...you wrote that based on 'logic' but no fact...which means the counter argument is just as valid. I'm sorry if you don't like it...but i appreciate it was just as bland and meaningless as your original 'logic' as neither of us can argue the 'fact' as to what the 6% actually represents.

If we're going to use stats to support our points, lets do so with meaningful ones; not generic ones.

*apologies as i seem to only be replying to your posts at the minute. Not intentional.

The Voice of Reason In An Otherwise Mediocre World

As no referendum has any legal force they are not even advisory. It's was the commitment to respect it and the triggering of Article 50 by Parliament which has the real implications.

What Parliament enacts it can also undo. Parliament, and not governments, are sovereign in the UK. If Parliament is of a mind that the path being trodden is not in the country's interests then they have not just the right, but the duty, to act.

Parliament cannot, and I am sure will not, allow any government of whatever stripe, to use procedure to get it's own way against the collective will of the Parliament.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

There is a tsunami of water still to go under this bridge which will only be released if Parliament is somehow thwarted in it's ability to act. Individual ambitions will all be buried under the collective will to act.

Spicy.

Then again supporting selective terrorism does kind of fit in with the modern day Labour party.

A little bit fanatical here. Reminds me of 'Judgement day is upon us all' (yet again) 'repent, repent, or burn in the fires of hell'.

Whatever. You'll be waiting a long time for the second coming of Jebus. And yes that was a deliberate misspelling.

If you think such a vast system with countless vested interests and impenetrable power structures is simply going to implode, no questions asked, you're mad as a hatter.

There's certainly another crash coming at some stage, but that doesn't mean the whole of the EU ceasing to exist. See 2008. I bet the same people were offering up the same tripey foretellings. Any and all options, on and off the table, will be used to preserve the status quo.

Also, may I add, if the EU did come to an end as you seem convinced it will do almost as soon as next week, then it would need to be through such a severe event that your way of life as you know it now will be completely destroyed. Job lost, no future, begging for scraps. Although maybe that's a good thing. It would certainly be a wonderful case study in having your cake and eating it.

Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons.

He's up to his neck in Tinder skirt apparently.

We have to wait until he's taken it out and zipped up before we can get his political take on it all.
