Brexit the economy and house prices part 7: Brexit Harder
Comments

And unlike takedap I recognise this is not about what I want but what those people who voted in the referendum want. So why the intent now to discredit or demean those people that voted in the good faith that the elected representatives would deliver against those votes?
I absolutely agree that the people who voted in the referendum should get what they were told they were voting for.
They were told that they were voting for something that was as good or better than our current arrangement with the EU. A "have your cake & eat it Brexit" which some of us knew was impossible.
Hence my earlier quotes on sunlit uplands, no downsides etc. That is where your "in good faith" argument falls down.
That is certainly NOT what is on offer now.0 -
Why don't you just pack it in with the Faux "I am offended" nonsense, you are fooling nobody. And lets not forget why you Brexiteer supporters are posting on a property forum in particular. For reasons beyond me you are hoping for a property crash from the no deal outcome, what you are going to get from it beats me unless it is the joy from seeing decent hard working, sacrificing families suffer as a result, that's what I personally find obscene, so don't lecture me on racism when you probably have had zero impact of it's effects in your own life.
Like I said, I'm not offended, I'm simply pointing out what should be obvious. I also voted remain and would be perfectly OK with that outcome if it all ended tomorrow.0 -
Some of us consider that the pro-EU frothers on the opposition benches are extremists too.
In terms of brexit the only extremists are in government. You accept that right?Why would I?, I'm not obsessed by labelling and grouping people like the left and far right are.
Because it can help identify racial and gender discrimination. Why would you seek to prevent that?0 -
Yeah, it's the rich that want brexit. It's not going to be good for any of us.0 -
In terms of brexit the only extremists are in government. You accept that right?
No, I'm not aware of any extremists in the Government. I would consider Momentum to be an extremist group and their influence on the Labour party is very strong. Both Corbyn and McDonnell are both extremists with there support of terrorist organisations and affiliation with the far left.
Because it can help identify racial and gender discrimination. Why would you seek to prevent that?
No it doesn't.0 -
Jess Phillips says man arrested after trying to smash windows at her constituency office
The Labour MP Jess Phillips, who represents Birmingham Yardley, has revealed that a man has been arrested after trying to “kick the door” of her constituency office while reportedly shouting that she was a fascist. She told LBC Radio:I’ve only just heard about it myself but my staff had to be locked into my office while the man tried to smash the windows and kick the door, I believe. I don’t know what I can say because the man has been arrested.

MaxiRobriguez wrote: »What has transpired is that a deal which would maintain a sense of order won't go through parliament because the ERG won't vote for it
402 MPs voted against the WA in January and the 391 and 344 voted against in the two votes in March. There are at most 65 members of the ERG some of whom voted for the WA the third time it was submitted.
To say that the WA won't pass Parliament because of the ERG is simply not true. Most of those who voted against it were remainers who won’t accept any outcome other than remain.0
