"Leaving the EU is not the same as bailing out of Europe entirely."

The UK wont be physically moving anywhere. And since the EU is in Europe and not the other way around the UK will be in Europe. Also leaving the EU political project does not mean refusing to interact with the EU it just means leaving the club/cartel.

"As for doing what the people vote for, didn't Herr May just reject any discussion regarding the 1.8M who "voted" for the government not to entertain the odious orange one..."

There was a vote? I dont recall a referendum on the invite/arrival of trump. I remember reading something about a petition which is not a referendum or vote. Something which is in place so a group of people can petition government for a response and the gov responded. It might not be the response the petitioners wanted but if a minority could push a petition to dictate to government then we would have left the EU long ago but probably also have a volatile country that would be inconsistent daily.
