A lie. Just like the many lies that you Leavers and your media peddled two years ago. Few objectors want to overturn the 2016 vote. Many believe that MPs should have a vote on the final terms of the exit. Thank god that the Internet didn’t exist 1914-18, as no doubt the likes of Burneside would have trolled WWI conscientious objectors and called them “traitors”.  Whilst at the same time ...

Remain MPs and their supporters are attempting to overturn one of the largest votes this country has seen in modern times, "traitors" is entirely appropriate, may be even a tad too polite.

Someone who, on this very thread, calls MP’s “traitors”, isn’t really in a position to tell others to grow up.

Burnside, yet again showing his true self

Dominic Raab, fervent Brexiteer,  said real livelihoods are at stake, not me. A thought: if you are telling someone to grow up then you are implying that they are a child. Which is not a very nice thing to say, is it? Bordering on name calling perhaps?

Here's a thought, let's implement the decision taken on 23rd June 2016 to leave the EU, then in maybe a decade we can revisit it to see if it has worked out or not. After all, we had to wait 40 years for another rethink after the 1975 referendum, in which time myriad treaties were brought into force without any of us having a say in whether we agreed with them. Two years on and Remainers ...

@B/S - as I have said before. More information has come out in the past 26 months or so since the referendum as to what leaving the EU might actually mean. Voters are now seeing through the spin they were spun (duplicity?) by the Leave campaign back in 2016. As Dominic Raab, the Brexit Secretary, said only very recently: real livelihoods are at stake.

To know that we know what we know, and that we do not know what we do not know, that is true knowledge.

Before the referendum the terms "soft" and "hard" Brexit did not exist, it was just Brexit. "Soft Brexit" is something dreamt up by Remainers as a way of keeping us in the EU by the back door, just as May has proposed in her Chequers document.  It won’t wash, voters can see straight through her duplicity. We are not negotiating with the EU, they just want abject surrender from the UK.  ...

A No Deal  hard Brexit for you then? With all the consequences that such a scenario would bring? Perhaps people and businesses need to start thinking through just what that might mean.
