The laws that were in place on the day of the referendum should be the only laws that apply to that vote.
So the new law banning a no deal should not be able to apply imho.
Applying new laws to things that happened 3 plus years ago is a dangerous move.

What's so great about Brexit?

Apart from the inflation, the  job losses and the delicious chlorinated chicken.


How will you personally benefit from leaving the EU?
Report jefferz September 7, 2019 3:30 PM BST
The point is the people voted to leave so that's what should happen in a democracy whether it's great or no so great.

3 years ago a no deal was a million to one according to the new pm.
3 years ago we were told it would be the easiest deal in human history.

I didn't,for example, vote for Tony Blair in the past but accepted he was PM.I knew some people would benefit and some wouldn't.
Depends on your circumstances.
To answer your question i don't think it will make much difference to me.

what they should do is make a criminal act out of lying to the electorate, democracy is only as good as the validity of the information given to those who vote.

so 'democracy' here isnt worth a damn thing

We're not leaving the EU this year or next year.. or ever imo.. None of this BS concerning no deal on the table or off is an issue... They have conspired to keep us in. hth.

Such is the deep understanding of the issues, I predict a widespread outbreak of calm and civility.

Well first and foremost. It'll get right up your nose which will be extremely pleasing. I'm so bored with this ****fest that I may not come back to this, but you get my gist?

@bigmo

Have I offended you?


(if I have, I dunno how, nor had any intention too)



maybe I missed an amusing nuance in your post, but your response seems rather abrasive towards me.

I thought "How will you personally benefit from leaving the EU?" was quite a good question.

I thought "How will you personally benefit from leaving the EU?" was quite a good question.

I thought "How will you personally benefit from leaving the EU?" was quite typical of the questions asked by remainers who seek to ignore the fact that they lost the referendum and are attempting the usual "Leavers didn't know what they were voting for" angle .
Bottom line : 'Leave' won by securing a majority of the votes cast and therefore , whether any of them will personally benefit or otherwise , we as a nation should leave forthwith . If nobody benefits and the country is plunged into an infinite chasm of depression and hardship then so be it . Then , and only then , can those who wish or wished to remain turn their anger , ire and venom onto the leavers . Until then they should keep their opinions and what they perceive to be clever or awkward questions to themselves . Their opinions have been irrelevant since May 2016 !

nb. I am not a 'leaver' . I didn't vote leave and have no definitive view as to our membership of the EU . My only interest is in seeing democracy (Will of the People) implemented in full .

How very democratic.

Angoose , I'm sick and tired of the division that has been caused by 3 years of procrastination . If we had left the EU at the earliest opportunity the country would be in a far more harmonious place than it is currently .
I stand by my words you have quoted and highlighted . Democracy should have been implemented on or soon after the referendum count was completed . That was democratic , not the ensuing mud slinging from both sides .

if it had left the day after we,d still be in all sorts of trade,security,immigration talks, this is just a bill to leave or ano deal followed by years and years of talking

Hope so would love to see the police horses baton charging the sour-faced brexiters.

Escapee. No, you haven't offended me and apologies are in order here. I'm just so fed up with this whole Brexit thing. Our politicians have totally failed us here. We are a laughing stock around the world because of it. People are so angry and so entrenched with their views it's just become pathetic.

Just looked up and I see dave1357 posted

What a sad sorry individual to actually post that. In his defence, there are others on the leave side that feel the same. I so fed up with the whole immigration, Muslim, Brexit thing that'll I'll no longer be posting on any of these subjects.

Well what do you expect?  I suppose you cheered when Thatcher's police beat down the miners?
