What makes you think the UK can win a war with Spain? Using their only (new) aircraft carrier with no aircraft for it , a leak and running on windows XP? -
The English and the Welsh voted for it, the Scots and Northern Irish voted against itOriginally posted by Bean View PostWho voted to restart the Troubles?
Where was the vote held?
What was the wording of the question like?
Who was eligible to vote?
Was it democratic?
Should the outcome be respected?
The vote was called EU referendum and held in June 2016
Every UK,commonwealth (WHY FFS?) and Irish (WHY FFS?) citizen living in the UK was allowed to vote
According to the winners of the referendum the outcome has to be respected else you are a traitorComment

You’ve already had the answer, it was the referendum. Asking the questions again won’t change it.Originally posted by Bean View PostNo.

“We all knew what we were voting for”, apparently.
- You knew that voting Leave meant leaving the SM and CU, apparently
- You knew that “taking control of our borders” meant immigration border controls of some sort
- You knew that “making our own trade deals” meant regulatory misalignment between the U.K. and the EU, leading to customs controls
- You knew (but didn’t care) that there are U.K. and Irish citizens that are, rightly or wrongly, vehemently against any form of border, controlled or otherwise, between Ireland and NI.
There’s been a lot of good work by good people to get the GFA through to resolve these issues over the past 50 years. Rather than sorting it out in the open beforehand though, you’re hiding behind “the will of the people”.
If you’re going to go down the route of asking those pedantic questions every time, then try applying them to everything else. Customs Union? Single Market? Immigration? Sovereignty? You know as well as we do that none of these, including the Troubles, were specifically on a ballot paper so spare us the fake indignation and man up to the consequences of your vote.Comment
