Brexit has well and truly begun!

Going on your past posts, you seem to think it's OK to get elected on a mandate which you then reject. Then it's OK to keep the seat despite no longer having a mandate.

If it wasn’t OK then there would be a rule that anyone leaving a political party automatically lost their seat. As there isn’t then I assume it is acceptable and it certainly wouldn’t be the first time this has happened.

What if the mandate on which you were elected is no longer one which is recognisable to you?  What if the party of which you have been a member for forty or fifty plus years is no longer one which is recognisable to you?  What if constituencies and selection conferences are now the province of a particular faction and no longer the 'broad church' which it endeavoured to be?

Britain’s second largest insurer has announced it will move £9bn worth of assets to Ireland as it prepares for Brexit.

Aviva, which has more than 14.5 million policyholders, has received approval from the High Court in London to transfer €9bn (£7.8bn) to Dublin.

It follows approval earlier this month to move £1bn to the Irish capital.

The move, which is timed for 10.59pm on 29 March, is designed to deal with the consequences of a no-deal Brexit.

Yep.

On Friday, NatWest, part of Royal Bank of Scotland, is due to ask a court in Edinburgh to approve its application to move £6 billion in assets and £7 billion in liabilities from Britain to its Dutch hub.

So this is how we take back control - by scaring off investors, manufacturing businesses and the big guns in the city.  Keep calm and carry on, everything will be fine...

You forgot better national security by no longer having access to databases on dodgy people, no EAWs...

According to Peston, May had said that a referendum would undermine social cohesion. How prophetic...

If all else fails, blame our overdue exit from this freeloaders' paradise on businesses jumping ship   Methinks you're overly biased... maybe falling global sales and poor customer service are the real reasons for Yves Rocher's demise...

The company said that, following an extensive review of its operations, prompted by falling global volumes in recent years, Groupe Roche Operations had taken the decision to consolidate its manufacturing at its Brittany base.

Falling demand plus Brexit uncertainty can tip a company over the edge in decision-making.
