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....

what part of the word LEAVE do they not understand.

The pain.

Some are just catching up!

an awful lot of you guys seem to have very simple and simplistic minds

Who are you referring to cynic you super brain ?

i am certainly no super brain nor have ever pretended to be such
however, even the most militant of trades unions know full well that compromise is required in any negotiation
the ideal is when both parties end up unhappy

I can't see who was being simplistic this morning ,except Fred posting his cartoons ,i think everyone is well aware of the deal ahead and it won't be easy ,however like others who voted out i believe any knocks will be worth it in the long run .

what no one knows, and i certainly cannot begin to comprehend let alone unravel the complexities, is quite what the end result with the eurozone will be

indeed, how much of the puzzle will have been solved even by 2020 is hard to predict

What do the remainers not understand about the referendum vote ?

17 million voted out knowing full well that they would have no further say on exit strategy and this would be handled by the government.

End of story get over it. Remainers beginning to sound like that moaning Scottish cow with all their bleating on about how thick the people who didn't vote their way must be.

Dil.

The price of getting out.

The Brexiters are reacting like a bunch of unruly irrational school children demanding new toys, but no idea what they will cost or who will pay for them.

Many have been deceived by the false propaganda leading up the referendum vote or are little englanders.

-====--

Also, I wonder what the bill will be and who will be expected to pay it.

Fred thinks everyone's thick who voted out ,your just like all the politicians that you despise :)

Little Englanders ,you left wing twat .

I am glad to know Dumbo has the ability to read my mind and tell me what my opinions are and what I think.

It is must feel safe and secure with a definite opinion and "belief" of the world and what should be done.

not all brexiters fred, any more than all remainers think there should be another referendum

"out" won the day whether one likes it or not
whether that would have been the case had corbyn properly and wholeheartedly put his weight - and thus by definition the labour party's - behind the "remain" campaign, will also never be known

the actuality of the situation now needs to be dealt with, though i accept it will be a long and tortuous and painful path
for sure the rabid brexiters will not get (anything like) all they want, and nor of course will the remainers

Deception was rife from both camps Fred not just the Brexiteers (not a spelling error)

We know what your opinions are Fred ,you rage on here every day.

The legislation for the referendum was framed poorly. Firstly, there should have been a minimum turnout and margin to ensure the result was acceptable.

The more major point is that the referendum was created as advisory and not mandatory. That has left open the possibility of legal challenges and Parliament expecting a vote on the matter.

What bollox you talk Haystack.

Had the vote gone the "right" way, it would have been hailed as a historic achievement and there would have been no talk of another vote for any reason.


The €uro's in their arrogance buggered it up, along with Call Me and fellow travellers like yourself.

sturgeon throwing down the gauntlet to TM ......

Scotland’s first minister Nicola Sturgeon will next week publish a draft bill that could potentially pave the way for a second independence referendum in Scotland, claiming that voters north of the border should be able to reconsider their position before the UK leaves the EU.
In a speech on Thursday, Mrs Sturgeon issued a warning to Theresa May, the UK prime minister, that it is “high time” she respected the 62 per cent of Scottish voters who opposed leaving the EU, warning that the SNP MPs in Westminster will vote against the Brexit bill when it comes before the House of Commons next year.

hays - i'm sure the turnout was at least as great as for a GE, and i don't think either that or a minimum majority has ever been part of the uk's political system .....

for better or worse, it has always been "first past the post" and if you don't vote, then you just have to go along with the result

Which "matter" are the losers in Parliament expecting a vote Hays?
Max is quite right, if the vote had gone the other way, there would have been no argument about the result. When I see the scowling faces of Soubry and Thornberry, I know we did the right thing. Thornberry I can forgive because she was born stupid, while Soubry is a vicious haridan.
