Do you support Boris's decision to suspend Parliament?The vote was an indication of the electorate's wishes. MPs should work for their constituents wishes. This is so old I am surprised you are using it as an argument. It was not close, close is winning by 1 vote after three recounts. It was a difference of 4% in a high vote. The plan was to was to negotiate our way out of the EU. Right out, not partially out. May lost that election due to the fact that she threatened the core Tory vote by saying she would take away the triple lock from pensioners. Not much more water to go under the bridge. The vitriol I feel will continue from the Remainers. Every weekend I am on a stall for The Brexit Party and we get sworn at and threatened by people who disagree with our aims, but very little discussion. Sure we can remain friends, whatever happens.ViewDate:

Do you support Boris's decision to suspend Parliament?Hi Mary, The first part of your post is hypothetical, you do not know if your medicine will be delayed. I have not heard of immigrants working in the NHS being sent back to their own countries. Can you reference this? Having to pay for a driving permit and visa is the EU at work....blame them. As for the millions in tax havens, the British revenue have been very active in tracking down money and disallowing tax avoidance schemes. There is no reason for it to stop when we are out of the EU.ViewDate:

Do you support Boris's decision to suspend Parliament?The first thing to ascertain is...are MPs elected to serve the electorate or themselves. The vote to leave was countrywide. All constituencies that had a leave majority should have an MP voting leave in parliament, that is democracy at work. However many MPs have followed their own wishes which is not democratic. Now the 'usual suspects' are claiming the high ground because Boris Johnson has prevented them from continually extending the amount of time taken to bring the impasse to a conclusion. The remainers will never be happy until Brexit is beaten, by any means. prorogueing parliament is not illegal, and at this time of year parliament closes for party conferences anyway.
