Peoples Vote

[SirGalahad]

The irony, the shorters delight and will punish the companies that have the bulk of the sales in the UK, the same companies quitters thought they were helping.

RM is rubbing his hands in glee as he and Odey (who donated money to the Brexit campaign and then shorted UK assets) stand back at their great work.

Some people really are easy to con.

What I want to know is...if this is a 'people's vote'....what was the first one? Aliens vote?

 

[EFLImpudence]

Good point.

Just more conning.

Indeed

It's to save the embarrassment of politicians.

Remember when Strong and Stable said there would definitely not be a General Election? And then called one?

Now she says there will definitely not be another Referendum.

 

[EFLImpudence]

There will only be another referendum if they genuinely don't care about the result.

Will not be another in/out ref.

 

[noseall]

Will not be another in/out ref.

Is that a question?

We will remain in the EU by the back door judging by Theresas ever wavering red lines. No need for a ref.

No

 

[securespark]

Will not be another in/out ref.

Mrs Secure said that too. I think we're too old now.

Surely you're still up to the 'hokey cokey'?

After all, that's what it's all about

As a remainer a three boxes option on a referendum 2 paper would be ideal

But having thought about this for some time I have concluded that it would be a 'fixed' referendum, given the leave vote would most likely be split letting remain in by the back door!
This country is now so divided that were that to happen, I believe it would be 'light the touchpaper and stand back' time!

But since many people didn't understand the implications of the 2016 referendum (yourself included as you have admitted), the following might just be a possibility.

When we get to the point where we know what a 'deal' looks like, or if there is a 'no-deal'...

Maybe a voting option could be:

Knowing what you know now.
1. Do you still wish to leave the EU.
2. Do you still wish to remain in the EU.

I can think of no reason why this should not have been the approach in the first place
(apart from the wish of the tory party/Camoron to preserve their grip on power at all costs)

Because who in their right mind should ask for people to choose (on what is probably the biggest electoral choice in their lives) without them knowing what it would mean for them 'on the ground' should a 'leap in the dark' become the result!

Ellal...dress it up whichever way you want,in/out ref 2 will not be happening.If you and others are too dense to read between the lines of lieing politicians and educate yourself on brexit its your look out,,boat has sailed,you left on shore,,byeee!
Three box ref 2,,you on another planet?

 

[durhamplumber]

"Knowing what you know now.
1. Do you still wish to leave the EU.
2. Do you still wish to remain in the EU"

They are both the same question.are you off your meds again

 

[JohnD]

I remember, before the first referendum, some dumb plumber claiming it would be a landslide "out" vote because (he claimed) he had only met Quitters and never met a Remainer.

Never believe a plumber.

Serious question - what are we going to all moan about after we leave the EU?
