I am confident that if we got a 2nd referendum (and I am not sure that is a good idea bu the way) that remain will win and by a fair margin.

Then the fun would start!

Fun as in all those originally voting leave and having another go at leave labelling those who jumped across to vote remain the thick bastards who obviously were the ones who voted leave originally but who obviously didn't really understand the question?

Yes, that'll be fun.

Can someone explain to me how going from 0% tariffs to WTO tariffs for over 50% of our imports and exports would be good for our economy?

I put an example up the other week re a guy getting huge reductions on the tariffs the EU charge on certain products.

 

Food is a classic example of this.

Just seen an MP screeching about folk driving from around the country to chuck themselves off the Humber bridge, and this being the government's fault.

As someone who's suffered from such problems and analysed effective suicide methods, using such incidents to make a political point is truly abhorrent.

Cunt off and buy a dildo, bitch.

Polish woman, 12 years in the UK, on radio earlier

Said she and 3 million like her couldn't vote in the referendum

Is that right?

Yes, they were excluded

Old fossil could of paid taxes for 50 odd years and has a British passport and therefore deserves a vote.

But a polish person living here who has paid taxes for 15 years shouldn’t have a say? 

How long do you think someone should have paid taxes before they get a say? Does this rule out anyone under say 40 years old from ever voting

You have a point, though that's a separate argument as to whether ex pats should have a vote.

Someone with a Polish passport has a vested interest, and If boot was on the other foot we wouldn’t get a vote in their country nor would I expect one.

If they’d applied for British citizenship I’d of been all for giving them a vote.

And a dick as a negotiator 

A lady mp outlined his roll of dishonour.

I was surprised at the comments she made about him being under investigation by our security services for 30 years though.

No argument back and thus said everything.
