Current Affairs EU In or Out

"deadwood"

Deadwood indeed, as they no doubt will be finding out tonight or early tomorrow morning.......

That's a souvenir edition 'Nice Tories' list.

Interesting to note that pre Tony Blair Labour were anti EU.

The chances are the ones that have gone to SAGA holidays in the sky voted remain. Ask Bruce. He came out with details of all these WWII veterans who were totally against Brexit.

Seriously though, there is evidence that the 85+ generation who remember why we fought the war preferred to stay in the union. Which makes sense given that the union was originally set up to try and prevent future continent wars.

Of course they did. The generation that voted for this is the one who didn't fight or really experience WW2 directly and have always felt inferior as a result, thats why they've always responded to jingoism positively even though they benefitted more than anyone else from the post-war European movement.

All traitors who would be joining the blackshirt movement in another lifetime. Disgraceful

Think you are confused fella, its the people who want to leave you would associate with the blackshirt movement.

 

[Moomin]

Don’t care if we live in mud huts for rest of our lives, and I lose my job.

I’d prefer all that, than stay one more day in the European Union.

I feel absolutely sick at any prospect of remaining.

That's a bit dramatic to say the least.

You really should rename yourself

Steady on, Jacob, you're frightening Nanny and the children are refusing to drink their cocoa. It was only a vote. You lost. Get over it.

 

[Hawhaw]

This is rather populist and extreme.

MPs don't exist to vote as you think they should.

They’re meant to serve the people.

 

[Paris]

I feel sorry for you then mate.

Hopefully as time goes on you experience something that can sway you to a more moderate view.

I'm going on personal experience. I wouldn't trust the majority of those who I've met at all.

A fine flagellant mellow drama.

Tonight and tomorrow will give Boris the perfect excuse. He wanted and promised to leave on Oct 31st, this shower of self serving mp’s stitched him up and made it be delayed. He will walk any election......and have a clearout of deadwood.....

I'm amazed that there's a sentence, written in the English language no less, that includes the words 'Boris (Johnson)' and 'self serving' and yet the former is not the subject of the latter.

 

[Deleted member 48881]

The way Johnson attacked Corbyn after the vote was disgusting. A PM should not talk like that. Hopefuly he suffers a terrible election defeat. Fearmongering about Corbyn and this and that really bored me and is childish

 

[The binman chronicles]

If only Milliband could eat a bacon sandwich properly we wouldn't be in this mess.

Or Gordon Brown didn't call Gillian Duffy a bigot.

 

[peteblue]

Ruthless and stupid; the fact he (and they) remain MPs means they'll be walking around the same building still. He now has a majority of -20, or -30 when the DUP realise that he can no longer actually do anything for them. The government will be unable to do anything.

So will therefore fall and a GE will be called......do you see what he did there.......

 

[Hickson9]

They’re meant to serve the people.

And they do.

Through voting as their conscience and reasoning dictate.
