I saw this Facebook group for you. m.facebook.com/RemainerNow/

There's also going to be a Remainer Now section at the people's vote march.. Brexit is a complete and utter shitshow and you have every right to be angry about how your vote was stolen from you by liars and cheats.

Brexit hasn't happened yet actually. Maybe ten years in....

The vote if anything was stolen by remainers who instead of getting behind this vote and quickly deciding strategy Etc to get the best deal for the UK has instead done everything to thwart the vote... hold it back, derail it.... hobble Theresa Mays chances of negotiating... etc etc.

If the government had been on war footing... cross party crisis government we would be in a Very different position.

Remain or leave... be Very afraid if leave vote is not honoured.

Today it may be something that makes you happy but one Day you will vote for something and you will realise too late... your vote is worthless.

Oh dear ...threats.

I'd be more afraid of what's going to happen when the penny finally drops...

I was remain but now I'm Leave.

It's amazing isn't it all these remain people who are now leave on line. Lots about on Twitter too. Never met anyone in real life...

If one believes that public referendums give meaningful results (which is a whole other question - there's a reason we've largely moved away from direct democracy), then what's the harm in having another one to check the result?

Leave votes, for whatever reason, cast their vote based on the information available to them at the time. I'm not going to judge anyone here, or imply that anyone voted wrongly. I'm just saying that the vote was made in the light of incomplete information.

Now, 2.5 years later, we have more information about what a Brexit deal would actually look like. Where's the harm in seeing if that's still something people want? Why should we pick one specific vote, at one moment in time, and cast it as sacrosanct? I mean, heck, the PM has made parliament vote on her deal twice already, and is gearing up for a third go round. Is that democratic?

Why is this not in the BREXIT section?

TheSultanofPingu · 15/03/2019 19:46

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 15/03/2019 20:59
