Although ofcourse we can vote Corbyn out in 5 years. How about we have a trial leaving of the EU? But perhaps not the 50 years Mogg reckons it will take to know if it was a success? Or we keep Labour for 50 years?

Elections should now be abandoned and we should have appointed economic experts to decide who should be in charge. The people can't be trusted to vote the "right" way. This is the future.

Yes, it’s undemocratic to let us vote on the deal.

You had a vote, it was called 'the referendum'. A second bite of the cherry just panders to the whining, democracy abusing losers.

So Amber Rudd has tossed what is, to the uninitiated, an approach that should have been adopted 18 months ago; that is an across the political board a common consensus on the UK's position. Now we all know JC would rather take up holy orders than get into bed, (metaphorically speaking), with Mother Teresa, so this is a non starter but as it is now 11th hour time any impasse in the House can now be placed at the descenter's door. Checkmate. Remoaners will demand we ask those nice people in Brussels if we can extend our "execution" until we have asked the great unwashed once more which will be "grudgingly" granted and next time we will vote correctly. (Silly electorate).

Put your house/ pension/ Uncle George's teapot collection on the status quo. cool.gif

I have given up on a position, so it's now more a case of where we end up and I can't see the Norway model being anything more than a means to an end and that is still being a card carrying member of the EU.

I may of course be completely wrong and everything in the garden will be roses. laugh.gif

Not all bad news however,
'Only 25% of voters thinks Jeremy Corbyn is decisive, according to a survey, down from 31% in October. The Labour leader’s fall to his lowest score at any point since the 2017 general election came despite most voters seeing the Tory party as divided following a week of Brexit infighting.

Corbyn also recorded his lowest score for being trustworthy and someone that sticks to his principles, according to an Opinium poll of 2,016 adults online on 13 and 14 December, falling below the prime minister."

Source, the guarderobe!!

Reassuring to know that three and a half thousand troops will be on standby when we sever our umbilical cord from Europe without a deal. Like the profits of doom have predicted the sky will darken, shops will have no stock and children will be made to walk to school. All this is the fault of obtuse elderly residents being allowed to vote. Before the next election/plebiscite I propose that we restrict voting privilege to those over 5 and under 20; Liberals are of course exempt as their views are near as **** it to the new demographic.
Anyway with troops deployed to prevent the looting of the last cwt of wheat that has been set aside to feed the third world, we can now tuck into the xmas bird, (no pun), in the knowledge that it will probably be our last.

Yeah, but, there's predicted to be a shortage of Mars bars. So it's serious!

Maybe, just maybe, you have put your index digit on the real reason behind the last 3 years of panic. By eliminating the confectionary availability we will reduce the obesity problem in our dear little kiddiewinks at a stroke.
Three cheers for our political elite says I. biggrin.gif

Rentamob doesn't mind the cause as long as they can shout. Wheel a "spokesperson" in front of a tv camera and you can guarantee some idiot will be waving a placard behind them opposing the view. Just a big game to some but they may treat it a little more seriously if they lived in a Country that frowned upon public protest. Try that in China or Russia and see how much sympathy you get.
