Gina Miller, the businesswoman who brought the High Court challenge against Theresa May's right to trigger Article 50, is taking another stand against a "hard Brexit" by launching a tactical voting initiative.
The pro-EU campaigner has set up a crowdfunding page for the group Best for Britain, which has already raised more than £100,000. Ms Miller, with a group of other pro-EU campaigners, is using the money to campaign for tactical voting in order to avoid a "hard Brexit". It aims to eventually back MPs "who campaign for a real final vote on Brexit, including rejecting any deal that leaves Britain worse off". https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.tel...t-theresa/amp/ https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.ind...831.html%3Famp |

Apparently it IS OK to play games with democracy, if it fits your own agenda. |

No doubt if she had the power she would personally overturn the referendum result in her belief she knows best. That woman suffers with Delusions of grandeur. Last edited by Brillopad; 21-04-2017 at 09:44 AM. |

Hard Brexit, Soft Brexit is actually a myth devised by those who can't accept Brexit and need to hold onto something EU.
It's so simple really, I leave your house after a visit. I don't leave but think I'm entitled to the table lamp, an armchair and the knitted lady toilet roll holder. This terrible fear of leaving is alarming, particularly since none of the doom and gloom already forecast has happened. I'm sure it won't be all smooth sailing, The world isn't going to end when we leave either.

It is a big step, too big for some who fear the short-term and long-term consequences and as such will focus on all the doom and gloom mongering from people they assume will know more about it than them. It is understandable but this is a chance to do things our own way and take back our independence. I have to say from the behaviour I have seen from these Europe chiefs I think the sooner we get out from under their thumbs the better. They are nothing more than bullying dictators trying to instil fear and uncertainty into the British people to get their own way based on their own fear the rest of Europe will follow suit if Britain succeeds in their independence. Their power will then be gone. It's always about power. Last edited by Brillopad; 21-04-2017 at 12:16 PM. |

No, what is truely undemocractic is that the Daily Mail gets away with slander and libel, and sway the opinion of this country, the same with The Sun, and dozens of other newspapers, Newspapers should be bound by a set of ethics and impartiality.

Still not the same as trying to overturn a public vote in my opinion. |

News,or what should be real news, is not to be found in most so called 'news'papers. I agree a whole new set of ethics need to be applied to Newspapers. |
