Unfortunately it needs a government to change the system.
I'm beginning to think that even the referendum had gone the other way, the country would still be screwed.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Originally posted by NotAllThere View PostLabour are unelectable, the Tories have been shown to be incompetent - first by Cameron for allowing the referendum, second by May for not understanding where sovereignty lies.

Originally posted by stek View PostLet's be honest though, if there was another referendum on Brexit now, what would the outcome be? And ten more after that?
I'm not saying what I think cos I'm happy where I am, the situation I'm in, but I think we all know don't we?Comment

Originally posted by scooterscot View PostThe campaign for Brexit was one of the most shameful for a western democracy. The team that won the day did so on lies, deceit, and scaremongering. If there was one slap in the face of democracy that was it.

Originally posted by scooterscot View PostPersonally I think the UK would make a lot more progress if Alternative Voting system was introduced. Now more than ever as one of the two big parties has chosen to dilute itself. But more so because there are many voices in the country who are constantly ignored. I'm sure ukip voters would agree. And snp would probably struggle a lot more under AV.
Big parties have shown themselves to be obsolete. A GE with AV should be introduced.Comment

AV would change things for the better. But the establishment would never agree to that so you're screwed."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Originally posted by GB9 View PostThe result would be a stronger Leave, especially now an untrustworthy judiciary has found against the people.
The judiciary are doing the job they were appointed to do which is up hold the law and make sure the government does their job properly.
The ruling doesn't mean that the opposition parties and the House of Lords e.g. the legislature have a right to negotiate the treaty for leaving the EU. That is the job of May's government."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
