Motion - the country is completely broken

Won't get fooled again.

Never say never!

True but if you’re not politically motivated & get the paper for the racing & the tits but read every page then that’s how they get you. Not you & not me…….anymore but clearly that’s how they did it.

How many people really know much about Politics? & don’t they know it.

I agree but at the end of day if people don't know much about politics they can either learn or not vote. Voting on the basis of what a paper who shows tits is the readers fault. In a democracy everyone gets a vote if someone wants to prevent that or make sure everyone is educated to what they believe that is dangerous.

Which was your democratic right. I don’t agree with you but at least you used your vote.

Think the only vote I’ve missed was the AV one that Cameron granted the Lib Dems. I was too ill to get to the voting station. Think it’s vital to cross the box, whatever the election / referendum.

I agree mate

Over in Aus you get fined for not voting.

vultures picking at the carcass of public services poisoned deliberately by the far-right policies that thatcher turbo-charged, cheered on by little-englander racists led and conducted by murdoch/dacre media propaganda. Incompetence is not a factor, the destruction of democracy has been planned and enacted to a degree only dreamed of before the referendum .

The media tell you something often enough people start believing it. Joseph Goebbels knew a thing or two about that. Change Jews for immigrants and you start to see the picture.

25% turnout at the recent Urmston by-election. And a new member of Parliament was duly elected. Funny how MPs don’t apply the 50% threshold that strike action requires.

I thought that the requirement for strike action was over 70%?

I don’t think I said I lived there at the time. I lived there over 20 years ago. The town I lived in was next to Luxembourg border. I would imagine they’d be horrified at the break up of the EU. The Germans I lived and studied with were very much pro-EU. I also lived in France, near the Spanish border. They saw themselves far less as “European”. In fact, a sizeable chunk were more Basque than French.

So you had enjoyed the benefit of free movement in at least two countries and voted to remove it from others....?

No. To get strike action, 50% must vote in the ballot.

Blair worse than Truss? Ooookaaay.....

Killing a million people is a very low bar.
