Current Affairs EU In or Out

[Joey66]

....the challenge was always going to be getting any deal through Parliament. There’s no way a hard line Brexiteer PM with a slim majority could’ve done that.

A deal required special skills of diplomacy and conciliation. It needed the right person at the right time. May was not that person. She didn’t fail because she was a remainer, she failed because her ego told her she’d be the PM who would go down in history for negotiating a successful deal.

hence its time for a GE

It’s not a gamble if you’ve got a tonne of cash

Quite.

Democracy affords you the right to change your mind

You mean those who couldn't be arsed to vote Remain?

 

[arminisgod]

Yes it's nothing to do with Brexit...

it is... but it's completely normal for it to happen. MP's only have themselves to blame, the 75% remainers in parliament (who by the way did something far more undemocratic than this) have forced him into it.

Like the 52% who decided they didn't like their original vote from 1971? or whenever it was.

Because everyone on here keeps telling us it's old people who have voted to leave... so they are only doing what you say?

 

[Joey66]

Did RichardP tag team you on his way out by any chance?

Thats a cheek Bruce -this thread has been taken over since day one by remainers and you lead the way Bruce now the chickens have come home to roost, and democrocy will win either way a referendum or a GE you complain about a few Brexiteers on here

Because I'm sure no one who voted for Brexit would now like to remain instead....

That’s not true. It’s old people and racists

What was that?

Oh and where has the 75% figure come from, it seems like it's completely plucked out if the air.

 

[arminisgod]

If the remain MP's cared so much for Remainers they could have voted May's deal through.

But they didn't... they all played political games to try and force another GE to further gain themselves.

Remainers should be angry at them... not Boris

Exactly, democracy allows people to change their minds, and opinions change sometimes over a long period of time or a short period of time

We now have a better idea of what Brexit is going to be and it's perfectly reasonable to expect that some people who voted for it would now like to change their mind and those who voted against it might now decide that they'd like to follow through on it

I think enough has changed since that initial vote that it's reasonable for us to have another vote

If you truly believe in Brexit, you'll be confident it'll win again. What do you have to fear?

tell everybody they would respect the vote of the people.... a blatant lie. And have done everything since to block it

Jesus if you're going to harp on about it so much at least learn to spell it properly.

A lot of leavers didn't want that deal either
