Brexit again...

[For Us All]

I'm more worried about what's going on here.

 

We've got Corbyn taking Labour down the left wing path, hard line Brexiteers threatening to take over the Tory Party, a small rise in UKIP membership recently, a growth in anti-semitism and in islamaphobia, and now this whole Brexit business has created an awful lot of anger and mistrust.

 

Whatever happened to accepting another person's opinion, tolerance, respect and good manners?

 

We are leaving in an age of increasing polarisation and growing nationalism when all the lessons from the past will tell you that unity, togetherness and mutual respect is the best way forward.

 

Whatever happened to accepting the greatest democratic vote in British history?

I know facts don’t bother Brexiters.

The greatest ever democratic vote was when Majors Government was elected in 1992.

 

It means nothing it was 3 years ago and has been found to have been conducted unfairly by vote leave. If it had have been a proper vote it would have been declared null and void.

Respect is a road difficult to travel alone mate.

 

Tolerance won't start with the assumption that all brexiteers are racist idiots who didn't know what they voted for and that remainers are far better educated because they voted the correct way.

 

Unity won't be achieved by the political games played by the elite or by the sole aim of any opposition party to oust the sitting government by any means..... especially by breaking promises to the people who elected them.

 

To much has been done buy the few to the many.

Like the unfair one conducted by Trump and the Russians?

Then surely every general election, by election, local election should be null and void due to the lies told in campaigns and manifestos.

You only have to look on OVF to see where tolerance starts and ends,Sage.

Is that the one trump wasn't involved in but was investigated and the one Hillary Clinton was involved in but wasn't investigated..... or is there another I've missed

Do you remember the 99% democratic vote in Germany? Size is not everything, maybe it was the biggest electoral list, only 2 choices normally there 4 or 5 reduces the numbers, also some people never vote for politicians. Or were you not talking about size?

Wrong.

John Major only got 14 million votes and 42% of the vote.

Records will still say it was the biggest democratic vote in our history.

If we have another referendum I expect a lot of voters will abstain after the latest farce.

Given the 11 referendums in the UK since 1973 which is the biggest/most important to the United kingdom as a whole?...... I agree they all affected the UK.

Here's an idea...... if we have another referendum we state that whoever wins has to secure 50%+ of the total electorate to change the previous decision to leave.

That's the one geo.Have you noticed how quiet the Democrats and the American media have gone since he was acquitted?

They won't stay quiet for long mate...... they will soon trump up something else.... sorry couldn't resist.

Agreed,another case of the losing side engaging in naughty tactics?
