Brexit Arms

[time4chocolate]

Not much else to say really 🍷🍷🍷

It's a fucking study that you wheeled out to try and goad upset, frightened remainers.

It doesn't paint you in a great light, tbf. Or was it just 'Bantz'?

'Hang on, I'll just have a little dig around'....

You've already said you think I'm 'beneath contempt' Miljah.

I have no wish to communicate with your goady-fuckery any further

I find the psychology of it all fascinating - the various motivations for voting either way, the reaction after the ref, the psychology of political strategy & marketing a message, the type, speed & quality of processing different twists & turns, the group psychology as well as individual

I agree with you on this, but not on the best way forward, see you at the other end

Shall I have a little dig around and see if I can find the research that demonstrated that the majority of Leave voters are poor and undereducated? In the interests of 'balance?

Miljah, direct your complaints to the LSE please

Democracy relies on people not simply shrugging their shoulders and accepting defeat.

Miljah.

Are you you saying there is something wrong with being Poor and uneducated and still having a vote?

Democracy relies on losers' consent.

We've had this discussion before on here with handy links & everything.

It actually culminated in an anti-Brexit poster slagging me off for being a single mum on benefits 🤷🏻‍♀️

The kinder, gentler side of the Brexit divide...

Why does she pretend not to be here and then explode into the room as soon as we say something (to each other) that she doesn't like the sound of?

Seems to be a theme dusty.

Miljah seems to think it's somehow going to be 'insulting' to find a study that leavers are poor and uneducated???

It's so depressing

I neither know nor care Greenish

Not worthy of my time or energy 🤷🏻‍♀️

Lol sunny 😂

Imagine being that needy!!

To be fair, it literally took me only a couple of seconds to find the article - google is very good!

Typed in 'LSE sore loser' and it was the first hit 🤷🏻‍♀️

Megan Of the things that worry me, Brexit is probably only third on the list anyway - rise of populism is far worse.
I agree that the rise of populism is very worrying, but I also see a distinct connection between populism and Brexit. Don't you? Obligatory LSE article to support my theory

Oh God, has it been reported back to H/Q?

That's the sort of thing I find interesting as well twofingers

I've def read that one before a while back

It links to what I've been saying about Cummings's strategy over the last few months wrt shaping the narrative - 'get Brexit done' & Parliament vs the people' have become part of commentators' typical speech & from there embed into the psyche of everyone listening/watching.

The 'other side' are parroting it as well without realising so it becomes even more embedded in different spheres, not just the 'Brexiter bubble'

I could understand them being pissed off if we'd gone onto their thread talking about it.....but they don't even need to come and read what's being talked about here.

Just 😊 & 👋 Greenish...

... 😊 & 👋

As Time4 said before, they're trying desperately to get the threads pulled & to get a reaction from us so they can report us & get us banned 🤷🏻‍♀️

The demise of unpopulism is highly regrettable. Those were the days.

Democracy relies on losers' consent.

Not in the way that you mean it here.

Democracy requires the loser(s) of an election to accept the result of a democratic process and not to use illegal or unconstitutional methods to overturn the result.

But they can and should continue to oppose policies the disagree with, as long as they do so legally. Democracy relies on losers continuing to fight for their cause and their beliefs, and to seek a democratic mandate for them at the next election.

It's a shame that the recent post about me has been deleted already

I prefer when they're left up so everyone can see them
