ShirleyPosted August 16, 2019 at 5:27 am |PermalinkI am utterly disgusted at the way many in Parliament disrespect democracy and the electorate. All the excuses the remainers are using could be applied to any election or referendum. Does that make every election and referendum invalid?Does the fact that many Remainers deliberately lied to their voters count for anything? They obtained their seats via fraud. The majority were voted in on a manifesto that promised to respect the result of the referendum.Fortunately, the Brexit Party are waiting in the wings. It is time we had a full house of politicians who put the UK and it's people first.

No to a Corbyn led government of national disunity and unreliabilityBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: AUGUST 16, 2019The UK has given its word to the international community that we are leaving the EU. We have held numerous discussions with countries around the world based on our new future. Now Mr Corbyn wants to delay our exit and create confusion about what we might do. His own party remains riven between Remain at all costs MPs and accept the verdict of the people MPs. Now the Leader of the Opposition is showing he cannot reach out and attract the support of the Lib Dems or Change UK for a No Confidence vote designed to put him in Downing Street. The Lib Dems were right to pour scorn on the idea. If they change their minds they will be badly damaged by  the reality of "vote Lib Dem get Corbyn" .Parliament's choice this September is simple. Does it at last  want to do the right thing, honour the verdict of the referendum and allow us to leave the EU on October 31 as the government plans?  Or does it have a narrow majority of MPs who want to bring on an early election, going back to the people and telling them this Parliament is not fit for purpose, can't make up its mind and needs to be thrown out? Were it to choose the latter it will be a difficult task for all those Labour MPs who stood on a Manifesto of leaving the EU to explain their about turn. It would mean any Conservative who had helped bring about such an election was unlikely to run again as a Conservative candidate. It means the near certain end to the Parliamentary work of those MPs who defected from their original parties and are now in Change UK in order to try to keep the UK in the EU.This Parliament would go down in history as the worst ever if it opts to disband this autumn. Only getting us out of the EU as the two main parties promised in 2017 can now improve the reputation of this Parliament. This Parliament may anyway have left it too late to try to hold an election before we leave even if it could call one. Ironically only if the election is held after we have left does Labour have more chance of winning a decent vote share.

So all 52% of brexiteers voted to crash out with no deal did they numb nuts? No they didn’t thus over 50% of the UK wants a deal. They didn’t vote for oblivion

i have my doubts about the future of our democracy as their are forces to undermine the common man,other wise known as the voter in the street................

aplphorn

it was sir tam dayell who wanted a vote contingent on approval of parliament majority to go to war with iraq..he is now since died..

if that had gone to the vote then we wouild not have gone to war which most people in this country did not want..

that man if you can call him that a man who was known as mandy when he was young,i will leave that description to your own imagination..

he had already agreed to go to war a year earlier with the reformed drunk bush..

'The UK is one of the longest-standing democracies in the world and has championed democracy all over the globe. The vote to Leave the European Union was the largest democratic mandate there has ever been in British history. How can the vote of the people be so ignored? The world shows outrage when other countries like Venezuela, Cuba or Iran face political suppression, yet are ignoring it now with the UK vote.'

Beware of reports fuelling No Deal hysteria based on documents which actually provide reassurance

There can only ever be one Brexit and that is a clean sovereign Brexit, which is what people voted for.Do You Know..The BBC gives far more space to Remainers, while endlessly patronising Brexiteers who dare to criticise the EU – as has been pointed out by David Jones MP.  It has just been reported that the BBC has received £4.2m in funding from the EU under its Horizon 2020 programme which provides grants for research and development.  One of the conditions for receiving such grants is that you don't criticise the EU. No wonder our national broadcaster is so willing to cover speeches criticising Brexit by people like Guy Verhofstadt, the EU Parliament's Brexit representative, while refusing to cover those of British MEPs, like Nigel Farage.

Proves your point Poikka. The tory party are infested by lib/dims.

Certainly not holding my breath, Rubi.

Here's a chappie who might not quite make it to the next election, as it appears that his constituency voted 35k to 30k to Leave

"However, Conservative MP Guto Bebb said those opposed to a no-deal Brexit "must take seriously this type of offer".

"I certainly take the view that a short-term Jeremy Corbyn government is less damaging than the generational damage that would be caused by a no-deal Brexit," he said."

That's the spirit, Guto.

You'll be waiting a while as it has been proved UK has not benefited from membership of the EU/Single Market.

Back to the horrible seventies. At least I’ve still got the candles!"

If we stay in the EU that is our fate.
For when the EU collapses we'll be presented with a £200-250billion pound bill if we are still inside..

We need out.
And we need out ASAP

Major global recession and debt bubble burst is incoming...

So you hit the filter button because some one showed how silly you are?
Well this came to pass a little soon then I predicted, but

Lloyds Bank (LLOY) 'On Topic only' - Thread - LLOY
here is a real "investment" tip
Sell every investment you have...now, no matter what the current price..back in to cash.
Exchange your sick/poorly Great British pounds in to throbbing Euros today..what ever the rate is now
After the 31st Oct, the UK crashes out of the EU and on to its knees.
Then simply choose when to exchange the good international currency back in to your islands pounds shillings and farthins, and enjoy a min 10% increase to your wad!
You will still be able to buy back in to your investments (if you are fool enough) any time in the next 2 years at the same or lower price
Quids in as you Brits say.

LLOY down 10p from that date, and Euro up 5p against the pound..but
What the hell do I know
There is a poster who claims if you buy and hold for 30 years you can not go wrong..as long as you survive I guess.
But..
Try telling that to the poor souls who filled there boots with LLOY 30 years ago!!

Are Brussels pulling the strings behind the curtains.. you bet!As long as the pathetic opposition, remainers, continue to argue and try to stop Brexit there is no chance for Brussels to renegotiate TMs deal.They are no stupid.

geoffrey bell 15 Aug 2019 7:15PM@Jedy Jedy ...."evidence from economists", an oxymoron surely? At least if they use the ones who said that the moment we vote leave 500,000 people in the UK will lose their jobs. What actually happened? We created 1,000,000 new jobs. How the EU would love stats like that on their side of the channel!

Dear Supporter,We are spending August getting ready for a General Election. There has never been a more important time to stand up for Brexit and campaign to Change Politics for Good.Thanks to your support, The Brexit Party has already reset the agenda for Brexit and forced the Tory government to promise we will leave the EU on October 31st. Now we need your help to set the agenda for post-Brexit Britain.Come along to one of the 10 regional events on our Brexit Party Conference Tour in September, and join in the discussion of our future policy options. Click here to book your tickets?We are clear that a clean-break Brexit is best for Britain and offers a brighter future. Anything else currently on offer from the EU would be detrimental to our interests.Prime Minister Boris Johnson promises to deliver Brexit on October 31st. We hope he will. But we have been here before with broken Tory promises. The Brexit Party will do whatever it can to ensure a clean-break Brexit happens.Our September Conference Tour is very timely, in the context of a forthcoming General Election campaign. It has never been more important to come and show your support.These regional conferences are planned to be different. Before the set-piece speeches, there will be a chance to book a one-to-one discussion with Prospective Parliamentary Candidates and MEPs from your region. This will provide an opportunity for you to pitch your idea for a local policy that could improve people's lives.
