OT: The ultimate hypocrite. DON'T READ IF OFFENDED BY POLITICAL FREDS

[TSANHO]

Thanks for that Tsanho.
No, I'm with Driller, can't remember a 3rd World War being mentioned, only the 2nd, quite a bit!
'Leave means leave', "brexit means brexit'...you know, I've no idea why they ever bother making dictionaries, there's no need.
But your trouble is that 'leave' means many, many different things. Isn't that why all the tories have been fighting like cats in a bag for the last 3 years?
And last, that old chestnut 'get over it'. Democracy is about fighting for what you believe in. There's a majority to remain now, nobody's getting over anything

There’s a majority to Remain now? I must have missed that vote, bugger. There was also a majority to remain prior to the original vote if you remember....right up to polling day. Pay no attention to whatever bizarre mainstream opinion polls you are clinging on in hope to and accept that democracy is being served.

See above the story in one of the daily toilet roll supplements about WW3. Even if it is absolute rubbish, this is much akin to advertising. The many hard of thinking that voted to remain would have seen this garbage and been scared into voting to remain....like many were scared into voting to leave due to immigration. These things work their way into the consciousness of people, that’s why they do it....

The paper didn't cover itself in glory there did it? So, fair point.
Polls are all we have, 51.89% to 48.11% was way too close for what's happening now and polls have been showing staying in the EU is up for a long time. It's not going to go away however much you wish it.

I don’t know of any, or ever participated in any polls so take little heed of them really. The only thing that does matter is that the country voted to leave.

The problem is that the people entrusted to honour the vote are caught in a catch 22 situation where they know they have to be seen to be honouring the vote but at the same time don’t want to step of the self serving gravy train....they will get around this by dragging it out with as much negative publicity as possible in the hope that public opinion will swayed so much as to hold another referendum.

This is, clearly, not what I personally want but I have so little faith in those from all parties that I can’t see anything else transpiring. They’re all so averse to sacrificing their own personal gains for the good of the country that this mess was inevitable, anyone who believed otherwise did so from a place of naivety.

I dunno, what I voted for won’t be delivered, if at all and even if we do leave, we’re still left with the selfish, self serving, inept, lying, toffs
that we’ve always had so not much will change in the greater scheme of things.

The rich will get richer, somehow, and at someone else’s expense, whilst we all argue about whether Blue or Red is better, as if it makes any difference whatsoever.

Forget the scare stories, both sides were equally culpable. The most relevant line in the article you linked is this one - "Mr Cameron's spokesman admitted the government has made no contingency plans for a Leave vote in the June 23 referendum". That's the reason we are in such deep sh!t at the moment. The Tories didn't expect to lose, and didn't have a clue what to do if we voted leave.

Incredibly, that last bit still applies.

So, it seems that Theresa's latest "strong and stable leadership" tactic is to blame everyone but herself for the complete and utter mess we are currently in. After three years of gross incompetence, it looks like we will be forced into accepting her very poor deal or the even worse option of no deal. She's tried bullying, threats, bribery and begging to get support for her deal and got absolutely nowhere. We are left with a hopelessly divided and useless government, and a Labour opposition who are every bit as bad.

Still, at least we are taking control of our own destiny!

Just out of interest, can you let us know what commie Corbyn would do ?

I thought I had made that clear by saying "and a Labour opposition who are every bit as bad".

The fact he would be no improvement still doesn't excuse how pathetic this Tory government have been.

Just as I suspected, you've done what you always do and taken the cowardly option of avoiding the question.
