Remember Y2K? Everyone thought the world would end. But, nothing happened. Same, Same here.

Like the writing on a bus, Brexiteers have a habit of regurgitating little "gems" that have been shown to be completely in correct.

Y2K was in fact very real but international an EU cooperation between computer programmers avoided a very real problem.

Just because it didn't happen doesn't mean it wasn't there ...on that occasion the "it's project fear" merchants were ignored and real measures were taken...

It's that bad...

 

Domestically, the US system is so strong and dynamic it will recover from Trump. The worrying question is whether the international system that the US created can also rebound.

The prognosis for Britain is darker. The British polity is doing lasting damage to the nation. As The Financial Times chief economics commentator Martin Wolf observed in March, the UK "has fallen into the hands of lunatics engaged in an astonishing act of national self-harm".

 

Three big conclusions can be stated as established facts. First, British politics is deeply polarised. Another election is inevitable. The poll may deliver a realignment of political power, or merely entrench the polarisation. Second, Britain is leaving Europe. The economics of this is dumb, even mad. Britain will be relatively poorer because of Brexit. Third, Britain will be a weaker international power, with less diplomatic and strategic influence.

 

As the Oxford economist Simon Wren-Lewis keeps hammering: "What the UK is doing is utterly, utterly stupid. An act of self-harm with no point, no upside."

Let's have a second referendum and then accept the result as legally binding and move on. We just have to move on but not crash out.

at least she is not a sex tourist, unlike most immigrants in Thailand

Well Thailand doesn’t seem to mind and has been welcoming them by the million for the last thirty years or so.
Well she would have to be one or the other - got to be a sex tourist or an immigrant because they can’t be both.

On the contrary,I love those little Brown bar girls and I voted brexit

There’s a Brexiteer who’s not a waycist. Millions of them around, contrary to Remainer opinion.

British officials have told the European Commission they will accept all of Theresa May’s Brexit deal,except the Irish border backstop, ahead of a meeting between Boris Johnson and Jean-Claude Juncker on Monday. The revelation, coming as David Frost meets EU officials for talks in Brussels today, has raised fears among Tory Brexiteers that Boris Johnson is preparing to foist a May 2.0 deal on the UK, despite Mr Johnson's insistence that the withdrawal agreement "is dead".

As long as you promise to accept the result this time , even if you lose again .

  Would you promise to definitely accept the result of a new referendum ?

Also , if Remain did win , that would make the score 1-1 and there would need to be a decider

We won't lose 'the people' know so much more now and I trust an informed electorate. The referendum should be binding yes. But no 'no deal' - remain or leave with a deal those should be the options. And before an election - let's separate that out from the rest of the issues which should come into play then. Then no more referenda - and that's includes Scotland  - sorry but we are Better Together to quote a phrase. Then we can all get to whatever it was we did before this.

Blimey except for oldhippy it's the Leavers-Losers nutjob thread !

People have always claimed that Brexit was sold on the foundation of immigration and played on the inherent racism of some Brits. Of course, Brexiteers vehmently denied it.....until now. After this thread, there's no more denying it, not just the posters who openly expouse their racist views but those who "like" their posts too.

 

I hope the mods leave this thread unexpurgated and pinned, so that we can all refer to it whenever Brexiteers claim that Brexit was not about immigration and people's racist views.

It's pretty hard to see how Brexit isn't going to be kicked down the road yet again...maybe 2 years or forever . 

UK has let a dodgy referendum put democracy in an invidious situation.... Referendums are not an integral part of British democracy and as shown by the last one, they are potentially the tools of dictators, demogogues and despots.

It was advisory and not binding and this is part of the problem. For anyone who still doesn't understand the legal situation regarding the referendum here is the parliament document explaining it to MPs....

UK  is up poop creek in a barbwire canoe without a paddle.....

 

Referendums are the tools of demogues and dictators.

 

Most democracies require a "supermajority" i e.g.  - 66/33 % to pass any concept as constitutionally fundamental as in the UK at present.

 

The last referendum was advisory.

 

You can't vote the world flat anyway.

So for the sake of clarity OLD people predominantly voted for leave and are thankfully expiring, YOUNG people don’t want it - so how do you think a second referendum would go ? Take your time now .....

Leave would win as many young people can barely read, spell or be bothered to get out of bed. So if there are more than a few words they are stuck.

You having a laugh?we had a binding referendum on stay or leave,and you,'re comparing that to the "tools of dictators,demagogues and despots " if it's that desperate in the uk,why not emigrate to the Shangri las of the eu?

People who manipulate referendums don’t respect laws. It would also require them to read and understand them, which is more difficult than Poor Pat’s latest YouTube rant or a simple lie on a bus.
