But with labour being more remain and having twice the share of the tories, it's pointing to a remain victory in a head on referendum. But still ridiculosly narrow and greatly concerning so many people have been conned into thinking WTO Brexit is a preferable outcome ffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but this is the fucking stupid thing about Labour, they're just hiding a decent chunk of Remainers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mm. I can see the logic based on the results last time and all, plus Gavin Esler seems a decent sort, but I think I'm going to stupidly put my faith in a full-on pro-LD swing here that could net them a third MEP.

The reason we are paralysed and can't move on is because Brexit makes no logical sense. The constant lies from the leavers, lapped up by the gullible or malevolent, have led is to this cul de sac with no good outcome. Whoever delivers it, or doesn't deliver it, is fucked. Now you being a non UK resident just want us to do something and i can see why. This is also what the brexiters now want, the EU ro make the decision for us so they can blame them. But will that work for them? I don't think it works for whoever is PM tbh. Fair comment. I completely agree that it makes no sense whatsoever, and if I was still there I would have been firmly in the remain camp. I am not sure what the answer is, but Brexit is not the answer. I understand your position regarding a second referendum, as well, because you are now stuck in a completely fractured country where about half are stupid and the others apparently have no say, now, because of the lies spouted 3 years ago and the continued ineptitude of the opposition. As has been said more than once, if Corbyn was not an avowed Brexiteer (which he seems to think no one knows), Brexit could have been rejected as not being in the interests of the Country as a whole. Of course, MPs should have been making that decision themselves, not giving up hard decisions to the ill-informed and stupid. Ironically, the only reason for the referendum was to avoid the implosion of the Conservative party, and all it has done is to hasten it. Anyway, best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Once all this is sorted, i reckon manufacturing in some sectors is going to fall off a cliff as companies use the stockpiles that have they've been accumulating. Even a positive Brexit outcome will result in bloodshed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
