I believe it will be amended early this week. You are correct, it is law but the law will be tweaked. How it is tweaked presumably depends on whether TM gets her deal through. The next date can then be confirmed.

Ahh they are going to change the law to suit what they want. Why can't the MP's just do what the MAJORITY of the people want and just LEAVE WITHOUT A DEAL? that's what EVERYONE I KNOW WANT. Oh AND WE WON. Which is why we are not marching everywhere and starting petitions. THose that loose always make the most noise, whilst the winners just sit back in the knowledge they won and wait for what they won to be delivered.

Jesus H if it's not I can see MASSIVE problems to erupt country wide.

No problem. It's what the people I know are saying. just because you are one of the moaning minnies who lost. We are getting fed up of all this garbage. And I can tell you whan I speak to people they are becoming more and more irate and VERY vocal. it will blow up big style if we do not leave.
 
Go and have a chat with people outside your tiny circle of friends and have a listen to what they are saying. You will be shocked at the strength of opinion about this.

I think we can leave Scotland and N. Ireland out of all debates on this as both these countries want to stay in tied to the UK, as the UK give them money and also want to stay in the EU as, guess what?, they give them money. So they want it all ways, because they are getting it...all ways. It's just England getting sweet fanny adams and having to stump up readies for these countries and getting sweet fanny adams back. Hence why we voted OUT and luckilly, their are more people in England. Oh and Wales voted out as they get sweet fanny adams too, which is why they voted out as well. Why can you arguementative lot not see this?

Terrific understanding of Irish politics and the Irish border issue there.

You are, there's about 75 people on the march, possibly peaking at 100 on a good day.

Oh we do see it VERY clearly.
What you seek will lead to England and perhaps Wales out of the UK and out of the EU and in the splendid isolation that half of its population seem to desperately seek.

Then I suggest you find a padding lined bunker, with no access to the internet, and stay there until April 13 at least - probably better, for all of us, to make that May 23rd

don't most of the inf restructure projects paid for by the tax payer happen to be in the SE of England?

Try YouTube. You’ll find plenty there. Think the Commission made him “leader of the house” for Brexit. He got some sort of position but I can’t remember what it is.
 
My wife and I have a broad eclectic circle of friends, two or three Tory voters have said that they will never vote Tory again.
A couple of former 'staunch' unionists now say that they will support Indy2 as a means of staying in the EU but would never ever vote SNP.
Scots Tory voters moving towards supporting Indy2 seems to be gathering a wee bit of momentum now.
No one that we know have changed their view from stay to leave.

He's 'Brexit Coordinator'.

Certainly not a politician whose views I generally support! Reminds me of Bull Terrier in many (the bad, not the good traits) ways!

Edit:
Here's a good speech though, well countered by Farage.

Has anyone found their view on the whole brexit subject has affected their lives /relationships?

I ask as I work in the city for a financial firm which is being impacted by brexit. Of the 100+ employees I know of only 3 people (myself included) that voted leave, everyone else is strongly remain and very vocal about it.... Some in the office have taken time to talk to me about my view and we have had good exchanges on the pros and cons of the scenarios, others however actively won't talk to me about it and are genuinely dumbfounded that I still would vote leave again if another referendum took place.

I too know that I have lost "friends" on Facebook because I voted leave.

Anyone else have similar experiences ?
