sussex 5,777 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 All this could have been avoided if the referendum had been made legally binding in the first place, (which would have required a vote in parliament as a matter of course). I was a remainer, but now I just wish they get on with it. There is no need for anymore delay! It wasn't made binding because they didn't think they would loose ... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,790 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 How can it have not been legally binding?? MPs had a vote on whether to give us a referendum in 2015! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackbriar 8,569 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 That prat leader of the LibDem's (don't know his name, don't care what his name is) said it's a triumph for parliamentary sovereignty.......Yet he, and many others like him, would happily hand our sovereignty over to unelected pen-pushers in Brussels ! F***ing hypocrites ! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
onion jonny 527 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 i wouldnt get my hopes up for exiting the euro union anytime soon, libs are demanding a second ref and the snp are going to put 50 ammendments so no matter what this has a long way to run and could eventually be brought back for another vote a bit like the irish, after all their are a fair few of the goverment remain voters.

Over here benefits and money rules and it stinks. Funding this, grants that dla careers. Our ones in stormont need sacked, they can't work together and collapse government at will , then still get full pay. Absolute joke, still 45 % here voted leave so it was a uk wide vote that counts not regional. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

beamish78 142 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 The question asked of the British Public was "In or Out" the answer was Out. not maybe, not if, not but just a plain and simple OUT, article 50 should have been triggered immediately after that vote. we live in a democracy or so we are told 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 47,402 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Ahhh......but what sort of out did they vote for? And that folks is how they twist the narrative Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Caravan Monster 323 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 The interviews with Gina Miller cracked me up. Every time she was asked if she brought the case with the intention of overturning the referendum result, her voice would go up an octave as she started lying about doing it for the benefit of the British people and to ensure that constitutional law is upheld 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KES2 171 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 The British voted to leave the EU - for me there is nothing to discuss, we are the law as this is a democracy. No - one has a greater right than to obey the people. MP's are our representatives, not our keepers. Decide what is on offer and do as we asked but with the best terms possible - or resign.
