The Brexit Arms goes forth! All welcome. Leavers, Remainers, Couldn't give a Tossers, & openly gay athletes.

Welcome

Yes I've found that too. Leavers all seem to have a bit more spark about them.
Remainers are pretty dull.

well my DH is a remainer Surfer and he isn't dull....but there are certain common things I find about remainers perhaps more scared? Cautious? Narrow outlooks?

I suppose I can concede your correct - less sparky

Self righteousness oh my god

Sense of enormous personal virtue and superiority

Amazement if anyone asks them to explain what's so great about the eu

Not forgetting the intensely irritating 'I feel European!'

even if they hadn't mentioned it before the referendum

rainy our neighbour had a "European beer" to commiserate the Brexit vote, I felt like saying " come into the garden and say hi to DH he is quart British, quart, x and half x"

I feel European, I literally feel it every night and day and whats more I LIKE IT.

Oh god yeah, the puke inducing 'I feel European' they wouldn't last 5 minutes in Bulgaria or Hungary.

The entire system derives its legitimacy from the majority vote

No it bloody disna!

Bitofacow has it right:

"In a direct democracy an MP would have to act as directed by their constituents, perhaps via referenda. In a representative democracy the constituents hand over responsibility to the MP who votes in accordance with their own, the MPs, beliefs.

Therefore an MP is not required to vote in a way the majority of constituents would agree with, unless the MP wants to.

MPs are accountable to constituents via the ballot box at elections.

In effect we hand over responsibility for decision making to our MPs. Yet another reason the referendum was a farce."

And, it seems, the judges agreed.

Mine's a litre of Löwenbräu, thanks,

How the fuck is an MP elected

Ermigaahd it is literally un fucking believable

With my colleagues it's automatic racism

Brexit = racism

Autumn bring the bottle there's a love

Here you are, WW.

HTH.

They're obesssed with racism. I wonder what they make of all the black & Asian people who voted leave?
They never answer that one.

Going back to the idea that HOC should vote on Article 50. It would seem as if the remainers are so keen on this in my mind simply because they think that the type of Brexit will be debated. Correct me if I'm wrong but I really don't think there is any way shape or form in the statement - Parliament should vote on the enacting of Article 50- anything saying that 'but before the vote you can also decide what type of Brexit we want'. The debate as far as I can see is about enacting Article 50, nothing else.
What type of Brexit has nothing at all to do with it and I really think they are all pining their hopes on this (apart from the illusion that the vote would be for remain) and that is why they are all so keen to have this parliamentary vote and debate. No other reason. All this talk of the sovereignty of parliament is all balls.

I a, actually rather drunk, I have necked too much prosecco

Goodness me its legitimacy all seems to be predicated on majority voting

Well stap me vitals

Bit of a struggle for you to type out was it?

Haha mango! I'm going to bed xxxx

with my phone

Okay. Genuine question here.

I ummed and I ahhed and I voted Leave.

Now, that woman on QT has caused s bit of chaos.

Does she have a point and will this lead to an end of specialised specialists I healthcare

OR

Will it lead to the UK being able to accept immigrants on merits rather than whether they are European or not.

Dh thinks the latter.

Yeah, me too.

Night all.
