Element of truth in this, however it's a bit rich that the same people who bleated about the lack of democracy in our voting system because their side lost last May are now happy to give democracy away to unelected bureaucrats.

Its more than an element of truth - its wholly true.

The EU is as at least / or more democratic that our current system of political choices

It is called evolution and is something everything that still has life is affected by. The pace and direction of the subsequent changes is something we pay our politicians to study and make judgements upon. Our only role is to choose the politicians we want to do that. Which is why this damn referendum is so stupid because it opens the door to rhetoric and emotion, rather than facts and reason.

It isn't really. That is much more random affair.

This is a self fulfilling prophecy driven by men who have the most to gain at our expense. The average man will not be better off. All we will do is pave the way to a totalitarian World Government sometime in the future.

When people look back in history they will see 1957 and 2016 as significant dates in it's creation.

You and most other people I suspect. My head says remain, my heart says leave. Just because the leave lobby is populated by odious t***s doesnt mean that it is not the right thing to do. You can be repulsive and right in the same way that the remain lobby can be rational and wrong.

The head is a truly complex and amazing processor of information capable of deep rationale thought

The heart is a glorified pump.

No exit polls for the referendum. Sky will be publishing something but its not an exit poll.

 


Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand!

Lots of calls from Leavers last night on LBC. Balances out a little the reluctant remainers in the booth which is now a non-private open shelf.

One young guy said that he saw the EU as a major factor preventing him from being able to ever raise a family in a 2 bed house and years of wanting that simple aim are being dashed. Suppressed wages was raised. I'm not sure the minimum wage and EU membership continuing was. He knew some Romanians and could speak some Romanian.


When remainers phoned up and claimed there shouldn't even be a referendum they couldn't answer why.

LBC is so pro-Brexit it's absurd that they ever call themselves reporters of the news. Their Murdoch-briefed 'journalists' have been told to bang on about how sh1te the EU is for the last ten years at least

I don't think this is the time or the place to debate evolution but if you think there is anything random about it then you don't really understand it.

It's funny how many "Christians" are also nasty right wingers who try to frighten people with nonsensical ideas like the "anti-Christ".

I hope that they are firmly put in their place, on the sidelines, today.

 


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.

Yeah that f*cking Murdoch empire-owned The Times is backing... er... Remain.

Tokenism. It's the radio and TV coverage that counts. Sunday Times and The Sun Brexit.

LBC is owned by Global radio. Nothing to do with Murdoch as far as I know.

You seem to be lacking a bit of humour today Wisbech and I never said evolution was entirely random but a lot more so than the march toward European government.

If you fully understand evolution then you better call someone because you might be up for a life sized statue sometime.

Thanks.
