The vote been done and there should be no talk of remain. The MP's are there to represent the people and democratically we vote out, now they get pay a good wage to up hold the will of the people. So why the feck after two years are they still talking about it for, because 80% of MP's don't want to leave. They are hell bent on doing any thing to trip leave up, stick every stick in the spokes of the wheel. If they had accepted the vote that they all should had done and worked hard and pulled together it would be all done and dusted by now. They are all bloody traitors of the people IMO. Cheers Arry Why are you frightened of a second vote when the actual deal on offer is available to allow an informed choice this time?? If on making an informed choice people change their minds how can they be being betrayed when a majority vote to remain??that would then be the will of the people would it not??

So people can't change their mind when they have more information on a subject?????? you must live in a very narrow world. Personally i find that i often change opinion as I become better informed on a subject....... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We now have some options to inform a decision do we not?????? Previously we did not have this information, do you not believe in the possibility of opinions changing when one has more information on which to base those opinions?

Do you not believe in the possibility of opinions changing when one has more information on which to base those opinions. I take it your avoidance of my opening comment is acceptance that the cartoon was hypocritical in it's message of bigotry. People are forever being exposed to more information. Why do we not continually have referendums on constitutional matters? Why is there only talk of second referendums when the result goes the 'wrong' way? Would you support continual referendums on EU membership for ever, as we become more informed, no matter if we continued to vote 'remain'? I suspect not which is a double standard. Otherwise what's the criteria for a referendum? Yes the people should have the ability to change their minds. That comes in the form of normal representative democracy at GE time. The same way we got the first referendum. We weren't given it because "we had become more informed about the EU". To accept referendums all the time "because the people might have changed their minds" makes a mockery of representative democracy imo. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
