And after the next GE - possibly sometime in the autumn???

A referendum was held, a vote taken to leave.
The Government is doing what it has been instructed to do by the electorate, if Labour had won, Corbyn would have to do the same.
That is not appealing to the most basest of instincts.
It is democracy, something that you seem unable to grasp.

So it could be argued, quite correctly that she no longer has a mandate from the electorate.

The Election did not override the Referendum, which was to leave.

By the way, have you ever considered that your venom and pathological hatred for all things non communist is not just sad, but ultimately self defeating as you have no argument other than that to offer the debate?

Was it Mark Twain or Oscar Wilde who once said that patriotism was the last resort of a scoundrel???
