Except, perhaps, that the EU may, possibly be considered establishment? Just a thought.

I know you've got to rationalise it somehow but could you find a way that doesn't undermine the opinions of millions of people?
A good thought as it happens.

Whether he thinks Brexit is a good idea or a bad idea is about as (or equally) important to whether you or
I think it is a good idea. Mr Hawking is mainly renowned for his scientific knowledge which does not make his view any more or less worthwhile. I think the point of the quote is that those in the Referendum campaign who thought his views to be particularly important shouldn't dismiss them now he is talking about the changed post Referendum world.
One of my best mates is from Pontefract. I remember his mate saying how it must be great fro us to live so close to Cornwall!

Never said he did (say Brexit was a good idea). And I read the interview, so please don't be so patronising.
What he said that you would obviously like to exclude was that politicians trying to overturn or ignore the result of the referendum would be making a terrible mistake:
As I said, remarkable words from a remarkable man. Respect.
Because it's in Yorkshire which is a horrible place.

I beg to differ. York is a wonderful city, definitely one of the best English cities/large towns. And Leeds, if you like cities is good. The dales and north Yorkshire are outstanding.
Really, i found the county great. The Yorkshire Dales are stunning and loads of culture and historic places.

Nottes implied it by trying to draw out some kind of irony in the post:
"Yeah, it's awful when you go to A&E and it's full... of foreign doctors and nurses wanting to save you're life."
I think that even with controlled immigration and hopefully skills we need, there will still be "foreign doctors and nurses wanting to save you're life", as these will be amongst the people coming in, and amongst the people who want to live and work here.

Indeed another faux friend of the working class, a bit like Farage. Made his money and now its all about an ego trip based on somew nationalist idealogy, the likes of Wakefield will be stitched up by Brexit.
Giving London one in the eye will make the likes of Wakefield feel better for a moment, until they realise you don't get better off by making the whole nation poorer

So Wakefield was a great success story was it when we were part of the 'project'?
In relation to this weeks supreme court hearing into article 50 (potentially having to be debated by parliament) I am posting this. Very interesting actually considering the original high courts ruling was so reliant on precedent/s set in the English civil war era. If this is right what is to stop Theresa May?
'Prior to Prime Minister Ted Heath signing the Treaty of Rome back in 1973, an act which led us into the then European Economic Community, Mr Heath wrote to the highest legal authority in the land, the then Lord Chancellor Lord Kilmuir, asking him about the legal ramifications of signing up to such a treaty.
Although we do not have a copy of Mr. Heath’s letter we do have a copy of Lord Kilmuir’s reply (which can be found on the internet by entering ‘Lord Kilmuir’s letter to Ted Heath’). In his reply Lord Kilmuir makes it very clear that ceding sovereignty to a foreign power, in any way shape or form and to any degree, would be an act of sedition and treason under the 1351 Treason Act and a Praemunire, under the 1392 Act of Praemunire, Treason under the 1559 Act of Supremacy and Treason under the 1688/9 Declaration and Bill of Rights. Despite this clear and unequivocal legal ruling, Ted Heath chose to ignore this warning and, Quisling like, signed the Treaty of Rome. As the signing of the Treaty of Rome constituted an act of Treason then this renders Ted Heath’s signature, to that Treaty, null and void. The Treaty itself is meaningless to the UK.
As one Parliament is not bound by acts made or passed by its predecessor then each and every government since the time of Ted Heath has likewise committed, or perhaps perpetuated the act treason enacted by Ted Heath, including the present incumbent. No contract is enforceable if it is found to be unlawful. Likewise, no treaty is enforceable if it too is found to be unlawful, as the signing of all EU treaties constituted the act of treason committed by the signatory at the time of signing. Every and all EU treaty’s are unlawful and therefore unenforceable. That being so, then the answer to the question "Can We Legally Leave the European Union?" - is ‘No’, we cannot legally leave the EU as we are not, and have never been, a member of it legally, moreover, as we are not a member of the EU, we do not need to invoke Article 50. All we need do is walk away and leave the rest of the EU to extricate itself from the self-inflicted bird’s nest of a mess it has got itself into, if willingly handing over sovereignty to a foreign power is an act of treason where then does that leave all the folk who voted Remain?'
Not my research just posting it.
