"Let us be heard"

You WERE heard in the referendum and you lost.

“Whether you want to leave the EU or to stay in, the only way to unlock the Brexit process in parliament, the only way to secure a stable majority in Parliament, the only way to legitimise the outcome so we can build a lasting settlement in the country is to give the people the final say,”

They had their final say three years ago. How many final says do you want?

Lived there for three years, never again. Bureaucracy worse than Thailand, most govt servants little Hitlers. Almost impossible to get replies to important phone calls/letters. People mainly stubborn and bossy, although I did meet a few nice people. Expensive, except for housing. Where I was in Haute Vienne, freezing in winter and heating very expensive. Boring and expensive bars. Unattractive and poorly dressed women who you didn't see unchaperoned of an evening anyway, and hardly ever use the bars. The one thing I did enjoy was the peacefulness of my surrounding area, the quiet roads and the hot dry summers. Moving to Thailand was like being let out of jail. Took me ten years to sell my property there at a fraction of what I paid for it. 

Depends on whether or not you're gay, but I wouldn't regard #8 as a plus. Also, you are surely joking when you say that it's quiet. It was 10 years back, but not anymore. I had to sell my condo on Jomtien Beach Road because of the constant wall-shaking bass-heavy "music" from the pickups parked next to the beach. You just couldn't escape it. The beach and sea is just as polluted as Pattaya and the traffic is a problem. Parts of it flood in the wet. I'm afraid Jomtien is now just a little Pattaya and I wouldn't live there again if you paid me. I live near Ban Amphur, which is better but with the rapid Pattaya expansion, it's starting to get noisy and crowded out this way too, especially on weekends. In the not too distant future, Pattaya and Sattahip will be one big city.

On the railway road in Pattaya I slow down for all the unsigned roads crossing the dual carriageway because I've seen a few accidents on these intersections. However, every time I reduce speed for them, several cars usually flash past me at high speed. Children in adult bodies.

The Russians wouldn't know the truth if they tripped over it in the street. Watch the series Chernobyl to see how they lied when half the world was in danger of radiation poisoning. Awful race of people.

Good - Johnson will face a vote of No Confidence when he eventually wins - he will then face a parliamentary vote of no confidence, lose an election the Brexit party will kill the Tories and let Corbyn in. They will then be a second referendum when we stay in - you Brexiteers have opened the gates of hell - the pound will get to that 27 baht well before 2023 - well done, keep up the wrecking work on behalf of your Eton-toff puppet-masters.  Taking back control my arrsss.....

Last I heard it was the remainers causing all the problems. There has been no Brexit therefore I don't see how you can blame the people who voted for it. All we have now is indecision and chaos, something the forex markets hate, hence the falling pound. You see, this is why we have democracy, when people can't agree on something, it has to be done by a vote. As long as everyone abides by the result, even if they don't like it, democracy works. When people do what the losers (remainers) are doing by fighting against the result, then chaos ensues.

Never mind negotiating a great deal with tramp after brexit. By the time you guys acomplish brexit not only he will not be president he might not even be alive.  

Tell that to the remainers holding us up and causing the pound to bomb, not the 17.4 million Brits who chose to exit.

I'd say your opinion here is stretching the definition of non-violent disobedience.

So that's one poster on here wouldn't mind seeing a passenger jet brought down as long as it makes a point for the lefties. These people don't give a fig about climate change etc, it's all about making a political point for the left.

Don't expect sympathy from the rose-coloured specs brigade and the junta fans on here because you won't get it. I thought your mother was treated abominably, but I wasn't surprised by TI's attitude. Good luck to your mum in the Philippines and put the keyboard warriors on "ignore", it'll make this forum a pleasanter place to visit and you won't have to wade through the rubbish to get to the meat.

They haven't delivered on the result of the first one yet, why have another? For democracy to work, you have to abide by the wishes of the people, once you ignore the people's vote, then democracy breaks down. Win or lose, in a democracy, you have to accept the vote. Aren't us British supposed to be good losers? As far as remainers are concerned, that's gone out of the window. If Corbyn's Labour get there way and there's a second referendum, then a precedent will have been set and the next thing you know people will be demanding reruns of general elections for no other reason than their side having lost.

One of the benefits of diversity, a large increase in the crime figures. Tourists are bound to be affected by it. Couple that with the female dominated govt being soft on crime and you have your explanation.
