Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
A senior civil servant, Mark Sedwill has produced a document full of doom and gloom......a supposed letter(leaked, well it would be wouldn't it...people will believe something if they think it was being hidden from us)...
food up ten per cent, police unable to protect us, impact on NI, block on borrowing....

all meaty stuff....all aimed at creating fear in the population.....because a fearful population sits down and does as it's told.....doesn't it? Not if it's British it doesn't.

This man wants us to believe this....to be shaking and fearful.

Now if food does rise ten per cent it will be because of greedy manufacturers who have been given permission to use the Brexit as an excuse for hiking prices.
Anyway, that might solve the obesity crisis.

How does this man know all these things?
Has he got a crystal ball? A doorway to the future that he can peep through?

No, of course not....these are just how he THINKS it MIGHT play out.

The civil servants in Westminster are unelected....but yet they seem to exert power over those who ARE elected.....and isn't this what we are trying to,escape from.......those who have only THEIR interests on the agenda and not ours.

I still want to be OUT....with no strings attached to us.....nothing to tie us to the toxic and failing experiment with people's lives, that is the EU.

Is it just me or what? I reckon the speaker should keep order in the house, god knows it needs that. But the fact the speaker can determine what is discussed and what is not goes way beyond the power they should have in my opinion. you get a prat like Bercow, making his mind up on what suits him i reckon. this should not be allowed in my view.

Bercow choosing what gets debated is about as politically impartial as media editors deciding what gets published. But at least with the latter there’s more than one.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
So after a marathon Cabinet meeting there is going to be a further delay to Brexit....and TM has promised that there will be no chance of the NO Deal option.....add to that the slimy worms Oliver Letwin and Yvette Cooper are going to force through a law that prevent us leaving on No deal terms....this is being allowed to happen by the dwarf John Bercow.

So let us hope that the EU are as good as their word and they end it once and for all on the 12th of April.

I predict a riot.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
This is a complete SELL-OUT by the slimey gets who represent (pretend too) the public vote, I fear our country will NEVER be able to re-build until every M.P. who has fought against the public vote, has been removed from office. which is NEVER likely too happen, they have destroyed DEMOCRACY. all i can say is anyone voting for any one of these creeps is a damn fool.

Margaret Pilkington 02-04-2019 18:47

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
69% of Yvette Coopers constituents voted to leave the EU....I bet they are impressed by her performance.
61% of Oliver Letwins Constituents in Dorset voted to leave the EU

There are 400 MP's in Parliament whose constituents voted to leave the EU.....so these men and women are a majority....but yet many of them are betraying their voters....overriding the democratic vote....doing what THEY THINK is best....not doing what they were elected to do....which is REPRESENT the constituents.

The deal is rotten to the core....the Parliament is rotten to the core.
The swamp needs to be drained.

Interesting, what would also be interesting was to see how each of these MP's voted in the various votes we've had.

Margaret Pilkington 02-04-2019 21:54

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Yes, you are right....but right now I feel so disheartened and disillusioned.
I am also very very angry....that our votes mean so very little to those who are in Westminster.
I half wish that an election would be called(except that it would be pointless as it would change very little at the moment) because it would (I think) show these snakes what we really think of them....because I do not think they have any grasp of how betrayed the people feel....some of the them would be kicked out on the bones of their B-hind...and it would do them good to do a real job of work away from the rarified atmosphere of the capital.

Ryewolf90 02-04-2019 22:48

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
I'm also wondering which would have precedence A No-Deal Brexit Bill passed by the UK or the EU default stance of exit on 12th April, both of which would be legally binding?

And secondly what happens if the bill is passed, meaning it requires the PM to ask for an extension of Article 50 and the EU says, sorry no extension, you leave on 12th April?

Margaret Pilkington 03-04-2019 05:57

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
I cannot see the EU NOT granting an extension really....they do not want US...but they do want our money.

Macron is reported to have said in some media publication(I can't now remember where I read it) that 'England has scuppered the plans for an EU Superstate'
He is said to be against granting an extension, but Donald Tusk said he would grant a long extension.

As for the laws thing.....maybe the one where we leave by default with no deal would be revoked.
I don't know...only guessing(not a good ploy)

maybe our representative in the Palace of Westminster will come on here and tell us whether one would need revoking.....but I won't hold my breath waiting for that,

Margaret Pilkington 03-04-2019 06:11

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Another interesting story is that Robin Tilbrook of the English Democrats is challenging the government in the High Court on the legality of the extension.
He is saying that we are already out of the EU as the agreed date of the 29th of March was a legally binding contract.....that Mrs May is wasting her breath in trying to do anything else...because we are out.

Legal eagles say although the argument is strong, they believe it will fail.

No there definitely is not any hope for your generation.
If I were you....I would look at getting myself out of this country....Canada....Australia....either of those would do for me.
I am too old now to flit.
Should've gone in 74.

I do not know how you can look forward to a country/civilisation that is bereft of democracy.
Whose people feel so let down by those who are supposed to represent them.

Now if your post has been misconstrued by me and you feel that you would fare better within the EU....I would urge you to look at the Barcelona treaty....the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan....and lastly the final part of the Lisbon Treaty(the treaties are legally binding documents by the way)
If we have not left by 2020, then we will be FORCED to adopt the Euro, there will be harmonisation of taxes, closer political union, the European Court of Justice will supersede any court in this land....there will be a European Army, we will be pushed into the Schengen Zone....and will be forced to accept unlimited freedom of movement.

None of this sits well with me.
Our Parliament will become little more than a parish council....rules will be handed down to us....we will have very little say in how these rules are passed because our voting weighting is currently only 8%....but will rise to....wait for it...12%.

So if this is what you want then....go for it!
I am sure you would be able to become naturalised in France, Spain, Italy, Portugal and be part of the EU.

Yes...that is so....and they will be even less value for money than they are now because the Houses of Parliament will not be making laws....they will just be rubber stamping the ones handed to us by the crew in Brussels.
In fact I think one of the prime reasons that they are currently running around like headless chickens is that they have quite forgotten WHY they are there....and have become ring rusty in respect of legislation.
They want it all handed to them on a plate....do not want to tax their grey muscle....and they certainly aren't taxing anything other than US.

Thinking about it, I bet it would be better for our 'hard working' members of parliament to concede to the EU and let them choose the pay rises, after all the EU is even more generous with other people's money than the set of assholes we vote in.

IMHO the talks with Corbyn are unlikely to reach any sort of conclusion as the Tory MPs will see it as joining hands with somebody with strong Marxist views. The PM repeatedly says that the result of the Referendum must be respected. What respect will there be if we end up in a Customs Union? Its not what I voted for.

PM keeps saying we must respect the referendum result Any result of this tie up which may get passed will I feel certainly not relate to what I intended when I voted so, respecting the referendum result ?

Here's what Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay has to say:

He says the government cannot support the bill as it is "being passed in haste and is constitutionally irregular".

He notes that MPs have only been given two minutes to speak, which is not nearly enough and, if passed, the bill will come into conflict with existing legislation on the statute book relating to the Article 50 process.

He urges the "constitutional experts" in the Lords to address some of the flaws in the "defective" legislation.

Not enough of a majority to be taken seriously and obviously it was only achieved because uneducated M.P.s were allowed to vote. Perhaps we should get them to vote again and again until they come back with the result we want?

It is unbelievable that politicians(those who consider themselves educated...and better than us) have made such an Irish elbow of things.
They are worse behaved than a cartload of monkeys.

If I was a betting man, which I'm not, but I'd guess that this bill will be passed (with a few amendments).

Margaret Pilkington 04-04-2019 20:11

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Of that there is no doubt....but hopefully there will be a bit of filibustering by Leave peers....just to delay things.
The cherry on the cake would be a denial of an extension....but I won't hold my breath on that one either.

Ryewolf90 04-04-2019 22:27

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Unsurprisingly the Peers have approved the bill at second reading without a vote. The remaining stages of the bill will be debated on Monday.

I have been saying all of this for ever so long....if you ask the man in the street about the Lisbon treaty....they will not be able to tell you anything about it, let alone these worrying changes that will come into effect in 2020.

This is why I have been so Anti EU for so long.

So this video tells me(personally) nothing that I did not know.

All this has been planned to be accomplished by stealth....without the people knowing what is going on.

More stuff for those who do not believe the video.

This stuff is really scary....and for our children and grandchildren has far reaching consequences.

We have all SEEN how peevish and Vindictive those in Brussels are....so it should be cause for concern if we do not get OUT(and it's looking increasingly unlikely given the turn of events) because the EU will do everything to punish us for our audacity.
And there is NOT A THING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT.

We cannot veto anything, we cannot abstain from casting a vote....so those unelected goons in Brussels will have us by the goolies.
All the laws will be handed to us...our judiciary will have no power.
It does not matter how much we disagree with what is handed to us....we can do nothing to change it....our vote weighting is a puny 8%.....will raise to a puny 12%....not much we can change with that level of power
We will be compelled to be part of the Schengen Zone.....forced to take as many migrants as they want to dump on us.....and NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT.
If we think the deal that Appeaser May has negotiated is bad...this outcome will be a thousand times worse.
The EU will have control of financial markets, they will be the ones setting taxes....so you better believe that we are going to be taken to the cleaners.

We will be compelled to adopt the Euro.
We will lose our sovereignty and become a Federal state of the EU....a vassal state...with us on our knees to Brussels.
We will be in the jaws of the crocodile that is smiling at the thought of us being....lunch.
Now, do you get why I am so Anti EU.

Most of the points you make are contradicted in the article you provided a link to. There has been a viral post doing the rounds stating most of the points you highlight.

Margaret Pilkington 05-04-2019 15:27

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Some of the points ARE contradicted...BUT.....if we do not get out, the things that are contradicted will come into law....made by the EU because they know that once they legislate there is nothing we can do to change it.
I have read another article which has pointed this out, but can I find it?
No....I cannot, but it is at least a couple of months since I read it.

What I will say is.....DO YOU TRUST THEM not to do these things when they clearly state that the aim is to ensure that ALL EU MEMBERS adopt EU rules??
Because I don't

Margaret Pilkington 05-04-2019 15:40

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
I will have another look for the other article and post links to it when I locate it.

My distrust of what politicians tell me is total....especially in respect of EU politicians.

Morecambe Ex Pat 06-04-2019 08:26

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
No I do not trust them which is why I voted to leave but misleading articles like the one you linked to only give the remainers fuel for their belief that all leavers are as thick as pig muck.

Remainers are quick to point out that Britain has a say in all matters of the EU and that by leaving we are giving up that right. If we no longer belong to the club, why do we need to follow their rules.

If we are selling products to other countries, whether in the EU or outside of it, the product has to be fit for purpose, up to the required standard and be competively priced.

I just don't understand where tariffs come into it, they say they are there to protect local jobs but our manufacturing industries have been overwhelmed by cheap imports.

Of course our own government have played a large part in killing manufacturing off as they concentrate their efforts on financial services down in the centre of the universe. As risks go, that is a big one because the whole financial industry could relocate to anywhere in the world, at the drop of a hat and then where would UK plc be?

cashman 06-04-2019 08:51

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Remainers are the ones that told bigger and more lies than the leavers, Cameron, and osborne started em off and may and loads more carried on with them.

Margaret Pilkington 06-04-2019 14:08

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
The lies go further back than that.
We were let into the EU via a trading organisation...and those in government knew exactly what was being done.
The aim of the EU has always been to 'sleepwalk' nations into a position from which it would be hard to escape.
So Heath was one of those who led us like sheep to the slaughter, but it was John Major who ratified the Maastricht treaty which damaged the U.K.
Then Gordon Brown signed off on the Lisbon treaty.
This is the treaty that Eire rejected and was sent back to vote again until they came up with the answer that satisfied the Brussels goons.
I just hope that they deny the request for an extension...or better yet chuck us out.
A vain hope, I am sure.

Could a 'No deal Brexit hit my holiday plans?'.

Depends if you believe that bull**** grows on trees.

Version 1: - The Remain View Point.
Sorry but if you have booked a holiday outside the UK then you are out of luck. All foreign travel has been suspended as the ports and airports have all been closed to keep those pesky foreigners out of good old Englandshire.

Version 2: - The Leave Version.
Yes, of course you can come here on holiday and be ripped off in the Eurozone because apart from fishing in your waters for depleting stocks of gastrofish, what else have we to offer? Please come and visit us as with your pounds in our pockets, we can try to pay off our debts to that EU lot who, it seems, own all of our mineral wealth as well as our women.

The House of Commons approves Lords Amendment 5 to the #EUWithdrawal5Bill by 390 votes to 81. This concludes debate on Lords amendments to the #EUWithdrawal5Bill. The Bill now awaits Royal Assent.

Basically we can't leave the EU on a no deal or maybe not as EU law supersedes the law that's about to be passed......

Margaret Pilkington 09-04-2019 06:14

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
We can't leave the EU on a no deal basis....unless they chuck us out.

What a load of useless tosspots we have in government....supported by a load of useless OLD tosspots in the H.o L.
I hope they are all feeling very pleased with themselves.
A pox on Cooper and Letwin....bring on a GE and then we can show them our ire.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Almost three years after a vote to leave the EU and still no decision has been made on how best to achieve the exit.
A bill to stop a “no deal” exit is discussed, voted on and passed in a few hours.
It’s obvious to me that this pig trough called parliament is determined to keep the UK in the hands of the corrupt dictatorship of the EU.
Last year I was expecting Britain to be a free Country again by now and there would be celebrations in the streets.
Instead, I’m sat up in bed reading the news and drinking my morning coffee wondering if my hopes and prayers of a free UK will ever come to fruition.

when the big majority of em wanted to remain in the first place it was obvious to me that they,d fight tooth and nail to get their own wishes and sod us. the only time they do want us is a general election and its always been the same.

Margaret Pilkington 09-04-2019 09:06

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Russell, it was a vain hope I think.
Our opinions count for nothing....our votes mean nothing because they can be trumped by those who purport to represent our wishes...but clearly do NOT.

It was a huge shock to the establishment that our Anti EU feelings were so strong.
That just shows how divorced they are from the man in the street...how little they know the electorate.

I have watched with disgust the shenanigans in Parliament and have come to the conclusion that most of the representatives there have pus for brains.

How do they not 'get' that you play your hand of cards like you hold all the aces.

We have been sold into permanent vassalage to the EU.
I fear that we will never be free from Brussels meddling....and I also fear that there will be punitive measures instigated against us in the future.

Margaret Pilkington 09-04-2019 09:40

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
TM has flown off to Brussels today with her begging bowl...for an extension to article 50.
It is reported that the price we will have to pay is to stay in the EU until March 2020(meaning the expense of the election of MEP's who will never exercise their rights in the EU Parliament) we will also be punished by losing some of the current freedoms.....and the EU will insist on a mechanism which prevents any future Brexiteer PM from reversing the powers.
So, with friends like these you do not need enemies.

Angela Merkel, it is reported failed to show up on the red carpet to greet TM....but waited inside the building.
Discourteous and undiplomatic...how many more ways does TM need to show her that her presence is uinwelcome...she needs to gift them her basence...and ours too.

OH....heck I forgot that Cooper and Letwin had set fire to that plan.

Say that the EU say we have to stay in until next March.....with no chance of influencing any of the laws, trade deals or whatever....BUT STILL having to abide by those deals, laws etc....how damaging they could make things.....and our useless politicians still running round with no kind of a plan...still not agreeing on anything.
I think this is a ploy to induce Brexit fatigue...so that we will accept anything...worst of it is...our clueless lot will take anything.

That’s been the EU and May/Hammond’s plan from day two.
It worked in Ireland, Holland and Denmark. In France they had to fly in some votes from the Pacific and Indian Oceans to win their referendum.
