A Motion has been tabled by Dominic Grieve effectively enabling a small group of MPs to take control of Parliament. This motion is open to all parties and would need only 10 Conservative MPs to vote in its favour. If, they do then of course it would mean the Government were no longer in control of the process leaving the way open to stop Brexit.
South Bucks 78.4 % turnout. Remain 20,077 and Leave 20,647

This is an outrageous act of sabotage. The Government should immediately call a General election at which point deselection should take place. Failing to do so would open this country to untold problems. It is a selfish act of sabotage. In the words of no. 10 it represents "A very British Coup".
One man is not above 17.4M voters it is an abuse of power in the most extreme. This will overturn centuries of proven Parliamentary procedures. Not since Queen Anne 1707 has a sitting Monarch not approved or given Royal Assent we could well be facing another such period.
Shocking behaviour.
