We’ll see The only difference going forward will be that we have no representation in MEPs or leaders meetings . Everything else will be the same ,single market , free movement etc . Mind the no representation might be a good thing to keep the muppet Farage away . Let him spend more time with his EU loving family and pension
Theoretically all those things should be different. The only way we'd still have things like the single market or free movement would be if Brexit had been reversed (the final nail in our democracy's coffin) or we had agreed a deal with the EU that was leave in name only and changed nothing material (the penultimate nail). The irony of the remainers' approach ever since the referendum vote is that it has made it inevitable that Farage (and/or many others who very much share his views) will end up with a far more prominent role in UK politics.
They don't. All they are hearing is the continuation of Project Fear, aided and abetted by the sheer incompetence/treachery (delete as applicable) of May and her team. In fact May and her toadies are seeking to bounce Brexiteers into supporting her deal despite it clearly being a trap (prepared by the EU) and a betrayal of the Brexit vote. Make a note of those in parliament who vote against it for those reasons, as they are in effect the only MPs that will be worth voting for at the next election.
Plenty of you in this thread, so may I ask those who voted 'leave' to state their reasons why, and explain why leaving will improve things. Feel free to go into real detail. Cheers.
Rather than revisiting an argument already held and won three years ago, probably easiest to refer you to links like the one below - https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/06/22/20-reasons-you-should-vote-to-leave-the-european-union/
Potentially both sides, potentially neither, and we might well ask where the (taxpayer funded) £9 million leaflet campaign to every UK household sits in terms of any overspend allegations. However what seems clear is that the remainer-dominated board of the electoral commission have, since the referendum, been trying to find ways to punish the leave campaign only, presumably for largely spiteful ideological reasons. None of the above makes any difference to the outcome of the referendum, or invalidates it in any way.
Deary me, this was one of the unsuccessful remainer arguments three years ago - 'If you vote to leave it's because you're a moron/racist etc'. Your continued use of the same condescending and probably ill-informed bullcr@p ensures that if there is another referendum, leave will win by a far greater margin. I've yet to hear any remainer explain any significant benefits of staying in the EU.
Not so many round South Yorkshire though. Lib Dems and Britain Stronger in Europe were both fined....not a lot of people seem to know that.
I haven't time to to go into real detail . But to put it in a nutshell the EU will be a federacy, to be fair to many European leaders they have never hidden that as a goal...more Europe is the mantra..Tony Benn warned us 40 odd years ago, at that time I thought he was exaggerrating, the British establishment denied it (Ted Heath in particular) ....turns out the old bugger Wedgie was correct. That gives us little control, or at least independent decision over events, particularly as veto's will soon be an 'outdated concept' ...majority voting will be the norm... If that is what you want for the UK, just a 1 in 27 voice, no matter how important the issue may be to us (by the same token I have no wish to have an influence on what may be a vital issue to other countries).... that is fine, that is your choice and I have no problem with that. However democracy in my view is best conducted at a local level, as local as is possible. More Europe and remote decision making is not what I want for my Grandkids.
Still not going well in South Yorkshire though Marlon, 15-16% in Brighton, Kensington, big cities...those clever University town's et al....1.69-2.51% with us mate.
A bad loser? You make it sound like a game of snap between kids. This is the most important decision to affect our country in decades and it was made by an electorate that was ill informed and ill equipped. If wanting to protect my country from economic crisis is being a bad loser then fine. You take the moral high ground and wave your Union Jack. No one will much care though because leaving the EU is a huge step to making us irrelevant. Nevertheless we can go it alone and make our own laws which, unless we depart from reason, will be much the same ones as made in Europe. Still, no more muslims eh? As for the petition being easy to hack. It actually isn't but stick to your fake news/conspiracy theory if you like.
