Off Topic EU deabte. Which way are you voting ?

Is Jeremy Corbyn really more unelectable than Boris the Buffoon, Gove the Gormless or Nigel the Nasty. I don't think so . I think that he did not expect to upset the Tory-lite hierarchy of the Labour Party and was not really prepared for the job but party members voted for him above those they saw as too close to the old guard. The fact that they were taken by surprise that they actually had a socialist in the party must have been one hell of a shock, showing how out of touch with their members they really were.If he is given a chance he will do more for the people of this country than any PM since 1951.
Those who say that we should now all unite and look forward, you cannot be serious. Why on earth would I unite with unthinking people who have screwed things completely for my kids and their kids as well if they decide it's worth the risk having any.
As some of the claims of Leave are now shown to be false and designed to trick the gullible into voting for them, called fraud in any other walk of life, the country should be allowed the opportunity to reverse this referendum decision.

 

In my view, he's far too left wing. Far too extreme. That kind of extreme position tends to scare voters off.

Personally, I think he's a utopian dreamer, but that's my personal opinion. In general terms I an convinced that he's completely unelectable. Which is why senior members of his party want him out.

 

does anyone else think that the Brexit decision took the government by surprise?
no one seems to know what to do next.
Cameron seems to have caused all this furore and then put his hands up and said "its nothing to do with me"
its like Iraq all over again.

 

Absolutely. Forget the markets for a while, all it takes for a recession to turn into a depression is for Joe Bloggs to say "I'll put off replacing the car/washing machine/vacuum cleaner for a year til I know what's happening with my job".

This is not just about traders in the square mile staring at screens with their heads in their hands. This is about real people whose real lives just got a lot more precarious. Here and in Europe, and every place else for that matter.

 

I don't think anyone was taken by surprise. It's just a waiting game for now while everyone gets the reactionary soundbites out of their systems.

Give it a week or so and then the serious business of formulating a 'detailed' exit strategy can begin.

 

Cameron's washed his hands of it, so nothing is going to happen until he's replaced.

Oh and btw even Leave didn't expect to win ffs.

 

Farage said that if the referendum was close, it would have to be rerun.
I think that was if he was on the losing side.

(EDIT) if it was rerun, Im sure that he'd lose.

 

As detail strategy should have been formulated before the vote not 10 days after.
There should have been full page adverts in Saturday's papers explaining what comes next in order to reassure people.
They should have been everywhere explaining exactly what the plan was.
Before the result Johnson, Gove and Farage whete never off our TVs but since Friday they've been nowhere to be seen. The only logical reason for the complete silence is that they did not expect to win and have no idea what to do next.
As for Labour. All the MPs acting like they know how Labour could and should have got their voters out to support the stay vote yet most of their own constituencies voted out so who the **** are they to complain?
Both parties are now engaging in another vanity leadership fight while millions are worried about their futures.
And politicians wonder why no one trusts them.

 

It won't be rerun. Sturgeon & co will do,their best to stick a spoke in it, that's for sure.

But eventually somebody has to activate article 50. It just might be some time before they find somebody brave, or foolhardy enough to do it.

 

It's already been admitted, mate. The leave campaign have no strategy.

What a **** up!....

 

I voted out but am against it being rerun...a massively dangerous precedent would be set which undermines democracy if it is rerun IMHO.

 

Of course he'd lose if it was re-run. It's only post-referendum that a lot of people have got to grips with what the vote was about.

Boris has admitted again today that it wasn't really about immigration so all those muppets who voted Leave thinking that the unelected Nigel was going to get the foreigners out now realise that they voted to keep the immigrants here but make themselves poorer.

 

As the PM should have had a back up plan its his fault, not the Outers, they are not the Government are they?

What a **** up!...

 

For Tobes

 

You voted for something you didn't understand.

You've been mugged off.

 

You mean like your beloved Nigel, who's not even an MP? Where is he, btw, as he helped orchestrate this **** up, I think he should be here to tell us all his great plan for the way forward!

Oh, wait a minute, it's get rid of all the immigrants!

 

Funny thing is London is not the largest populated area, the SE is and they said we want out.

 

I voted IN.<shrug>

 

He is on the case, building gas chambers, you need to just accept Brexit. and move on

 

its a wonder cos they get a **** load of EU money.
