Could the referendum result be legally challenged?

If it was left to 'democracy', we would have capital punishment.

However, M.P.'s have the foresight en masse to reject that, again and again.

I favour for a murder conviction, life imprisonment, and literally for that term.

I also know that some people in the past have been executed by the state, for crimes they did not commit.

Sometimes, IMO , the public does not know best, many people react without thinking things through properly.

Don't you agree ?

I agree with all that although I do not agree with life imprisonment meaning for life.  Except for a certain few really nasty premeditated murders or multiple murderers. 

Rather than thinking it through, too many people these days are taken in by the propaganda and razzmatazz, imo ... and they are a danger to Democracy. 

On TV today it was suggested that Politicians who deliberately lie in order to deceive, should be held responsible and punished.  What a good idea.  Why hasn't this been implemented before?

She already stated it will be invoked by end of this year and her newly-appointed Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, David Davis, confirmed same yesterday.

No Court can dictate to the UK government how they will govern.  The UK Parliament has ultimate veto over any Court.

Parliamentary sovereignty (also called parliamentary supremacy or legislative supremacy) is a concept in the constitutional law of some parliamentary democracies. It holds that the legislative body has absolute sovereignty, and is supreme over all other government institutions, including executive or judicial bodies.

It is worth looking at what they both say and not what the press say they say.

Indeed.

What a politician does and what they do are often two different things.

Just look at the history of the Foreign Secretary as Mayor of London.

54% of Londoners think he was a success.

He may not be perfect but at least he's prepared to change his mind when he's wrong about something.

Can you list his achievements, those things he promised to do and did.

What he lied about and failed to do,  I have already cited on here.

Boris Johnson is a democratically elected MP
You might not like him but that is of no importance
The electorate did

Theresa May played a blinder getting both Boris and Andrea on side.  We are certainly in for some interesting goings on as they prepare to invoke Article 50.  Onwards and upwards!   The Yanks and the Aussies just simply adore him apparently!

All that is in prospect with her choices, is that she appointed the fall guys for the failures ahead.

Meanwhile in Turkey tonight there is an attempted military coup. So that will end Turkey's prospect of EU membership.

Sorry to disappoint, but I did.

Including the ratings out of five.

The man is incompetent and a liar.

Unfortunately his buffoonery won him votes and fame.

In the real world he is a laughing stock.

Love him or loathe him, more of the UK public supported his rhetoric for Brexit than believed in a PM voted in on an English majority one year ago. The fickleness of the UK voter knows no bounds.
Just be thankful (from your own perspective) that Boris is not PM - yet.

Are you aware Misty of his major faux pas.

For example he accused the Turkish President of sexual relations with a goat.

Accused people in Africa of water melon smiles.....

He is a walking disaster.

Sooner or later, people will see him for what he is.

I don't think the poem actually refers directly to the Turkish PM...... and he may just have put a G in the wrong place.......
He's funny & clever. I like him. Lighten up a bit - it's the only way to get through these dismal times.
