I'm listening to LBC right now. There's a labour Leave voter on and she's saying it's disgusting what's happening. "They just cant accept the referendum result and are stopping Boris from carrying out what 17.4 million people voted for. And I say that as some one who voted Remain" (democracy respecting remainers do exist)
Is she called Elizabeth?

Previously, Remoaners, when it suited them, claimed, "a tiny tiny group of far right extremist brexiteers, the ERG, are driving their agenda on the entire conservative party, the government and the whole brexit debate. There's only a handful of them yet they are not allowing Teresa may to come up with anything else other than their narrow version of brexit"

Then all of a sudden, when trying to claim it wasn't votes of the remoaners and Labour that voted against May's new EU treaty, AKA Her Deal. The ERG manages to some how gain hundreds of new members that made the difference!!!

;)
Arithmetic not your strong point either. The reason the ERG drove the Tory Brexit agenda is that after the 2017 election debacle May knew she needed the vote of just about every Tory MP to get a deal through. So the biggest organised group in the Tory party had the biggest say. Unfortunately they betrayed her when it came to voting the deal through.

All I do is read stuff from both sides (of the remain and anti democratic sides!) :lol: and draw the conclusions made by people far better at this stuff and put it on here.

You Brexiteers come to conclusions based 100% on your own preconceived opinions and that it why you get so annoyed when slaughtered on here. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Where as I block people when I can't bring myself to admitting I'm wrong!

I hope we get a deal, but the way we are going suggests that we will end up with either no deal or no Brexit and a massive constitutional crisis.

Go well all

I just find comfort in the thought that 100s of thousands of listeners heard, and looking at the polling , agree with her. While , at the same time, you are spending your time showing, that you're still fascinated by some sad sacks parody account that hardly anyone reads on a football message board!

Fair point the difference is Tony Blair had large majorities,Boris is in charge of a minority administration,and he seems determined to reduce his numbers by the day.

Yes that's right.

It's the one that shows that massive majority of people say we should have a general election!


A general election that the cabal of democracy denying remoaner MPs are blocking !!!

Its parliament versus the People

It's the same one!

Edit - Added to that how many EU members have sections of their populations pushing for independence themselves? Do the Scottish think they are going to welcome a Scotland breakaway.... and setting precedent for break away nations?

They are avoiding others pointing this out with Brexit and balancing it with effectively wiping out Labour in Scotland.
As I’ve said on other threads I want the UK to remain ‘United’ but I think the devolved Governments have empowered nationalists in Wales & especially Scotland,
So much so that their words and actions are making
the English more aware of themselves as a country and as a people.

I bet you say we are too PC. How can Brexit resolve the issue of allowing people to live in harmony when footballers like Sterling feel there is growing hatred towards them?

Just watching Dominic Raab on Sophie Ridge and he was pretty lucid but obviously struggling a little when asked if they would obey the law on asking for a further extension.
Then Baroness Chakrabarti came on basically took the **** out of him being mealy mouthed.
Then Sophie asked her if she supported the PM of this country going to jail for trying to uphold democracy and I thought the sound had gone funny on my telly as she stuttered a non comital response of sorts then Soph went for the Election Corbyn conundrum and she started looking like someone who’d been caught with stolen underwear in their bag
Glass houses
Sophie says you don’t like democracy

The term no deal wouldn’t exist cos we’d have left with some things agreed and others still to solve

Its difficult to say, perhaps correlation and causation? What has lead to Sterling receiving racist abuse is hard to identify specifically. There's always been cowardly idiots spouting off poison and sadly I guess there always will be.

But don't you think some of the rhetoric from some labour party members has increased the rise of anti semitism towards MPs like Luciana Berger?

When she attended last years labour party conference she had to have protection from potentially, god knows what.

If it was because May wasn’t a committed leaver, that’s still the fault of the Tory party and government rather than parliament.

If we had a diverse and free press in this country, the idea that our parliament is the problem, rather than a PM who has tried to ride roughshod over it - that idea would be shot down as the absurdity it is. I think the reason that billionaire owned newspapers are so relaxed about a PM acting like a dictator is that it accords with their general world view.

Any reason you're trying to use "ladies" as a derogatory term, Ringo?

Think as in ‘“big girls blouse” and “girly swot” it’s a fairly jovial low intensity insult for a man to be called this and have his masculinity questioned.
But girl or girly or ladies would most likely not cause insult to a female

Admit it, you don't know what precocious means, do you? And for the record I'm not above calling someone a dumb c.unt and being done with it when the occasion suits. God forbid, people express themselves clearly and articulately, (I actually enjoy the better written posts on here, even those with which I disagree - they're usually more insightful and better expressed than is typical in other social media), but you're a bit of a try-hard yourself, so I suppose the difference between precociousness (a characteristic of a person) and verbosity (a characteristic of rhetoric) would be lost on you, Elizabeth. I can be verbose as f.uck, but only because I can't be arsed following up my posts with clarifications for the benefit of idiots like you.

But why are all these female led insults meant to be bad?

Are women worse than men?

“Both are awful prospects, but I think a no-deal Brexit could cause far more damage to our future economic success than Corbyn.”

That was Ken Clarke today

Two weeks ago he said he wouldn't even consider letting Corbyn in

I'm not sure the Brexit bunch have thought this through, and the more anti-parliamentary democracy they get, the more likely it is that Conservatives will take that view.

The UK and Irish governments are (at last) taking the risk of a no-deal exit extremely seriously and both are drawing up detailed plans for what happens at (or near to) the Irish border after a no-deal exit.

Surely this process will deliver the basis of a solution to the dreaded backstop which can then be removed from the withdrawal agreement.

If you hadn’t noticed by in large they are different from one another now admittedly as society is suggesting it’s more of a fade to grey thing and all should be accepted
As you are only to aware though mostly a man wants to be big and strong and a woman wants to be shall we say more streamlined and has more of an emphasis on her appearance rather than her physicality
Therefore telling a man that wants to be up there in the manly stakes that he’s a bit feminine irks him but telling a woman she’s
Feminine would by in large be a compliment
So stop being a pussy

Cheer up Ringo , this does have a funny side.

You lost your way when you fell into the trap of trying too hard to convince the remoaners I wasn't you.

That is...well...actually...I stand by my prior words: political fan-fiction from an utter kook, actually.
We currently have the same thing happening in the States and it's a terrifying mindset - all because they lost an election. "Blood on the streets", etc. People need to calm down.

There's a word for political violence ... hmm, I wonder what it is.
