Current Affairs EU In or Out

[Frang]

Already seen local councillors on twitter pushing the line that what happens in parliament is nothing to do with local politics. They know what's coming in may.

Gutless cretins

Every single one

I don't think it's ever been clearer that there just isn't any good people left in politics

Well may 2nd is the first chance for the electorate to deliver a verdict, might be worth staying up with a few beers to see the results.

May second??

If he does setup a party to push Brexit, that 4million will be more like 8-9million......

I think we'll see it set up for the upcoming euro elections.

I've said before, imagine 70 Nigel Farages in Brussels. It could happen too. I've never voted for the Euros before but me and the missus will definitely be making the effort in May.

4 million votes say hi...


About the same as on that daft petition

SNP got half that number and ended up with over 60 seats. UKIP got 1 IIRC.

Something not right about that.

And vote for who exactly??

Why would 70 Farage's in Brussels be good?

SNP stood in 60 seats, UKIP stood in 600

For the popcorn value alone.

 

[Barnfred 55]

They still pulled 13% of the electorate for 0.1% of the seats. Fair? Not in my book.

No idea what the answer is mind you.

Get used to the fact we're not leaving the EU on the 12 April mate. It just isn't happening. Bercow will find a way for Parliament to get a prolonged extension. The EU will agree as they don't want a hard Brexit.

But you also know that these people always overestimate the attendance, so even if it was 50% more it’s still only 600k....

I'm not buying the 2m figures, not sure where this thing about the police estimate has come from, as the police don't give out these figures, they leave it to the event organisers.

But, 600,000k is an awful lot of people for a march, and, the way these things are calculated is to use a snapshot of the march at it's busiest and give an estimate, but it went on for hours, so largely impossible to tell. But, I think, it was comfortably 500,000+... Probably somewhere between that and 750,000 in total.

He already has taken over a non entity party.

Nigel Farage back in frontline politics as Brexit Party leader

The former UKIP boss says his new party could mobilise quickly if needed to fight European elections.

Hes only standing as an MEP, as his GE record is as bad as Everton's in the derby.

It's already set up. There's an entire thread about it on this site.
