Funny. I recall having one in 1975. Didn't stop Nazi Nige & his cronies campaigning to overturn that 'Once in a lifetime vote' though did it??? Mmmmm

Best of three?
Didn’t stop him ‘insisting’ that there’d need to be a second referendum if it was 52-48, as that would be inconclusive. Apparently it would only have been inconclusive if he’d not been on the winning side.
 
When & where did Farage say this? It's a simple enough question which has a bearing on a no deal Brexit.

I'll wait patiently whilst you did it up... Just gonna make a brew in the meantime.
I think 'no deal' is as much the fault of those who thought they could force us to remain by voting down the WA as those who voted it down for other reasons. A lot of crying over spilt milk, and rather typically those who have enjoyed the finer points of parliamentary procedure over the past year or so now seem most unhappy when it doesn't play to their agenda.
 
Using minorities as a reason to change your constitution?

Undemocratically bypassing a parliament to push through your far right agenda?

There's two for a start.

Also, seeing as Brexit is about the UK regaining its sovereignty, what about Ireland's, Scotland's & Gibralter's sovereignty? Where dya stand on those?

I quite recall the Third Reich (Empire) having similar colonialist views... The same views Brexiteers are using against the EU, as our reason for leaving.
I'm sure someone as obsessed with the Nazis as you appear to be will find Nazism everywhere. For example people drive cars... so did the Nazis!!

What change to the constitution are you even referring to?

"Undemocratically bypassing Parliament"? Prorogation has been used before, it;s not a new thing, nor is it "undemocratic".

If those regions want sovereignty that is entirely their decision. I notice you didn't mention Wales or England's sovereignty from the UK either. Interesting.

I'm also guessing the concept of Lexit completely passed you by, didn't it.
 
MP Jess Phillips response


If that is a genuine letter it is extremely unprofessional from Phillips.

She can make her position without being snarky, but it's what i expect from our "Parliamentarians" these days.

You mean the ERG? Apparently Brexit wasn't Brexity enough for them. Are you blaming them, the DUP & Boris?

What’s disappointing is though, is that’s it’s like supporting a football team. Everything they do is great and everything everyone else does is terrible. There’s no dichotomy in wanting Brexit and being uncomfortable about this device being used but, as ever, many have just decided that anything goes as long as they get what they want. It’s why actually having a sensible discussion on the subject of Brexit is all but impossible, which is a major disappointment.

You mean she wrote with genuine emotion rather than contrived cobblers? Funny as I thought you guys were all for that ‘straight from the heart, tell it as it is’ malarkey
 
And the arguing over Brexit continues as Johnson undertakes what is tantamount to a coup against Parliament.

Wake the fuck up everyone, open your eyes to what is happening, this is dangerous, its unprecedented and every single one of our MPs has been side lined by him. We are heading into dictatorship and our democracy is in huge fucking danger.

Again, a false comparison. I've never said anything like what you've just claimed.

"You guys"? Who are you referring to?
