Perhaps you should be in charge Julie.

Out of loyalty, and for what they (and especially Farage) have achieved, I should vote for them again next time. On the other hand, if May achieves our independence as she has promised, I feel I should vote Conservative in gratitude.
But then, it isn't quite as clear cut a decision. When the next general election comes along, the country really needs a viable opposition. I imagine that the Conservatives will get in again next time, but who will be there to oppose them? Both Labour and the Limp Dems are pretty much lost causes now. There will, I am sure, still be the usual SNP members continually pushing for Scottish independence, but who else?
In an ideal situation, I'd like to see UKIP become the official majority opposition to the Conservatives in government, but you never can tell. If things go badly, a vote for UKIP (which might otherwise have gone to the Conservatives) might actually weaken the Tory majority in parliament and the unthinkable could happen: Corbyn and his clowns could just conceivably achieve a majority.
What to do?

Re: The Brexit Timetable
!What’s the betting that like me, after reading what these mealy-mouthed Remain whingers are plotting, many of those that voted to leave will be doing a Uri Geller with their breakfast cereal spoons!
Just what is it with these cretins that they still won’t accept the will of the people?
Are they really so far up their own backsides sitting in their plush offices in Parliament that they deign to decide that they are no longer answerable and certainly uncaring of the decision taken by the majority of the electorate in a fair, democratic referendum in which the vote was taken to leave the EU dictatorship.
The disgraceful disrespect shown for that vote by such losers as Anne Soubry and Nicky Morgan, both deservedly sacked by Theresa May upon taking office and swept out along with the useless, hapless EU puppets, Call me Dave and Osborne, are still desperately trying to remain in the spotlight by becoming leading figures of the “Open Britain” campaign alongside those such as Nicola Sturgeon and the Labour party,Their sole aim of course is to hold off signing Article 50 now confirmed as March next year until the French and German elections have taken place in May and September also next year (no doubt hoping that the longer we wait, something will come along to help them with their treacherous aim in not standing up for democracy!),
They are of course also banging on about demanding that both Houses of Parliament should have a vote agreeing to Article 50 before it is instigated, obviously in the hope that the vote will go against it,(including them taking legal action) thereby forcing Theresa May to call an election. What a disgraceful act of anti-democracy by those whom are meant to be the servants of the people!
Parliament voted to hold the EU referendum, The referendum vote was to leave the EU. This decision should be respected by every single person in both Houses of Parliament.
It turns my stomach to think that elected representatives have the gall to state that “London and Manchester voted to remain and therefore that gives them a mandate to fight against us deciding our terms for staying in the single market and the ending of the freedom of movement for EU citizens”. How dare they ignore and disrespect the rest of the country that voted for just this..
Onward to freedom!!
I sincerely hope however, the electorate remember every single treacherous MP sticking two fingers up at the people of this country.
What are your views on these cretins?

Re: The Brexit Timetable
Whilst that maybe the desired time-table, I have a feeling that that may have to slip abit when our 'idiot' Foreign Secretary doesn't even know that Africa is a CONTINENT not a COUNTRY.I wonder if he has the nous to find his way around the European Countries far less those a little further away???

Now if you're talking about certain politicians not taking notice of the referendum, it doesn't surprise me at all. They're just doing what they always do. Your vote counts, just as long as it's to get them elected. They don't give a rat's arse about you or anyone else once they're in, and the referendum is no different. They continually stick two fingers up at the general populace, so why would you expect them to act any differently now? I hope that things turn out oaky, I really do, but I can't see things getting any better for people when we leave. By that I mean that the Tories were already well down the path of destroying local democracy, the NHS, and Public Services, and I don't think they'll have a change of heart because of the vote. All it will probably mean is, that once we're out they will be able speed things up and get on with the process with impunity. They would just have taken a little longer if the vote had gone the other way. We will be free from Europe, and that could well be a good thing, but we won't be free from the politicians - and that means all of them.

I completely agree Clumsy, the main people in this respect are the Daily Express.
Of course some of our exporters are doing well, we are still in the EU and the £ has devalued.
It would be amazing id this were not the case.
It will be at least 30 months before we leave and the economic effects start to be known.
