Breaking the deadlock over Brexit: Is Britain heading for a general election?

Featured Replies

Just now, doctormann said:

Barroso was not talking about voting in the UK so the quote is taken out of context in that respect.  The wording is still quite apt to the current situation with May's rejected deal though.

May’s deal was rejected by UK’s parliament and voting on it again was a decision of the UK’s government, same as the request for an extension for it. Nothing the EU had to do with. 

 

Just pointing that out because, in fact, there are quite some Brexiteers who don’t understand that general elections and referendums are being carried out by the member states alone and the EU doesn’t have any say in it.

    The crap heap that the spineless May and her muffins have created is nothing compared to what red Jeremy would do. Re-nationalize, submit to the EU will, tax, tax, and more tax on business and private

Are you British?
Are you a non British eu citizen from one of the eu subsidy junkie countries who's rather cheesed off 'cos your gravy train is soon to be losing a BIG FINANCIAL ASSET???

Let’s put it this way: it’s a great country that’s been infested by fools and demagogues since three years.

Yeah, keep all the undesirables on the continent! When they start killing one another off we won't stop them this time!

The problem with that is who do you think is likely to replace all those you envisage being kicked out?

 

And imagine the chaos with a Corbyn led minority government relying on the SNP propping them up!

Yes let's stick with the chaos of a May led minority government relying on the DUP propping them up????

I have no great love for the traitor May,who is trying to sell us down the river to her masters in the EU,but the nightmare scenario of Corbyn leading the country over the cliff to economic destruction and the thought of someone like Abbott on the world stage is the thing nightmares are made of.

Did you know Corbyn had an affair with Abbott? Seemingly just as his first marriage was or was about to break up. 

 

Says it all!!

Or we will get MPs who actually support brexit. Forget Corbyn.

Yeah, he'd be fantastic. Just what we need to create another socialist paradise like Venezuela or Zimbabwe.

Considering the closeness of the Brexit result and allowing for possible changes in thought; and noting May's last GE failure when she chose to campaign only on Brexit, are you seriously suggesting only Brexit supporting people would be elected??

Then the EU could make the decision to kick out all the sponging lazy members who think it's good to spend other countries money on themselves - au revoir la France!

The Brits voted to leave and got 2 years to prepare for that...now it's time to go! All the extra time they need should be on their conto so we can all go on with our own future and lives. Just kick them out and if they wanna come back present them the bill for wasted time and energy.

in year 2019, the whole idea of brexit is simply insane!

Law professor from Durham University, my alma mater, on Brexit. Long talk with one bloke from three blokes in a pub. Worth listening to!

Why are the poor always so hung up about cash that they miss the big picture? 39 billion is just not relevant. A 1,000 billion in assets have already walked of elsewhere in the EU.

 

EU GDP is around 10,000 billion! 

 

BTW, per capita income in the Irish Republic is 5th highest in the world! I think reunification is on the way. It will be much the same as German reunification, Eire will help their poor NI brothers!

Too long for you Vogie? Too many long words? You react that my post is sad within 5 minutes? The discussion lasts an hour! I recommend that you listen to others; you may learn something (I won't bet on it).

No not too long, but your recommendations of other videos vis a vis 3 men in a pub and the Yorkshireman that looks like he is doiting has done nothing to enthuse me to your reconmendations, but thanks for heads up anyway.

And well done, you just couldn't resist adding a sarcastic remark at the end, could you, how could anyone learn anything when you appear to have a monopoly on knowledge.????

That Brexit means Brexit and that the UK will leave the EU on 29 March? And that it will be the easiest deal in history? That you will have all the 40 trade agreements replicated by then? And that you will get 350 million per week for the NHS? And, of course, that there will continue to be free trade and access to the single market?

Don’t be too tough on the Brexiteers, they’re still nursing their ‘Out Meant Out’ celebration party hangovers.
