Remoaners Revenge...

Options
Nice to see their latest efforts to sabotage what was a democratic vote to leave by preventing the possibility of a prorogued parliament as a method to get a no deal brexit through.

Well done, you have just removed the leverage we needed to get a better deal and if we don’t leave on the 29th Farage will be laughing all the way to the next election. A spectacular remoaner own goal.

    No just treacherous remoaners who are happy to sellout their country because of sour grapes at losing the vote.

    You simply cannot support the proroguing of parliament and play the anti-democratic card at the same time and expect to be taken seriously.

    Proroguing parliament to force through a no-deal would be the most undemocratic thing a UK government has done for hundreds of years.

    It's quite alarming to see brexit fantasists becoming so desperately tribal that they're happy to see democracy utterly destroyed in the name of some playground negotiation strategy.
  • When was the referendum? Oh yes, over three years ago now. In the time since, the government has failed to deliver Brexit. Arguably it has let down the electorate; but an electorate that no longer exists. The electoral dynamic has changed. Many of the old, backward-looking, lags who voted Leave have now died off, and a significant number of forward-looking young people who would vote Remain have come into the electorate. Hence we have a new electorate, so we must have a new referendum.

    Then surely we should also insist on a new crop of parliamentarians, not the feeble bunch we have now. Kick out all the two faced MPs and get some decent ones. Then again, something like that would probably take years to achieve.

    And on that basis we'll have to have a referendum every 3 years as the electoral dynamic will have changed.

    Or people who just don't want to destroy their homes, economy and livelihoods. Lets face it, we all know for example why the Brexieers for example voted for such a destructive option going on why they are discussing it on a property debate board. They quite simply want chaos where families and hard working people lose their homes so they can rummage through the debris later.

    They must be stopped, and lets face it, they voted for a return of power to parliament and that is exactly what they are getting
