EU divorce bill agreed

[vinty]

The majority of the population in Scotland and NI wanted to remain in EU.
Therefore TM (and the rest of the Brexiteers) are only representing the constituents of England and Wales!

Good init? Just select the votes of the ones that you want to represent and bu99er the rest!

You are cherry picking again, the referendum was about whether the UK should stay in the EU it wasn't about whether Scotland or N.I. should stay in the EU,the vote was a collective vote by the whole population of the UK so your point about N.I. voting to remain is irrelevant.

exactly these remoaners fail to under stand the democratic process

& that NI is some what different as it has a land border with the South.

Scotland and wales can suck it up imho. listening to there nonsense gives ones back side ear ache ( like way R bee )

 

[EFLImpudence]

Your opinion, not fact

Which parts are not true?

 

[SirGalahad]

exactly these remoaners fail to under stand the democratic process

Is it still a democratic process if as it seems more than likely there has been Russian interference and issues surrounding the funding of the Leave campaign?

There are ongoing investigations. Would that not undermine the democratic process?

 

[noseall]

He won't answer. Prepare for his usual question dodge - "neo liberal, NEO LIBERAL....!"

 

[noseall]

We are seeing this unfold in the US. Looks like the truth is returning to haunt one of the worlds' biggest liars.

 

[noseall]

N.I. voting to remain is irrelevant.

It's hardly irrelevant when you have Arlene Foster calling the shots.

 

[Notch7]

Notch ignores another difficult question.

Not a difficult question, just stupid.

The UK voted in a referendum, the result is a decision for all of the UK.

What does devolved powers have to do with it?

 

[Notch7]

It seems to me there needs to be regulatory alignment with the whole of the UK.

You mean like a united kingdom? What has split us apart? Now let me think......?

What is the point of devolution?
The big decisions are firmly entrenched in London, irrespective of devolved government. They do not count!

In other words pick those opinions that you want to represent and bu99er the rest of the country. Except that on this occasion, the PM does not represent Londoners either!

Precisely noseall, the leader of the DUP, who do not represent the majority of NI, never mind the rest of the UK, forcing the hand of the PM, because the PM made a colossal error in calling a general election!
Having paid DUP £1B for their support the DUP are now telling the PM what to do!
A shambles is a mild description of the situation. The newspaper headlines are more appropriate.
The PM has been DUPed!
They are taking the DUP

If the Brexiteers say the referendum result should be respected, then surely DUP should respect the opinion of NI majority and become remainers.
Oh no! That is not allowed.
Brexit is happening because the majority in England and Wales voted for it. But the party that holds an advantage in NI is going directly against the majority opinion in NI, and scuppering the chance of a Brexit deal. What a farce!
The Brexiteers are inventing strategies to suit their purpose. E.g Brexit because the majority voted for it. It was a UK wide referendum. To ignore an advisory referendum is undemocratic.

I don't mean to be rude mate but do you suffer from comprehension problems,your point about the majority in N.I.voting to remain in the EU may well be correct but the vote to remain was based on the proposition that the whole UK would remain in the EU, the deal that TM was allegedly discussing was not what the majority in N.I. voted for.

Only of any relevance, if it materially affected the result.

 

[IWalkLikeHimaMartian]

I...the deal that TM was allegedly discussing was not what the majority in N.I. voted for.

No-one voted for the deal that TM was allegedly discussing, especially not NI who voted to remain.
So, in a way, what TM was discussing was a compromise for NI, except the DUP scuppered an acceptable (to the majority of NI) deal.

Im not sure how regulatory alignment differs from staying the in single market, but my understanding is that that is what TM is proposing.
