Also seen huge rises in incomes to in those 40 years so a rather silly comment. But understandable and typical in this post truth age.

Dont drop your guard yet
weasel tim farron still wants another IN/OUT referendum........not sure what planet he is on but keep em peeled anyway.
Oh there will still be bitching from the LibDems and the SNP and the remainer culprits on here about what form Brexit actually takes. It doesn't change the fact that the Government now have the mandate to do basically what they want......
Labour are irrelevant.

So very appropriate as a reply to a rather silly post, then.
Ah yes, being patronising, the new response of choice for disappointed remoaners, now that they have lost the vote in Parliament as well as the argument.

Why do you have to resort to name-calling again? Tim Farron is taking a position not for personal benefit but because he believes in it. You think his position is wrong and you certainly have a tangible case to make. But just because he has a different view to yours doesn't make him a weasel.
TBF, some of the names that other MP's have been called, normally behind ***** etc, i think weasel is pretty tame, and actually pretty apt.
To be fair, in this context I don't think 'weasel' is name-calling. The man has openly declared his intention to subvert the result and the outcome of the referendum by any means possible, undermining if he can both the referendum and now a massive Parliamentary democratic vote to leave. Such actions can reasonably be described as weaselling, would you not say?

tim farron is a weasel though, the name is apt as he is underhand about his "position". He likes to claim another referendum is simply about voting on the terms of the deal, when it is by any other name an IN or OUT referendum.
"TIM FARRON has been hammered after he repeatedly denied his demands for a vote on a final Brexit deal was a re-run of June's referendum"

Weasel or not he is no democrat.
He voted for a referendum, he campaigned for the side that lost.............he is now voting against the outcome.
Aside from the SNP, I don't think any MPs should be voting against article 50.
The laughable thing about this situation is that many of these MPs would argue that they stand for British values, such as "democracy". The have just demonstrated the contempt they have for democracy.

weasel - 1. a small, slender carnivorous mammal related to, but smaller than, the stoat
2 .a deceitful or treacherous person. Also, see Tim Farron
The remoaners are right on one thing, though - we should be concentrating on the details. There are still important issues to be decided............
So, which date should be designated henceforth as Independence Day? The Glorious 23rd. July, the day the oppressed rose up and demanded their freedom, or 1st. February, when Parliament, in a magnificent endorsement of democracy, voted to ratify the decision of the people, or should we wait for the day (31st. March?) when our leader officially hands in the final 'Up your's Delors' Article 50 to the rump of the EU?
Perhaps we should have a poll to decide which one of the three dates should be celebrated in years to come with an official Independence Day Bank Holiday?

well if there's any sense of irony and mischief they'd invoke Article 50 on the 25th March, but alas its a Saturday this year.
