    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You seem to know much less than you think and certainly nothing about me. It was your response and threats that were extremely offensive and uncalled for. As another member posted, you deliberately distorted what I posted. .

    No he wasn't all bad, certainly close to 99% bad and probably mad, but there's published evidence of the marginal things that showed some good. That does not make me a Hitler sympathiser in any way whatsoever, knowing as I do of his truly horrific record. But unlike you, I'm not an extremist...

    That's funny considering you've already lost. If that's not the case, why have you been whinging about what an absolutely terrible deal May has achieved? .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The embarrassment was and still is yours. Your "few" nutters totalled some 17 millions. And you've totally failed to get an acceptable leave deal. How embarrassing, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yes, we knew what we had and wanted to continue with it, and many of us welcomed those possible changes. In my case I wanted the whole package, confident it couldn't be worse than the utterly incompetent and uncaring governments we'd suffered for far too long. In fact there was every...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    How on earth can you arrive at that? The referendum margin to leave was under 4%. Since the the polls have shown a continuous swing to Remain, which has now reached a clear 8% margin to Remain in current polls. That's a 12% swing, extremely large and rare in national elections. The longer...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Today Labour ruled out any support for a hard brexit, resulting in a widespread acceptance that the great majority of the Commons will never approve that outcome. That's why escape routes are being discussed like Norway plus or going into the EEA single market, if only for a few years. Or...

    Danidl, we have proportional representation in London within our four periodical elections, so I understand it well. No explanations necessary. But I also know how the public here get confused by it since its a variation they aren't used to, especially when voting at the same time on first...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Those who said the country voted for a hard brexit were obviously wrong. We were split. Your friends cannot have a hard brexit since we clearly didn't vote for it, as shown by the under 4% margin vote and the way that has now reversed, doubling that margin to remain instead. To me that means...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It must only be two, May's Deal or Remain. Three options would split both remain and leave votes and could end up a three way balance, and the EU will not have their patience stretched to a second voting round if there were two higher preferences. However, there are signs in Westminster that...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The Brexit prospects changed radically today. Theresa May said for the first time that voting down her deal could mean No Brexit at all. Labour now as well as Tory ministers have ruled out crashing out. It's no longer an option since a huge Commons majority is against it. The possibility of a...

    Nonsense, most EU countries ban or strictly control any use of zero hours contracts and the EU is preparing further laws against them. Only half a dozen of the 28 EU countries still have them fully legally, and they are soon to be constrained by the EU. In Europe it's the UK which is the major...

    To avoid misunderstandings, Polly is actually a 55 year old male from Chesterfield. And member Poppy is also a male, Spanish living at Ferrol, Spain. His forum name was his son's idea of a joke. .

    Even though we can't even get a good deal out of the EU, can't even produce a single co-ordinated political party, and 13 millions didn't even have enough belief in themselves to vote in the referendum. Who is going to quiver before that Brittania? :rolleyes: .

    No. Gibraltar is merely an important symbol to those who still fantasize about Britain's past supposed greatness. Militarily it now verges upon useless in an age when it can be so easily totally and instantly destroyed with today's weapons. .
