Nothing in this contradicts the will of the people. The only vote in the referendum was that the UK should leave the EU. Not how. Not what the future relationship with the EU should be. Not on membership of the single European market or the customs union, or the many other connections with the EU which are distinct from EU membership. The people were never asked about these things: and it’s always been obvious the electorate has widely divergent views on all of them. It was always the job of government and parliament to resolve the many unasked questions.
The UK will leave the EU at the end of March next year, and the only wish which the electorate expressed in the referendum will be satisfied.
Thanks. I’ll take that into consideration.
One question though; do you think the spirit of Brexit is being upheld as the people believed it would be with their vote to leave the EU? They may not have asked because they felt certain points were implied. Of course in a court of law an implication may not fly so it needs to be spelled out clearly on paper (and in legalese).
