@PickardJE Thank you. An excellent cheat sheet for MPs.
There is good prep work to be done for questions....

@PickardJE When you say take back control of our money, do you mean taking back control of a full 0.37% of the amount of total Govt expenditure that actually goes to the EU?
Alongside this, please confirm to the House much money have we totally lost control of in preparing for Brexit.

@PickardJE And when you say taking back control of our borders, why do we have more immigration from outside the EU currently, + in order to get those cherished "deals" with the world, is it not true we will need to provide 10,000s visas to get those deals?

@PickardJE And when you talk about protecting jobs, when Brexit process has already caused 180,000 reported job losses in the UK, what on earth makes you think that pursuing this craven project will do anything other than further destroy UK businesses?

@PickardJE And to protect security, surely we will need to have certainty over future security arangements and how we share information with the EU? - something that is onlly vague assurances in the Brexit 'deal'.

@PickardJE But most absurd is the promise to provide certainty.
How is a lacklustre handful of pages covering the UK's future trading aragements with the EU, drafted in the vaguest terms, the resuilt of 2 years of negotiation, providing certainty?

@PickardJE Perhaps a perfect piece of Orwellian post truth polticis is assuring us that the deal will create less division, when now all the polls have the "will of the people" to Remain at a FAR greater margin than that by which the Leave vote was won.

@PickardJE But the problem with the current Govt is that they have so totally lost touch with reality, that they can no longer determine what is true and what is not true.
So when they lie, they do not do so intentionally, but in fact, earnestly believe their lies

@PickardJE So, to start to dissect in detail a set of assertions that are as much reality you would find down Alice in Wonderland's rabbit hole.
A waste of time.
Lets just look at the headline lies:

@PickardJE 1, 2, 3, and 4, - nonsense, and dealt with. You embarass yourselves and the country!
5. Take back control of our laws?
WE NEVER LOST CONTROL OF OUR LAWS!
We happened to agree some good ones though, with our European neigbbours.
WHICH WE WILL STILL NEEED EVEN IF WE LEAVE!

@PickardJE And finally, that old 'integrity of the UK' problem has just been kicked down the road.
It has not been resolved at alll by the Govt's deal.
It just leaves everthing to go horribly wrong later, rather than now.
So. Please. Get with the program, and support a #PeoplesVote

@PickardJE PS Apologies for the typos - getting late. Put it down to the frustration / impatience at this chronically awful Government that delivers pap like that, when the UK is facing a national emergency, and real threats to its democracy, stability, and freedoms.
