        Didn't somebody once say: 'Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel'?
        Perhaps she should follow Donald Trump's advice, suing the EU while building a wall around it just in case she loses in court.

          Dr Johnson if I'm not mistaken. (A Tory by political inclination.)

                Duly signed, though yet to register (for some reason they are saying I might have to wait 24 hours).

                  I had to wait for about an hour. Apparently, it crashed earlier, there are so many eager to sign. Indeed, it looks like it may have crashed again. I get a 502 Bad Gateway error currently.

                    I think it's called 'flow control'...

                    A call to revoke Article 50 generates the fastest ever rate of signatures on Parliament's website.

                    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                            Thanks Bryn...signed..... keep going, keep fighting, everyone....

                            (If you needed any more motivation...I mean, just look at the Farage-Brexit-party-news today....will he resign (yet again) and start another party now...? )
                            No doubt he'll continue to enjoy himself on Breakfast TV with Piers Morgan for apt company....

                            Cursed be those who live in interesting times, but....never give up.

                              We are in a right old mess, it would seem.

                              But there are a lot of people out there who voted leave,in good faith, and in a considered way, and whose faith in democracy will be very badly shaken if, for example , we revoke A50.

                              This may be the least of several evils, but it isn‘t to be taken lightly.



                              A second referendum, the actual deal ( ideally with controls in parliament on how the future relationship is negotiated ) or Remain seems to me to be the most honest, most democratic solution at this point if not ideal.
                              But of course we all have our own answer to this, as parliament has shown .

                              I would hope also, that our friends in the EU offer the hand of friendship in the coming weeks. Our people, if not our politicians , deserve it. I feel sure we would do so if another country was in this situation.
                              I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

                              I am not a number, I am a free man.

                                I would have signed but they wanted an email address.

                                I do have one, but it does not work - e.g. - I can't use it to access iPlayer. I can't register because my email address is still recognised by Big Brother who wants to contact me through the address - but I have no access to any emails sent to it. I can't get a new address because they recognise my old Hotmail address which does not work. I can't get a new password because they send it to my email address which I can't access.

                                This is really a cry for help.
