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

    And as something Astute mentioned previously, a lot of these MP's are career politicians who in some cases were simply 'airdropped' into a safe seat to get on the ladder. They are amazingly out of touch with the membership and the own constituents. MP's were entitled to vote as they saw fit...

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

    I think Brexit is a really bad idea, but I think it's a worse idea to simply ignore what the electorate said in 2016. The reason I think it will cause so much division is because the 'face' of the People's Vote/Second Referendum is a bunch of London-centric career politicians who are worried...

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

    It’s just a fucking mess now. I can’t believe she is able to manipulate parliament in such a way. Once this is over, there needs to be a serious overhaul of parliament and its procedures.

    How many times does she plan on running a vote until she gets the outcome she likes? There is no lack of irony in it that's for sure.

    Having seen it 3 times I genuinely don’t know if I’ve seen all the endings or not?

    No it’s a stand-alone episode. And yes literally that, every so often you have to choose the next step.

    For those like her and others in her party that thinks food banks are 'empowering' - c*nt is a wholly accurate description.

    As opposed to the Saudi Arabia weapons provider. If you are going to get all moralistic, at least have the consistency to look at your own.

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

    I imagine if there is ever a people’s vote or second referendum there will be almighty battle in terms of the wording and the outcomes that can be selected. I could see that taking a long while to get any kind of consensus on the detail.

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

    I do understand his point. I feel that the problem is largely because of who front's the 'peoples vote' and/or second referendum. You have people like Blair, Mandelson, Campbell who are toxic at best in British Politics post Iraq, as well as Lib Dems that were part of the coalition. Then you...

    Or someone's idea of some free extra publicity. Look at the Iceland ad that was banned - has raised so much more awareness than it possibly would have gotten.

    Anyone else seen his work? Been a follower for a couple of years and his other work prior to this. Genius IMO - compelling yet absurd.

    Or maybe the idea that certain people in this country find the responsibility of adequately providing for the young, old and vulnerable to be a left-wing extreme idea and therefore dangerous. Maybe says more about our country than theirs.

    But strangely ignore examples like in Scandinavia where it works effectively.
