Jeez. You really don't get it do you. Normally i know you are just being mischievous but on this you really are having a mathematical brain freeze, aren't you? The pressure on housing is only going in one direction and that is up. 4-5 million extra people by 2027 who have nothing to do with the EU will be around the UK (just England and Wales and NI possibly). Unless you want to EUthanase the over 80's. Leave claiming that 'exit' would alleviate the pressure on housing was, basically, wrong and disingenuous. It will only increase as you well know. The housing crisis is a separate issue from the EU. To marry the two is avoiding the critical issue of how to solve it. Give it up Michael. You are being deliberately obtuse. There are amny reasons why there is a shortage of housing in areas of the country - ageing population, immigration, planning regulations, empty properties - and it makes sense that if you limit EU immigration then you are going to reduce a demand from that source. What don't you understand? I think you have emotionally put so much into this vote, you are suffering from nervous exhaustion. We have already had Gusset meltdown this week, for your own health, would suggest you take a breather.

You answered a different question. I answered your question. The meltdown continues... If you are spoiling for a fight, be a man and go push the biggest bloke you can find on your local and then call him a c***. That will get the response you want.

Had the margin between leave and remain votes been wider I think people would have taken it with better grace. It's a shame that some leavers and remainers could have been more magnanimous. As it is I think we need to wait a few more days before people calm down a bit. This is what bothers me. From a total of 46.5 million eligible to vote, this result has been carried by just 1.4 million, i.e. 3%. No wonder there is a lot of unhappiness in the country.

So with In being at about 48% and Out being at about 52% would one of them have to form a coalition with Shake It All About in order to take the country forward?

So the question did any of my sort vote for Brexit yes or no? Leave it Gusset. You are arguing for the sake of arguing. Go and have a pint or something. I am not rising to your provocation because I have answered this and you, like the country, need to move on.

3% is too small a margin for such a big change, especially as BREXITers are already backing away from major elements of their campaign which look like they won by coning people with the support of the big selling papers which owned by people who don't even live here.

Another unhappy soul who never put forward this proposal prior to the vote, for some reason? What bothers me is that we never had a vote to join this 'project' in the first place.
Time to move forward together. |

I can see why poor areas shafted by neoliberalism and If you have a referendum where a pre-set margin validates the result, you end up with three possible outcomes instead of two: Remain (because it's won outright), Remain (because Leave didn't win by a big enough margin) or Leave (Leave wins outright). It's precisely because opinion was so divided that there was a referendum in the first place. To require a specific margin weighs the balance unfairly in favour of Remain. In other words, a fix.
