I'm not entirely against posh rich people being MPs etc we all deserve to be represented if we could just make sure there are people representing all stratas of society I'd be happier.

Well, they were warned . . . but never mind - it's just "Project Fear". (Like Trump ignoring unwelcome news as "Fake news").

(As if, by the way, the "threat" of a "European Super State" isn't a "Project Fear".)

I'm keeping RM because his faultless, perfect, cut-glass voice is entertaining to listen to, plus his refusal to ever rise to anyone's baiting, makes him okay in my book.
It seems you are going to end up with a novelty. We known one-issue political parties, but the UK will have a one-issue parliament. You must be a happy country with only one problem to solve. Or do you fantasize that solving brexit will solve every problem in your country?

I just wish we had MPs and a Prime Minister who actually cared about what was best for England and ALL its people rather than putting party politics and their own wealth and their wealthy friends first all the time.

They will be doing that only if they revoke article 50.
