The Liberal Democrats are against FPTP, hence their support for PR.

I knew what I voted for I didn't listen to much information, I knew the second we where getting a vote I wanted out and screw the cost.

And that stupid LibDem woman wants a second referendum NO means NO.

I said the UK not myself! The UK can never have enough money for schools, hospitals and caring for our elderly. Have your parents not taught you this important lesson yet?

The good news is that murderers and rapists can and they should be deported now. The EU is not preventing this. That's the way I read TheDaddy's post.

Let's just let others decide if you knew based on the post I linked to then, personally I'd say not knowing the difference between the echr and the EU is significant but them they both have European in their titles so who knows

Totally agreed. A lot of the country's views were ignored due to FPTP and that's unfair and causes resentment.

No it does NOT. The Government are responsible for listening to the democratic decision and taking that forward, else what is the point in asking people to vote when the will of the majority is ignored ?!?!

If a democratic decision goes one way then we need to focus on THAT decision and take it forward, NOT listen to the losing side that wants to try and keep us IN. Not a bloody chance, so no sorry, I haven't got a lack of understanding at all!!!

The Government has agreed to implement the will of the people in leaving the EU. That's a given so please stop worrying that it won't happen.
Where it needs to consider the nation is in regards to the future relationship with the EU. And it needs to consider the views of the entire country here, not just a sub-section of the country that voted in a particular way.
David Davis, Boris Johnson all got this. Please step up and join them.
