Badger 2,750 Posted October 21, 2018 As a strong "remainer", I can see no possible justification for another vote. Of course, the electorate was lied to, but you can''t reverse an election result just because of that!e.g. In 2010, Cameron was elected with a promise to eliminate the deficit in 2014; not to reorganise the NHS and to reduce immigration to "tens of thousands." All were complete nonsense - but rightly there were no calls for another election. IMO the 2010 election result was disastrous for the economy (although I know many disagree) and was based on lies and misinformation but you can''t cancel an election result because of that - nor can you cancel a referendum when the same applies.A "leave" vote was always going to be highly disruptive and damaging in the short-run - in the long run, it''s a matter of guesswork/ opinion - there is no definitive evidence either way, but a range of different probabilities/ possibilities. Nevertheless, it was what the people voted for - for this reason, it must be implemented, even if you believe it to be disastrous - that''s how democracy works!

Nexus_Canary 1,251 Posted October 21, 2018 Really happy Delia got involved with this.The quicker we can turn "Brexit" into a footnote of stupidity the better.Misinformed idiotic vote in the first place, I somewhat agree with the "democracy is democracy" we voted idea from Brexit but that is over cast by the fact that half the public didn''t really know what they voted for and the swinging 1% has died to be replaced by a 2-3% remain.At the end of the day this is people voting for something which will only effect them when they are dead. Utterly forgetting the cluster fcuk they leave for the next generation. That''s why it needs to be reversed and we at least need a second vote. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted October 21, 2018 I know plenty of the older generation who voted ''Remain.''The young are highly maleable and easily influenced with their limited experience. Look how Corbyn manipulated them last election by hinting (but convincing them all the same) that Labour would wipe out their student debt.The Millenials have to be the laziest, most entitled and dumbest generation since WW1. They can''t save, can''t sacrifice, can''t think for themselves. They earned less in their 20''s pro rata than any generation before and are even reversing life expectancy.They want everything given from student loans for crap degrees to PPI. Few have languages let alone qualifications to go work 8n the EU but guess what? English is common currency as a language and EU Millenials are typically harder working, better qualified and have a better attitude. They come here and buy houses thus reducing availability and putting up the price.Millenials should be begging to leave the EU but they are seduced by cheaper phone tariffs on holiday. And befor you think I have it in for the young the generations following the Millenials are much more sensible and aspirational. One last thing. Millenials are currently being groomed to hate or resent the older generation. It is a political ploy. It makes it easier to hit pensions or as the government cqlls them, benefits.Millenials have no idea how hard older folk worked in their lives to have what they resent. They are the puppet generation and the Liberal elite or the hard left are pulling their strings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,952 Posted October 21, 2018 That''s not what Rudolph was saying Jools. It''s just your mechanism kicking in where anything you don''t like is the fault of those nasty labour politicians.Rudolph criticises the young of today and yet it''s his generation that are responsible for the problems the face. They were born into the world we have now. I think back 100 years and wonder how my grandad would have coped with having to work out his gender before he went to the trenches...

Nexus_Canary 1,251 Posted October 21, 2018 I feel quite similar to badger. In unity lies strength and we should remain..but... we voted and that is the wonder and horror of democracy.However that said, I feel we should overturn or have another vote.Simply because I want to see all of the deluded prats like the Tim Martin, Bojo & Farage kicking up a hissy fit.That and I have zero respect for the idiots who dub people remoaners or brexiters.
