Brexit, for once some facts.
- Thread starter flecc
- Start date
Using numbers of signatories as a way of bigging up something is a very old trick. It just might make some sense if this particular 60 were not countered by 60 with completely opposite views. Could end up as a sort of public referendum of top politicians, economists and business leaders only. Now that sounds like a good bit of democracy, doesn't it?
In "A Public Enemy", by Ibsen, there is the line "the minority is always right". Interesting to consider the numerous ways in which that can be interpreted.
It would be more convincing if Nigel Lawson wasn't one of them!
(On his way to retiring abroad on a sort of personal BrexitExit)
it's hard to see how a bunch of 60 would face 100,000 demonstrators.
The 'Brexidiots' placed their trust in a bunch of liars and shysters and they know that now - they just can't bring themselves to admit it. It might interest them to know that the kind of creatures they support are also hell-bent on privatising the NHS. John Major recognised it:

I tend to take this survey type analysis with a grain of salt..There is a lot of sociological baggage inciuded. The Dyson products are sold at a high premiums and the people who buy these are of the high achievers, easily dissatisfied type.
(I have a Dyson product).
They appear to be happy being overcharged for cheaply constructed vacuum cleaners [emoji41]! thought high achievers had servants doing the vacuuming.

now flecc what you don`t appreciate is this is the east coast of co. Louth, ... think St. Tropez, Cannes.... stately mansions nestling in leafy suburbia .... Ferraris, Bugattis cruising down to the local yacht club..... the area is a who`s who of the great and the good, a mecca for high achievers,! thought high achievers had servants doing the vacuuming.
.
and every residence would not be seen without a premium Dyson vacuum cleaner,
oh, and a Raleigh Motus
Exactly, with the servants doing the vacuuming, not the owners who wouldn't know how the Dyson performed, or that the butler had replaced it every year out of the petty cash.
But not a Raleigh Motus, more likely a G0cycle G3 parked on the yacht for use when in ports.

Businesses should stop warning about negative impact of Brexit, Jeremy Hunt says
'It's completely inappropriate for businesses to be making these kinds of threats', says health secretary
Not nearly so innapropriate as you occupying any position requiring more than the IQ of the average Gerbil

It has always baffled me why anyone would desire a vacuum cleaner that provides a moving display of all the crap it has just picked up.
However since this really seems to attract "High Achievers"
I think my proposal for transparent sick bags with built in LED illumination should be a big hit on "First Class transatlantic flights"
John Major's on a roll at the moment!

Things really are strange when Tom can use Thatcher as support .WTF..
Perhaps I erred in omitting the quotation marks around high achievers . But with all modesty, I must confess to being the great and the good,as Tommie has so gracefully conceded.! thought high achievers had servants doing the vacuuming.

Of course high achiever could also mean someone who has scored and ok until they next need a hit.

Lord Ashcroft's polling of brexiters revealed that 6 out of 10 brexiters would rather have a hard border in NI or even a re-united ROI than remain close enough to the EU to avoid a hard border. Ashcroft's polls also suggest that 60% of English voters don't care that NI rejoins the ROI.
As 60% of Northern Irish voted to remain, if the hard brexiters have their way, it could well precipitate the re-unification.
