That's a hood thing, even better if there's some legal rules implemented first, with long prison sentences for proven lies.

Lol if they had done that last time there would be no one left to run the country.

Unless the EU offer a deal before article 50 there would be no justification for a second one.

Can we have a Re run in a few months, now a lot more people actually have some idea.

It's not democracy if it's built on lies. Ignorance etc.
But then government likes those things anyway.

Apparently not as that's not democracy!

Even though i guarantee remain would win by a country mile now.

If you ask me, this whole decision should have been left to the experts to decide, not people that include knuckle dragging racist kids who don't have single idea about the politics, who just saw the opportunity to get rid of the foreigners that are doing the jobs they can't be arsed to do without any clue of the repercussions of their decision.

I'm still sat on the fence even now after not voting, i still can't make my mind up on what would have been best, as i said in the other thread, had i been forced to vote i would have voted remain at the time but even now, i'm still not sure. I simply don't have the time to read the ins and outs of what could happen either way. There could be good things going out of the EU, the one thing i would be pleased about is freedom of movement within the commonwealth if that came around.

The fact of the matter is though, nobody knows what would have happened either way, if we stayed in, there would be uncertainty as the rest of the EU wouldn't trust us 100% because they would think we would still be looking for a way out, going out could even be the best decision we ever made and we could flourish under a whole load of new trade deals with countries we couldn't trade with under the EU. All we can do is wait and see.

I mean it is from an EU trade commisioner, she should know, but who wants to listen to those stupid experts.

Obviously she doesn't know a lot. There is no point having a deadline on the negotiating period if you are just going to revert to WTO rules straight off the bat.

You are showing just how a lot of people out their look at people from the North, with hate, you really do not like us do you, especially the leave voters, but let's be honest, it is the poor people your wishing the worse possible future on isn't it.

You need to get a grip, your showing how bitter and paranoid you are, and you are coming across like a spoilt brat like many more on here and out there.

they brought it upon themselves this time. The real enemy here was not the EU it was the constant neglect of the North by the likes of Osborne and the rest of his merry band in Westminster. That the EU sought to try and improve things in northern areas taht were deprived through their regeneration after a lot of the heavy industry was shut down should be testament to this.

Successive governmenst have completely failed to make any difference to northern regions of the UK and now with the potential for the most right wing Tory government ever seen, it is even less likely.

This is not about be "hating on the North", it's about the fact that the people that can't afford to take anymore punches from right wing draconian governments are unfortunately in a position where there may be more hits to come. It actually makes me sad. I spent over 8 years of my life in Yorkshire and it is truly an amazing place with some of the nicest people I have ever met compared to londoners

Another link with some fine comments. Some good replies from "Mr Fibble"

Mr Fibble is saying what everybody else is thinking :

"Problem is the referendum has finally shown the rest of us what you left whingers are really like inside and that's an really abusive vile bunch of control freaks who would happily sell there mother to the devil if it meant getting their own way, you've even been calling for the state to overturn the result, odd how you bleat on and on about how were living under a police state but as soon as you loose a single democratically decided referendum you scream for the same Police state to overturn the decision for you.
The most moronic thing of all is you still blame the devil from your ID, i.e. the dreaded right wing kipper for the result but the truth is it was the normally staunch working class Labour supporters who did for you but that's because you long ago abandoned them in favour of immigrants and asylum seekers."

Spot on.

No its not true.

  • Article 50
  • Two year negotiating period begins. Everything continues as if we are a full member for this period
  • Period can be extended by vote from member states
  • Negotiations end. Whatever is negotiated is enacted. What is not covered is left to WTO rules.

Are you sure?

I am reading things that contradict this.

:confused: thought he wasnt running due to lack of support after Gove stabbed him in the back?

Think about the situation for a second;

Why did he wait until the day of the nominations deadline?
Why has he been hiding since Friday?
Why did he write to Telegraph columns, one for leave and one pro remain?

He never wanted to stand following the result on Friday, Gove standing is irrelevant to the issue as he only announced today saying he didn't think Boris has the qualities to do it. I assume what he meant by qualities was the desire to do it.

Had he had any inkling of standing he would have been first out the gates on Monday or Tuesday.

This Brexit version of Downfall takes us inside Boris Johnson’s bunker
This famous scene from Downfall has been subtitled many times before – but this Brexit version, inside Boris Johnson’s HQ as the EU referendum result comes in, is one of the best yet

I think you are correct - effectively we will have business as usual for the next two years as per any member state under the EU, but it seems the EU will only enter into formal trade talks once we have left the EU and not before. Until those are agreed the gap will have to be covered by WTO trading rules.

EU is going set an example of us - Id very much do the same thing in their position...

EDIT: The two years grace are for us to untangle from the EU system but do not predicate us having a suitable replacement; from what Ive read two years is a laughably short time to get any trade deals settled...

ps3ud0 :cool:

the 2 years is to negotiate the leaving terms not the deals that you want thereafter. i.e it takes 2 years to agree how to untangle yourself from the EU infrastructure so that you are then in a position to do what ever you want thereafter.

too many unicorn fantasists think that it's 2 years to give us everything we would want. Unfortunately it's not

:rolleyes: and people still don't have a clue.

could it be because a no ones pressed the button and secondly even if they do press the button everyone has come out and basically said that we will stay in single market.

if article 50 goes ahead and we don't stay in single market, expect it to properly implode.
