Lol.
But the Electorate see it as being told they are too stupid to vote.
Wait till they vote against the ones who think they know best .
The UK are known for saying FU to this sort of thing .
Corbyn will never be PM and all we have to do is keep him in as Labour leader and Bobs your uncle....

@mummmy2017 - I 100% want the UK to stay in the EU. I’m Belgian but living the UK since I was five. I’m very glad I’ve kept my EU passport and will continue to enjoy the rights and privileges of being an EU citizen whereas my friends in the UK will loose their futures.

TBH I think those relying on Cobyn to get us out of this mess are the crazy ones.

Playing the long game! PMSL - if that’s the case it’s so long he hasn’t even worked out what the game even is.

He’s not offering anything different to the current mess; he wants a deal but hasn’t said what he’d give up for one

jasjas1973 · 07/09/2019 09:35

Wait till something you disagree with is the issue, your setting up presidence for your vote not to count

I don't think you really give a fcuk about that.

mummmy2017 · 07/09/2019 09:35

Parker you have no more idea of post Brexit than anyone else.
You also have written a country of 65million ish off.
Boris is just saying what half this country is thinking.
Get us out of here.

time4chocolate · 07/09/2019 09:36

He has no plans, just threats

And neither does any one else have a plan which is why I said it’s more likely we will end up with no deal.

Actually I do care that the people we voted to voice are views are not standing by what their own constitutes asked of them. You need to trust this person. Hammond has just been deselected for this reason. And labour strongholds are going to vote Tory so their will is upheld.

Parker231 · 07/09/2019 09:41

Mummmy - the UK will loose its frictionless trade and free movement, amongst numerous other benefits - what will it gain?

mummmy2017 · 07/09/2019 09:43

We gain being out of the EU.
You can still travel.
You can still trade.
Just a different way .
Oh and we won't have to foot the bill for EU crap.

time4chocolate · 07/09/2019 09:43

There was an opportunity to do that months ago, but it was obstructed by Leavers

I’m not denying there was, but since that doesn’t now seem to be available/acceptable then I have to take the only other option if I want to leave the EU and that’s no deal. We are where we are.

jasjas1973 · 07/09/2019 09:45

And labour strongholds are going to vote Tory so their will is upheld

Then that is good, it's how our system should be, i wont like another con govt but i will be represented in parliament via the opposition,
but with a referendum, i have no opposition voice, i am told to STFU, traitor, remoaner, enemy of the people, go live abroad, snowflake and most bizarrely "get behind brexit"

FreshFreesias · 07/09/2019 09:46

The silent majority are fed up. I don't think the establishment will ever let us leave.

I spoke to a wealthy Remain friend who said tearfully; 'but it is the poor who will suffer the most!'

How ironic, I replied, that it was the working class who in the main, voted for Brexit.

'Oh, but they didn't know what they were voting for. How can a greengrocer, say, understand this kind of thing?'

The most patronising thing I've ever heard from someone who hasn't given their minimum wage cleaner a pay rise in 20 years.
This Remainer's family live in tax exile in Portugal. The EU has done so much for Portuguese 'peasants', she trills. Plus she raves about all the brand new shiny roads the EU (otherwise known as hard pressed British tax payers) have paid for, which obv. make life so much more convenient for wealthy tax avoiders to get around.

Fabulous darling!

Only 25% of the country voted Leave. Not β€œhalf”.

SistemaAddict · 07/09/2019 09:47

Long game or not, he's being cautious and biding his time. Like pp said, he knows now is not the right time for an election. I'm no fan of Corbyn but he's finally doing what he should have done all along and fighting. Surely if he really wanted no deal he'd have said yes to a GE now, not once the bill was passed?

Parker231 · 07/09/2019 09:48

Mummmy - you and 000m’s of leave voters loose any credibility as you can’t articulate why the UK should leave or see how difficult it is going to be for businesses to trade. Some of the more deprived areas of the UK have benefited hugely from EU initiatives and grants. So many people are going to loose their jobs, it’s going to take at least a generation to recover - is that what you want for your DC’s?

merrymouse · 07/09/2019 09:49

But the Electorate see it as being told they are too stupid to vote.

The problem isn't the stupidity of the electorate, it's the dishonesty of politicians.

It was reasonable to assume that no politician would hold a referendum without believing that both options were viable, but the referendum was a con.

Nobody, including Farage, thought Leave would win, so nobody bothered to present a viable option for Leaving. The point of the referendum was never to find out what the public wanted. Cameron wanted to silence dissenters in the Conservative party. Farage and Banks wanted to cause trouble and make some money.

Demanding 'No Deal' because you want to 'take back control' is like demanding to go on a luxury cruise after it's been established that the only available ship is full of holes.

The thing you were told you could have doesn't exist.

jasjas1973 · 07/09/2019 09:49

Yes major constitutional change should nt happen on 36% of the electorate dictating that the rest of us should fuck off and have no more say.

ContinuityError · 07/09/2019 09:52

jasjas1973 the checks and balances were left out because it was only an advisory referendum.

merrymouse · 07/09/2019 09:52

I have to take the only other option if I want to leave the EU and that’s no deal.

Why, if 'No Deal' fundamentally gives more control to the EU?

merrymouse · 07/09/2019 09:53

You can still travel.

After 'No Deal', you literally can't without the agreement of the EU.

jasjas1973 · 07/09/2019 09:53

@FreshFreesias

Did you get that off the Britain First FB page?

Your friend is a tax exile, lives in Portugal (which isn't a tax haven) employs a cleaner in the UK (presumably or how would you know?) and hasn't increased their wages for 20 years despite numerous min wage increases..... not a convincing story is it?

merrymouse · 07/09/2019 09:55

Oh and we won't have to foot the bill for EU crap.

The UK would be negotiating from a weaker position. There is no reason to believe that 'No Deal' means paying less money to the EU.

jasjas1973 · 07/09/2019 09:55

Absolutely!!! Advisory only, no legal basis whatsoever.

Parker231 · 07/09/2019 09:56

Inside the university sector, EU funding supported 8,864 direct jobs, Β£836m in economic output and a contribution of nearly Β£577m to GDP.

In industries outside the university sector, EU research funding to UK universities generated more than 10,190 full-time-equivalent jobs, Β£1.02bn of output and a contribution of nearly Β£503m to GDP.

The three UK industries that benefited most from this knock-on impact were: business activities (more than 2,604 full-time-equivalent jobs); wholesale and retail trade (more than 2,048 full-time-equivalent jobs); and manufacturing (over 1,259 full-time-equivalent jobs).

mummmy2017 · 07/09/2019 09:58

So if a second referendum is forced on us and believe me it will be leave with an even bigger margin as it is now about Parliament not doing as the Electorate requested, how do you square that one?
