[Politics] Brexit

[Lever]

Bloomberg are reporting it based on an IPSOS exit poll, so it seems legit. Whether the broadcaster NOS should have broadcast it on Thursday night is another matter.

Good result.... bad that we find out today!

Unfortunately I think that racism’s Brexit party will do well as Farage has been convincing all the dumbos that this vote decides Brexit. A lie he is peddling to keep taking money from the EU. Your money.

The photo of the old man with milkshake over him is looking more fake as well.

Too late of course, damage done

The 'No exit polls' law is a UK Law, and not an EU Law - so not applicable in the Netherlands.

Absolutely. Nowhere other than on this thread does anyone suggest it is an EU-wide thing.

 

[Trufflehound]

Far right is being trounced in The Netherlands so im led to believe.

Not quite trounced sadly. Besides Wilders there is another bunch of nutjobs on the scene misleadingly called Forum for Democracy (FvD) and they (or so the exit polls suggest) have taken most of Wilders's votes.

A slight sweeping generalisation. I voted Brexit Party, not because I thought it would decide Brexit or indeed deliver Brexit directly, but instead to give the Tories and Labour a reminder they need to take their fingers out their backsides and start delivering. In theory, if they deliver Brexit then the Brexit Party disappears and is no longer a threat to either of them ..... their choice.

The milkshake that looked more like strawberry yoghurt with bits of fruit in it, no splashes on the pavement nor on his shoes. Oh, and the spare shirt as well.

You mean apart from the Telegraph ?

"No - the rest of the EU will be voting over the next few days. It is a criminal offence for any country in the EU to publish exit polls, or any information about how people have voted during the election, before 22:00 BST on Sunday 26 May. "

Or indeed the Express.

So, what good comes from Brexit.

Self determination.

Where there is discord, may we bring harmony.
Where there is error, may we bring truth.
Where there is doubt, may we bring faith.
And where there is despair, may we bring hope.

Bringing up the Grenfell Tower tragedy was particularly nauseating given her actions in the immediate aftermath
