more like ok+DUP=YES

 

The deal with the DUP was made after the election wasn't it?

First point. News flash for you. Brexiteers already did win. You lost. Did it slip your mind?

Second point. "Long legal democratic process reuniting with the EU will begin". LOL. Pull the other one. The remain establishment has already shown that remaining in the EU comes long before concerns about democratic processes. They'll just keep slowly chipping away at it until they force on the nation their way.

Thirdly, re "Brexit thugs", it's funny how those who try to present themselves as being moral crusaders against bigotry and stereotyping, at the same time express themselves such bigoted and stereotypical views about those people who dare to not share their opinion. You really need to take a long hard look in the mirror.

We remainers do look in the mirror and we see Jo Cox staring back at us.

So why didn't you vote in 2016?

 

According to you the UK MEP's, all 73 of them were/were supporting UKIP.

 

Yet according to the UKIP 

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Independence_Party

 

The UK Independence Party (UKIP /ˈjuːkɪp/) is a Eurosceptic and right-wing populist political party in the United Kingdom. It currently has three representatives in the House of Lords and sixteen Members of the European Parliament (MEPs), making it the third-largest UK party in the European Parliament. It has four Assembly Members (AMs) in the National Assembly for Wales and two members in the London Assembly.

 

16 from 73 is about 22%. So what did the other 57 MEP do?

I have been living in the Netherlands for more than the 15 years that would have allowed me to vote,I think I may be still on the electoral roll in Peterborough where I was working last time I voted.

Am I the only one who finds May's plea to the British public to back her Brexit deal a bit bizarre?  The phone in programmes and the open letter today pleading with people to back her plan.  She has said that the people have voted for Brexit and so she is not letting them have a say again so what does she think she will achieve by all this?

 

All I can think is that she wants people to lobby their MP's but how naïve is that.  Maybe I am missing something here unless she is weighing up actually giving the people  another say?  After all she is famous for her U-turns.

She tried it at the last election "give me the majority to give you the Brexit that you voted for" or words to that effect,and the will of the people was NO!

Poor excuse for making things up.

"Staying in the EU would mean no British Army, No RAF and No  British Navy"

That may be the most stupid statement that has been posted in this thread.

That’s where the problem started. They fooled the British electorate in 1975. Don’t take my word for it. Read up on how Heath, even lied to his own M.P’s,as confirmed this very week by one of the  Conservative M.P’ who attended one of his briefing before the vote.

2016, thanks to the internet we were able to side step the establishment owed media and seek out the true facts. Unfortunately people like you are unable to question what they’ve been fed. I beleive the word is brainwashed.

Who has brainwashed me?

The truth is,Britain has indeed been humiliated. By our lying Politicians, able supported by other remainers.

Shame on them that they fooled you once.

Shame on you that they fooled you twice.

I doubt the wills are worth the effort of writing; If they were they would not be voting Brexit!

My niece voted to leave and took my 95yo mums proxy vote with her,she is suitably ashamed and embarrassed and we will make sure she only gets her own vote in the upcoming election/referendum.

re TM & non confidence within her party or in parliament

 

couple of hours ago the largest part in Norway filed/moved a non confidence motion re the current

conservative coalition government

 

(the government has been skating on thin ice since the summer holidays)

 

we'll see

the current government is very UK friendly re the future for UKers in Norway after Brexit

possible new government will not be unfriendly - but will not be ass licking

 

 

I would hazard a guess that there are more Norwegians in the UK than UKers in Norway so getting tough on them will not go down well.

right

but where are the 48? according to jrm and dd

I had to run out the room when I saw them,it was not a good look, combined age of 485 and DD looked ragged.I think they blamed the EU and remainers and something about Grouse.

Out of interest, regarding your calculations/speculations, all the young people who support the EU, do you foresee that their political opinions on this are going to remain completely static for their entire lives? That seems to be what you are counting on. It seems somewhat unlikely that a young person is not going to undergo some sort of a political shift as they get older, and that that shift might mean a change in stance on the EU, do you not think? Or is the EU just so darn awesome that there's a lifetime of loving to be had for us all?

Did you see JRM and DD the other day with four even older white males in their press conference that they called to explain where the 48 letters were? I get what you mean "if you are not a communist at 18 there is something wrong with you and if you still a communist at 28 there is something wrong with you" but they won't have the EU to blame for all the ills that plague England! as they age.It's a hard one to call but I think remain will prevail.

I go to the beach for a couple of hours every day on my annual two month visit in jomtien,as I like to walk I use the malls to cool down just do a bit of window shopping and a troll round the supermarket and back out again.Do they have a Muji in the new terminal 21?

I do not want to appear to be being facetious, but why would you go to a shopping centre on a daily basis? And what do you do whilst you are there?

When I stay in Bangkok I always stay between Asoke and Nana and do most of my eating in the food court in 21,if I was staying anywhere near the one in pattaya I would probably visit it at least once a day to eat and get a coffee.

The Genie is out of the bottle and growing I doubt they can control the following on the right its just too big and lots of ingrained hatred. Or the left with their violent poster children in Black ANTIFA, politics is polarised between brave true Brexeteers and sneaky unpatriotic remainers in the left.

someone on here yesterday was looking forward to the weaker pound as it would start an export led recovery after brexit ???? export what we dont make anything anymore and will be making even less once the BIG 4 car makers relocate, we certainly cannot compete with china/india etc,but we will have the most skilled tatty pickers in the world tho????

The other elephant in the room is productivity! lowest in Europe more or less,not forgetting the average worker personified by David Davis once described as "lazy as f..k and thick as mince".

Did that person also make the point that in the UK you can denounce the government without fear whereas in North Korea such behaviour will get you executed. Maybe the UK government should align with North Korea the the way it treats critics?

 

And as for the conditions faced by a white European in Thailand, are you suggesting that a non-white European would be treated differently? Or is it your belief that only white people can be Europeans? Either way, congratulations on revealing your racism. 

Duh!

Imports from the rest of the world would still have to pass the U.K's stringent rules. there would be no need to relax our controls. The same rules would also apply to imports from tne E.U.

The main difference,is that we could help underdeveloped countries such as those in Africa, sell their products to us at a lower rate,then those imposed by the Bureaucrats in Brussels. 

A bonfire of the regulations we wos told leading up to the referendum,now it's about keeping all the hated EU regulations,now you say they are UK stringent rules! Who is telling porkies here.

They need to be a little careful, given their own 'Gibraltar', Ceuta. What is good for one is good for the other....

Once or if the UK exit the EU there will be nothing to stop the Spanish just walking in,Gib is not an island or they could just brick up the border.Ceuta and the other enclave are in Africa.

Please explain how Farage was in a position to give another referendum, he wasn't. What part of that don't you understand.

 

Part of Cameron's reason to have the referendum was because of the fear that the Tory party was losing supporters to UKIP and it seems like it's starting to happen again.Nigel returns on his white charger to be head of UKIP again and rescue Brexit from the second referendum that is surely coming.

No I cannot really see that, please explain how he will do it.
