Nobody can say it's undemocratic to want to leave with a deal with the EU because that was being sold as really easy peasy by the leave campaign before the vote.

To demand some sort of deal with the European Commission before BREXIT is lunacy. It gives the Commission the whip hand from the get-go.
NO-ONE WOULD EVER NEGOTIATE ANYTHING BY GIVING THE OTHER PARTY CARTE-BLANCHE TO SET THE GROUND RULES IN CONCRETE FROM THE BEGINING.

What is undemocratic about that??
The advantage of having an election and NOT another ref
is that it can serve as a referendum at the same time as an
election with the added advantage that if it goes the right

If it weren't state funded (by us) and was obliged to fund itself through advertising, it would have gone into liquidation before now.

With democracy you are not stuck with the same lot forever.
The same with football. You lose a game, there will be another chance to win next year.
