Europe, Referendum & Brexit (formerly Europe..IN or OUT??)

I still think despite the Government winning last night, I don't think Mrs May can afford to celebrate just yet.
I don't think the Lords will be an easy ride (with or without amendments) I'm sure there could be enough uneasy voices on both sides of the Upper House to defeat it and send it back to the Commons and I still think there will be more challenges to it in the Supreme courts before Article 50 is finally triggered and I reckon it won't be done by end of March as she wanted.
I think it could be possibly end of April or beginning of May or even early June before she can finally trigger it. The Lords are notorious for rejecting Bills of this nature as I bet many see it as too much of conflict of interest for them and most likely abstain and I would be very surprised if it got through there without a hiccup or two

I really hope the Lords do throw a spanner in the works. Not because I want to stay in the EU but because it'll be the perfect opportunity to get rid of the whole lot and go for an elected upper house.

It will be like turkeys voting for Christmas

And the money saved by not having a House of Lords could be ploughed into the NHS.

the House of lords is just a geriatic ward anyway.

Get rid of houses of parlament anyway they want 5 billion to do the whole thing up.

Didn't take them long did it? I know he is a prick but at the same time I think his stance on Trump addressing Parliament that probably is a view shared by some people around the country
