If we vote for Brexit what happens
Comments

All the good new stuff was made good as a member of the European Union. Reading the amazing menu out aloud to justify leaving the restaurant to go elsewhere isn't logical.
We get daily evidence of just how fantastically well the UK has done inside the EU. The people posting it think it justifies their vote to leave the EU.
Maybe they have a highly developed sense of irony.0 -
It would appear that the "new" Conservatives under TM have wrapped themselves in the flag of UKIP. The right have never been slow to jump on a band waggon.
Looking at Britain from accross the channel National Socialism comes to mind.There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.0 -

does luxenboug allow unlimited immigration frompeoplr from all countries, races, religions or does it differentiate between against people from non white, non chrisitian, non european countries0 -
More good news for the Tories. UKIP's new leader has resigned after only 18 days.
Labour in disarray, UKIP joining them, most couldn't name the Lib Dem leader and the SNP are failing to capitalise.
What happens if we vote Brexit? We now know the answer - it's whatever the Conservative party say will happen.0 -

by and large, the Uk system of government is that the party with a majority in parliament forms the government
It's been like for many many years and has nothing to do with brexit as such, although brexit will give back full powers to parliament.0 -

The majority party forms the government? Thanks for that - learn something every day on here.
Just pointing out that the stars have aligned such that we have a government which doesn't much have to worry about opposition just as the UK embarks on a journey of fundamental change.
I find that worrying.0 -
Especially when that party has a track record of being self serving and only seemed to be getting kept in check by the body which they are now in control of leaving.
I'd be less worried about Brexit if it was being run by literally anyone else. At this stage I think even UKIP would make a more honest job of it; at least they know what they want.0 -

The ability for each and every MP to vote is unchanged
Indeed it would be better if there was an effective opposition which would have to be labour, if only to stop the tories turning in on themsleves- thanks for your concern.0 -
The only positive thing about this is that the frightening lurch to the right of the, very obviously not centrist, Tory Party - despite a completely supine media, is galvanising the Left into action.
If the Left has been guilty of anything it is of assuming that the corrosive jingoistic Bernard Manning xenophobia espoused by the Conrads and Claptons of the UK has gone away since the 80s.
It hasn't. Its alive and well and manifesting itself in a three fold increase in hate crimes and depressing displays of golliwogs with British flags appearing in grubby window sills and tourist tat shops run by bitter racists.
The Tory Party conference reminded me more of the Nuremburg Rally than a British political party at work.
A government that defines and values people by their ethnicity and place of birth has no place in modern pluralistic policies, and neither do the anachronistic dinosaurs that vote for them.0 -

as usual toxic toastie is wrong
every country in the world differentiates between citizens and non citizens even if the toxie and the corbyn party would like to kill off most of the UK population irrespective of ehnicity or place of birth0
