    And 4. Reich, Roman Empire, EUSSR, slobbering and dribbling.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Only problem is that the public doesn’t want leave. Only about half does. The other half, the bigger half, wants to remain.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The permit thing is simmering on a back burner. I import small quantities of beer and cider from the UK. We had difficulty recently about transportation of alcohol. The existing firm said they weren’t bothering any more with alcohol. Apparently something to do with an extra license for that. I...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    A second referendum would actually be better for leavers if you are right as it bypasses representative democracy and asks the voter directly.

    Yes. At least I get out there and say what I want and why. I don’t pretend to be neutral.

    Labour said they accepted the result, but wanted to remain in a customs union. For a remainer that is better than a free for all Brexit as proposed by the ERG or an out of the SM, CU and ECJ proposed by May.

    I certainly wouldn’t work together to crash the country. The more the Brexit fiasco carries on the more it’s failings become obvious.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    A Farage party will have as much success as Farage himself under FPTP. He has the backing of the Brexit press, especially the Daily Express, but he is so toxic for „ normal“ voters, any party he is involved with won’t win any seats in U.K. elections.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    You lost, get over it was the slogan of gleeful leavers having steered the country into the present mess. Do you honestly think that with the prospect of no deal, money and jobs starting to move out of the country and no benefits on the immediate horizon, that people are in the mood of pulling...

    People who pull you on your leave biased statements are not necessarily pushing for remain at any cost, just pointing out where you are wrong.

    Because they aren’t the ones governing the country in any major sense. No one was interested in their bendy bananas or trade regulations until they were told to be.

    No. The original contract which was more of a constitution was amended. There was no majority for a second referendum to be held as it was considered inappropriate for such complicated questions and there was no desire to make referenda a form of government in the Netherlands. Wise choice.

    Good old Bercow is thinking of staying on now that the government have been slagging him off. He was going to retire

    No way. The trend is to have a second vote and remain. What makes you think the British won’t vote differently now that they see what is happening? The EU is very popular in Ireland.

    They adjusted it and the people accepted it. It is called democracy.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I don’t remember anything specific. Normally just a sweeping statement and then back on to EU bashing or pushing right wing topics such as hanging and migrants. As an example: Where have you ripped into the leave campaign and dark money? New Evidence Emerges of Steve Bannon and Cambridge...
