Hi Danny - good to see you back - that 'march' was a good laugh though - but don't worry Tommy will be out soon with a huge bag of coke paid for by his patriot supporters and he will lead them into the promised land line by sniffin' line. Obviously this pic needs a bit of tippex to do the dream justice.

Good point!

The general rule in a democracy is that the winning side in a vote gets its way and the losers accept the result.

Anything else isn't democracy.

From the "thick as mince man himself" so you should be able to understand it...

Brexit is about as far removed from the general rule as is possible. We now have a deeply polarised country, families not speaking to one another and come what may, animosity for years to come. 

Oh, and the prospect of the United Kingdom being dismantled. 

How would you propose we move on? How to address these complex problems? Or don't you care and prefer to bellow slogans?

The general rule I cited refers to democracy. Your observations refer to social and political problems which exist in many democratic countries not going through Brexit. Try looking at the activities of Gilet Jaunes for starters. 

Upholding democracy is not a slogan it's a set of principles.

The cure for so called problems with democracy wouldn't exist if Remainers observed the general rule , as opposed to the resolution of problems within the undemocratic EU, which is more undemocratic EU.

I think I know where your bed is.

So, that would mean you leave the EU and then you decide whether or not you want to rejoin?

We need properly costed options before executing a plan not hearsay and back of fag packet calculations , pickled with lies and dark manipulations. Now we have a much clearer vision of what Brexit would mean what is wrong with putting it back yo the British people. If all you Leavers think it is a popular as you seem to think then you have nothing to worry about.

If we follow your tenuous logic any democratic election is rendered null and void shortly  afterwards because, more information is known, the people didn't understand what they were voting for, it wasn't clear what kind of socialism/far left conservatism they were voting for etc, etc.

Most downhill ski races are won by tenths of seconds but the winner still wins. The losers don't turn round and say  ah but you only won by a small amount, so lets do it again. Your argument is not only invalid it's adolescent as well. A theme I have noticed with Remainers in general.

In the UK the overriding democracy is parliamentary democracy. Parliament voted 3 times on the May deal and I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes 4 in the near future.

Unfortunately, your logic isn't just tenuous, it's completely flawed. It wasn't a democratic election, it was an advisory referendum. Very different.

 

And yes, a general election can be re-run if the outcome isn't clear. February 1974 and October 1974, a lot less than 3 years.

It was a democratic referendum where much was promised.

See my post 158 "Broken Brexit Promises" where it was clearly stated by Remainers what Brexit meant. Can you show me a link where the PM said it was advisory?

Promises don't pay the bills. Promises from political parties have no weight in British law. If it did, most British politicians throught history would have been locked up. In America, Trump would now be serving a thousand life sentences. Extremely naive for anyone to expect a politician to keep his promise.

 

By British law the referendum was advisory. GB is a parliamentary democracy, which is why, after the referendum, parliament needed to vote to invoke Article 50. If it had been voted down, that would have been the end of it. Nothing you, or any other howling Brexiteer, could have done about it. Parliament has voted 3 times on May's deal, parliamentary democracy, why not twice on a referendum? Nothing much changed between the votes on May's deal, a great deal has changed since the referendum, 3 years ago.

Now it is all finished,the banter that is (hopefully).    Boris set out to do what the gormless May was unable to do,get the UK out of the EU,and he did it magnificently    

  Why he has to go to Paris is unfortunate,especially after calling the french turds,still meeting the dwarf and his ancient ailing wife may put a bit of fizz to upcoming events

Good post. It just shows how duplicitous Tory politicians can be. Same as Boris voting for May's deal.

There are many remainers that are duplicitous also. ????????

 

Someone who is duplicitous is almost like two people, saying one thing but then doing something very different, even contradictory. Someone who is duplicitous can also be called "two-faced," a vivid way to remember that this person shouldn't be trusted or taken at face value.

Hopefully Hammond will deselected like all those others who got into office, on a promised manifesto, then decides it doesn't suit their agenda.

As it has already been pointed out, only remainers brought this issue up in the run up to the referendum. They were dismissed as "project fear" by howling Brexiteers aided by Cambridge Analitical, AIQ and The St. Petersburg Troll Farm.

 

It's now become "project reality".
