The UK is still negotiating. Parliament has declined the EU's offer. Ultimately common sense will prevail over the EU's political posturing. Normality will return in time.0 -

Seeing as the UK makes a sizable net contribution. Who is going to fund the difference to simply maintain the status quo. Let alone contribute to the increased spending plans.
If money wasn't everything you wouldn't be residing where you do. There's many ordinary working people across Europe who would enjoy your lifestyle.0 -

Not bad for a political party formed mere weeks before said election though and with candidates named only just in time.
No wonder remainers go googly-eyed and squidgy-tummied at the thought of Farage fighting a GE; they know how good a campaigner he is and if The Brexit Party have good reason to renew the crusade .................0 -
Zuzel, what is the source of that chart and what does it show exactly?
Maybe it shows the party with the RELATIVE majority in each constituency, which is a different concept.
I already debunked that chart a few posts back. I asked what it was meant to show, but, as usual, the Brexiters' silence has been deafening.

It's easy to find, even if you obviously don't like what it very clearly shows.
I found it.
When you find it you'll see it says this too:Our map by council results shows that the Brexit Party topped polls almost everywhere in England and Wales.SouthLondonUser wrote: »I already debunked that chart a few posts back.
Really you didn't.
You had a bit of a strop because you don't like it and I expect we'll see you try it again.
Well, if you will insist on making yourself look foolish you go ahead.
We're used to the remain types here doing that.0
