Lukewarm Remain voter here. Understand that the Government has to listen to 'the will of the people' and all that.

But for the love of God, now that it's clear what absolute economic suicide we're committing surely we've got to put a halt to it whilst the govt and the opposition work out what the fuck's going on!

AIBU

You obviously have to be in Mensa to see why a disaster is a good thing Hmm

histinyhandsarefrozen · 09/08/2017 12:50

Guys, guys, there have always been disasters!
Leave it to the clever people, they'll sort it!

Do I get in Mensa too? ;)

LaurieMarlow don't hold your breath.

But this is the will of the people, just not you people.
It's not what you want ,I get that, you wish it would stop, yep understand that as well.
Blind faith.
Bad deal, WTA, hardship and unhappiness, yep, which bit do you think is the blind faith?
Also and yet I am still glad we will be out.

LaurieMarlow · 09/08/2017 13:03

Also and yet I am still glad we will be out.

So, no benefit to us whatsoever. Worse deals all round. Less control rather than more control.

Why are you glad? I genuinely don't understand that.

Did you not go and vote, because I did.
The vote came in , oh look I got the result I wanted.
We voted to Leave EU, now you say oh but but but.
My thinking is quiet clear, we started this, we voted for this, this is what is happening.
Why can't you see that, just because it's not what you want, doesn't mean I was wrong, it means if this isn't what people wanted they should have gone out and MADE SURE it didn't happen.
Scream shout, what ever it is happening face up to it.

The whole "remoaners you lost get over it we're leaving you need to stop trying to change that" thing is ridiculous really. If it was OK for UKIP et al to fight to leave the EU, surely it's OK for us to fight to stay, and to fight to get back in if we leave? And if the referendum had gone the other way, no way in hell would the Brexiteers have said "ah well, we lost, we need to get over it and stop complaining".

Doesn't matter the baby will still be born.
Just how do you all intend to stop us leaving.
Hey your all full of it on here, but what PERSONALLY do you intend to do about it?
You could have voted JC in and he would have done this differently, but he lost as well, so there is no other option.
critical thinking..
We voted, We are coming out.
We may not get a deal we use WTA.
We could have voted PM out, she got more votes, managed to form a government. so it's PM in charge.
Isn't it a case of your the ones who can't and won't accept what is going to happen.
That you are screaming and shout about it, but next year when this has all happened and you will still feel the same way, and realize you had no choice.
OK you may vote in Labor next time, but that won't mean they give you the key to the door to get back in, and the EU may not even be the same once we are gone.

Nothing is going to happen, you are not going to get your way.
I am so sorry you can't see this, I know you feel helpless.
If it helps shout at me, but in very little time this will have come to pass.

Or maybe the baby and mother will die, or be left horribly damaged.

We voted, We are coming out.
72.2% of the electorate cast a vote. Just under 52% of those votes were to leave. So, 37% of the electorate voted to leave. We probably are coming out, not least because of people taking the "out means out even if it means ruin we have to leave" approach you are, but I don't think the fact that 37% of the electorate wanted out means the rest of us have to come quietly.

We may not get a deal we use WTA.
Far more eloquent, well informed people have made it very clear what a fucking disaster that would be for us.

We could have voted PM out, she got more votes, managed to form a government. so it's PM in charge.
By bribing the DUP with public money, she did manage that, yes. She's about as in charge these days as the Queen is though.

mummmy2017 · 09/08/2017 14:14

I know we are powerless to change this.
As I said IF it helps You can shout at me.
I am just pointing out that the Government is set on this course.
The EU wants it to happen as fast as possible.
So it's still going to happen, which then means that we have no way out.
Even if we think there must be some way to change it, it's a done thing.
