A terrorist killed Jo Cox in the lead up to the vote, god knows how bad things would get if Brexit was cancelled.

also this though.. somehow cannot see a lot of these leave voters being content with marches and such. There WILL be violence and riots. Of course thats not to say all leave voters are neanderthals, but it does appear to attract..unsavoury people who are just thinly hiding racism and such..or not even hiding it anymore as they feel emboldened to be public with it. Honestly, since the vote, loads of people I considered 'friends' or close to friends have shown their true colours.suddenly they are all 'kill any refugee who turns up here' and such :umm2: Its frightening.

Should have started before the vote. There should have been viable plans for both possible outcomes, and then plans ontop of plans for if Europe rejected what we want (which was always going to be likely really..we wanted all the good parts and none of the bad) and any way any of that could possibly go. Before the vote even happened. Cameron ****ed it up, then May made it worse. Idiots. I also don't think anyone else would have done any better tbh. And all of this, because Cameron crapped his pants about Farage gaining a bit popularity :umm2:

If she announced Brexit was off, I'd be wondering what the **** she was thinking because the result of a democratic vote was very clearly, leave.

bots 25-02-2019 01:05 PM

i'm not angry at the result of the ref, i'm angry at parliament for wilfully ****ing it up. 2 years was ample time to sort at a minimum a safety net that business could operate under. Nobody should give a toss whats in the deal agreed now because whatever it is can be changed later, to suggest otherwise is complete fiction. We should have agreed a skeleton framework and then built upon that. This whole thing has been wilful neglect from parliament.

cant see that happening at all, I think most people both leave and remain are fed up to the back teeth of the bungling and incompetence and sheer arrogance of some of our MPs and want a resolution either out or in but not this limbo we have been in for the past 2 years

chuff me dizzy 25-02-2019 01:23 PM

You're in for a shock then, because even if the disastrous brexiteers eventually get their way, when they wake up to the reality of a post EU Britain, what this group of non-emotional, insular, thinking people will need, is a group to blame for the fact that they didn't end up with rainbows and ponies.

Commonwealth brown people will get it, as will remainers for sabotaging the deal they could get. none of it, will of course, be their fault. They voted and they won, everything else is secondary.

That's like saying all remainers are quinoa munching, sandal wearing liberals.

Now that's the kind of tea spilling post that I've been missing so much.

I personally think the amount of actual violence or rioting would be minimal. There sure would be a LOT of angry facebook statuses though. Most of these people (and to be honest, most people in general) are all bark.

We should go French.

You're far more optimistic than I am.

I don't think my ultra Tory middle aged parents fit that description :laugh:

To be honest the public should riot and protest if their will is ignored...

Quinoa is nutritious, so people who eat it must be good at making decisions.

Exactly. Whenever Brexit is discussed, anyone who voted to remain paint a picture of people who voted to leave that doesn't look like anyone I know who voted leave. You can't pigeon hole over 17 million people just to suit your 'remain' agenda. I'm speaking generally there, not aiming it at you specifically.

Maybe... but to say all remainers eat quinoa would be like saying all 'leave' voters are middle-aged Tories. That's my point. I mean, almost every constituency in the North East of England voted to leave... do we think they're all Little Englander Conservatives? Of course not.

Watch as the country falls to pieces with the rioting that the government will have no right to stop and the lack of public ever having a say in anything again as once parliament are allowed to cancel one result they can cancel any they want

Quinoa is vile, I don’t care if it’s nutritious, it tastes horrible (although team remain x)

Yes if they cancel the result of this referendum who knows which referendum result they'll cancel next! Which one do you think it'll be? :worry:

They could easily cancel elections or anything that the public vote on it's how other countries started
