[Politics] Brexit

[Kalimantan Gull]

South East tells brightonians imbecilles to stick their remain!

Although remain parties got more votes than brexit parties in the south east, fairly obviously so

I think clamp that I will concede a certain point. The mass of European peoples have to be co-operative. That however should not take central, ultimate defense or economic powers away from the nation state.[/QUOTE

I think we’ll see the end of nation states soon enough. Britain exists in name only and you could argue similarly for each divided kingdom. Much that once glued us together in a common way has largely dissolved including the church, monarchy, class, political parties and even language; instead it’s replaced by a new era of multiculturism that’s still taking shape. Exciting yet terrifying IMO.

Feck off chump!

Christ on a bike, I have asked a question. I have asked a question about MEP pensions that I didn't know the answer to and I get your informed reply.

Think I will leave this.

In terms of the results so far in the South East, it is as follows:

3 Seats: Brexit Party & Lib Dems
2 Seats: Green
1 Seat: Cons & Labour

Giving pro EU 5 seats, Brexit 3 and 2 for can't make their minds up. - Big shift from the initial referendum results.

Actual results:

4 seats for Brexit party and 1 for conservative Daniel Hannan, that's 5 Brexit seats.

3 LibDem and 1 Green, that's 4 pro-EU seats. Not such a change from the initial referendum results after all.

(1 Labour seat but who knows what they are for)

 

[The Rivet]

So you should!

You as I and everyone else has use of something called the 'internet'. Use it, research opposing views as well as your own. Jeez, I don't always want to be a teacher.

whats changed? Conservative and Labour had a woeful night. but the Brexit position isnt actually stronger is it, have they won net more seats? maybe a couple. remain support has won a clear number, at cost of Conservative and Labour. i think the "popular vote" count is swinging to remain, confirming what we knew.

 

[nwgull]

I’m going to bed, but at this stage we have the 2 clear Brexit parties with 34% of the popular vote combined, and the 3 unambiguously remain parties also with 34% of the popular vote combined. And that doesn’t include another 4-5% from PC and the SNP.

Assuming these percentages don’t change much, I bet this will still be spun as a mandate for no-deal or hard Brexit.

 

[Blackadder]

Someone is arguing with himself. He needs to consult the internet.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

As a remainer I’ve now given up all together. Doesn’t matter a jot adding all these votes from pro this that or whatever. This shows one party who’s only mandate was leave NOW. They have won hands down.

I give up

Sorry love it if that’s true but that’s grasping. The UK is as divided as before

South East tells brightonians imbecilles to stick their remain!

How so?

 

[The Rivet]

How so?

Hello.

 

[Dick Head]

I'm glad Alexandra Phillips won a seat.

32% of people voted for them; 68% didn’t.

 

[GrizzlingGammon]

Nor do you!

That's why he asked the question? You are not very bright.

You are a remainer democracy denier I see. Lol. Carry on muppet.

Thanks someone got my point. He even quoted himself in an argument.

 

[The Rivet]

68% did they bother to vote, you deciding to combine the remain vote? Oh dear
