[Closed] Unite for Europe March

Meh...

Willrab - do you believe that "brexit can be stopped" and that the wishes of the 48% should outweigh the wishes of the 52% ?

The 48 can vote for a party committed to the UK rejoining the EU

I'm afraid I've adopted the Mastermind "we've started so we'll finish" attitude to Brexit. Let's just get it done with. Having voted remain, personally i think it will do this country more harm than good to try and backtrack on that once in a generation referendum result.

Ironically, Brexit may well force the EU to change into something more people would have voted to remain.

Precisely - it will eventually get leaner / more pragmatic, but we won't reap the benefits. But I am sure trading with NZ will help offset the loss.

Yay a march to solve all! 😕

Will there be achingly witty placards?

depends if anyone has access to some board and a selection of coloured markers

The fight now isn't to undo brexit, it's happening next Wednesday, Leave lied about pretty much everything, but the sad thing is a lot of people just don't care.

The fight now is to remind May that she promised a deal for both sides of the argument, not just the UKIPers she's so worried about for 2020.

With a 16% lead in the polls that must be it.

Oh goody, another Brexit post!......

I would like to think that it would reform itself, but there are powerful voices saying otherwise, like Junker admitting that fear will be used to keep other countries in the bloc.

Junker the tool who peddles fear will soon know his place.

Aye, he'll be sitting in his mansion, still collecting his 7 figure salary, quietly sobbing, muttering - 'I wish I was that chewkw, spending all my time posting horseshite on singletrack'...

You do horse shite a disservice that at least has benefits for my veg plot.

😆

Willrab - do you believe that "brexit can be stopped" and that the wishes of the 48% should outweigh the wishes of the 52% ?

I believe that the voices of those 48% (and almost certainly rising) should be heard rather than "shut up, we won, you lost, get over it, two world wars and one world cup doo dah."

Do you believe that half of the country should just be completely ignored, that they should be oppressed and bullied into silence? That's no democracy I recognise.

**** the 48%. They lost. Is it such a hard concept to understand.

Scotland is nice this time of year how about a 48 percent increase in population.

Bomb Luxembourg.
That'll teach the lying bent bastard.

Civil war or STFU.

oh bugger it i can't resist

no the 100% lost. its just the 48% were right.

ah that felt better.

Zaneland I have never been beaten in my life - the remain resistance and the EU popular front will fight on...... and shit on Brexiteers at all opportunities.

I don't believe that May should be given free reign to do as she pleases with Brexit, especially given the information coming out of David Davis' mouth at the Commons Select Committee last week.

If May's arguments against a Scottish Indy Ref 2 are to be believed she's either missed the idea of irony or is a massive hypocrite.

Without some kind of either parliamentary scrutiny or a referendum on the outcome of negotiations we'll be the only country in the EU without any kind of ratification or scrutiny of the deal, hardly taking back control.

With so many people currently in limbo due to this I think the Tory party's game is ruining many peoples lives and should have some kind of scrutiny.

the remain resistance and the EU popular front

How's things, Wolfie?

+1!

Sometimes it is good to admit defeat than trying to hang on to the losing grounds to cause more troubles. 😆

This isn't a football match.

We want May to listen to us when coming up with a new deal. Is that such a hard concept to understand?

Tooting Popular front - bunch of light weights... CFH we are the Northumbria National Resistance proper hard-core..

no the 100% lost. its just the 48% were right.

I may borrow that line.

Northumbria National Resistance

Splitters.

What do you have to say or to offer deal wise? 😯

What do you have to say or offer deal wise?

Or you know, maybe Parliament have a say? You know, because they want Parliamentary Sovereignty?

If they're so confident they'll get a good deal why are they so scared of having scrutiny?

The referendum didn't say what kind of exit we'd get, surely parliament having a view would be good for democracy?

**** the 48%. They lost. Is it such a hard concept to understand.

It's hard to argue against such a well formed argument, but I'll have a go.

Democracy, the word that the Leavers hold so sacrosanct, is the representation of the population, not just the ones you agree with. If the vote had gone the other way by the same narrow margin, I'd be all for parliamentary change to address the reasons why many people voted Leave.

Oh I don't know why I bother, it's like playing chess with a pigeon.

I may borrow that line.

48% is not half, 50% is half, anything above 50% is a majority.

Anyway. The reason this thread wasn't closed as a duplicate is that it was to discuss the march, rather than retread the same ground as the huge one. You want to argue leave vs remain, or want to be a patronising bell-end, go do it there. I'll be aggressively deleting off-topic conversation from here on in.

Zaneland I have never been beaten in my life

Swoon, my hero.

So, the march then. Is anyone here going? I can't, unfortunately.

Don't Zanelad I am filling up...

Marching is not going to do any good other then stirring up sentiment amongst people who are trying to move on.

You are proper funny Chewkw
