[Politics] Brexit

[nicko31]

Not lies, but my memory failed me on the exact wording of the petition.

It was actually to do with a changing of the rules of the referendum, but still a pro-remain petition none the less.

Started by a leaver.

4.1 million signed a petition 2 years ago calling for a second referendum.

The numbers are to be expected. There is also a probability that both petitions have been boosted by bots.

Probably not: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-47668946

They can't face the fact there are so many true patriots that don't want our union wrecked and broken up by a bunch of ultra neo liberals

Quick clarification, are you are a fan of random polls/petitions overriding democratic votes?

It says in that very article:

Cyber-security expert Kevin Beaumont said that while it was possible that bots were involved, it would be "a bit of a pain" to build a sophisticated enough programme to cope with the email addresses.

Yes, "possible", but "probably not" boosted by bots

I thought that was different petition, but I may be wrong.

You need a unique email address and your postcode.

This is the bot checking website.

I posted a tweet a couple of pages back where someone working in Kyrgyzstan said the one vote was from him.

Votes are being checked against the postal register as I also posted a tweet showing the top ten constituencies and Brighton Pavilion (Caroline Lucas) was in third place.
False votes are being purged.

Over 16 million people voted remain but only 3 million can be bothered to sign a dodgy petition to revoke article 50 ... perhaps the other 13 million respect Uk democratic norms

Or perhaps the other 13 million support a second referendum - this petition was about revocation of course.

I voted leave and I didn’t do anything illegal? Nah, this illegal dark forces conspiracy angle simply smells like sour grapes and is just a tad being over emphasised. Besides anyone would think the Remain campaign represented the forces of light and goodness. The EU butter mountain wouldn’t melt in its mouth eh?

Yeah and the remain campaign and the liberals were investigated by the E Commission and also found guilty of breaking the rules. They were clearly very very naughty as well.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the definitive Brexit input. Surely no moment can possibly top this.

It was a leaver that proposed the petition, before the result was in.

Laura Kuenssberg

Blimey she's full of gloom and doom.

I watch with fascination at the way she portrays the Brexit situation and May in particular.

What about Sopel?

I think there's an actress somewhere in there.

 

[Weststander]

She doesn’t give the slightest impression that we’re ultimately heading to stay in the EU as before. The same with the bookies who still see that as unlikely. With that in mind, is the likely conclusion a customs union type exit? Will the other 27 nations allow that, when they want to discourage other members ever leaving?

 

[Bry Nylon]

Well, let's be honest. The current political situation in the UK is hardly the Morecambe and Wise Christmas Special, is it?

Bright n Breezy, a clear orator and he’s a cross dress under his suit.

Yes. This is what I think every time he reports.
