And you have no idea how it would pan out if we withdrew article 50 and remained in the EU. You have no idea how much our position in the EU is already weakened with the other 27 member states knowing half of the UK want out, and therefore you don't know how the UK would be treated by the EU going forward. You have no idea how the rest of the world would view the UK, having seen us try to leave the EU for 3 years and being prevented from doing so by the Remain heavy HoC, and then backing down and giving up. You have no idea how the British public would respond to the referendum result not being implemented as promised, how many years of public discontent and disruption there would be as a result of half the country feeling betrayed. You have no idea how the EU project will evolve over the next few years, with most commentators recognising the direction of travel, i.e. further integration, fiscal, military, etc. etc. You have no idea how the EU economy will fare over the next few years, with massive financial problems and mass unemployment in countries like Greece, Italy, Spain, and even Germany's economy teetering on the brink of recession.

Nigel Garvie Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 6 hours ago, nontabury said: The peoples Democratic decision should be sovereign, not a parliament, occupied by a bunch of deceiving and arrogant liars. There is one word that stands out from this sad meme, which is "Servants". The person who put this together is clearly a complete failure him/her/self, if they can't understand what "Representative democracy" means. We elect MPs, and in doing so authorize them to make decisions on our behalf - Ideally with the interests of the country first, rather than their own personal interests, sadly that is far too often not the case. We effectively put them in a position to rule over us, make our laws etc, consequently to describe them as servants is beyond idiotic. Even if the referendum had been instructive (It wasn't) rather than advisory, MPs would still BE IN CONTROL OF attempts to achieve or not achieve Brexit AS THEY SAW FIT, not as "We the voters" see fit. If they find that it is impossible to do without damaging the country to an unacceptable extent then that is up to them - THAT'S what representative democracy means. We have a vote, then after that we just go back to being "Joe public". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuamRudy Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 What they get up to in their private life,is up to them. And that includes the leaders of the SNP. Unless it involved a sex crime such as rape. And by the way, when’s Alex Salmons appearing in court? In your book, does 'innocent until proven guilty' only apply to those of whose politics you approve? Regardless, Salmond is no longer a politician. It seems that many are so desperate for Brexit that they will hitch their wagons to this most reprehensible, most revolting of characters. They are happy to ignore his long track record of lies, duplicity and deceit because he promises to give them the Brexit they desire. I have some magic Brexit snake oil if you are interested.

I don't think there is much in the way of venom in my words. I have absolutely zero respect for the man but I wish him no ill will. I simply wish that he was held to the same account as most of us are, and that he fade into obscurity. Sadly I doubt either will ever happen.

Laughing Gravy Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 The anger the desperation from the political establishment and on here to do anything to stop Boris becoming PM, is quite hilarious. It would seem that those supporting this action will be crying in your pillows when he becomes PM. 2nd refy out the window. Those on here trying to say Boris is a hypocrite and liar. Yes he is likes nearly all MP's are. The remainers had 3 years with TM and did everything they could to stop the democratic referendumresult. You had your turn and now its the rise of the brexiteers.

Our contributions will increase and rebates be cancelled. EU & ECJ courts and their judgments will become supreme. All our ancient established laws & legal procedures will be changed to Eurolaw. The Euro will become the compulsory EU currency and Sterling but a memory. Taxation and VAT will be fixed in Brussels, to suit EU policies. London Stock Exchange will move to Frankfurt. Free trade will be banned with no separate trade deals or quotas allowed. Fishing controls will be made in Brussels, UK fishing grounds & quotas given to EU boats. Rights to all oil & gas will be taken by the EU (Scotland no chance) UK will be part of the Schengen Zone, with open border free for all migrants flooding in for UK to support. UK armed forces and nuclear deterrent integrated into the EU common army. UK foreign policy will be changed to the EU policy, ‘special relationships’ no more. Breakup of the Commonwealth and dependent territories cast adrift. UK existing space research and Galileo etc will all be acquired by the EUsuperstate.
