Why do Brexiteers keep saying that Remainers are trying to thwart the result of the vote 3 years ago today?

That is a stupid thing to say.
Of course we are trying to thwart this terrible mistake and we shall fight on until we get the result we want.

I almost admire the group of crazy anti EU. Tory MP's who chipped away for 40 years at the EU. ignoring every democratically elected government and legally agreed eu. treaty.

just for a while they almost pulled it off with their dishonest campaign 3 years ago.

But I feel it is slipping away from them.
There will be a second vote.

Memories of Ali vs Frazier.
Cooper vs Ali.

The return match usually exposes a fluke result.

Do you think I care about a few chimps on this thread?

I am not here to win them over, I am here purely for entertainment, and to show them up for the losers they are. I also like to feed them bananas.

You can move into the chimp cage if you like?

'Redwood has a brilliant brain'.
He is an unworldly historian, maybe a brilliant one.
But he is not of this planet.
He rarely features in the front line of this Brexit thing, you would never put him in to bat, and they don't.
He is reduced, like the nurd he is, to writing long notes which are only read by a handful of followers. Often ill informed comment at that.

Kenneth Clark is my spokesman.
He has wide experience and has held many high level cabinet posts.
He knows how the World works.

Kenneth Clarke gives master class lectures to the likes of Redwood.
You must pick your heroes carefully.

Jeremy Hunt vows to abandon Theresa May's immigration target

Blimey, is he TRYING to throw the race?

[crossing_the_rubicon] 24/6/2019 11:27

@Stewart,

A second Scottish referendum resulting in a YES to Independence would necessitate another Brexit referendum if we havent Left the EU solely because it would be morally reprehensible for Scots to keep the UK in EU, but to then subsequently leave the UK taking all their Remoaners with them.

We must leave the EU, completely, else Democracy falls and what follows wont be pretty. So many MPs / experts have warned that "Not Leaving the EU, by overturning the vote of the British people, will yield an outcome worse than a WTO Brexit.

Hunt has no chance: he's a remainer, May rinse and repeat. May said she'd deliver Brexit, but she didn't. Hunt would be the same.

Conservative membership love Boris. They're aware of his character flaws and abilities. They will take a balanced view with the positives outweighing the negatives. They won't be bothered one jot by his gf kicking off over spilt wine, shows he's human after all.
Expect a relentless onslaught rubbishing Boris by the leftie BBC and most of the daily press except DT in the coming weeks up to the vote. Predictable.

[shy tott] 24/6/2019 11:14

When, or if, Boris gets elected then Alex will say it's null and void because no one voted for a blond PM.

[shy tott] 24/6/2019 10:44

No one voted for a no deal Brexit, very true. No one voted for a deal Brexit. No one voted for a smooth Brexit, an awkward Brexit, a give away Brexit, a stupid Brexit a sensible Brexit or any other type of Brexit.

We voted simply for Brexit. Nothing more, nothing less, nothing alternative, nothing additional. Therefore, we have to leave the eu. Not stay in, partially stay in, argue the toss why we should stay in, invest post-voting arguments why the vote should be ignored or anything else. We should just leave.

[shy tott] 24/6/2019 10:37

Brexit, Hard Brexit, soft Brexit, crash out, nuclear bomb Brexit …. all designed to appeal to emotion and ignore logic.


The question was 'leave or stay'


A majority voted leave. Anyone saying we should therefore stay for whatever reason under any circumstances is really a traitor to democracy.


Why is that very simple democratic concept so hard for some to understand?


The most absurd suggestion from the remainers is to have another vote …. so after disposing voting as meaningless and ignorable, they want another! It's a bit like woody alan complaining that the meat pie was disgusting and the portions were too small!

[minerve 2] 24/6/2019 10:30

"A dozen or so" Conservative MPs could support a vote of no confidence to stop a no-deal Brexit, defence minister Tobias Ellwood has told the BBC.

He told Panorama that many backbenchers and ministers would rebel if the UK faced leaving the EU on the 31 October deadline without a legal agreement.




Do it, thankfully there are some Tories that aren't morons.

Fair enough but a few decades is perhaps blurring the issue.Are you invested in gold and related instruments? As well as predominantly internationals I like a weighting in that sector. Picked up well since early May. GOLD (ex RRS), IGLN and SPGP currently held.

[alex1621] 24/6/2019 10:28

What's absurd is your deliberate misinterpretation of the point that I made. The point being that as no prominent leave campaigner promoted a no deal Brexit without transition arrangements, no one can claim that outcome as being the only true Brexit.

[minerve 2] 24/6/2019 10:27

Shy Tott

Whether you like it or not a vote to LEAVE was NOT a vote for Hard-Brexit. If you interpret that - because you are a Hard-Brexiter - that is your problem. You shouldn't assume things. Only CHIMPS assume things like that.

Syria was a great move to freedom. Nothing left but death and concrete left-overs.

All these movements are brought on by populists who will promise you everything you want and in reality they deliver very little.

[shy tott] 24/6/2019 10:22

Alex, honestly mate, you seem to have fallen for the most stupid of argument designed to thwart the vote we had.

The only possible argument in a referendum is 'which alternative got the most votes'. I take it you know the answer to that. Anyone who argues that the alternative with the lesser number of votes - for whatever reason - should have their wishes actioned is …… well, imv, insane.

To argue that the result is void (or indeed not void and the minority should be actioned) due to what was not said is absurd. Most things were not said, a google of things were not said. An infinite number of things were not said.
