MADAM - 2016 delivered the largest democratic vote in the history of this country. The emphatic message the public delivered nationally also featured an enormous 65% share of the Stourbridge vote representing 'Leave'.

This unexpected result rocked the establishment to the core, why? The political class had stopped listening to the people, little they have done in the subsequent nearly three years serves to dispel that assertion.

Both main parties have reneged in their 2017 manifesto promise to deliver the Brexit people voted for, the Government and opposition have done everything possible to ensure our opinion is irrelevant.

Not too long ago our Government was complicit in removing Colonel Gaddafi from power in Libya because he had stopped listening to the people. Be careful what you wish for Mrs May. Their behaviour only goes to prove that if voting made a difference, they wouldn't let us do it.
