"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark Twain -
The remain campaign focussed on the potential pitfalls of leaving (and then somewhat exaggerated them), rather than the actual advantages of remaining. It was the outrageous bolleaux that the remain campain was spouting, compared to the slightly less outrageous bolleaux that the leave campaign was spouting, that tipped the result towards Leave.
Juncker sticking his oar in just before the referendum, boldly reminding us all that their is no hope for reform of the EU, really didnt help the remain cause.Taking a break from contractingComment

The icing on the cake would have been to tell us that our vote wouldn't have counted anyway, so why bother.Comment

So long as this thread remains on the subject of "Brexit, will it ever happen", I'll not merge it. However, when it degenerates into the endless post mortum of the referendum vote then such posts will be moved. Just so you know.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

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?
Nigel Farage wants second referendum if Remain campaign scrapes narrow win - Mirror Online“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

Personally 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."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Rather must those who control news policies endeavor to make every item of news serve a certain purpose.It is the absolute right of the State to supervise the formation of public opinion.
And so on and on, the above quotes explain Brexiter...“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
