I have a brilliant idea could you just stop trolling?

It's not trolling. Sometimes one silly idea deserves to be answered by another silly idea. I think the people have spoken and every time people vote there ought to be consequences.

In Denmark, which is supposed to be a democracy, the public were asked to vote whether or not to become part of the EU. There was a resounding NO. So the government had another referendum and they kept on having them until they reached the magic 51%. So I suppose my answer is that people can be swayed to the 'other side' or just give in out of sheer exasperation.

For it :clap2:

That is really interesting.

I think another referendum here on this would be likely absurd,however in light of the type of misinformed campaign, and now seeing the after effects following the vote, it could be interesting to see what another came up with as to the result.

Voting in hindsight, rather than in the dark may not be that bad a thing.

Scotland may veto it and force one.

they can't actually veto. They can withold consent, but it doesn't equate to the same thing as their consent is not required to action it.

For sure Kizzy, Nicola Sturgeon is not going to leave any stone unturned in order to find a way if she can to veto this, or influence Westminster MPs to vote it down.

She is formidable and not to be underestimated.

You sure?

Nicola Sturgeon has appeared to suggest the Scottish Parliament could effectively block the UK’s exit from the European Union.

It comes after Scotland voted by 62 per cent to Remain in the European Union while Britain, as a whole, voted by 52 per cent to 48 per cent to leave Europe.

yes, i'm sure

She seems fairly sure there is something she has come across that can possibly be used in the devolved powers bills to Scotland as to constitutional issues.

No doubt she will have a good and strong legal team looking more deeply into that possibility.

Its up to individuals to get off their arses and research not rely on busses and what is written in them

If you would rathert watch GOT or play lotto than Google 'what is the EU'


Then FU

Ireland went to a second referendum only few years back..it's not unheard of

Is there any logic behind your comment then as it appears the Scottish first minister thinks differently? Or are you not listening because she's an expert, I know some people have just had enough of experts.

As to the euro.

It could be legitimately done and this vote was really close too, if no one can agree on the way forward,who knows Cherie.

Yes but they didn't, and that is what in part makes it a total farce,and really the basis of my point. The few dupe the masses into furthering their agenda and then when the public suddenly realised that they're not getting what they voted for, they are "too late". The masses opinion then changes but the few have already taken their snapshot and use it to their advantage - in full knowledge that their action now no longer represents the will of the majority.

I just keep hearing a lot of "OMG can't you just accept majority opinion". But what if it simply isn't? What if it WAS a majority opinion based on people believing "facts and figures" that have already proven to be fantasy? None of it is real, it's the illusion of input. Smoke and mirrors of the powerful designed to win a "game" and get that snapshot opinion poll at just the right second to further machinations that have nothing at all to do with what people thought they were voting on. I don't understand why more leave voters aren't furious about the process, about being so blatantly and unashamedly used, even if they still believe the outcome was for the best. I don't understand why we're all still playing along with the list process that makes all of us so, so small. If anything, we should all be United in disgust by the very process, the fact that no one - NO ONE - on either side of any of these votes will just give us the facts and the figures and let us truly decide.

Maybe we're all just so blinded by the disappointment / excitement of the result every time that we fail to stop and question the rest of it.

Yes, and you are right to be sure BOTS.

Oh it's ok, I think someone asked bob down the dog track....Apparently it can't be done.

You speak the truth that politicians deceive the GBP with lies in order to secure their support on proposals, but when it comes to the 'EU Referendum' and any suggestion that alleged lies any 'Leave' politicians told 'Leave' voters, is reason enough to contest the legality of the Referendum, or justification for holding a further one, then, unfortunately, we are on very shaky ground, because:

1) I can personally PROVE that the 'Remain' campaigners lied on EVERY SINGLE ISSUE which formed the WHOLE case to remain.
m
2) We would NOT even be in the EU in the first place, had Sir Edward Teeth, I mean Heath, not LIED TO us when he took us in to what was then The Common Market', after which, we were lied to again in Wilson's 1975 Referendum, when we voted to stay in.

So, in my opinion, there is nothing to be gained from anyone using any alleged 'Leave' Campaign lies in order to try to justify any ridiculous notion of any second Referendum.

i'm basing it on knowledge that i have. Is that a problem?

Any other member's knowledge is a problem if it doesn't fit the viewpoint of the one's questioning it BOTS - you ought to know that. :laugh:

So you know more than the Scottish first minister, is that what you are saying? Because that's what it sounds like you are saying.

I know more than the Scottish First Minister - I know what DEMOCRACY is.

That is a lovely idea. Unrealistic, but lovely.

Oh two of you are experts now?..Oh sorry, experts are so last season.
