Vicky - For the record I voted and campaigned for Remain, but have not gone for this second people's vote, as it won't work.

What I wanted, but it never happened, was for the first vote to be declared nul and void. With all the lies by the Leave side and the violation of election rules regarding finance, now proven, had this been any other election, then the electoral court would have thrown out the result, as they have in the past with some bye-elections and ordered it re-run.

Unfortunately the leaders of the Remain side never sought this legal challenge...

Well yes. I don't really get why that wasn't pursued tbh.

I must have you mixed up with someone else, sorry about that. Was sure you had been posting about how great a no deal would be. Unless you were but were pisstaking or something

I was being, ironic, sarcastic and satirical. Showing how bad it is by showing it en extremis, in the process caricaturing the extreme leavers, which watching the news today, they seem to be adequately doing that all by themselves.

But we are where we are

Honestly I think one of the most damning things about TiBB (and maybe the UK in general at the moment?) is that it wasn't clear whether or not Sticks' over-the-top Brexit celebrations and songs were real or satire. At first you think "haha this has to be poking fun" and then you start to wonder, because it wouldn't be abnormal for people to be doing that genuinely at this point!

As the creators of South Park put it; It's difficult to make satire now that "satire has become reality" ... ...

Well yeah, its getting harder and harder to recognise satire because so many actual opinions come over exactly the same, its scary really!

Sorry for thinking you had lost your mind a bit sticks, I honestly didn't click on and thought you were just one of the 'brexit means brexit!!!!11' type people

One way I work is to put forward a ridiculously extreme proposition and see how many people agree with it. It can be frightening and depressing how many out there will salute the flags I run up the proverbial flag pole.

One example I came up with was at the time when there was that plot to blow up aircraft with liquid explosives. I postulated to one guy, that as cloth can soak up liquid, and by inference a liquid explosive, then people should fly completely naked. And the guy went along with it, saying something along the lines of, if that's what it takes!!!

Lets hear it for Naturist Airlines, guaranteed to be secure flying...

This is exactly what I was predicting Boris would have to do, and what will happen so we can leap gloriously free from the EU with no scuzzy deals to a golden age where we get Ł350m A WEEK for the NHS. Where all the EU nationals here are summarily dismissed from their jobs, as they will have no rights whatsoever especially the right to work or remain in our green and pleasant land so Brits can have them - Full employment at last British Jobs for British Workers ONLY - (EU Nationals rights were in that hated evil EU Withdrawal agreement that we have been spared from ratifying)

et al.. .

Where is the peition to suspend parliament until 04 November so we can crash - sorry leap gloriously free of the EU (Hitler's Plan B so I heard on one radio programme) with no stinking deals without pesky MP's trying to block No Deal.

If you MP does not support NO DEAL, Deselect them, tar and feather them, brand them as traitors and run them out of town...

Kick out all EU Nationals after rounding them into camps

Sorry, just need to wipe the foam from my mouth
That was a Party Political Broadcast by the Brexit Party, UKIP and other hangers on from the BNP...
