Originally posted by Yorkie62 View PostNo I was merely pointing out the errors in the arguments being made regarding disenfranchising voters. My post was achieved exactly what I wanted it to. It exposed the Remainers attempts to use a 2nd referendum as a thinly veiled attempt to overturn the democratic process. Remainers have no problem with keeping options like No Deal, or Canada deal or Norway deal off a 2nd referendum ballot paper, but when it is suggested that for exactly the same reasons remain should be excluded they cry foul.
Anybody who calls for a 2nd referendum based on two choices is anti-democracy itself.
If some version of Remain is not in the ballot paper I will be disappointed, but not disenfranchised.
I suggest you get a dictionary.

There is just one reason why this country (same in USA) still keeps first past the post system - it creates olygopoly and both parties are complicit in keeping it that way.
Problem is when things run into heavy issue like Brexit that splits both parties - now they are going to drive us over the cliff because of it.

In England, Scotland and Wales the voting system for the European elections is the d'Hondt system of proportional representation - regional closed list. In Northern Ireland the system is Single Transferable Vote.
Since 1999 voters in Britain have elected MEPs under a proportional representation system. The European Parliamentary Elections Act of that year introduced a regional list system with seats allocated to parties in proportion to their share of the vote.
This explains how Farage gets voted in as it's a vote for the party not the person, if it had been the person then he would have suffered the same fate he has when trying to get into the Houses of Parliament

I’ve done a lot actually.
But it’s not good time or place to discuss it.

I suspect deep down there is a degree of envy going on.
But enough of me, tell me what YOU did in the Army?
Leave out the bits that involved hiding under your bed. That would be too dreary.

I am happy with any outcome on Referendums as long as they are regular (at least annual), and obviously there is mechanism to revote if necessary same question.
Plus jail for liars like Farage and foreign money takers like Banks pr whatever his name is
