Britain set for December 12 election to break the Brexit deadlock


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

So the options are..

 

mini trump, a right wing nationalist and a quick brexit with a deal and crashing economy 

 

or

 

a far left socialist who will take years to come to another brexit outcome and who will also destroy the economy with their far left lunatic policies in the meantime

 

or

 

No chance Lib Dem’s

 

..either way the circus will be throwing millions down the drain every single day..

 

..roll up roll up the choice is yours!

You mean common sense scraped by in 2016?

If so, the UK should have honored that vote and left shortly after.

Time and a lot of information have moved on. It is now 2019, in fact nearly 2020. Let all the new young voters have a say.

Why dont we vote every 3 years just in case people want to keep changing their minds?

I like their confidence in being able to break the deadlock. Another hung parliament is quite likely and then back to square one.

 

A GE is the least effective way of sorting Brexit out. Might as well toss a coin.

I fear that virtual tossed  coin shall keep almost undecided standing on his side …..

You could always argue that if the Conservatives win a clear majority with Brexit on their manifesto, then they will have the mandate/will of the people to follow through on the 2016 referendum. That's democracy.

Isn't that what I said?

Good, the people finally get to choose a new parliament.

 

Prediction, Labour are going to get what it deserves and thats decimated from all sides and rightly so, it stands for everything and nothing. 

 

Should rename this GE The Purge because theres going to be lots of political Turkeys going spare this Xmas thats for sure. :thumbsup:

 

PS Labour are also nearly broke, its membership is down 57k,  "the peoples vote" fell apart at the weekend with in bickering, a sacking and refusal to leave and to top it all Tom Watson was going around this week doing interviews stabbing Corbyn happily in the back lol

 

Oh yes and Labours amendment attempt for 16 year olds  and EU members residing in the UK to vote just fell flat on its face... this how desperate Labour has become, sad but true

 

 

     Mid winter Election too cold to go out and vote .  

     Christmas offers in the shops , not have the time to vote .

     Apathy rules in the UK ,  why bother to vote ..

      Another low turn out expected ..

Losses to the SNP? Last time around, the 'Popular Movement for the Liberation of Scotland' LOST 21 seats, notably dumping former First Pontificater Minister Salmond out on his Westminster butt along with Angus Robertson, their House Leader, while the Conservatives gained 12 seats. Even the hapless Scottish Labour somehow grabbed 6 seats.

 

Lib Dems?... mehhh

And yet the SNP still ended up with more seats than every other party combined. I very much like the latest predictions for Scotland post GE, however I will not get my hopes up for a Tory-free Scotland just yet; I have been disappointed before. But what a beautiful thing that would be to wake up to on 13th December - a very welcome early Christmas present.

Aye, but there's not too many that see a loss as a win. Like DJT claiming the US troop pullout from Syria as some sort of glorious victory?

Awfy blue lookin' doon sooth, eh?

 

But what about those orange weirdos north of Conon Bridge? I would watch them like a hawk, they could be Norwegian separatists.

Of course, if it produces the "wrong result" no doubt it will be claimed that it was " only advisory"...

And based on what laws exactly would that be possible?

A specific "quality" of a GE is that it is the only time at which the public are not advisors and are, quite determinedly, participants.

 

All this time and yet so many have taken no opportunity to familiarise themselves with UK Constitution, Convention, Precedent/Law.

 

Pure ignorance.

No it won't be claimed that - but it will be repeated in a few years.

 

Unlike referendums, which can only be advisory under the UK constitution law, and do require a specific Act to enable them.

 

False equivalence. It's the liar conniving politicians who promised to abide by the referendum result because they expected a different result; and then lied again to try and win an election, that's the issue.

 

An election won't change that. They'll still be liars.

Irony filter settings...

Agreed,

 

Let's do it every six months instead as there are bound to be young voters coming of age to vote.

 

Shows how desperate and daft some of their arguments are.

 

I have never seen in my life such a sorry bunch of disgraceful losers as the remain camp.

Exactly. And their attempts at legitimizing another referendum? "How can more votes be less Democratic?".

 

Laughable.

While Boris' Tories are no doubt the favourites, Nigel's Brexit Party could have an impact.  Will all those Labour/Leave northern strongholds really vote Tory just to get their beloved Brexit?  Much easier to vote for Nigel.

 

The Remain vote is horribly split, but tactical voting could make a difference, if some Lib Dems are prepared to hold their nose and vote Labour.

If the U.K. (In accordance with the E.U.) vociferate, in a couple of months, that it is now out of the E.U.,

(but in reality isn't);

would the man in the street evidently perceive it? 

 

For the older, as myself, Belgians I know,  we all assume we are part of the E.U., as we have been told so, and continuous remembered. 

However none of us perceive any concrete difference from before the E.U. existed and now.

Labour MP Jon Trickett has just concluded the first car-crash party election interview of the campaign on GMB. Susanna Reid & Co couldn't quite believe their ears...

 

I'll upload it later ????

Keep up the good work Nigel ....... 

 

@Nigel_Farage

If the PM wants to fight a general election on defending a new EU treaty, that is very disappointing for all Leavers. His new agreement is just not Brexit.
