in that case.
Why will you not tell us who informed you, but failed to inform the rest of the country?

Why did none of you once mention that snippet od knowledge in any of the discussion here before the referendum?
