Referendum : to be in Europe or not to be ?, that is the question ! (REF)     

required field - 03 Feb 2016 10:00

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....

The court would not be overruling the referendum. They would be saying that parliament still needs to pass the result as a Bill (law). This gives parliament the option of voting it down. I hope they don't. There would not be a big enough rise in UKIP to make a difference.

There would in Labour areas in Wales and the north of England.

People already turning from Corbyn's Labour in droves and it may only need a dozen or so UKIP MP's to hold the balance of power.

Dil - 16 Aug 2016 08:35 - 4891 of 12628

Conservative areas with high immigration would probably fall to UKIP if Parliament voted down Brexit.

Fred1new - 16 Aug 2016 08:37 - 4892 of 12628

Could they fall that low?

Dil - 17 Aug 2016 06:48 - 4893 of 12628

Who , Parliament ?

Nah , Brexit will happen so the remainers should stop moaning and start getting used to the idea.

If you mean Labour and Conservative voters then we have already seen it in the Welsh Assembley elections.

Fred1new - 17 Aug 2016 08:32 - 4894 of 12628

It seems that Brexit "may" happen, but does that mean the same rules and regulation without any voice or ability to change them.

Funny, how the "exiters" could moan away about in EU for 30 years while wanting out, but the "remainers" now should not be allowed similar "rights".

One rule for some and another for others.

Germany Hints At EU 'Special Status' For UK

http://news.sky.com/story/uk-could-keep-special-status-with-eu-10540387

grannyboy - 17 Aug 2016 11:38 - 4896 of 12628

Of course the UK will get special treatment, we are too big a market for
them to get stroppy.

Fred1new - 17 Aug 2016 12:12 - 4897 of 12628

LOL

Haystack - 17 Aug 2016 12:21 - 4898 of 12628

However, I would expect us to pay some money and accept some freedom of movement. Otherwise, it will encourage some other countries to leave as well.

ExecLine - 17 Aug 2016 12:42 - 4899 of 12628

Most people would think that would be acceptable.

A 'special deal' would be a good solution. We have a lot to offer the EU, even outside of being members of it. eg. Security information and help, military help and expertise, diplomatic skills, etc, etc.

grannyboy - 17 Aug 2016 12:46 - 4900 of 12628

Well i don't think you will get the likes of Lithuania, Romania, Hungary, etc
leaving, them being reliant on the massive handouts that they receive.

And i've yet to see any exports from these mega world beating economic
powerhouses..Besides their 'skilled' car washers of course..

Ipsos/Mori poll just out

Voting intention figures show the Conservatives widening a lead over Labour to their highest since 2009. The Conservatives currently stand at 45%, compared with Labour at 34%, the Liberal Democrats at 7% and UKIP at 6%.

Fred1new - 17 Aug 2016 13:06 - 4902 of 12628

Most people.

Where do the Mosts live?

When Italy's banking system goes tits up and is not allowed to fail, that's when other countries will leave.

Gosh is Haystack having another panic attack .

Norbert Hofer will likely win the election in Austria which was fixed the first time around , i think the EU immigration experiment is coming to an end , i suppose they could all go to Fred's .

Employment figures put paid to another remoaner lie

Seems Project Fear was largely made up

Fred1new - 18 Aug 2016 10:03 - 4908 of 12628

Wait for 3months and have a look.

World valuation of UK future economy seems a little bleaker.
