Sci-fi?

Originally posted by sasguru View PostWhat does "staring down the barrel of a 2nd referendum" mean?
Is Nigel Farage not in favour of democracy?
It's only in totalitarian dictatorships that people aren't allowed to change their mind.

All bets are off... Brexit still can be stopped
All bets are off... Brexit still can be stopped - Top Stories - The New European
Her manifesto U-turns, her brazen reversal of values on Brexit, her cowardice on debates, her control-freakery towards colleagues, her pathetic fawning towards Trump and Erdogan, her callous disregard for pensioners and dementia sufferers, her high-handed, bombastic attitude to fellow European leaders, the way she narrows her beady eyes when anyone has the temerity to ask her a question… well, if this is all a bit nuanced, we’re not massive fans.If the British people go cold on Brexit, then politicians should have nothing to fear about respecting that new will.
If, as we expect it will, the process of Brexit looks like it will inflict permanent harm on the United Kingdom and our economy, our culture and – most importantly – our security, then politicians across the political spectrum should join to reverse it.
Legally, politically and morally, Brexit can be reversed. Today, all bets are off.

Originally posted by sal View PostThere should be second EU referendum but not in/out, instead about the terms. Multiple tickboxes which major parts to keep SM/FM/CU etc. with massive educational campaign on the impact of keeping/losing each of them. Not going to happen of course since the Government is clueless of the impact themselves.
Therefore the default position has to be a hard brexit - and anything better than that is a bonus.

Tory Scum Govt CHOSEN to make it "will of the people" (with laughably small percentage over 50%).
