"After almost 50 years of failure to reform, were we to stay, what would you recommend British MEP's (10% of the EU Parliament) do and what would you prioritise and how long would you give them to change?" I did not get one answer to this question (I will leave you to guess why) but, you, having agreed tacitly the EU is not without it's problems I am sure you will be very forthcoming in your reply to it.

Strange that on a forum designed for debate you want to play "one way traffic" Happy to prod but not to be prodded My question was what can MEP's do to change it. Finally you agree theirs nothing MEP's can do within their remit to effect reform. You only have to look at voting patterns to see what a success they have been. One of my reasons for leaving. What are your reasons for staying? You now seem to be saying the EU is not ideal but don't feel a need to explain your reasons.

The polls already show that a no deal Brexit is massively unpopular with both Parliament and the electorate, so remain it is. Who did you say the loser was? If we did leave with no deal, it wouldn't just be the Brexiteers that were losers, virtually every British citizen would be a loser, Brexiteers and remainers alike.

Let me get this straight, discontented Europeans had something to do with the referendum and the referendum has no relationship to Boris Johnson or his policies.

If we did leave with no deal, it wouldn't just be the Brexiteers that were losers, virtually every British citizen would be a loser, Brexiteers and remainers alike. Most of this is, naturally enough, bluster, conjecture, obtuse predictions of the future and projection of your own wishes. The very manner in which you try to repudiate me , to me, highlights your petulence and my sentiments perfectly. I do agree that the whole debacle has been shambolic (unnecessarily so of course), and I'm still unsure as to whether it'll end as planned / promised. I don't particularly want to see Boris Johnson as PM for very long (if at all), but the only thing that matters is that we actually do leave as per the wishes of the majority. If he is the only one ABLE to carry this out at this point, then so be it. Once out we need to get our own house in order, and drain the swamp that has become British politics, pronto. 'no deal Brexit is massively unpopular with both Parliament and the electorate' - says you, based on what? Which polls are you reading and how far into the sand are they buried exactly? Forget the majority of twonks in parliament, treacherous pocket-lining <deleted> that they are, the electorate are who count. Didn't you see the European election results just last month? Besides this result which confirmed public opinion - a voting majority FOR Brexit (and by this point knowing No Deal is the best and simplest way of obtaining it). In other gallop polls that I have seen of late the public opinion is still very split but again the majority remain as one for leaving - not leaving with a deal, or being kind of in kind of out, or in the CU/or with a backstop (an invented issue as anyone with a mind of their own understands) - but simply leaving, as was written on the ballot paper, as promised by government. Having a 'confirmatory vote' on the result of the first referendum regarding something that has yet to even bloody happen would be the ultimate disrespect foisted on the public by a spineless contingent of self-serving elites. The UK public would be rightly incensed - they're already dangerously agitated and exhausted by all of this chicanery, so for that reason I don't think it'll happen - too many heads would roll politically if it did. But we shall see. The point is this - those on the remain side lost a fair, democratic plebiscite -simple as that- if the result REALLY is frustrated then you will have the last laugh, but if you prize that laugh above the cost of the democracy and credibility of our nation, then you should feel thoroughly ashamed. No doubt you don't see that way and I'm sure you and a worrying number of others wouldn't feel ashamed in such circumstances, and that's a great sadness.

Immigrants are a total drain on our country both economically and societally. What you believe is the propaganda foisted on us by the ruling elites. It started with ‘let’s all play nicely children’ from 1980s lady junior teachers. It’s all been replicated for Brexit and Project Fear which the same types of people all lap up. Of course only immigrants can be a drain on the country's resources, UK born and bred benefit scroungers that have never worked in their life are only exercising their democratic right. I should have realised that the scroungers that used to live next door in the UK were nothing more than propagandists waving the flag of project fear, foisted on me by the council elites in a brain washing exercise.
