Elections take place regularly. That is the nature of democracy. Decisions are not static and strategy has to evolve with learning. Read your Minzberg. Don’t personally insult me. It wasn't an election though. It was a Referendum with a simple 'Should we stay in the EU Yes or No' Type question even a f***ing dimwit like me understood what it meant. What part didn't you understand ??

Not a PEEP repeat Peep would be coming from these whinging remainers if the vote had been to stay in the EU. A bit like the Democrats over here marching & demonstrating because things didn't go their way.
I can remember being told I was 'swiveled eyed' over the EU on here before the referendum......But in all honestly, if you look on this thread the left's eyes have been moving as fast as Oprah looking for lunch. Edited by Stirlingsays (12 Nov 2018 11.58pm)

By leaving the EU we reduce our liability to its folding down to below five percent of GDP. There will be an adjustment that's for sure, some better and some worse......You're just apart of the fear mongering on the remain side. No doubt you will be nowhere to be seen once your predictions are shown to be significantly over the top. Like many others. Democracy will either win here or it won't. not talking about staying in the EU, but leaving - that is what is happening, that's the here and now. THere is uncertainty - Fact, our currency is weak - Fact, big companies have expressed concern and are reluctant to invest. Not scaremongering, but facts. Maybe someone can explain how a no deal Brexit is a benefit based on facts?

No one can say with certainty how successful Brexit will or won't be.....it's conjecture based upon their own prejudices. In truth you'd need to give it a time span and then look at it....say ten years. But to answer your question, (because unlike so many on the left I answer questions) a no deal Brexit means the UK can compete with the EU....for example become a tax haven. I wouldn't say I'd advocate for a no deal as my first choice because it's more initially disruptive but I'd be serious about carrying it out. To negotiate with the EU without being deadly serious over a no deal is low IQ.....and that's been the position of Labour.....I know in reality they aren't stupid but that's what they have sold to the public...which means they think the public is stupid. And people wonder why they get criticised over Business. Edited by Stirlingsays (13 Nov 2018 7.03am)

What part didn't you understand ?? Why does a second vote worry you? Apparently we follow the will of the people. If that is still leave you get your way. If it is not you aren’t sticking to the rules.

Yes please, I'll have what I voted for thank you very much. Do you honestly think we would have another vote if it was the other way around? So go away and enjoy wages going up.

Who says the people want a second referendum? No doubt you can produce a poll that states this well opinion polls are like noses we all have one. The only way we should have a 2nd referendum would be this scenario: 1. May fails to get Brexit deal through Parliament and calls a GE. Then of course it would have to be clear what we are voting on, the terms of the deal? A re-run of the 2016 referendum? A multiple choice? That would be a democratic process for a 2nd referendum. Anything else is just moaning by people who lost. Edited by Badger11 (13 Nov 2018 8.05am)

No those are things you have written then put the fact at the end House prices going down will be coupled with interest rate hikes, inflation is already growing, mainly due to weak currency, brexit will worsen that. There may be wage inflation in unskilled sectors but not in the main and won't keep up with inflation

That's regressive I would have thought there would be a post brexit blueprint about where we go and where we see our economy in 1, 5 and 10 years, but there's nothing. Just chaos. And people such as yourself who just hold out hope that everything will be alright on the night

This has been the most disappointing aspect of Brexit the lack of vision over what next. Some people are pushing for a low tax regime but in practice that means we would have to massively reduce benefits / state spending which I am not sure people would accept. My own preference is for something less ambitious to start with. - Reduce red tape, caused by the EU, for companies that do not export. Nothing glamorous here but essentially an agenda to make the UK a fairer place to live.
