And another and another until you finally get the result that you want.

OK Pussay here's your chance to enlighten us. What would the question be? Just give us a general idea please.

The reason I ask this question is I don't think it will be fair there are several permutations each of which is unfair to one group of voters or another so I am interested in how you would ask the question.

Agreed.
No doubt the next 6months, as with the last 3yrs, will be used to end this pesky Brexit nonsense once and for all.

Considering how willing Germans are (Alternative for Germany excepted) to embrace the self flagellation for the sins of their grandfathers (most of whom were relatively powerless) this issue always amuses me.

But then again, words are easy virtue signalling aren't they, whereas actually putting your hands in your pockets....that you often find becomes something else entirely.

What a pathetic bunch Remainers are.
It is hardly surprising that Labour would back a second referendum as they are the most self serving and untrustworthy party going.

When a party tries to defy democracy to win a democratic election then they deserve to be wiped out at the polls.

You really are a comedian. A bad one, but a comedian.

You would love those three options, wouldn't you.

 

Badger11 Flag Beckenham 21 Apr 19 9.41pm

So the leave vote is split between 2 options well at least you have answered my question.


What if it's

Remain 48%
Leave Theresa deal 25%
Just leave 25%


At the moment I don't see how a question can be framed that is fair and simple to everybody. If we do have a 2nd referendum I can see all sorts of legal challenges over the question both before and after the referendum.

One thing I hope we both can agree on if there is a 2nd referendum the purpose most be to resolve this issue without any ambiguity otherwise it will be onto the best of 3.

The fallout from the referendum should tell you why a second one would be a disaster.
People on the remain side often claim that a referendum was a bad idea.
They claim that people were not sophisticated enough to answer a two option choice.
They claim that Brexit incompetence is costing the country money.
Why then would you want to do it all again with harder questions?

The decision has been made. Just accept it and move on.
They only want another vote because they lost.

That was slightly in jest. I think all leave votes should be collective if that were the case. No, seriously I think it should be the same as before, yes or no. Maybe put plenty of information out there like a dedicated website that answers all questions and has every piece of information. Plus make it clear there will be absolutely no more votes.

We need free, unwhipped voting - all the while MPs are being whipped, most Labour MPs will oppose everything.

Reading that now is quite interesting, especially the part:

Securing our borders
The UK is not part of the EU’s
border-free zone – we control
our own borders which gives
us the right to check everyone,
including EU nationals, arriving
from continental Europe.

So why does Theresa May say in Parliament we must leave to take back control of our borders?

I heard most MPs are quite partial to a bit of whipping.

I don't think it actually matters in this case. Most Labour MPs are Remainers so not likely to vote to leave anyway.

You are really scraping the barrel puss puss.
Have a read of this to enlighten yourself.
We will do the same as the EU will do to us
"British travellers may be asked by border guards to provide information on the purpose of their visit and means of subsistence during their stay. Luggage would be subject to customs checks."
AND
"The commission also confirmed British travellers would lose their right to access healthcare through the European health insurance card"
We would do the same saving the NHS money.
