Please respect our democracy

-

I HAVE voted now for 62 years and have to say that the candidate elected in my constituen­cy has never been from the party that I have supported. Neverthele­ss, on a democratic basis I have accepted that the candidate has represente­d the views of the electorate that supported them.

I therefore find it very difficult to accept the attitude of those MPs elected this year at the stance they are taking on Brexit.

At the referendum on a very broad basis the Conservati­ve party were in favour of exit and the Labour party remain.

Therefore, following the referendum with the exception of Newcastle upon Tyne the REMEMBER the debt of Xmas last year Your budget and bank balance were almost beyond repair You have already convenient­ly forgot But I can assure you I certainly have not And yet once again you will overspend Remember the bank manager will not always be a friend Overspendi­ng on the never never I know from experience is far from clever Try not to let the situation get out of hand Believe me I do sympathise and understand I know once again you will ignore my advice As I have been in the same situation more than once or twice. vast majority of Labour areas voted to exit areas by overwhelmi­ng majorities.

Why is it now despite the obvious problems in the negotiatio­n process are those Labour MPs whose constituen­ts voted out are going to oppose the Brexit Bill Some lack the ability to make themselves understood And their manners are poor not at all good Whispering or speaking too loud Can confuse all around Try to speak slowly and be more precise And do not repeat yourself twice Speak in a pleasant friendly manner Without a stutter or a stammer Do not talk down and listen to what others have to say And you may remain friends at the end of the day Treat and speak to people with due respect And you may just achieve your object.
