We know that a majority of MPs favour remain. We know that the referendum wasn't binding. We need these brave MPs of ours to stop watching their backs and do the Right Thing.
The 'right thing' in your view.
It was always the case that 'a majority of MPs favour remain', but it was seen that they were not representing the views of their constituents. The referendum made quite clear that they were not representing the views of their voting constituents. To now act directly against that expressed view, without getting confirmation of their actions from their constituents, would be a disaster for democracy in UK.
The job of MPs now is to get us out of the EU with the best deal possible, or on WTO terms if no good deal is forthcoming.
And yes, that is my opinion.
