National News Brexit - the Deal or No Deal poll

[Paul Cannell]

I find it kind of strange that the Brexit party had 4 former members of the Revolutionary Communist Party standing on as candidates in the EU elections. A party with a history of supporting IRA terrorism and denied the existence of the concentration camps in to which “socialist” Serbs herded Bosnian Muslims. It's prospective candidate for Islington also defended Colonel Gaddafi’s Libyan regime over the bombing of Pan Am 103.

These are Farage's democrats supporting the people's decision. They couldn't give a shit about the people, your Brexit leaders.

Article I was quoting is Nick Cohen in Sunday's Observer.

If they were waving flags saying 'scrap Brexit' with an EU symbol visible, that would be political, but waving an EU flag is no different to waving the national flag of any individual country, or of NATO or of the WWF.

I think you need to reserve your sense of outrage for something more worthwhile.

I’m not angry. Disappointed that three and a half years have been wasted.
I do think it is political waving EU flags.
No longer interested either way now whether we stay in or not now.
The political parties are a waste of time and I doubt whether I’ll vote again in the future

What I find inappropriate is the leader of the Brexit Party having the opportunity to promote his party line for 8hrs a week on a national radio station.

No leader of a political party should be allowed that kind of platform.

At least you won't see him on the BBC anymore after his rambling hissy fit last week . So if you want to avoid Farage, only watch the BBC!

De Pfeffel seems to have slightly thin skin. Poor snowflake.

So Boris keeps saying "We're going to leave on October 31st come what may", and "We're going to obey the law" in consecutive sentences to anyone who asks.

Makes me think that he and his team do think there is a way around the parliamentary bill. Otherwise he's going to have to break one of those two promises.

Just seems inevitable to me, now, that Brexit is not going to be decided upon by the 33.5m referendum voters or the 650 representatives of the people in the Commons, but by the 12 appointed judges of the UK Supreme Court...…..

its Bozo blustering, as he does .... hes gambling pretty much his political career on delivering Brexit, with the help of Cummings ( the unelected, non-party member manipulator).... if the implications of the Brexit situation and possible after-effects having seriously damaging outcomes potentially, whichever way things go werent as likely to be as damaging as they are/ can be the whole situation would be laughable IMO

There was talk yesterday that someone in Downing Street has found a "loophole" with the recent legislation. I use "" because it's not clear if it's just bluster or not.

Some would say it is completely different.

The EU is not an individual country, although it aspires to be.

I noticed some motorway matrix signs are showing the message about paperwork changing on November 1st, be prepared.
The "Illiberal Democrats" have swiftly alienated 17.4 million voters.
The Supreme Court will fudge their decision.
Boris could appeal, maybe to the ECJ!!

And the clock continues to tick remorselessly.....

Only the 30-odd million for them to aim for then...

That's why I was careful to include WWF and NATO in my comparison.

As for motorway matrix signs, Geoff Knowfuckall down the pub reckons we're definitely leaving, so rest easy my friend.

NATO..... an alliance of forces that protect each other if one is attacked. No agenda,collaborative working.... how things can be.
WWF.... an alliance of people looking after wildlife. No agenda, collaborative working with leverage..... how things can be.

Neither organisation has a goal to be a nation state.

Course there aren`t many motorways out your way so you might not have seen them. Run by the Highways Agency, not Geoff.......

Good luck getting 13 million of them to vote.

I may be wrong in thinking WWF is the World Wrestling Federation then?

Brexit... an explanation?

You're in court. 12 jurors. 5 vote guilty, 4 vote innocent, 3 don't know.
Your life depends on this.
Do you accept the guilty verdict based on that?

Compulsory voting is the best thing about the Aussie system (not everything is great). In my view it makes just the right balance of right and obligation. You are obliged to either vote, spoil your vote, go to the effort of substantiating an excuse or voting early, or the pain in the a**e of paying a modest fine. Voting is on Saturday, so for a large proportion of the electorate don’t get their work/school schedules screwed up.
No excuses really for not taking up the right that many of our forebears died for.

don't tell 'em your name, Pike....

 

[SteMerritt]

spoil your vote,

Please provide your own sandpaper...
