I wonder if she will just try another meanful vote.

We could have a 3rd, 4th, 5th.

Next week meaningful 7, 8 and 9

 

[Vinty]

silly strawman vinty

nobody has made that claim.

On the Ballot paper it said Remain or leave

 

[EFLImpudence]

It did. That was the second mistake.

 

[noseall]

On the Ballot paper it said Remain or leave

So how is it the EU's intransigence that is at fault?

I think you need to have a word with our 'sovereign' Parliament boyo. They are the ones sticking it in the neck of leavers.

The EU has been insisting that the UK accept an unratified "agreement" that has already been rejected by the UK Parliament and I suspect if put to a popular vote it would also be rejected again.
Even though the EU knows that Mays agreement has no support in Britain they are insisting that it is the only deal they will accept.

 

[noseall]

The EU has been insisting

Leve means leave surely? How can the EU insist anything?

 

[ellal]

Even though the EU knows that Mays agreement has no support in Britain they are insisting that it is the only they will accept.

The EU are simply sticking by the rules that the UK agreed to...

It's not that complicated to understand

Of course they are, that was the final deal which May agreed.

So why aren't we leaving and telling them to shove it?

 

[SirGalahad]

So its acceptable to have a second vote on her deal but not a second referendum.

 

[Vinty]

Yes May agreed the deal and if she was a dictator there wouldn't be any problem, unfortunately her deal required ratification by Parliament, because Parliament rejected her deal it meant there was no deal.
A deal to be a deal requires consent of both parties.

 

[Vinty]

So why aren't we leaving and telling them to shove it?

Because Parliament is remainer in sentiment and wants the UK to remain in the EU.

 

[JohnD]

That idiot David Davies, the anti-European brexer, wasted several days of his life popping over and refusing to look at Barnier.

Waste of oxygen.

 

[Vinty]

So its acceptable to have a second vote on her deal but not a second referendum.

I didn't advocate a second vote on anything I just speculated that if there was a popular vote on Mays deal it would be rejected.

 

[noseall]

Because Parliament

Correct.

Not the EU.
