AIBU? According to Nigel Farage, I am. Nick Clegg, I'm not. Please can we just have another vote to see?

Didn't Farage change his mind today and say he was warming to the idea?

Newtothismumthing1 · 11/01/2018 22:34

Yes YABU, don’t make us debate and vote again....(big sigh of exhaustion)

ginswinger · 11/01/2018 22:46

I would quite like another vote please. If it goes for Brexit then so be in but if not, let's have a bit of common sense and make reforms from the insode.

DoubleAces · 11/01/2018 22:47

No, the vote has been done.

GreenFingeredGardener7 · 11/01/2018 22:48

Done and dusted.

Bluntness100 · 11/01/2018 22:49

Actually on this one I do think there should be another vote.

Because I think no one had the faintest fucking idea what they were voting for. Even the politicians didn't know. Plus it was advisory only.

I don't think we know even now what we'd be voting for , but once they figure it out, then yes I think we should have another vote.

SheRaaarghPrincessOfPower · 11/01/2018 22:50

Being discussed on QT right now

WitchesHatRim · 11/01/2018 22:52

Shall we have best of 10.....

This is all about Farage staying relevant and centre of attention. Nothing more and nothing less.

Gingernaut · 11/01/2018 22:55

Please Mrs May! Can we have one more?

TheQueenOfWands · 11/01/2018 22:55

They should just play Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock.

I'm not traipsing out in the rain again.

Aitishoe · 11/01/2018 22:57

If only... It feels like we are sleepwalking towards a disaster and can't do anything to change it. It is driving me mad.

IamtheDevilsAvocado · 11/01/2018 22:57

Better to have another vote, than crash out of EU

FundayMorning · 11/01/2018 22:59

And if we vote out again? Then what?

BigChocFrenzy · 11/01/2018 23:00

This is just Farage being desperate for attention

What'll he try next ? Streaking ?

outofmydepth45 · 11/01/2018 23:05

I voted remain but believe 100% you can not just have referendums until you get the answer you want pointless. Farage just wants some media coverage

BigChocFrenzy · 11/01/2018 23:10

Farage

But I DO want another referendum
meditrina · 11/01/2018 23:12

Agree completely with outofmydepth

TammySwansonTwo · 11/01/2018 23:14

Of course there should be another vote, given that the last was predicated on complete and utter bollocks.

TammySwansonTwo · 11/01/2018 23:16

Oh come on. Some people were voting based on nonsense printed on the side of buses, nonsense that was immediately disowned the followlong day. Frankly I'm amazed it's been allowed to get this far, as every passing day reveals another Brexit catastrofuck.

Homemenu1 · 11/01/2018 23:22

Some people were voting based on nonsense printed on the side of buses

And people vote in all elections on nonsense spouted by campaigners printed on the side of the bus.

We can have another vote only if we can have another vote on the general election (because that didn't go my way) and why we are at it let's vote on abolishment of the monarchy.

Democracy at work (only if it goes my way)

meditrina · 11/01/2018 23:23

The time to counter the 'nonsense' was before the vote, not after it.

IMightMentionGriddlebone · 11/01/2018 23:26

We can have another vote only if we can have another vote on the general election (because that didn't go my way)

But you will have another vote on the general election. We ask the public what they think every five years or less, because people change their minds.

That's what democracy is about!

toomanycreambuns · 11/01/2018 23:35

I don't. The country has decided. End of.

PiffleandWiffle · 11/01/2018 23:51

Oh Fuck Off!

We wouldn't be (more) of a laughing Stock at all would we.

Europe wouldn't take the chance to stick the boot in financially & punish us for rocking the boat at all would they?

It could well still be a leave vote given that the EU attitude & contempt has alienated a lot of UK people & made them "see the light".

Plus, I'd rather our politicians ( all of them) stopped fucking around & worked together to strike a deal that benefits the whole country rather than playing their pathetic, point scoring games....

PiffleandWiffle · 11/01/2018 23:52

We ask the public what they think every five years or less, because people change their minds.

Yeah, GE is one thing, a referendum to be in/out of Europe isn't something you continually poll people about.

Once it's done, it's done......
