Three parties committed to a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. Those three parties are sitting in a Parliament of such doubtful legitimacy, with an Executive led by an unelected Prime Minister from a Scottish seat, (whose country has its own elected Parliament), claiming to wield the majority of an ousted Leader; a majority which could be used to end the independence of our country.
A discredited Speaker (returned, too, by a Scottish electorate) sits before the Mace, presiding over a symbol of the authority of Parliament won from autocratic rule.
We shall see today if the members of our Parliament are Jugglers, Whoremasters, and Drunkards who have cheated the Publick.

Perhaps the people should hold an Internet-based referendum on whether they consider themselves bound by such an historic decision made in such circumstances.
Perhaps people will do more than that if our members of Parliament do not meet their electorates' reasonable expectations that manifesto commitments, on which votes have been given, are not met.
Elections are battles by other means.
Returned by a Westminster electorate surely?
Unless your subtlety escapes me.
STB.
A Westminster electorate in name only; the Scots have their own Parliament and are governed by a different Party, having rejected Labour at their last elections. Their governing Party, too, is openly and fundamentally for independence for Scotland from any further involvement with Westminster.
The Labour rump hangs onto power without any electoral validation, with a quasi presidential system and the 'presidency' occupied by an unelected prime minister sitting for a Scottish seat.
