People who know they are wrong rarely admit it.
Its grown up to admit you and the other leavers have been sucked in, sold a pup and made a huge mistake.
I doubt your sort will own up through ignorance but at least tell me what is undemocratic about a 2nd referendum at the end as nobody knew this farce was going to happen.

I thought for a moment you were admitting you were wrong :lolol:.The ignorance seems to emanate from the remain side,like the stench of anti-semitism around Labour.As for a 2nd referendum,I will leave you with the defining quote from that corruptly derived,bordering on illegality, piece of propaganda sent to every household."The EU referendum is a once in a generation decision.",not you will note the first in a series till the whiners get the result they want,and sod the majority!

Hardly Bond are you!

I know people in civilian jobs that fly up to four sometimes five times a week. It's easy to rack up if you work accounts or procurement.

Anybody that has to fly that amount must be an absolute drain on their business,or department.Who can possibly need to fly that much?It is totally unjustifiable on the carbon footprint alone.

It doesn’t surprise me at all that you do not know, or mix with, any frequent flyers.

I used to know quite a few witches-there were loads in the WRNS and the WRAC!:lolol:

Five Labour MPs in the NorthEast have seen the light,and decided to represent their constituents rather than toeing the party line.
Not a single job will be lost promised Corbyn! He lied.

I think you mean five Labour MPs have decided to follow their own beliefs rather than represent what their constituents voted for.

Just another example, as if one were required, that you don't have a clue how the world works.

14 months in, 10 to go and still no sign of this "good deal" we were promised by the Leavers.

Can any Leavers tell me what the f*ck is going on?

I'm sure they will blame the stagnation of the UK economy on the weather...

If you were paying attention the vote was not to leave, the vote was a polling of the publics advice, which was marginally to leave. Now, when receiving advice from a person, or a body or people, it is sensible to take into account the knowledge and qualifications of the person or body giving the advice. Clearly, the general publics knowledge on global politics, trade, economics and I interactions is, at best, poor. Therefore, the advice it gave should be weighted appropriately and not followed blindly. That way madness lies.

The whole concept of democracy just goes in one ear and out the other with you doesn’t it. The decision to Remain or Leave was delegated by Parliament to us, My vote in the referendum was equal to the vote of everyone else, including Cox, Hawking and Attenborough. My vote, or theirs for that matter should not be weighted against the vote or the opinion of someone else no matter how much you believe it should be.

And after careful double checking, the winning vote was indeed to Leave, turns out I was paying attention after all.

Barnier and Davis agreed that talks must end in October 2018, so just 5 months away. There is a UK parliamentary recess 20 July - 05 Sep, then party conference season 14 Sep - 09 Oct.

This "deal" is not going to happen. The UK electorate have been sold a pup.

I had a look for your so called second democratic option in The Referendum Act 2015.
But couldn’t find it, perhaps you could point out the clause in that legislation that says


A referendum is to be held on whether the United Kingdom should remain a member of the European Union..
The question that is to appear on the ballot papers is—
“Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?”
In the event of Vote Remain losing, a second referendum will be held.



If you could point out that clause, it would be most helpful.Ta.

Business remainers and MPs telling us it's going to be economic meltdown. Making sure they do everything they can so that we fall in line. Telling us that they're doing it for democracy. All the while totally ignoring a democratic referendum. All they can see is there cosy gravy train thundering towards a brick wall.

Interesting that 92% of the Irish want to stay in the EU, little surprise when they see the chaos across the Irish sea. What were the Brexdreamists saying a few weeks ago?

Come on then.Give us some examples of non-aircrew jobs in this country that require flying four or five times a week.

I think you mean five Labour MPs have decided to follow their own beliefs rather than represent what their constituents voted for.

Their constituents have now realised their jobs are at stake, and contacted these MPs.
