Nor did I post the link you included when you quoted me. Might want to do a bit of looking back yourself. It was your comrade,however you posted it so one would assume you agreed with. It.

There are supposed to be about 1.2 million Brits in Europe. Are they also undercutting wages and working conditions for the European working man in your eyes? How do these europeans in the UK undercut the Brits in according to you? Minimum wage legislation (which by the way was brought in by the labour government and opposed by the Conservatives) would make that impossible.

dexterm Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 As an outsider Brexit/Remain will not make one iota of difference to my life. Could not all the parties who sit in UK Parliament state clearly exactly where they stand on the issues? 1. Brexit - No deal 2. Brexit - best EU acceptable deal that does not destroy peace in Ireland. 3. Remain and/or Referendum (binding..proportional representation/preferences??..certain majority??) - on all of the above positions. Full funding disclosure, TV debates, reasonable discussion/negotiating time for lead up to election/referendum. Then that's the end of it whatever the result for next 10-20 years (a generation) Just a thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remained wanted a people's vote,Boris offered you a general election,you bottled it,well ,well done you,be succeeded where the Luftwaffe failed you,ve destroyed britain. Well I’ve been so impressed by the Oppositions negotiations techniques that I decided to try them myself. So this morning I went into my bosses office and said “if you don’t give me a better contract I would’t resign”. After a moments silence- as she was no doubt stunned by my strong arm tactics-She just said “OK”. It was that simple, I could believe how quickly she caved into my demands. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately those who lost the vote, decided not to respect the electorates decision. So then for the next three years we have had a situation where those same people have tried every conceivable trick to cheat the British people. Even though that vote was endorsed in parliament, and then at a general election in 2017, when over 80% of the electors voted for parties who stated that they would honour the people’s choice. Come 2019, after our treacherous and dishonourable M.P.s had been demanding an election in order to give everyone another chance, amazingly they turned it down, knowing full well that the people would not back them. So now we are no better than a banana republic. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s an advisory referendum. It’s being “respected” by considering the advice. That’s already happening. 2. How do you “respect” the wish of the electorate who want to leave without a deal while at the same time “respecting” the wish of the electorate who want to leave with a deal?
