Greenbank in reply to @branwen

And I'm not sure how anyone could argue with that the Conservatives hold a mandate to negotiate the terms of Brexit, something that was clearly not on the cards at the time of the GE

They were elected on the promise of holding a referendum on Brexit early on during their 5 year term, so one would assume they'd have the mandate for implementing it should the great unwashed masses vote that way which, unfortunately, they did.

I'm a staunch remainer but the "Theresa May wasn't elected PM" is the clutchingest of straws.

Of course it was a jibe at the leave campaign's 'unelected official' argument rather than saying it shouldn't be the case but cool.
