Honesty & democracy were pushed aside, which just about sums up why we need to leave, our politicians no longer have the will to do other than obey the E.U. without consequence for the U.K. people. |

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
May was too interested in appeasing the remain voters, maybe trying to please everyone, she could not allow herself to be the one to go against the referendum vote, but maybe should of adhered to Abraham Lincoln (You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time)

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
I don't think she was trying to appease remainers...I think she was trying to appease (and appeal) to everyone....and it cannot be done.
She wanted to strike some sort of compromise....but the gulf was too wide between the remain and the leavers. As I said it was DC who cocked this up...except it goes back far further than that. The time we SHOULD have been given a say was before John Major signed the treaty of Maastricht. That was when we were not so tied into the political side of this corrupt organisation. While it was a trading partnership it was acceptable(just)....but once it morphed into a political organisation....that is when it all went south. MP's have become used to taking the rules dished out by Brussels...they have been 'coasting' and paid very well for it. They have really forgotten how to govern. |

Spot on, Margaret.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Thank you...I am not such a daft old bird then.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
I have just heard that voting in leave areas was much lower than voting in remain areas. that to me says it all," how STUPID some people can be",

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
I haven't seen the turnout figures Cashy, but it matters not....the vote sent the resounding message that the electorate are angry.
Only in London did the Brexit party fail to get seats....and even there they voted for the Lib-Dems.....because in London they want to stay in the EU...and the Lib -Dems promised to thwart Brexit....just showing that they are neither Liberal, nor democratic so should done under the trade description act. If we do not get out by October 31st, then this shows how the country would vote. The main parties would be toast.. |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Those in London that voted Lib Dem just cos of remain policy are complete SCUM imho

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Yes, they do not accept the democratic decision of the rest of the electorate.
I do not understand why, after three years of insults and nastiness by those who were negotiating the Leave agreement, they still want to be part of this corrupt club. Why would you want to have your laws dictated to you by those who do not live here, have no idea of how we hang, it is being taken over by a foreign power that you cannot remove. Now, forgive me, but did we not fight two world wars so that we did not take orders from foreign powers? |

Why would you do that Monkey Hanger?
Yes it IS a different world down there....so many incomers.....there are many privileged, but also many disadvantaged too. what does the EU do for those down there that would make them so insistent on flouting hard won democracy? If I heard a bunch of politicians bad mouthing my country, my culture and my way of life I would want no part of their organisation...because it shows a lack of manners,integrity, decency and respect...and why would you want to be part of an organisation that did not respect you...but just wanted the money you were contributing? I just do not 'get' it. |

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
In 1975 when we were last asked to vote on the EEC(as it was then) I voted NOT to join...because I reckoned it was going to morph into the beast it has become...when I mentioned this to my dad...he laughed his socks off and said I was daft(or words to that effect).
I accepted that my vote was in the minority amd have spent all this time waiting to be asked again. We SHOULD have been asked before that poor PM John Major signed our sovereignty away at Maastricht...but we were not. Like Cashy I have no qualms about those who voted to remain(but think they are a bit deluded...and certainly over the last three years I have not felt overjoyed by their insultsdid they learn at the knees of their EU masters?)...by them trying to tell me I am too dim to understand what is at stake...I know what is at stake if we do NOT leave. I voted with my heart(because I am a patriot)...but also with my brain because I have not lost my power of thought, analysis or reasoning. I read a lot, I searched out information that would help me to decide. It was not about racism, it was about taking charge of our own destiny...not accepting rules handed down by people who had no interest is seeing our country succeed. I reasoned that when Michel Barnier and JCJuncker rubbed their hands and grinned...that this deal was not in our favour. It does not take a genius to work that out |
