Well if Brexit was to blame for as much as folk would have you believe then surely it’s of the upmost importance to have another vote ASAP.

wanderer1984 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 21 minutes ago, Not in Crawley said: I'm sorry, I just don't know what that actually means. I'm leafleting for a local council ward on sunday morning for an hour for an election in a month that effects people in my local area. I'm pretty sure that's a dictionary definition of small sacle, immediate support for people who need it. I'm volunteering my time to help build a new play park for the children in my area. Today I've gone on a food run for two elderly people I know ... taking them to the butchers and small stores. Last week I did a local beach clean. Next weekend I'm cooking for the community to make money for a local charity. Things that have a impact on those around me. I make little things better for them whilst you and your type can concentrate on the long term by giving out leaflets. I'm trying to do my bit. Apparently that's the last thing this country needs. Folk like me cracking on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a maybe in the next 10 years Nobody is making me believe anything. It’s obvious that none of the promised benefits have materialised. Clear as day. People appear to have less in their pockets, many businesses & industries were negatively affected. Which is a combination of other factors too. Within a decade is quite a short timescale in referendum terms. Just a couple of government cycles. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the debate resurface within that time.

Folk like me cracking on. I'm not saying you're not but lets look at it this way - again slightly less micro... I'm volunteering my time to help build a new play park for the children in my area. Fab stuff - it'd also be good to have enough money inthe local budgets to employ people to build these local ammeities Today I've gone on a food run for two elderly people I know ... taking them to the butchers and small stores Again, can't falult you - good community stuff, but also should there not be provision so people are relying on the kindness of others for their basic needs? Last week I did a local beach clean Tip top - volunteering is something more people should do, but also shouldn't our beaches be free from this anyway without good folk having to give up their time? The point you are missing is all your activities are political, just as much as mine. Yes, they don't have a party attached but each small act of kindness helps build up communities to have a collective voice to say we shouldn't have to do this by ourselves - we want more support, more money for our local facilities, cleaner public places - that's a fair and reasonable ask from the people we put into positions of public service, who are paid to do what others are clearing up behind them for free. They should be accountable for your efforts, don't crack on in silence - that way you won't get the support you, your community and so many others like you might need.

Could even be part of a future election promise instead of a referendum. I’m not really saying we should have one. Just that I wouldn’t be surprised to see the debate return.
