QUOTE (TallDarkAndHandsome @ Aug 6 2018, 05:17 PM) Dream on... Though it would be funny in a way when leave won again. What would you do as a matter of interest? Demand a best of 5?😂 I would like to see remain win and then the leave brigade can justifiably cry foul and demand a third. In fact we could run it every eighteen months as a national pastime, bit like horse of the year show.

QUOTE (Strafin @ Aug 7 2018, 09:06 AM) Remain have won. Brexit no longer means Brexit whatever happens now. What a cr0ck of sh1t. How have remain won? Its a case of may or may not ne a hard brexit and you certainly dont "win" anything without a vote. We had one and leave won. If we have another leave will win again. Remainers only follow remainer news....

Well Rees Mogg and David Davies are on record as backing a second vote so hopefully we’ll get a chance to vote on the deal. What’s become clear is there’s no negotiation to be done and there’s no real deal to be had so in light of that we ought to get an “are you really sure about this” vote. I’m sure we’ll still vote leave so I can’t see a problem. The important thing is that we know what we’re voting for now.

There hasn't been since day one. In negotiation terms the EU has maintained a take it or leave it stance. Commercially, when that happens only answer is to walk away and do something else. A real negotiating team would have come home several months back, and far from being 'nice' to EU Heads of State, that ends now surely?

Tell the germans we dont want german cars and the french can stick the champers, wine and cheese up there @rse. We have a lovely continental climate for vineyards now. Oh and lets close the channel tunnel.😂 Time to go all "Trump". Actually would have been better to do it 2 years ago. We may have got somewhere by now if we had.

So either way do we know what we are voting for in the long term without a crystal ball? This is actually something that ought to be pushed and pushed hard. Certainly the scenarios I've heard aren't good and frankly rather disturbing. There is one worse alternative; going back. Now we've really seen and tasted the attitude a return would not be even worth contemplating.

QUOTE (newres @ Nov 18 2018, 08:06 PM) With every passing day, it gets a little closer. The irony of it all is that the ERG are making it more likely and Brexit less so. So does xmas, but that doesn't mean everyone welcomes it's arrival.
