i understand the Leavers desire to exit the EU, and I respect the referendum that was held. However, if a country tries to implement the most controversial public policy decision of the last 60+ years without some kind of consensus in the nation, terrible things will happen.

"Project Fear".

 

That's the forty years of anti-EU propoganda inflicted on the UK by a few foreign (or foreign based) self-interested billionaires via their toys like the Express, Mail and Telegraph.

The only electoral fraud committed, was by Heath and his cronies, who managed to deceive me, and many millions more into voting to join the EEC in 1975, in what we were conned into beleiving was a trading union,and nothing more. And yes it did take us fourty years, to rectify a wrong, unfortunately the establishment and their blinkered and brainwashed supporters are now intent on overturning the Democratic vote of the people.

It is no good having a plan if Barnier doesn't show any interest in it and his sole objective is to make it as difficult as possible for the UK to leave. But you are correct, the remainers in government have certainly not helped, but ultimately the buck stops at Barniers door, and nobody elses.

So all we can do now is.

Plan the derail, derail the plan.????

On 1st read I honestly read this as "Ultimately the Bus stops at Barniers door" and had visions of Boris driving it (the bus) right up there (Barnier's door)...

We are all Europeans, even when Britain leaves the EU.  Something the Brexiteer masters remind of us every time they make their statements.  "We are leaving the EU, not leaving Europe."  I am sure that cheeses off a lot of Brexiteers ????

 

 I think you underestimate the feelings of many Brits. We certainly do not dislike our fellow Europeans. We are just waiting for them to smell the coffee, and follow our example. As seems to be the case already with many people in Europe.

There will never be a consensus. That's not a reason for not implementing a democratic decision. General elections never result in a consensus, but the result still get delivered - well they do in functioning democracies.

 

For democracy to work it relies on the losers accepting the decision. In this case the losers, which account for more than 80% of parliament, haven't. That's why things are in a mess. If the losers had won 52/48, the result would have been delivered a long time ago. Terrible things will happen if they are allowed to get away with this. This isn't democracy.

Think about it a little bit... ... Picture the scenario where the "Losers" (Remain) had actually won...

 

Now contemplate about what it is that they would need to deliver after winning... Nothing...

 

So you're absolutely right, the result would have been delivered a long time ago (several decades ago in fact) because there would be nothing to deliver... 

 

Obviously Remain didn't win and the problem now is there isn't a credible plan to deliver the "Winners" choice so we all find ourselves in this cluster <deleted> (NB I'm not blaming the Brexiters, I place the blame firmly on Cameron's government for not thinking it through & planning for Brexit from the moment they decided there would be a referendum, to not plan for both sides of 2-way vote is disgraceful & the fact that there were no plans needed if the result was Remain shows they didn't plan at all).

On a personal level, one of the reasons I sold my business, was the knowledge that the unelected Bureacrats in Brussels, representing big business, were intent on burdening me with even more unwarranted petty bureaucracy. As a citizen of the U.K the list is endless. Perhaps you can amuse me with why,in your opinion,we should remain shackled to this so called union,and become its colony.

The referendum was democratic and won by the Leave vote, even if you didn’t like it. No trolling there.
Where was your fraud?



Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app

The fraud is: the referendum is just a referendum and not binding anyone to actually follow it. Half of the "exit" voters only voted "just despite" because they did not believe that "they would win". Bottom line the true brexiters are less than 30% of the voters ... but the PM tries to make a brexit, hence: it is fraud.

I don’t agree with you sentiment, however I do hope that you are correct regarding the outcome.

 What you should know, is that the majority of those who support remain on this, and other Brexit threads are in fact like you, none Brits.

While those who do support our leaving this so called onion, are Brits.

Perhaps in time, you will come to realise that we have taken the correct step, and hopefully you and your likes, will soon realise that it’s in your best interest to follow us. After all that is what the unelected Bureaucrats in Brussels are afraid of.

 

 

Yeah, that is the problem with EU haters: you are simply plain stupid. I don't recognize all flags (and bluntly: I stopped at number one) Number one is Turkey ... and Turkey is not a member of the EU or any organization associated to the EU.

"We send the EU £350 a week, lets fund our NHS instead." The message simply points out an aspiration and if you can read, you knew that.

But help me out here Chomper, why do remainers deliberately misquote that message all the time?

Oh the irony :)...  it seems that some people struggle to decipher what is posted and usually offer their own interpretation of what is actually written.

 

P.S. I'm not a Remainer, Remoaner or Eumainer, I didn't get a vote & if I had, believe there wasn't enough information on the 2 choices at the time to make an informed decision so would have abstained - And before anybody says it was a simple In/Out choice, gracefully exiting with a comprehensive Trade Deal & the Irish Border issue sorted is a completely different Option than crashing out with nothing sorted. 

 

I personally think leaving the EU is going to hurt the UK, but the UK voted to leave so also believe it will hurt just as much (if not more) & for longer if we don't leave, at least in some meaningful way...  

 

UK is fractured now & I honestly cannot see how we can get ourselves back together again, short of finding a common enemy we can unite against...

You said "I personally think leaving the EU is going to hurt the UK," 

I think the EU is going to try hurt the UK for wanting to leave, and being in that kind of relationship is neither healthy for both sides.

 

"UK is fractured now & I honestly cannot see how we can get ourselves back together again, short of finding a common enemy we can unite against..."

Maybe the UK was divided before the Brexit Referendum, but it took the referendum to bring it to the light.

Barnier is a commissioner.  We vote for our local MP in the UK, the winning party gets to chose the PM and then the PM gets to propose our commissioner.  We also get to vote for an MEP, and our MEP's get to vote on the other commissioners proposed by the other heads of other member states.  So actually, Barnier can be voted out, either by Macron or should he be chosen by Macron again he could be voted out by other MEP's.

It was a lie because they did not deduct the rebate, we don't actually send the EU 350 million a week and so proposing funding the NHS from this imaginary 350 million was impossible to aspire to.

Sorry, but Barnier is not a Commissioner. The French Commissioner is Pierre Moscovici.

Quote

Sir Andrew Dilnot, Chair of the UK Statistics Authority has said today:

• Given the high level of public interest in the European Union referendum debate, it is vital that official statistics are used accurately, with important caveats and limitations explained.
• The UK Statistics Authority is disappointed to note that there continue to be suggestions that the UK contributes £350 million to the EU each week, and that this full amount could be spent elsewhere (see Annex A).
• As we have made clear, the UK’s contribution to the EU is paid after the application of the rebate. We have also pointed out that there are payments received by the UK public and private sectors that are relevant here. The continued use of a gross figure in contexts that imply it is a net figure is misleading and undermines trust in official statistics.
