Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

4748 - the hardline eurosceptics will be unhappy almost regardless of any deal that might be done, though it could be argued that the remainers should have got off their bums and voted if they wanted to win
nevertheless, while TM has to walk a tightrope, i think her endeavours to establish a consensus not only makes sense but will actually help to strike a better and properly balanced deal
as i have written before, in a strange way, the uk now has a much stronger hand than before the referendum as the eu hierarchy is terrified of the potential domino effect if uk is not somehow accommodated ........ a tricky path for both sides

You could argue that there were both remain voters and leave voters who
didn't get off their backsides and go and vote, though LEAVE voters were
more determined to vote.
But when the registration site went down with just 10 minutes before cut off
time, and then the government giving two extra days for those who left it till
the last minute to register, allowing two million extra (remain)voters , most likely
dragged out of every college/university common room that the remain side could
muster.
So If it were not for those extra two days the LEAVE margin would have been greater.

i don't run with your conspiracy theory at all, but yes, if you didn't get off your bum and you're a remainer, then don't complain at the result

Don't have to go in C. Heaven forbid. Order online. :) At Waitrose, Tennessee rye is £35/ltr.
I actually ventured into a Lidl the other day and was pleasantly surprised by some of the offers.

I'm surprised, thought support would have dwindled down to nothing since the neverendum.
Still, it's got more support than the Limp/Dims and Green Greenies put together.
And just wait till May shows her real cards...then I suspect support will come streaming back.

It means nothing at this stage, everything's in limbo at the moment.
Haystack puts those polls up just to massage his own ego.

Interesting article in FT. Liam Fix is pressing for UKIP to quit the EU Customs Union. May/Hammond not convinced yet. They want to compare benefits vs cost.

You will see the rise of UKIP if the Tories stitch the public up with Brexit light .
If May does a good honest job then there will be no need ,the jury is out ,i don't trust anyone at the moment .

Look at a picture of that little prick who killed the priest in France ,it's a shame we the public can't get hold of him .
I say bring back medieval times ,put these scum in the town centre and let the public rip them to pieces .

You would seem to be able to fit into the medieval period easily.
