What if you end up with a hung parliament? according to some political observers that is a possibility.

Great! ChangeUK and LibDems hold balance of power

Now I'm a Californian, and we vote almost anything and everything, but generally the really important stuff (not should porn stars have to wear condoms or the like...which really was a ballot question) require a supermajority of 66% to pass.

 

Last year I actually went to see David Cameron talk at the Rushmore Center here in South Dakota.

 

I asked him that question during the Q&A, as to why no supermajority, and of course it hadn't even got to where you are now, and did he bear any responsibility for the aftermath

 

His answer, even by politician standards was nonsensical. It was so bad the audience actually started laughing

But I thought you were a man of some substance..London and all that??[emoji23]

Because of Brexit I was short of change so I left him at the scene. He was still ranting when I walked off.

Lucky there are no £350m busses here or anywhere now????

It's not a 'nightmare scenario', it's what the British people voted for!

Watch the video and see for yourselves:

It's a nightmare regardless. It wasn't on the ballot paper so how can you say people voted for it? I suspect there'll be another vote  - see what they vote for then.

Torie would have very small majority..but would have to go cap in hand to the DUP, the BREXIT PARTY and UKIP.
That's a very possible scenario imo.

Most votes fell by a very slim margin. Can't believe the DUP voted against a second vote. Depressing.

"I rarely post on the matter because it will achieve little."  So no change there then.

Looking back to early Brexit threads here on TVF, dozens of Brexit supporters have seemingly evaporated     leaving only a handful of Brexiteers doggedly posting in support of their failing Brexit.

 

It’s human nature, when people get conned a small minority will double down on the con they bought into, the majority will simply stop talking about their foolish choice and hope it goes away.

 

 

Actually they have just got bored with listening  and replying to the silly remainers who keep throwing their toys out of the pram , and are just waiting to leave the E.U and let the rest of the remainers slope back off to their mums basement ,to think up more stupid ideas .

Travel..I remember filling in bit of paper in order to go to Bevidorm in late 60's re holiday travel.

Wow delusion on a HUGE scale!!
 
So your kids future lifestyle will mean being excluded from future European jobs and travel without excessive hoop jumping that they don’t have to do now ? That’s real progress.
 
Explain to me why just about every youth movement/organisation/Television youth contributor is seething we have Brexit ? Why a huge proportion of younger voters would vote to remain yet here you are telling them what’s best for them. Arrogance doesn’t come close.
 
You in your dotage know what’s best right ?

Unicorns..........That will be Hunt the Beaver, you are talking of. No surprise he's in The US, he was already discussing selling off the NHS to them when he was health secretary. The 350m on the bus for the NHS now leading the competition for lie of the century. Have you had a close look at his eyes, the guy is a 24 carat weirdo.

Arrogance..exactly why should someone with very ample life experience not be allowed to vote...or is that the way the imo fascist pro eu supporters would like it?

A general election must now be called

Oh look! The wheels are still spinning!!

 

An election will not make this go away any faster or more decisively. It's just another manifestation of kicking the can down the road. Both major parties are hopelessly riven with their own internecine strife and our elected representatives are mostly all sitting around the Westminster coffee shops, bars and restaurants playing puerile, childish conspiracy games. The erstwhile new leaders are too chickenshit to even stick their hand up let alone stick their heads above the parapet. Meanwhile a handful of them, the ones coming up with ideas and initiatives like the indicative votes, are doing all the donkey work. After last week's epic fail on the first eight indicative votes, these bloody oxygen wasters were more upset about having to come back on Monday and vote on more solution-seeking guidelines from their earnest, hard working but hopelessly outnumbered peers. There's collectively no desire from them to carry out the will of the people. That's shameful.

 

An election will not magically replace this current parliament of indolents with anything different.

Utter drivel, so no Brits worked in Europe or travelled around pre 70s??

We aren't suddenly going to be pariahs across Europe , wake up!

Money talks and if the EU tried to cut off it's nose the corporations (who have the real power) would step in

I suspect most were banned for one reason or another.

 

I was 'on the fence' prior to the referendum - but now am a leaver as if the brit. govt. is allowed to get away with ignoring the referendum result, they will be even worse in the future....

The EU. That's the con. Just not a lot have gotten around to seeing it that way. Especially the current parliamentarians who mostly see their post-Westminster 'good life' serving as a MEP under serious threat.

Yeh the remainers/lefties never seem to get banned. Constant trolling, baiting, patronising, condescending, name calling and bigotry are allowed here apparently.
