WE NEED A GENERAL ELECTION – NOW

It appears the HoC has become the government of the UK which surely breaks the electoral procedure relating to the business of government. This cannot be tolerated by the electorate

As I understand it is the duty of the Executive government to propose draft legislation and the duty of Parliament to scrutinise any Bill. If Parliament can take over the role of the Executive who scrutinises the legislation

If a decision by vote in the HoC can bring about neutering a government’s policy to enact a democratic mandate from a Referendum can we be certain that this HoC represents the electorate of the UK. The antics of the last three years demonstrates we can’t.

The delay in honouring the Referendum result and the political party Manifesto commitments during the 2017 General Election means that the electorate cannot trust these MPs who are supporting this new legislation.

What mandate do they have to resist the result of the 2016 Referendum

This legislation will stop a No Deal Exit from the EU, demand a further extension and demonstrates that all along certain MPs have wanted to stop BREXIT

Those who voted for the Bill this week Tuesday are betraying the will and trust of 17.4m voters, in my view actually many more.

We need a General Election so that the electorate are able to exercise their democratic right to vote against those MPs – of whatever political party – who have ignored the 2016 Referendum decision.

We need a whole new raft of MPs in the HoC that reflect the views of the electorate. A government that will honour the mandate of the 2016 Referendum not next year but on 31 October 2019

The HoL needs to be abolished
