Right Oh! you'd think they'd get the flag up the right way!

they were always a bit skew whiff, as to another referendum, please not another one..

Leader Sir Vince Cable said: "This potential timeline to a public vote shows Brexit is not a done deal.

"It can be stopped, but not without the approval of the British public. It's time the Conservatives - and the Labour leadership - listened."

Some people - for their own reasons - fail to grasp that a Referendum is a binding vote, not a best-of-three.

Because the Lib Dems have about as much influence on political process as the breeze on a summer day, that gives them carte blanche to come up with anything they want, the battier the better, safe in the knowledge that no-one is ever likely to take them seriously as a political force for the foreseeable future.

They seem to lose the plot on so many things.
A privilege one has if one is not a serious contender anyway; I suppose.

It's supposed to be a sign of distress T³

andy, a referendum is not a binding vote. We live in a parliamentary democracy: parliament is in charge, not the public, like it or not. And there's nothing to stop another referendum being called. After all, May called a general election years before she had to, though strangely I don't recall any Brexiters protesting about this, though it seems to have damaged Brexit negotiations by badly weakening May herself.

Well what a surprise, the Liberal Democrats not understanding Democracy

[Old_Geezer]

Claiming that the UK is a democracy makes the result of any referendum morally binding. Failing to make it legally binding is just an epic fail of government.

How general elections are run is not something that the public have had a referendum on. Fixed terms is another epic fail of government.

May may be weakened getting legislation through the House but there's no change over Brexit negotiations. There she is as strong as she's ever been.

"Because the Lib Dems have about as much influence on political process as the breeze on a summer day...."

Are we to dismiss the Butterfly Effect?

[Jackdaw33]

A better simile might be '...as much impact as a fart in a gale'.

[New Judge]

I'm more worried about our national flag being flown upside down than I am about Mr Cable's manic meanderings.

[jno]

she is as strong as she's ever been

I disagree. Previously, she didn't have to run everything past the DUP.

[Togo]

No more EU taxes....let's wave our Union Jacksies. :))

[Old_Geezer]

She was obliged to not hang NI out to dry anyway.
