May hasn't formally asked for an extension and even if granted, the requisite legislation may be a statutory instrument but there is a process to get it through commons and lords and they only have 12 days (including today).Marknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-52978210455900269472019-03-18T13:40:27.831+00:002019-03-18T13:40:27.831+00:00Raed you may be right, word on the wire is that Ma...Raed you may be right, word on the wire is that May expects -if MPs don't agree with her treaty this week- to be offered a 9 month extension by the EU. Which to my mind would indicate, by the length of it, the extension will indeed be coupled with another referendum :( ...God help us all. <br /><br />3 months to get to the EU elections and then the oft mentioned 6 months to hold a referendum. jack ketchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07921268825653615322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-33239139011847014742019-03-18T11:31:22.220+00:002019-03-18T11:31:22.220+00:00No, it would be Rod Liddle-Remi Moses

("The Peoples Vote not mentioned once of course since it's been laughed out of court .... this is a very different kind of vote. So different, it's identical.)<br /><br />The choice would be:<br /><br />a) Accept Treason May's Surrender<br />b) Remain in the EU (by default)<br /><br />And this time it would be binding on MPs; the decision would not return to Parliament. So the people would get what the majority voted for. Except LEAVE is not on offer!<br /><br />DeeDee99https://www.blogger.com/profile/06753473473887381622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-50177653421367110002019-03-18T07:34:13.585+00:002019-03-18T07:34:13.585+00:00Since the Establishment are determined to stop Bre...Since the Establishment are determined to stop Brexit, they must be made to own the betrayal.<br /><br />The British people must understand that the likes of Blair, Mandelson, Hammond and Heseltine have over-ruled them and this country is not a democracy.

Not possible on two counts - the betrayers have no moral scruples, and few own revolvers. <br /><br />One other point strikes me about the publication of this guidance now - that it's intended to catch all Leave Means Leave / Brexit Party expenditure back to 23rd Jan as 'election expenditure', including the current march, even though much of the money spent will have been spent when no election had been announced and this guidance had not been issued.<br /><br />It seems the betrayer establishment are already building more legal cases against anyone who supports Brexit, a sort of muzzle on free speech of which the Stasi would be proud.
