It's always about the bus, eh? That's all the Remainers ever had. When all this was kicking off so many years ago, the Remain camp couldn't come up with any single campaign promise that resonated like the Brexit camp's simple "Let's Take Back Control" which in its brilliant non-specificity, embraced the UK's laws, taxes, immigration, security and borders with only 4 words.

Do you think MPs will get many directorship/consultancies (etc. etc.) with big business if they support leave?? Ditto.

Popular Post pedro01 Posted April 2, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2019 4 hours ago, Chomper Higgot said: 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. I support a hard Brexit, 100%. I was never conned, nor do I look down upon people with a differing opinion. There's plenty of Brexit supporters here - but it's tiresome being called racists, small minded, stupid, gullible. People come here to have discussions & when the opposition doesn't have a single valid argument and falls back on insults, it's clear there's not much to discuss. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brewsterbudgen Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 And who will be sorting out the Brexit debacle during the 6 weeks of intense electioneering ? The EU will grant a 2 year extension, so there will be plenty of time for the new government to sort it out, with a People's Vote.Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomacht8 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 All alternatives rejected. Very distasteful to reject everything but not to find a viable compromise for all. The government and parliament of the UK is unable to find a yes consensus. If the parliament and the government are unable to act, the ability to act must be restored. Either through - a new referendum or - by new elections or - a phased exit from the EU with realistic deadlines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the only democratic and justifiable thing left to do. No thanks, that's not the solution. A General election would mean to take part in elections for EU parliament. And subsequently staying in EU for at least a year. You see your way is a dead end road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
