REFERENDUM RESULTS AND DISCUSSION THREAD

[thehistorymakers]

You're very good at pretending to know how other people think, THM

Don't mean to come across like that.

 

[thehistorymakers]

It is going to be a catastrophe. There is no logical way we can be better off in 2019 than we were in 2016.

Not sure what you want people to do though other than not vote for the Tories, who were planning to make it the worst possible outcome because of their own deluded ideology.

If it going to be such a catastropy, Dan, surely It would be the main reason for voting and people would have voted for the second referendum. There are obviously things that people think that are a lot more important than a catastropy, which is strange, because if Brexit is going to mean armageddon, then all the funding for everything else will go up the spout.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yeah, but it's going to happen anyway.

A second referendum isn't the answer to anything. As I say, they're a terrible democratic tool. You wanted people on the Remain side of the argument to accept the result and the will of the people...they have done that...so why do you now think they should rise up and demand another vote?

There are innumerable reasons why it's going to be a disaster, the electorate have at least done their bit by not handing the Tories the blank cheque that they wanted.

I've discovered the ignore function, is there a way of ignoring quoted posts?

I am happy that they accept the result and didn't vote for a second referendum. I think big business and the media concentrate on this, for personal interest reasons. The reality is, while they fill their front pages, which the people have already accepted the result, then they are not filling pages about the NHS, homeless people and the eradication of workers rights.

I have no interest in reading anything you have to say anymore, you are either wumming or fucking stupid, I'm past caring which

I think you mean your argument didn't stand up. To use WUM is an opt out when you are cornered in a debate. Ine means MODS, probrexit, help.

Hahahaha

No. Sadly.

 

[thehistorymakers]

No. Sadly.

He doesn't have to read them and better if he doesn't moan when he hasn't been able to argue his point.
I like Tony, but FFS.

He knows what we are thinking and doing because as we've established he's a Russian hacker/spy,that's why he's cagey about giving out details of his work,where he lives and why he comes back to the UK,and why we know next to nothing about him

Now, 20k signatures in the wider scheme of things isnt a whole lot. But this does show that assuming a vote for Labour (or the Tories for that matter) is a vote for brexit is fallacious.

I could sign that petition if I voted Tory, Ld's, Green or any party. Also you can sign from various email using different names. The only thing you can conclude is the people who sign them are leave voters, nothing else. Fantastic how they link it to the Guardian for more publicity. What do you want them do, change the manifestos after the election? To suit a petition of die hard remainers who haven't accepted the result?

It looks a bit rediculous doing a petition, saying you didn't vote for that. I am sure they read the Labour manifesto before the election saying, No freedom of movement and no single market!!!
Democracy is about winning elections, not voting for something and then saying, I don't want you to do that.

What a sorry state social media is in democracy..

 

[visage]

If I wanted everything in the Labour manifesto except Brexit, who should I vote for?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Don't bother. It doesn't matter how many posters explain that his 84% thing is a fucking load of fallacious balderdash, he is going to continue posting it.

Ask Tony Bliar to make a come back or start your own party. Don't vote for something and then try to take away the millions of voters rights through a petition, who have voted for it. Many people will have voted Labour and be happy that we are leaving the EU. After all it is in the manifesto.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

And many remain voters will have voted labour for all the OTHER things in there for christ's sake.
