Just give the remainers a dummy might help a little with a bit of shut the **** up.

On another note perhaps if I don't get my win vote on the next general election I can take it to the courts like they did for brexit.

I didn't say soft or hard Brexit, I said harder That's different from hard or soft.

And I'm not sure where the rule on this forum about no hard or soft Brexit came from. It's actually in common use so I don't think you should take it upon yourself to censor it. For eaxmple:

Quote:

Ever since the referendum, an ideological war has raged over what the Prime Minister actually meant when she said "Brexit means Brexit", with different factions in her party and cabinet trying to bounce from hard to soft.

Quote:

A complete divorce, often referred to as "hard Brexit," would see the EU impose tariffs on an estimated 15,000 goods, in no uniform way: some British exports, like pharmaceuticals, would face no extra charge but the large majority would.

Quote:

Mr Johnson made his remarks following the publication of an interview with avowed Europhile Mr Blair, in which the ex-PM seemed to suggest that a hard Brexit was preferable to a soft one.

Well, considering a General Election is legally binding, and the Referendum wasn’t, no...

The Court action was to ensure Parliament had a role in the Brexit process, not to challenge the outcome if the vote.

And if you can’t discuss the subject without being abusive, perhaps your arguments lack substance?

Gavin78 · 03-03-2018, 14:06

really read a majority of the remain voters comments on here then before I get accused of lacking substance?

They did it because they knew a lot of parliament was remain they tried to destabilized the process which it has done. As it stands the process is in turmoil if we sink we know who to blame for it.

This forum is not all about the Brexit voters thoughts Gavin as we are in a democracy where opposing views and opinions should be heard even if others disagree with them as many people on here have accepted Brexit but it does not mean they should accept and agree everything that comes after as even Theresa May realises there will have to be give and take and everybody will have to compromise here and there.

Have any of them posted that you should shut the xxxx up?

Hold on, one of the prime reasons for leaving the EU was to gain Parliamentary primacy back - just because you don’t like the make-up of the MPs, didn’t mean it’s wrong. It would appear you want Parliament to decide only if they agree with you - unusual version of democracy...

btw, using words that invoke the site swear filter is against the T&Cs - please don’t repeat this action.

There seems to be a distinct lack of recognition that Theresa seems to have united Brexiteers and Remainers with her speech.

The funny thing is that she hasn't said anything really that I didn't already appreciate! However, glad to see that the message is gradually sinking in.

Not sure about Andrew, though!

Quote:

Conservative voters will accept Jeremy Corbyn becoming prime minister if it means Brexit can be stopped, Lord Heseltine says.

Voters under 40, in particular, are ready to “risk the short-term damage of a Corbyn government” than go ahead with the “calamitous mistake” of leaving the EU, the Tory peer said.

Ha ha! John Major knows that he will be dead before the impact of a Corbyn Government will affect him!

Yes, but he’ll have Alzheimer’s by then and he’ll be away with the fairies.

Why I am not surprised that a billionaire, offshore-owned pro-Brexit paper says that?

A more unbiased and realistic read can be found here.

Quote:

Delighted by what they see as a fundamental change in tone and detailed awareness of the challenges in, for example, integrated supply chains of car companies. But they also see this change of tone as leading the Government as night follows day back towards a customs union style solution, when its innovative proposals are rejected.
