OT: Old Mrs. May's fudge shoppe

[Elite_Pie]

Correct...."the will of the people" is political speak for "we know what you voted for......BUT, now we will make a few amendments to keep the business community and the bankers happy"............................"and we will keep making amendments until the 600 plus MPs agree".................sod the people BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL IDIOTS.........obviously

Surely the news that the 'Leave' campaign broke the rules (ie cheated) makes the referendum result null and void. It's conceivable that their cheating might easily have gained them a 2% swing of the vote, so I'm sure all the Brexiteers on here who are constantly banging on about fair play and democracy will agree with me.

Yep, I could go for that. Didn't the Tories break some spending rules at the last election???

Perhaps it would be a good idea if the leave began inquiries into the legality of some of the remain spending........on second thoughts, they haven't reached those levels of desperation yet and we know very well that the rules for leave and rules for remain aren't the same as demonstrated by the government leaflet, the manipulation of Obama, the protest marches.........

Surely you're not suggesting that the Conservative government was dishonest?

As expected, it's ' fingers-in- the-ears BLAH BLAH BLAH, I CAN'T HEAR YOU' whenever the subject of Camoron's nationwide Remain propeganda comes up.
Printed with taxpayers money by a German-owned company none the less.
Not to mention the taxpayer funded BBC - what price could you put on the blanket scaremongering broadcasted from day one - which, of course, is still going on.

Cameron thought a referendum would finally rid the Tory party of their divisions on Europe. That’s worked out well.

Meanwhile the US President states that he believes a foreign adversary over his own intelligence services.

Brexit and Trump. 2 cheeks of the same arse.

I find this all a bit queer.

That is quite brilliant. How long did it take you to think of that? Can we have a round of applause for Seriouspie please?

There are fact checking websites which have scrutinised the leaflet, I'd advise anyone to have a look at them. It was hardly propeganda, or indeed propaganda.

I've clicked on the link but have no intention of pressing play.
Accusing colleagues with gold-plated pensions and inherited wealth of backing Leave?
Of course there aren't any Remain voters with gold plated pensions and inherited wealth in the House Of Lords, nor are there many MP's shacked up in a picturesque village (nowhere near the Great Unwashed of her constituency) with a director of a large supermarket chain
I can only think of one.

There is plenty of scope for personal attacks on both sides, from the prominent leave politician who in public is optimistic over Brexit but in his sideline as a business consultant is advising companies that it will be catastrophic, to the ostensibly patriotic money man who outsources his company's call centres to Africa whilst raging against globalisation, and who forgot/lied about several meetings with the ambassador of a pro-brexit hostile foreign power who offered him a lucrative state-run goldmine at a knock down price (as you do, pretty forgettable really), to the man many on here regard as a god-king who twice declared defeat despite having seen exit polls suggesting Leave had won, which coincidentally allowed his associates to make a killing on the currency markets.

I suppose the point I'm trying to make is that it's futile talking about liberal elites, snowflakes, remoaners and so on because there's plenty to go round. Brexit is happening, there are only a handful more letters needed for a vote of no confidence in May, then Gove, Johnson or Rees-Mogg can take back control via a hard Brexit, if they've got the courage.

It might be better to start talking about which countries we want trade deals with, what those deals should look like, what concessions we're prepared to make in order to get them, how long it will take to get them, and so on.

Spot on driller.
