  1. Julie is clueless. She is just repeating the same old propaganda.

  2. THE UK CANNOT GET INVOLVED WITH THE LEAVE PROCESS NEGOTIATIONS. IT IS DOWN TO THE OTHER 27 MEMBERS STATES. THEY ARE LYING TO YOU ALL. It is likely that the European Council will then hand over to the European Commission and the Council of the EU to run the detailed negotiations. Using the European Council’s guidelines as a starting point, the Commission will draw on its legal, technical and policy expertise to draft a more detailed mandate for the negotiations, including recommendations on each area under negotiation. This mandate may also cover the process through which the negotiations will be conducted, and working arrangements between the Council and the Commission. The Commission's draft mandate will then be discussed by the Council of the EU and must be agreed by a Qualified Majority Vote (excluding the UK). It may take several meetings of the Council to agree the final mandate. Once the mandate is agreed, the Commission will take over the negotiation process.

  3. From ones understating it is not down to Parliament to decide on a deal but it is down to the EU council and EU bodies. So by them claiming that it is down to a vote in the house of common to decide is another blatant lie. https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainers/eu%E2%80%99s-role-brexit-negotiations.

  4. YOU HAVE ALL BEEN DECEIVED. IT IS NOT DOWN TO PARLIAMENT TO DECIDE ON THE FINAL DEAL THEY ARE LYING TO YOU. THEY ARE FEEDING YOU ALL LIP SERVICE. Who gets a vote on the final deal? Both the Council of the EU and the European Parliament are entitled to vote on the final deal. Once negotiations have concluded, the Council of the EU submits the draft withdrawal agreement to the European Parliament where it is put to a vote. The agreement needs a simple majority in order to proceed. Subsequently, the draft agreement returns to the Council of the EU. The Council also votes on the agreement but in this case, the agreement needs a qualified majority in order to pass – i.e. 72% of the 27 members states (representing at least 65% of the total population of the 27 member states) need to vote in favour of the agreement. Only once the agreement gains consent from both of these institutions can it be formally adopted and negotiations officially concluded by the Council of the EU. The final agreement must be signed by the UK Government and the legislative consequences dealt with by the UK Parliament.
