It is you and your ilk that is ignoring the opinion of the British voting public, we voted out.

A vote based on lies wholly dependant upon those gullible enough to believe them.  If the cap fits !!

Why should there be a second vote, we havn't acted on the first one yet. Lets be clear about this, the only people that are protesting are sore losers who cannot accept the peoples vote we had 2 years ago.

Fortunately you and me and possibly many others on this forum won't be around as it is the next several  generations of British people who will learn that they are the real losers.  Due to the folly of this current generation who were mislead, misguided or just downright stupid to vote for Brexit.

Didn't he start groundless invasions of foreign countries twice?

Also good old Dr Beeching who demonstrated the vision of a mole! in pursuit of national railway 'profitability'!

Now its far clearer than b4 what is at stake I hope the Brits have an other vote. I can understand the leavers not wanting this as they probably won't win again. Otherwise why worry. 

you really don't understand what the vote was about and you are listening to the remoan hyperbol, the people who voted to leave don't like the direction the EU is going, we want our country and sovereignty back, it is not about money (although it does help) - it is about the Brussels/German power Grab over the last 25 years which we never signed up for, it was fine as a trading partnership - that is far from what it is today and going forward it just gets worse

 

No Thanks

And people still think they are living in a democracy - watch while the real powers that be totally usurp the will of the people.

[473geo]

Let brexit happen, in years to come there will be many books published as to why voters moved to leave europe

Let us show a bit of spirit, individuality, judging by the amount of people wishing to live on this tiny island the UK must be getting something right.

Otherwise would the worlds migration not be to the wide open spaces of the USA and Australia?

I also took to the streets yesterday looking for a 75p pound I lost????

you can blame Thailand for that one, the Brexit uncertainty is responsible for about a revolving 5% of the drop from 54 to 43 - the other 15% odd percent is down to the Thai BAHT strengthening against "ALL" mainstream currencies, if the Brexit vote never happened we would be looking at about 47/48 to the pound

Just a thought. Let's say, for whatever reason, Brexit does not happen next year.  Do you think the pound would recover to 47/48 ? My bet would be 45 at the most, not just due to the Baht's current strength,  but due to the fact confidence in UK's policies and long term plans would be undermined , irrespective of whether you are a Remainer or Brexiteer.

I see the turnabout remainers as gullible people fearing an economic crash rather than looking for the benefits of 'self rule'

[smedly]

If anybody wants to understand why the UK voted to leave and if they want to understand exactly what the EU is - watch this YouTube video  "The real face of the European Union"

Superb turnout; makes me proud and, more importantly, means we are one step closer to overturning this ill-considered and dangerous decision.  Let the people decide!

not really on topic although I do believe that once the UK leaves and we see some stability and the manipulation stops I think 47/48 is about right and in the long term as the UK economy grows untethered by the EU we could possibly see 50 IMO

 

But sort of off topic

So how do you explain that since January 1st 2016 the GBP has lost more than 20% against the THB, while in the same period the EUR has only lost 5%?

Expect the pound to drift down to the high thirties early next year.

This was made in 2005, I think. It's one of the things I watched when the referendum was first announced. I waited a long time for any serious challenge to the content of it as I was (believe it or not) far more open-minded then. I'm still waiting. If anyone can challenge anything in it, then now would be a good time.

 

I think the critical moment concerns the sovereignty issues and constitutional legality of joining the EEC in the first place (from 22:16).

Rubbish, you havn't a clue what will happen, it what the country has decided to leave, but to a lot of people it seems it is all about the remainers, accept democracy.

They did listen to public opinion ,it was to leave , so whats the problem?

The problem is that public opinion may have changed, now the issues are better understood and the leavers' lies have been revealed.

Thought they had decided? it was NEVER a "dangerous decision" 

I look at this as a "Losers Protest" ???? 

Sponsored by? ????

Rubbish to you! Nothing was decided: the referendum was advisory. What's undemocratic about seeing whether people have second thoughts?

They should just do a second vote to be done with it. Now that people fully realize everything they can make a far better choice as first time. So just vote again and accept whatever it says. 

 

 

The people that voted the first time knew exactly what they were voting for, the primary purpose was to RETURN ALL legislative powers to the duly elected members of the British Parliament, to be able to determine, an immigration policy that benefitted the UK,  trading deals that benefitted the UK, a foreign policy  that benefitted the UK and to remove the power of the unelected dictatorial cabal that determines policy in Europe over our Sovereign Nation. And we won, by a considerable majority. In elections in the UK the rule is the majority wins, and unless there is proven malpractice the result stands. If you do not vote then you cannot complain. Just because the losers cannot accept the result does not warrant a revisit to the referendum result. The problem is because the party in power was manipulated to replace cowardly Camoron with a totally incompetent appeasing person who supported remaining in Europe. If they had elected a person who was willing to follow the 'leave the eu'  instruction of the voters and implemented  article 50 on day 1 of their tenure, then this situation would not exist and the UK would now be out of the EU. 

[chezy86]

Why didn’t the EU listen when David Cameron went to them for a better deal?. I don’t believe the unelected bureaucrats of Brussels believed the British people would vote out at a referendum. Now look what a mess we are in. But a democratic system is what we have and the vote was out so out it is despite any protests. Anyway I didn’t win the Thai lottery last week but I ain’t protesting for them to run it again because I’m not happy. Same same.

No. I'm talking about the 28% who couldn't be bothered voting back in 2016. A mate said he didn't vote, but now he's whinging like shit about Brexit. "Why didn't ya vote?" "Well, I never thought the leavers would win."

 

But they did. That ship has sailed. You're not getting another bite at the cherry. You have to accept the consequences whether you like them or not. How many of these protesters didn't vote in 2016 and are now whinging?

 

And how many referendums do you want? How about best out of 3? This may sound hard and unforgiving but life can be like that.

Quite possible, unfortunately. Sentiment often has a huge and irrational effect. Just look at the US equity markets.
