Many Irish fought with the British against the Germans in the War, grahamite2.

Plenty of blood on the streets already, in London, due to Black gang warfare.
Why? Drugs, turf,and a breakdown of the social contract.

Now imagine Democracy is overturned - and how that will aggravate far far more people across the nation!!!

It's already happening.

Suggest you take your patronising beret drivel and shove it up your jacksie

Some would argue that democracy is falling now, or not functioning well.

The British Constitution is strong and democracy will survive.
All that will happen is that at the next election in 3 years time, many people, particularly the young, will shake things up and try something extreme.
Maybe an extreme left wing party like Corby's Labour.

The Brexit votes are a good example of how democracy is not functioning.

No one is voting for Mays deal on its merits. SNP, Labour, UDP, ERG all vote for alternative reasons nothing to do with May's deal.

Right now less that 20% of the voting population, the no deal Brexiteers, are holding the democratic process to random by adopting wrecking tactics.
Even extreme no deal Brexiteers are voting against their beliefs because they fear the 100,000 local Tory party members.

Similar with labour, their looney left party activists (500,000) hold the power.

These are the new power elite.

I don't think ANY country would be looking to leave the EU after seing the shambles this country has ended up with.

There's plenty of "blood on the streets" and it's got nothing to do with Brexit.......

Irexit - not a great deal of support for it, but the feelings are similar to those over here. They've done very well out of other countries' contributions to the EU, and EU subsidies which they've exploited to the full!

"The party plans to run in the European and national elections on a platform that calls for increased Irish sovereignty through Ireland exiting the EU.

Speaking on Today with Sean O’Rourke this week, the spokesperson of the Irexit Freedom Party, Hermann Kelly, said that Ireland had fought for years against the United Kingdom to become “a self-governing independent state”.

“In 2011, the Irish Budget was approved in the Bundestag instead of the Dáil. The country was run by the Troika, they decided the economic policy of Ireland.”

He said that there had been a valid argument for Ireland to join the EU in the 1970s because it was “like a cash cow”.

“But going forward now, Ireland is a net contributor to the EU, we give them €2.7 billion (gross) per year, the net figure is half a billion.”

He said that Ireland was paying figures like Jean Claude Juncker to write and implement many of our laws, which he said were not helpful.

In a Red C poll, conducted on behalf of the European Movement group, 76% of people said that they “agreed strongly” that Ireland should remain as part of the European Union.

When asked about whether there’s public appetite for Irexit, Bassett says that polls before the Brexit vote indicated that Remain would win by a landslide.

“But in all honesty, it’s probably very much a minority taste,” he adds."

WBecki, there a number of comments from last May, June, July, that you have not responded to.

Just comment in real time...we're not hanging on your every response.

The all powerful hidden hands of the establishment don't want Brexit. We will never leave...and I'm as upset as anyone.

[bbalanjones] 02/4/2019 07:35

cm44: My sincere apologies. I do not like to invoke derogatory expletives. In my frustration at JR-M and perhaps others of his stripe, I used the name of a fine Steel Town inappropriately. The answer is in the spelling sequence. Crass of me but this situation is unforgivable.

Just watched 2 MPs interviewed on @SkyNews supporting revoking Article 50. Not once were they questioned on the alarming anti-democratic nature of this. A truly extremist position treated as just another option.



That'd be because they arent very bright.

Overpaid and yet they're still monkeys.

"“When Jon Snow moaned about all the ‘white people’ at the Leave march, what he really meant was ‘bad white people’. Brexity trashy white people. In liberal elite circles, ‘white people’ is now PC code for the lower orders.”

Brendan O’Neill in @spectator




Jon "Socialist" Snow is the epitome of all that is wrong with the UK

Hi k38,

I am sorry but you are wrong, the majority in the UK did not vote to leave the EU. Of those who had a vote fewer than 50% voted to leave the EU. (I enjoyed the video you mentioned with the views of Alice Weidel and agreed with much of what she said)"


Incorrect. The majority who were eligible to vote and actually voted did vote to LEAVE. That is all that is important.

51.9% to 48.1%

Indisputable fact.

You're peddling the usual Remoan lie.

Of those that voted, more than 50% voted to LEAVE. it was 51.9%

Maths not your strong point!!!!



"Nearly three years after the referendum we now have a huge difference of opinion about what leaving the EU actually means"

No we dont. It's only in Parliament where there is this difference of opinion you'll find.

Still at least all you Remoaners know what "Remain" meant eh!!



"Labour wants us to stay customs union. Some Brexiteers say being in the EU customs union is not leaving the EU"

That'd be because it isnt leaving the EU!!!



"A majority of MP's do not support the deal proposed by the Government. Some Brexiteers say the May deal is not leaving the EU"

That's be because May;s deal isnt leavign the EU either - it is Brino


"Some MP's think that only by walking away from the EU without an agreement would we actually be leaving the EU. The vast majority of MP's (and even Theresa May) know that would be an act of economic vandalism"

Incorrect. They want to LEAVE with a CETA style deal both May/Robbins and Parliament have denied as an option. Not Tusk offered this CETA from the off(Absent NI)



"If MP's have different opinions on what Brexit actually means how can Parliament possibly know?"

MPs are parliament.



"Are MP's really supposed to act on guesswork? This issue needs to go back to the people and the sooner the better"

No MPs are meant to do as they have been instructed, not spend their time working out how to dilute and overturn the Referendum vote.

Drop the backstop and we have a deal !!"

We dont want May's WA with or without the backstop as it isnt Brexit. It is aCusoms Union - Remain wtih no Say option. Otherwise known as Brino.

Unacceptable and not Brexit.

Hi

There is so much misinformation being churned out by Brexiteers.

As long as we remain in the EU we will retain our power of veto. This extends to veto on tax, veto on a European Army, veto on our budget rebate (if anyone tries to stop it) and even our veto on any attempt to remove the veto."



Incorrect
Veto over foreign policy and taxation are beign eroded,with a view to phasing them out already!!!!
Only misinformation here uis being peddled by Remoaners.



"People who don't want to see the EU turning into a United States of Europe should realise that only by being in the EU can we with any certainty prevent it from evolving into something we really don't want."



More misinformation. We dont want UK sucked into a Federal Europe but if the EU want to federalise absent us, whatever - that'd be their decision.




"Parliament is trying its best to find a solution to the Brexit impasse but is totally gridlocked. This issue needs to come back to the people for us to decide. The fact that we have a choice to stay or leave, in itself shows that it is us, not Brussels in control of our destiny. We are a sovereign democratic country and that will not change"

And yet more misinformation typical of pillow biting Remoaners.

Parliament is trying to overturn the Reffy decision by hook and crook.
We dont need another Reffy, we just need to LEAVE - only two scenarios honour the Reffy result : WTO or CETA.

The choice to STAY or GO has already been made.It just isnt being implemented.




"We need a legally binding vote to settle this and the sooner the better"

WE have already had that.

Parliament voted to delegate the Brexit decision to the British people. We voted LEAVE. Parliament then voted to enact Art 50 and take us out of the EU. We had a general Election were both main parties, securing 85% odd of the vote, said they;d respect thte vote to LEAVE.

That is legally binding.

[wbecki] 02/4/2019 06:52

"That is why I want out of the EU. No deal, no special relationship. Just trade the same as we do with the rest of the world without having to pay a huge membership fee to be in a club which puts us at a disadvantage.

The EU is doing a very good job of impoverishing the UK and the UK is full of quislings and petains who are doing their best to help them."


Willoic would be spot on.

Brexit isnt about Protectionism - that would be staying in the EU

Brexit is about liaising with the world on same terms, defined by us, not the EU as we puruse a level playing field for every nation.

All indicative options fail to get a majority
But Ken Clark's customs union came very close.(3)
Confirmation referendum also closer.

Clark just spoke, what a class act he is.
This afternoons speech by him was a master class. Educational"

Clarke is a serial whinger and dimwit - given he was chancellor he should know the perils of a Customs Union


"Too many options split the vote, they should add the customs union to Mays deal and they could get it through"


You do realise May's WA is a customs union right? For Manufactured goods and Agriculture, with all its implications for social policy policy, et al????


They should simply walk, WTO (layer on bilaterals and FTAs speedily) or go for CETA.

Only these 2 options are Brexit. Pursuing neither means we sow the seeds of serious social discord going forward

The fact that we have a choice to stay or leave, in itself shows that it is us, not Brussels in control of our destiny.

Except for the fact we already made that choice and it ain't happened yet.
