Another new Brexit thread

[kaz7]

Shameful why ? it happens every year.....don't be fooled by the dog whistling of the snowflake left...………..they've had 3 and a half years to sort this out

Come off it,we are in a crisis and he doesn't want anyone to be able to shut him down,at a time of crisis he is totally out of order to shut the place down

Poor Godfrey - he seems to think he is calling the shots.......a Napoleon Complex maybe?

Wow. I think he's suggesting use of the Civil Contingencies Act. But for that to be invoked to force through Brexit, there has to be or might be
(a)loss of human life,

(b)human illness or injury,

(c)homelessness,

(d)damage to property,

(e)disruption of a supply of money, food, water, energy or fuel,

(f)disruption of a system of communication,

(g)disruption of facilities for transport, or

(h)disruption of services relating to health.

So he seems to be saying that as all these things might happen under Brexit, we have to Brexit!

The Sun will run with that (not in Scottish or Irish editions of course)

The next 5 weeks there is going to be dirty, spiteful, hateful unofficial election campaigning.

It's up to the public, on both sides of the argument to call it out.

I'm dreading it alone with a GE.

I just don't see how anyone could renege on the result this far down the line without it causing serious disorder. We can argue about the respective campaigns until we're blue in the face but the fact is more people voted Leave than Remain. Even as a Leave voter I don't think it was right to put such a complicated topic up for referendum with a simple Yes/No option on the ballot paper, without a lengthy debate beforehand, and without an impartial body doing it's best to explain the pros and cons to the general public, but that's what happened and that's the result that was returned, and since then the narrative from both the main parties has been to acknowledge that result and to seek to exit the EU on the best possible terms.

The biggest cockup was not confirming a refefendum on the final outcome.

That's not due to the leave campaign, they are such cunts that the main leaders wanted a 2nd referendum, because they thought they would lose the 1st, in Farage's case, he said a 60 40 vote was needed & ironically, 52/48 would not cut it.

It's wankers like Cameron, who assumed they would win & therefore never considered the shitstorm which would be left if they didn't.

But the referendum was flawed for the reasons you state & there should be another one to determine whether the final 'deal' is perferable, to not leaving at all . That should always have been the case, as the original was open to interpretation to suit any agenda, & simply because Cameron didn't have the brains to think it through, doesn't make another 'undemocratic'. It's the opposite.

If the parties will state exactly where they stand, at the general election, then that would make it even more democratic.

If there were to be a 2nd referendum between the final “deal” and Remain, would there be anyone prepared to lead the “deal” campaign?

I suspect that Boris will have worded that slimy French twat Macron who will veto and out we will go without a deal. There will be much uproar a general election will be called and amidst the outrage and election will be called and Corbyn will win.

This in turn will cause economic catastrophe, the lefties will blame it all on the Tories as the country descends into chaos violence and class and ethnic conflict.

Bercow's stepping down end of next month.

On the subject of bercow leaving

This is like the death of Mercutio, the light hearted, comedic element of the story is being killed off so we can descend fully into tragedy and despair as parliament and the 2 main parties tear themselves apart over Brexit.

Post October 31st parliament is going to a total shitshow and no place for Bercow's viral moments.

A shame as he has done a decent job under extreme pressure.

Convention dictates that the role should sit with a Labour MP going forward. Any thoughts BoJo might try and stick his oar in!!!!

I love a bit of optimism on a Monday.
