No doubt the majority vote will win in the end and then have to put up with whatever happens then. PS: Every country relies on co operation, and America at least will not necessarily comply. Obama did try to warn Britain of this fact and he was ignored.

Obama did try to warn Britain of this fact and he was ignored. Obama tried to INTIMIDATE the people of Britain into voting to Remain and quite rightly we ignored him. And independence does NOT rule out co-operation with other countries while membership of the EU actually DOES (except if the 27 other members agree to it.) Democracy, as Winston Churchill said, is the worst system of government in the world apart from all the others that have been tried. And Brexit WON.

Theresa May seems to be visiting Germany a lot as far as I can see, and everything is still on hold the last time I looked at the news.

The result was a victory for Leave. Ever since the Remoaners (out of 650 MPs nearly 500 voted to Remain) have been trying to STOP Brexit from happening. The theory is that our withdrawal is postponed till October 2019 UNLESS the PM can get her deal through Parliament BEFORE that date (which seems unlikely.) In the meantime we're being forced to elect MEPs for the European Parliament and - surprise, surprise - Nigel Farage's Brexit Party is well ahead in the polls!

Is that good or bad according to the majority who want to leave?

Is that good or bad according to the majority who want to leave? Bad - speaking as a Leaver - but we'll just force ourselves to vote for Farage and at least send a message to the crooks in Westminster that we mean business! Oh, where's our Cromwell?

It is maybe more trouble than it is worth in the end. There are crooks everywhere, so you never know when you will encounter one.
