    Until both sides acknowledge that the other's arguments have some validity, there will be no solution to this mess.

    There are arguments for both leaving and staying in the EU - there isn't a 'right' answer.

    However, in practice, the government couldn't have done a worse job of implementing "leave".
    At last! Something remainers and leavers can agree on! We all hate those in the middle!

    Seriously, I do wonder where this will all end.....

      This finally makes sense, because the UK is run by unelected EU womps like Ann Widdecombe and Nigel Farage, the House of Commons and its associated MP's are powerless to agree a way for us to leave the EU.

        Let's put aside the totally simplistic interpretation of 'democracy'. Let's ask the question "Is it more democratic to follow the will of the people three years ago rather than the will of the people today?"


        Brexiteers just keep grimly hanging on to a perverted moment in time. It's long gone and we've moved on.

          It might have been more democratic to have followed the will of the people three years ago, but thanks to the incompetence/belligerence of our elected masters, that particular ship hasn't even left port, let alone sailed...

                It's Friday. And the pub was open. And nobody takes Sassy's ramblings seriously anyway. Btw, has anyone checked his bail conditions lately?

                    Should we not have had a referendum every 3 years then? 1978, 1981, 1984, etcetc.

                    I want referendums banned full stop. In fact, I want a referendum on that....

                      You can have one, and we promise to ignore the result.
