Dear Caroline,
Following the European Court of Justice Ruling that Article 50 can be withdrawn, the choice is no longer between “this deal and no deal”, but between “this deal, no deal or no Brexit”. Whilst we agree that Mrs May’s plan is better than the disastrous option of ‘no deal’, her deal is still a bad deal for Romsey & Southampton North and for the country.
For all these reasons – and many more – Mrs May’s deal is a bad deal. The best ‘deal’ available for Britain remains ‘no Brexit’, staying in the EU with all the exceptions, rebates, exemptions and vetoes previously negotiated – mostly by Conservative Governments. The government has already more than honoured the 2016 Referendum by spending billions of pounds to get us to this point. We are all now able to see the actual options in much greater clarity with untruths uncovered. As a democracy we should adapt and change course when we see we are mistaken. We should look after the interests of the whole country, not just those who voted to leave. The vote for Theresa May’s Brexit deal is likely to be lost in Parliament. We ask you, in that scenario, to use your influence at the heart of government to support a People’s Vote, a referendum on the final deal, which includes remaining in the EU as an option. Yours sincerely, |
Add Your Name ...
