Sir,
TMay continues to worry ERG MPs that we will get no Brexit, if they fail to vote for her WA trap.
She had no legal authority to request a date change to 12/04 without a new Parliament Act and we have already left.
But if around 30 ERG MPs were to doubt the above legal position, then her WA Bill could pass at the 4th hearing.
But if you believe (as I do) that her extension was unlawful, then they must continue to hold their nerve. So I propose to email them again, as below:
Dear (name)
Thank you for your continuing conviction and tenacity in honouring the will of the 408 constituencies, which voted to leave the E.U. – not to remain half in/half out.
While International Treaties such as NAFTA and NATO have unilateral escape clauses, the proposed WAB does not and it is a trap.
As you know MPs had no legal authority to request a date change to 12/04 without a new Parliament Act, which means that we actually left the E.U. on 29/03.
So please don’t be intimidated into voting for the the PM’s proposed WAB, leaving us enslaved to the E.U. rulebook. Your vision and integrity is much appreciated.
YS

Sir,
On the 10th November 2015, the then Prime Minister, David Cameron made his Chatham House speech on Europe. Memorably, and notably, he said, and I quote verbatim:
“And ultimately it will be the judgment of the British people in the referendum that I promised and that I will deliver. You will have to judge what is best for you and your family, for your children and grandchildren, for our country, for our future. It will be your decision whether to remain in the EU on the basis of the reforms we secure, or whether we leave. Your decision. Nobody else’s. Not politicians’. Not Parliament’s. Not lobby groups’. Not mine. Just you. You, the British people, will decide. At that moment, you will hold this country’s destiny in your hands. This is a huge decision for our country, perhaps the biggest we will make in our lifetimes. And it will be the final decision.”
He went on to say:
“When the British people speak, their voice will be respected – not ignored. If we vote to leave, then we will leave. There will not be another renegotiation and another referendum.”
His successor, Prime Minister Theresa May, doubled down on that pledge with her ‘Brexit Means Brexit’, ‘No Deal Is Better Than A Bad Deal’, her ‘Red Lines’ and finally her repetition, one hundred and eight times in the House of Commons, that ‘Britain will leave the European Union on 29th March 2019.’
Respectfully, H. Armitage

Sir,
UK: guilty of Brexit, prisoner of the ‘deal’?
Since House of Commons Speaker John Bercow has allowed Mrs May a third vote on her Withdrawal Agreement minus the political declaration – thus, apparently, making the proposition ‘substantially different’ – there is now a chance that her ‘deal’ will be passed, despite the fact that the EU may never allow us to withdraw from the Withdrawal Agreement. Now it seems even prisoners can get the key to their cells (‘Prisoners get the key to their own cells at “respectful” jail’, Telegraph, March 29, 2019).
At least they never agreed to being locked up in the first place and, as far as we know, the only crime that the UK electorate is guilty of is voting to leave the EU. Despite this, not only will we hand them the key to our cell but they may well throw it away.
Respectfully, Ann Farmer
According to the H.O.C. library site, the correct Statutory Instrument was laid before the house and voted through, last week, by a large majority. Thus UK law was brought into line with the agreement between the government and the EU on delaying our Brexit until one of the two dates mentioned, 12th April being the earliest.
I like to believe this is not the case.
Am I wrong here?
Roger Arthur: I’m just engaged in a similar exercise: but do you think they will read our emails if we aren’t their constituents?
Technically no. When emailing MPs, you should provide your name and address to show that you live in that MP’s constituency. I have read guidelines elsewhere that you should only really contact your own MP.
I just had an encouraging answer from one of them so yes I think its worth doing. I didn’t write about the legality of the extension however, as all the judiciary are hostile to us; although I wish English Democrats Robin Tilbrook the very best in his noble attempt to challenge this dodgy extension. i wrote about the coming EU fiscal meltdown, our liability to pay the lion’s share for it, and coming totalitarian measures of making us pay.
All very fine, with accurate quotations !
I have had a belly full of this stupid nonsense, and I demand ACTION NOW !
Now in my 70s, but ready to do my duty as both my late Father and Mother did in 1939-45 !
Give me a rifle with a bayonet and this Government WILL make the correct Democratic clearance !
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO THE EDITOR.
THERE IS A MISTAKE IN YOUR FIRST MAIL. LEAVING DATE SHOULD READ 29/3 NOT 29/4. OTHERWISE A GOOD MAIL.
Thanks – corrected.
Great letter and I have already written to Mogg and some of the others with my own views.
NB Your letter needs to be amended to “we actually left the E.U. on 29/03” not “29/04”
“As you know MPs had no legal authority to request a date change to 12/04 without a new Parliament Act, which means that we actually left the E.U. on 29/04.” Should be 29/03 surely?
Herr Hitler seems to have a very good grasp of the Brexit situation if you ask me.

So true.
