[Politics] Brexit

[Mellotron]

Being a liberal bunch most on here you'd love us to stay but we will leave 100%

This isn’t about what you want to happen. It’s what you think will happen.

 

[dingodan]

You might as well just have asked if people want to leave or not, because that's how they will vote in this poll.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Just been for some sushi, anything happen whilst I was away?

 

[dingodan]

'Think' is a pretty exaggerated word to describe what it is you do.

I do actually think.

For example, right now, I'm thinking what a prick you are.

See.

Well the ERG and their mates have just stopped Brexit. I think this must mean they are undemocratic loons

 

[Westdene Seagull]

They are a spoof account. Take a look at their previous comments.

How's your global FoM coming along Plooks ? I assume you'll have it in place before the 29th March to stop leavers laughing when you lose your EU FoM ?

 

[ManOfSussex]

That 'utter plethora of legislation' isn't required before we fallout by default ..... it's desirable. Not having it doesn't prevent us leaving.

So where is this majority coming from for 'Extension of A50/Extension of membership/revoking A50' ?

It's desirable? It's actually all legally required, on top of everything else to function, if we want to fall out and off the cliff edge you so desire by default.

The Extension of A50/Extension of membership/revoking A50/whatever you want to call it etc will come from the same place to buy time to prevent no deal on March 29 - the majority in parliament, not the Tory toffs who say 'managed no deal' or whatever the buzz phrase this week is.

Strangely that doesn’t seem to worry me. Anyway, it’s too upsetting to sit on here witnessing the collective realisation and subsequent breakdown of people’s Brexit bubble bursting.

No, just another normal day for Theresa May.

2016 was the only referendum we have ever had on the European Union



You have zero statistical analysis which tells you ALL in their 90`s are pro EU. Did twitter tell you?

But good old Churchill though, wanted a peaceful European organisation but wished to not be a part of it, merely an outsider looking in as a friend. He would have voted to Leave too if he had seen what his vision had morphed into by 2016

“In all this urgent work, France and Germany must take the lead together.Great Britain, the British Commonwealth of Nations, mighty America, and I trust Soviet Russia - for then indeed all would be well - must be the friends and sponsors of the new Europe and must champion its right to live and shine.”

“We see nothing but good and hope in a richer, freer, more contented European commonalty. But we have our own dream and our own task. We are with Europe, but not of it. We are linked, but not comprised. We are interested and associated, but not absorbed.”

“It is only when plans for uniting Europe take a federal form that we ourselves cannot take part, because we cannot subordinate ourselves or the control of British policy to federal authorities”



Parliament gave us....sorry "inflicted" the Referendum. 544-53

AYES

Tory 320
Labour 206
Green 1
Independent 1
DUP 6
UKIP 1
Ulster Unionist 2
Lib Dem 7

NOES

SNP 53



Frankly its ludicrous to suggest in 1975 the general public had easy access to the treaty of Rome or even full parliamentary debates, it was not a 24hr news or click the mouse culture in 1975.
The Rome Treaty is irrelevant too, the vote was on the EU institution as it stood in 2016 not a vote on a different set up from 1957 or 1975
However….people were reliant on media and pamphlets.
One pamphlet even said English Common Law would NOT be affected by remaining in…..that was rather a large porky.
How many voters were informed in 1975 the European Communities would morph into the European Union in 1992
How many voters knew more powers would be lost by national parliaments and handed to EU with the Lisbon Treaty 2007
How many voters were informed that minus net migration in 1975 would change into inward European migration of 269,000 by 2015
How many voters knew in 1975 that membership of 9 would expand to East Germany,Greece.Spain,Portugal,Finland,Sweden,Austria,Slovenia,Czech R,Lithuania,Estonia,Latvia,Slovakia,Poland,Hungary,Malta,Cyprus,Bulgaria,Rumania,Croatia.

You should leave this thread ,you are talking to much sense !

Not if they've read the question. The outcome I think is most likely is opposite to the outcome that I want to happen. The OP, (I think) is trying to set up a purely predictions thread.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Yes.

 

[pastafarian]

2.5 years ago there was supposedly a plethora of "options". Which was half the problem. Brexit has never been a binary issue, something you have all failed to grasp.
But don't worry yourself about it Pasta, you've been ****ed for years. Or maybe you haven't, hence the porn addiction

There were only ever "two ways you can Leave"........with a deal or without a deal, i think its cute you think these "two ways you can Leave" have now been reduced to "two ways you can Leave".......with or without a deal.
Clown school must be in recess.

It's desirable? It's actually all legally required, on top of everything else to function, if we want to fall out and off the cliff edge you so desire by default.

Please point me to the clauses in the European Union (Withdrawl) Act 2018 that require all these extra instruments to be in place and indeed prevent leaving if they are not ?

 

[Mackenzie]

Yes.

Democracy.

 

[LamieRobertson]

That'll be novel ...

 

[Billy the Fish]

It won't happen. They'll kick the can down the road until there's a change of government, who will then cancel it. That is my prediction.

 

[Westdene Seagull]

How is that ICE AGE? You are just a spoof account clowning about.

Got on the housing ladder yet or are you still blaming old people for your own failures ?

 

[Bold Seagull]

Yes.

Democracy.

It's all democracy!

 

[Knocky's Nose]

I wonder if the Great British public will actually get to the point where they're so sick of pontificating that they'll accept whatever happens, just as long as something happens....
