Popular Post the guest Posted August 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2019 Strange, they had since 2016 to short out a contingency plan for no-deal scenario, and now at almost the 11th hour they are only starting think about it? It makes you wonder what Parliament is for? Looks like they have been on recess for almost 3 years! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Loiner Posted August 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2019 And easy to see why the proles worship them with their Eton-toff fetish. BoJo and Mogg are behaving rationally and in their own self-interest - probably can't believe they can get an impoverished underclass to help them, in that project. Project Stupid is indeed anything but. They hate the toffs and they hate the proles. So where do the Remainers place themselves? Above everybody else is the probable answer. They are the chattering classes and new labour - the scourge of the twenty first century. Out voted by the masses and now out smarted by Boris!! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post smedly Posted August 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2019 too funny we have a collection of people tried to install an unelected PM and yet they say Boris is unelected, he is who the current government voted as leader of the party They say they don't want "no Deal" without actually explaining what that means, they had a chance 3 times to vote for a withdrawal "treaty" and rejected it We haven't even got to the "Trade Deal" talks yet because the EU refused to talk about trade until we had left. So lets get on with leaving and then we can talk about a "Trade Deal" We want to stop no deal lol - SNP want to split Scotland from the UK - it has nothing to do with Brexit, they want independence and yet want to be ruled from Brussels - boiling it down in straight talk - it is republican with a twist of insanity- it's "we hate the English/UK we want to be free, it is Republicanism with a twist...…………..who does Scotland trade with ? the UK LibDem - we will never respect any referendum no matter what - tin foil crew LAB - which way is the wind blowing today - if it's towards No10 we will back it but tomorrow the weather could be different so we are looking to the clouds meanwhile 17.4 million people look on wondering - why did I go out and vote for my Nation to get out of this growing bureaucratic political (Now Military) Empire that I want no part of We want a free trading nation - that is how it all started - what happened 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyluke Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 We know what the British voters thought about Brexit 3 years ago. In the meantime the British people learned more about Brexit and the E.U.. We will never know how they would vote now, as there will be no 2d. referendum. Brexit will take place on 31 October 2019, based on a vote which took place on 23 June 2016, with the promises and facts from then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am ashamed my fellow countrymen lack backbone, strength and pride in its belief of trading and being outside the stranglehold of the EU. You are lucky there are 26 other EU countries that you can go to if you are so ashamed.

He quite rightly understood that the UK and Germany would likely prevent France cheating and bullying their own agendas and dominating other members. Which also explains Macron's eagerness to get the UK out. At some point Germany will get fed up paying for French arrogance and self interest. Then the sparks will fly.

Popular Post Pedrogaz Posted August 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2019 This is truly fascinating. Read today that the proroguing of Parliament happens almost every year and indicated the end of the session....this proroguing started 3 days before the scheduled recess and ends 3 days after it....so there is only a net loss of 6 days. 6 days after parliament has messed around doing next to nothing for 3 years....I ask you. The problem with a vote of no confidence is that there is no time to hold an election....and polls indicate that the Tories will win (surprising after their total mismanagement of Brexit) but they will not command an overall majority, implying a coalition with the Brexit Party and DUP. They might even buy the Scots off with a commitment to another referendum on independence. The lacks of time and the need for a government to accept another extension from the EU really make it look like no deal is the way forward....they have to get rid of Boris within about 8 weeks and half of that time they will be prorogued. I was not a fan of Boris but I am very impressed with how he has taken command here and taken advantage of the petty squabbles among the opposition. Jo Swinson really blew it when about 10 days ago she refused to have Corbyn as interim PM if they collapsed the government. What an idiot the woman is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of that 37%, zero % voted for a No Deal Brexit. Yadayadayada.....and only 35% voted to stay in the EU, so your point is what exactly????? Everyone who voted for Brexit voted for a no deal Brexit. Look at the question....it is on wiki. It says "Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?" It asks nothing about deals.....it is simply in or out. The possibility of deals came up after the referendum as a trick for Remainers to thwart democracy. My own personal opinion is that they should now make a law that in any referendum, to alter the stats quo would need a majority of a certain size, say 10% or a 2/3 majority. But that isn't what the people were told or promised. Edited August 30, 2019 by Pedrogaz addition of text 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
