You see these are the type of bellends giving brexit a bad name




I would say encouraged by watching farage and boris.


It's a shame as there are many peopel who want to leave who are sensible and decent, but are not getting listened to amongst the idiots shouting.

Well, it was all I could do in the end. That and the LibDems and Greens offering not to stand in Labour constituencies with a large Leave vote (careful to remember that most Labour voters even in those areas voted Remain).

That's not true. We listen to decent people on here who want to leave.

Interesting that this is from the Telegraph - they pay(paid) Johnson circa £200k per annum and have been cheerleading him for 12-18 months

In your opinion.

The EU is a union of each member nation, and not every member nation uses the Euro. There are ELEVEN currencies of the EU, not one. The aims of the EU were to help build up each nations economy, not force them to combine their economies under one currency. The EU should be seen to increase the status of the Krone, the Pound Sterling, the Lev etc.

US aren't in the EU, so I don't need to criticise anything in that regard. The UK IS a member of the EU, the UK is not a member of the Euro, it has it's own currency. Why is the Euro promoted ahead of the Pound Sterling? The Euro should be A currency of the EU not THE currency of the EU. I was fully behind the spirit of the EEC and with things like the Euro, Schengen, Eurozone and other aspects that the UK vetoed (and were against) we were starting to feel like we were being left behind and the EU didn't care.

But no, it was about immigration... FFS.

Why should the eurozone countries promote the pound? I've never seen the UK do anything for the euro.

If it's going that way, Parliament votes to ask for an extension. Boris tries to pretend this is not a vote of confidence. The EU says they'll take Parliament as the sovereign body of the UK, not some trumped-up mandate-less PM who can't command a majority, and says you've got an extension. How about three years, to make sure you have to have a GE?

I assume that as things currently stand the leave on 31 Oct is the default setting unless new legislation is passed? I don't claim to be an expert by any means on parliamentary process, but I very much doubt there is time for this or much else for that matter when one factors in the Westminster and EU summer recess.
I understand why the vote of Parliament should be considered more valid than the wish of the (unelected) PM, but by an extension of the same logic the decision of the 2016 referendum would of course take precedence over a few hundred souls in parliament. It seems Remainers are only happy to devolve power to the level at which their view wins.

Is the UK the EU?

No. We're part of it, our currency is also part of it, yet it appears it is seen as the lesser important currency to the rest of the EU, just like the Krone. They are all currencies of the EU but the EU only ever promotes the Euro.

Why doesn't the UK promote the euro though. Surely it's in their interests as an EU member? Oh wait, it isn't, it's a competing currency and they'd have to be fucking mad to support it, just as the Danes or eurozone countries would be to support Sterling. It's like saying you should buy rag merchandise a it'll promote Manchester.
