One of the reasons it went to a referendum as its a constitution change.

Then it was even more stupid.

I certainly agree it was, but it is the nature of referendums to be held on constitutional changes.

Well done - you can post links.

 

And what constitutional safeguards do we have to prevent a government acting as an elected dictatorship?

What constitution? Where is the document that details it all?

There were, and remain, very deep economic, social and cultural divisions in our society which have directly led to the working class revolt against the social inequality status quo of the UK's EU trading bloc membership. 

 

Brexit is just the first stage of a revolutionary struggle to empower working people in this country. The anti-No Deal groups can't decide who is the greater threat to their status quo - a No Deal Brexit or the leader of the Opposition. But they all agree that those supposedly better educated and better qualified than the electorate should be making the decisions, and not the people. 

 

The story of our EU membership is just another chapter in a long and bloody story of forcing the markets discipline onto the state and its workers. We are now entering an existential crisis for capitalist institutions and the elites as Brexit becomes a first step on the road to a vast redistribution of wealth and power in this country. Something the EU elites will do everything in their power to avoid.

 

Bring on the Class War.

You know there isn't a written constitution. 

 

That doesn't mean we don't have a constitution. The link explains it well. It means that it is based on law and statute, and ultimately the courts would decide if something was constitutional or not based on precedent. 

[Obelix 11]

We all know that.

 

Well I'm not sure that the camel does actually... Hence the question.

Really?

 

Would they (could they?) overrule a statute passed by a majority of one to expel all immigrants?
