To want Brexit be reversed

We had a referendum. Then people disrespected it and we had another one, that's how we got Brexit.

You're argument undermines democracy and honestly it's ridiculous.

As someone who voted to leave, I agree op!

@lifeonmars100 then don't have people feeling ignored and hopeless??
If systems are robust and fair the majority will be OK

@Winter2020 why do you think the governments haven't got a handle on immigration?

At this point it would almost be worth having Nigel Farage in power just to prove that Nigel Farage is a snake oil salesman and a charlatan and fucking incapable of delivering anything of any fucking benefit to Joe Public, but I fear that even then the people who voted for him would insist that there was some other very plausible reason why he had fucking failed to deliver on any of his promises which definitely had nothing to do with the fact that he's a fucking fraud.

What you are basically saying is, we don’t need asylum seekers. They arrive regardless even of whether there are any job vacancies. Climate change, a growing number of countries to the extreme right, and global instability will continue to swell the numbers of genuine asylum seekers. Maybe it’s time for some honesty from those who do not want immigration - they don’t want to help genuine asylum seekers, because there are too many of them. Nor do they want to take any responsibility for the causes of mass migration. Obviously, they still want all the advantages of contact with the outside world, but want none of the disadvantages - they want to be globalist when it comes to access to useful resources, and isolationist when it comes to the downsides. They want to be like Trump - fantasising about gaining control off all the resources they need and spitting out the inconvenient humanity getting in the way of the prize.

More irony 😆 🤣 instead, let's teach our future generation to disrespect a legitimate referendum. That will stand them in great stead for their employment.

Soverignty was a mythical argument. Even the onservative government admitted it.

Why is Brexit founded on the politics of blame. Currently blaming politicians for not doing it 'properly'. It always ends up like this when people scrutinise it..

"I'm sick of coke and Pepsi so I'm going to drink piss instead."

😆

Lol. I have always been suspicious of supposedly clever people who join Mensa. It smacks of someone that is desperately trying to prove something.

So you want to show this country as weak and appeasing and go cap in hand? Well wouldn't that be a great green light to see what other policies we would topple over.

I saw this comment somewhere i cant take credit for it but...

"I'm sick of coke and Pepsi so I'm going to drink piss instead."

Nigel Farage hasn't been in power and the governments that have been have betrayed the people by being able to a very large extent to control immigration and choosing not to do so.

I wish it would be reversed too.
My mum lives in EU and I can't even send a postcard or a small parcel of chocolates.
Last time I did it, the parcel was stuck in customs for 7 weeks and she still had to pay £30 extra customs fee on a £8 worth if chocolate!!! A total shit show!!!

Our “sovereignty” has done nothing to improve life in the UK.

In the end OP, there would have to be another referendum and the rejoin side would have to win. It would take a significant change of views by the majority for that to happen.

We moved slightly left with our last general election, much of Europe moved right so I'm not sure I would want to rejoin. And the EU has structural problems of its own. Freedom of movement is not welcome in many countries. Disagreements have surfaced.

However, we can definitely forge better links for young people - university/work exchanges etc, and better trade and defence links. That's where I'd start.

We should immediately surrender our sovereignty because little Timmy wants to freeload at a foreign university to study languages - because, you know, Oxford and Cambridge and Bristol and Glasgow and other universities are incapable of linguistic instruction. P.S. If little Timmy wanted to study languages, he would have been bilingual by the age of 16 just by sitting in his local council-funded library with a Lingua course with tapes/discs, occasionally dipping into the multiple available audio courses to correct/adjust his phonetics.

It should never have been put to a referendum in the first place, but what's done is done.

There's no real political route to reversing it - it's just not going to happen. The best the uk can do now is forge as good relationships with Europe as it can. Obviously that's outside the EU, but within that context.

I don't believe that's true anymore. Look at the polling, the majority think Brexit was the wrong decision.

International students are propping up our unis by paying double the fees of home students, and then being vilified as well by all parties.

No - because the politicians betrayed us - having a mandate and the legal framework to reduce immigration and chose not to do so.

Democracy is a process nit a one time thing.
If it wasnt we'd never have elections. There's no democratic reason to not revisit a decision. To argue that is saying you don't believe in democracy.

And...if you are so sure Brexit was the right thing you wouldn't worry about it bring Subject to a further vote, would you.

She asked me, “Why is it so much harder for us than it was for you, Mum?” And honestly, I didn’t know what to say.

How about "that's how life is, and if you want something really badly you stop moaning and whinging and feeling entitled and get on with it" How about something along the lines of "make those sacrifices to get what you want. Dont expect everything to be handed to you on a platter. " There are millions of determined people across the world who travel to far away countries and migrate legally and work hard legally to achieve what they want, they don't sit at home whinging "oh mama boohoo boohoo, how life was better for the previous generations".ffs

Yes, wish it was different by all means, but we live in a democracy and the majority don't want it the way you and your darling daughter do, so best deal with it like everyone else has to.

Could your child not go to a country outside the EU, there are many to choose from?

You can always pay for your ds to study abroad by yourself - lots of people I know do that. Erasmus is not the only option in the world. In fact, universities in Europe are so cheap that you have to have a very good excuse not to send your son there if he wants to do it.
