Why we need a People’s Vote and talk of a General Election is just a cynical distraction.

There is a great deal of talk among the critics of the UK Government’s “handling” of the exit negotiations about the urgent need for a transition deal. Significant people and organisations are saying they “need a transition deal by the … Continue reading
Parliament set to tell Theresa May it is not for her to decide What is Best for the UK?
According to some, Parliament is set to send a message to Theresa May and her government that it is for Parliament to decide what the outcome will be of the decision for the UK to leave the EU. Despite the … Continue reading
