Sure. Advisory means mandatory. You're an inspiration to the Woke Left, Fairy. If an advisory referendum can be a mandatory referendum, then a man can be a woman. You popularised the idea that words mean whatever the hell you want them to mean. You inspired the transgender movement. You also inspired the Eco Warriors with your six-mile-long traffic queues out of Dover. Keep up the good work. The Left is relying on you to draw up its next strategy. Definition: "advisory" having or consisting in the power to make recommendations but not to take action enforcing them. "the Commission acts in an advisory capacity"
The UK referendum was not advisory, and it did not stipulate any such thing on the ballot papers.
LOL! It was an advisory referendum. Thanks for your guidance, by the way. An advisory referendum can be a mandatory referendum, and a man can be a woman. You've liberated the English language, and the transgender movement thanks you for your efforts.

“We are delivering on the will of the British people from the binding referendum we had in June 2016 and we are leaving the European Union.”
In the same House of Lords report that said referenda were not legally binding, the committee concluded that “it would be difficult for Parliament to ignore a decisive expression of public opinion”.

The UK referendum was not advisory Errm, yes it was. So the promise of the Prime Minister that the referendum decision would be implemented didn't count? So let me take you back some 40 years when the then Prime Minister, Harold Wilson made the same promise that Labour would honour the result; sure enough, they did and we remained in.

No need to rub our noses in the fact that you're a philosopher poet and we're just plebs.

I'm amused that you believe that Tory MP's are automatically Johnson supporters - many of them hated him more than the opposition. As for lying - Johnson was very careful in how he phrased his statements, so much so that the Committee could not produce a single definitive lie as evidence. I'm not saying that Johnson is not dishonest but being hung out to dry by a group that have no more honesty and integrity than him is the definition of a kangaroo court. Glad to see that you've read the report before it's been published. We already know everything that Johnson said - it was all reported in Hansard. Johnsons enemies have been pouring over that for months looking in vain for some evidence.

No, it didn't count. That's the fundamental rule of the constitution: no Parliament can bind a Parliament that follows it. If that very august institution the British Parliament can't bind future Parliaments, a single member of Parliament, even if he is the Prime Minister, certainly can't bind a future Parliament all by himself. LOL! The refugees coming in on the boats know more about the Constitution than the typical Daily Mail chav. They have a much better chance of passing a citizenship exam than Fairy and Jonksy et al.

It did count you clown, can you imagine when the result came in to leave, and then we were told 'sorry it doesn't count, it was just advisory', now there would have been uproar and a total legitimate legal argument to take the government to court, we were told the result would be 'honored' either way, and that admission would have lead the way for a clear victory over the government by the leave campaign had they denied the winning vote.

What David Cameron said about honouring the outcome of the referendum did not change its legal status of it being advisory. Or are you trying to say it does? FS's assertion that the referendum was not advisory was plainly wrong.

It didn't count. If it did count, why didn't the Leave campaign take Parliament to court to legally enforce the outcome of the referendum? Was it because they couldn't, because the result had no constitutional force at all because it was advisory? If it was a mandatory referendum, the Leave campaign wouldn't have had to wait for Boris to be elected. They could have taken Parliament to court and enforced the result. What more proof do you need that it wasn't mandatory than the fact that the Leave campaign wasn't able to do that? All of this is wasted on Daily Mail chavs. They'll never understand. The good news is that they don't have to. The majority now think that Brexit was a mistake, and Starmer will likely take steps to create Brino after the next election.
