European elections results

Tough sell?
With the US President on your side, the Prime Minister on your side, the CBI on your side, the combined Commons, and the Unions
and Bob Geldof rooting, who the fuck did you use as salesmen?

Its not the salesmen its the product you have to look at - when you have people lying through their teeth promising the earth to people who are already in possession of your product thats what makes it tough. Remove the bus promise. Tell the truth about the Irish border. Explain how split Parliament is over it. Don't claim it will be the easiest trade deal in history.............you see..............tell lies and embellish your product's appeal and you get sales. Funny thing is they lied and misrepresented to endanger the future of a whole country - you do the same if you are selling a corkscrew or PPI and thats actually against the law. Maybe the outcome of what happens to Johnson things will be different.
 
God almighty mate, I've seen some squirming in my time, but this has just reached number 1. No, and why I'm responding to this, fuck knows, I can't prove that everyone who voted for the Brexit party wanted to leave the EU, just like I can't prove Elvis didn't once have a shit in my back garden, but I'm pretty sure more than one or two did.
I think you missed the wood for the trees there.
 
1. The Tories will be carved apart if they ever propose a 2nd referendum.

2. Delivering Brexit is the only reason why people voted them into power in the first place.

3. If the EU won't play ball then the only thing to consider is how we leave and not whether we leave.
Numbers added.....

1. Not necessarily. Parliament produces another impasse, too many of their MPs simply will not countenance No Deal, have the referendum (AV if you want, order of preference the WA, No Deal or Remain), then till 2022 (with DUP support) to try and recover.

2. That's not true. (a) they haven't got power after 2017, and (b) they needed Remainer Conservatives even to get that reduced number of seats.

3. "How we leave".... Is this something that hasn't been the problem for three years? It is, as they say, "not easy of solution".
 
The ballot paper didn't tell us what remain looked like.
For further information on this topic, see about 2000 pages in the Brexit thingy.
Some people like analogies.

The jury has found you not guilty. Off you go.

The jury has found you guilty. Now all we have to do is decide how to kill you. (Slow lingering death or pushed off a cliff, or the latter with some sort of safety net held by unicorns.)

The people removed their working majority forcing them to do a deal with a minor party so that they could cling to power. Not sure this tracks with people voting them into power to deliver Brexit given the people made it all but impossible for a minority Govt to actually do so.
 
Include politics and its game over? We should defo go back to pre EU individual power blocks in Europe and let Germany, France and the UK sort the others out. That worked well in the first 38 years of this century and for a few hundred years before it.

I cant wait to hear Boris opinions either. I'm sure they will mirror Nigel's quite closely.
That was the imperial era. We don't have empires anymore, either of us. It's not a compatible point.

I don't think Oscar Wilde has got much competition.

I'm pretty sure his posts a wind up one. Its people who voted to leave who are racist and thick so I really don't see people who want to remain voting for a party called Brexit not with IQs that excel Stevie Hawkings, although the biggest racist who comes in our local has been slagging us off for voting to leave for 3 years because his holidays have gone up,.And last week he voted for Tommy Robinson so anythings possible I suppose.
 
it didn't need to - as we haven't left yet Remain looked like what you can see when you look out of your window now............politically, legally this is still Remain. Thats why it was a tough sell - much easier to promise sunny uplands, unicorns for all and ...ahem Boris....£350m NOT being sent every week to the EU but all spent on the NHS instead.
You're bang on the neighbours have got a skip full of shite outside my window just now so about right.
