The ENTIRE 'AUSTERITY' measures have been a dupe - there is ENOUGH money collected from our over-taxed hard-pressed people, it just NEEDS US TO ENSURE THAT IT IS SPENT PROPERLY ON WHAT IT SHOULD BE - US.

We will continue to be ****ed in the arse by these same people, from these same families and same schools, who care nothing for the wellbeing of the individual. We WON'T end this style of government. We WON'T be able to ensure that the money is spent properly. We WILL be at the mercy of rampant capitalists who will strip us for every penny and then work us yet harder.

Do you think they are going to cut tax? Or that we're going to see our crumbling towns rejuvinated by the money being better spent? Or that it will go to he NHS, or education, or our other public services? Is that something you truly, in your heart of hearts, see on the horizon? ...will you even bother to look into what's going to happen to that money now, so long as it isn't going to the "EU gravy train"? Because I know it won't be back in our pockets. I 100% know it as certainly as you know any of your own "facts". I think you know it, too, I just frankly think you'd be happier to see the money burnt than sent to Europe. Last edited by user104658; 28-06-2016 at 09:36 PM. |

It is a failed and failing festering nest of corruption. OUR money has disproprtionately kept it afloat and on EVERY single FACT which the Remain camp relied on to support their claim that the EU was 'beneficial to us' was a huge PROVABLE lie - which is the idea behind this thread T.S. I sincerely hope to prove as much on this thread as time allows. As to your contention that we cannot enforce a government which is open and honest and 'for the peope' - WE CAN T.S. There are probably more brains on this forum than among some of our MP's - who could not secure jobs as dustbin men if it were not for the meal ticket which is Westminster - and if we all resoved to campaign over the net or whatever, that will be picked up on, believe me, and something revolutionary COULD happen. It will NOT happen if we are defeatist and overwhelmed.

The only thing you exposed is that you don't know the difference between an opinion and a fact. It's just a really weird campaign post that's one week too late. It's pointless.
Like I said before, the campaign is over and we're in for a ****storm. Focus on that instead of campaigning for something that has been and gone. |

Not conservatives, not blairites, not UKIP ....they have all proved they have no clue how to proceed other than telling us that the poor will get considerably poorer, how nobody guessed that is beyond me mind you, as none of those parties would know the truth if it kneed them in the nads! The ONLY man with a plan is Corbyn!

I believe that we need a new system - a Government drawn of individuals from all parties. Farage and Corbyn would have their place in such a Government, but a 'coalition' of THE best politicians could make THE difference. I am pig-sick of the same tired tripe and the BS which spews forth from ALL their mouths come a time when they want something from us - extra to the power and privilege and wealth which we already give them.

Is that being defeatist? Probably, but it's also realistic and firmly based on literally ALL of the evidence... there is no indication that we will change this. I don't have faith in the public. I honest-to-my-socks believe that 75% of the public is unintelligent, pig-ignorant and easily lead and will continue to vote for whatever it is The Sun happens to be telling them to vote for that week. There have been three major votes here in the last year - that is exactly what has happened in every single one of them. I know that's not a popular opinion and people get butt-hurt over it, "U can't tell dat peoples are teh stoopid dat is rong!" and Ammi will tell me off and stuff, but god damn it they just straight up are. Most people. Stupid. You know it. Sigh. It's not even that I can't appreciate the challenge or the sense of adventure here Kirk. I said in another thread, when I was a student in my early 20's I would actually have been all for this. Genuinely all for it. I know that the EU is an elitist shambles and that's the sort of thing I hate with a passion. I just also know that UK domestic politics is no different. Unencumbered by responsibility I'd be all for fighting that and hoping that it could be changed, even if the chance is small, I'd say "**** it let's give it a damned good shot". I don't have that luxury now. And my gut feeling is that we have damaged the country, irreparably. We won't get the sort of trade deals we would like, we won't have much of a seat at the world table for long, and every single normal individual in this country will be worse off - and some cripplingly, disastrously so - for no real political gain. Living under scummy overlords. Doesn't matter if they're in London or Brussels or a dome on the Moon. |

The campaign is over, you are beating a dead horse. Your side won and now you've got to accept the ramifications of that. The fantasy that Brexit was peddling is not going to happen and living in the recent past won't change that. Stop campaigning and accept the situation we're currently in. |

I hate to be a pain but do you have a source for those facts?

If brexit was a viable option, where was the preparation?... why was there no system in place so we hit the ground running?
Every single leave advocate that was bleating on relentlessly was suddenly a stunned mullet, they still are.

The reason there's no "Brexit plan" is because the Remain camp (David Cameron) BANNED the Civil Service from making one.

One of the things that baffles me is why the young people supported the EU. The young people are usually the dreamers who want to fight corruption and not tolerate (or even embrace) it. The older generation is usually the one that doesn't want to rock the boat. Quote:

I think you should reread this sentence because I hope, upon reflection, you realize how silly this sounds. Losing the referendum is a MASSIVE deal to them.
