Thank you Burneside for pointing out the UK has, and has had, control of much of its own legislation whilst being a member of the EU.
Lets get out by whatever means and then see what happens. It is no good saying this might happen or that might be a possibility. What are pepole so afraid of?
Nobody will be forcing you to eat anything you don't want to, just like now. And it may surprise you to learn that we had employment protection laws in this country long before joining the EEC/EC/EU and in some cases they far exceed the EU protection. For example, in the UK maternity leave is 52 weeks, while just 14 weeks under EU law. Is that what you want?
In the constituency of Newton Abbot the number of people registering in favour of this petition stands at 637 or 0.72% of the eligible constituents. Bit of an embarrassing shambles real don't you think. For Leavers the concept of TMs deal is nothing more than moving the chairs on the Titanic and as such only an exit with no agreement is acceptable. The Irish boarder backstop won't be ...

Dublin has already alerted the EU Commission that it will be lobbying for emergency aid to cope with the fallout to Irish trade, particularly for the beef, dairy ...
I see May has been telephoning Merkel to plead for concessions in order to get her treasonous deal through parliament. When it comes to these negotiations it is always Merkel calling the shots, never the Dutch, Spanish or any of the other leaders of EU member states. Which just about sums up what the EU is all about. ...
Every year for the last 14 or so years I have helped out with the mock interviews for Dawlish Community College with the Rotary. I go into to them each year wondering what the quality of interviewees will be as the preceeding year has been good - each year I'm incredibly proud of our young people. Always a mixed bag with regard to their aims in life but regularly I see those wanting to join ...
Where will the skills come from? I have noticed with some alarm the number of children already hooked on games. Whilst they are playing games for hours every day---yes every day, they are not learning anything else. Thankfully (or at least i don't think so) it has anything to do with brexit, although I bet you there will be some that will try and hang their hat on it. Will the government ...
