A few minutes ago, I had a leaflet through my door from Welsh Labour. As it's card, I can't use it as toilet paper, so straight in the bin it went.
True, but what more does it need to be? Any more words added to it and its no longer a slogan, now is it? its just a simple slogan to get into the spirit of things. People will have to do their own research and come to their own conclusions, I don't believe any one is swayed by just a simple slogan lets give the lads credit
It won't make the UK great again and anyone that buys into this crap is utterly deluded.
The days of the UK being great when we are well an truly left will be done, especially if it's no deal as well.
If your idea of the UK being a tax exile for the rich where the divide is even more extreme than it already is, if that is your idea of great.....
You do realise that people like these
get to vote too, don't you?
"You voting for Brexit there, mate?"
"Of course! It will make Britain great again, didn't you hear?"
"I guess. Let me buy you a beer and let's get smashed."
Not only in the UK. Simplistic populism is trending all over the world these days unfortunately.
@DarthDimi ,do you know any background to said person? He might be a doktor for all you know... (yes, they behave like idiots too, we had one in my city crash his landrover discovery on the highway at 200KM/H whilst texting. He was a very talented surgeon).
I'd just refer to Onslow from Keeping up appearences if you want to make that point ;-)
That's all certainly true, @CommanderRoss plus those are clearly Americans so it's not really the best image to use to make a point about how those who voted for Brexit were stupid and ill-informed.
Indeed.
Hence why I wrote, "people like these".
And that's why I said you should be more careful, as 1. the guy might just as well be a Uni professor and 2. Americans aren't allowed to vote.
In Britain.
;-)
The bigotry and racism will continue to fester and spew also (no matter whether you want Brexit to happen or not). It is a sad and even fearful time. Absolutely horrible, and I feel for all my British friends. I have to believe the British people will overcome this, but it will take time and some things will be irreparable. Very sad indeed. No way to paint this with a "happy" brush at all.
Yes, I agree with both of you. This is a huge moment in history, and we will need to try our best, our hardest to make the future be good, and not go into a dark period where the rich rule, the power hungry gain more power at the expense of all other people, intolerance is championed blatantly, and humanity is ground down. To put it in simplest terms, but yeah. These are very serious times indeed.
The British people who will be hit/affected the most by a hard Brexit (the North, Midlands and Wales) have voted for the Tories in overwhelming numbers. And this is after a majority of people in these areas voted in favour of Brexit in the 2016 referendum in the first place. So I am sorry to say, but there is no ''we will try our best'' or belief/faith to be given to the British population when they knowingly vote against their own interests.
And this will be the same answer I'll give when Trump gets re-elected in the 2020 US election, which I believe is a very real possibility.
I won't mention the U.S. scene here. It will get resolved.
A no-deal Brexit seems like a good choice, as the majority of those that will be the most affected by that decision have voted in favour of it twice. So I'd say giving up is also a good choice as ''giving up'' is precisely what a majority has voted for.
As for the US scene, my final comment is that their current situation will (hopefully) be resolved when Trump (hopefully) leaves the White House in January 2025.
Doubtful.
It's one thing for the people to "have spoken", it's another thing entirely to make the political magic happen.
Brexit!
When do we want it?
Now!
How do we do it?

Sums it up nicely. :D
So yes, it is time to give up as it's the only option you have left. This election's results make it clear that even a second referendum would likely end in favour of Brexit yet again. If 3.5 years changed absolutely nothing, if 3.5 years actually made it worse (people are now willingly voting for a No-Deal), then I do not know what possible solution anyone can come up with.
Anyway, I'm off. God bless us everyone, as Tiny Tim says. ;) We'll need it.
