He just wanted to get rid of UKIP so he could shut up the right of his party and get the UKIP vote back. His advisors told him an unlosable referendum would do the trick. Turns out it wasn’t unlosable. Had they thought for a minute they might lose it, they might have given some thought to the potential repercussions and perhaps some thought to how they phrased the simple yes no question... A binary question that doesn’t really have a binary answer.
Plan B looks wonderful and so different to plan A. It will make all the difference and get everybody united.
There’s a view he thought he would not win an overall majority, in which case the liberals would have stopped him having the referendum
The whole political elite from all sides are deliberately ****ing it up. Undemocratic, self serving, traitorous, bastards the lot of them
What saddens me the most is the way delusional offspring follow the family predilection for a particular political party. We've ended up with the Parliament we deserve. Vote independent next time...based on ability not the colour of the rosette.
Always been party policy..... All options on the table but in order of preference - a deal that meets their tests, a general election and then if not all options are on the table to stop no deal. I think they will need a 2nd ref to get through an election - as in they will go into the election on an official policy of we will renegotiate a deal with Brussels and then put that to the public - that deal or remain as a way of keeping both sides of their support on board.
I think currently it’s more about the Tories than Labour. They have failed to deliver anything yet have allowed May to remain as PM. The Can Kicker is almost out of space to kick and seems to have few if any options she is prepared to go for. I know all about Labour policy. And have my cynical views on why it says what it says. Unless the Tories decide an election is the best route out of this, Labour won’t get one. Anything could happen, May’s deal could get through even. Delaying art 50 and referendum looks increasingly likely, the result of all this is anyone’s guess - other than the UK has been diminished by all of this and the repercussions will continue.
Drawing a long bow, but don't you have any generals with any guts, enough to take over the government? After all, in an EU army most of them would lose their jobs. Pity the queen doesn't make some kind of decision. I know she is not 'politically' supposed to, but surely she would rather live in Buck House with her family than have Angela as a lodger, or landlady.
A coup by unelected military or ruled by unelected monarchy. Brexiteers sure love taking back control....
You haven’t been following then. He’s one of your mates, wants Brexit. Has consistently voted against the EU over his whole political life, called for art 50 to he triggered immediately after the referendum, has been dragged kicking and screaming to even this point by his members.
Not really an answer. He does not want a referendum, if the Tories implemented Brexit he’d be quite happy with that, especially if he can avoid the blame.
I didn't realise it was a question I'll bet you really believe that the hunchback in No10 wants to leave the corrupt EU too
