    Yes, if you had voted in the U.K. In the last 15 yrs you were allowed to vote.

    It doesn't affect me so much as my family. Although I do have Uk assets, including money invested in U.K. Stocks and bonds. And a flat in London.

    Whereas, yours are entirely logical, eh? I'm sure they probably are inside that fast dimming bulb you call a brain.

    He uses a comparison to Enoch Powell as a compliment. I don't even know where to start with that, to be honest.

    She's trying to position herself as the voice of the working man, laughable isn't it.

    They realise the working class vote largely went the way of leave and is trying to pander to it with meaningless sound bites and hollow platitudes.

    Meanwhile the right wing of her party can't wait to dilute workers rights once the current EU legislation is back within their solus control.

    Turkeys voting for Christmas indeed....

    That's why I couldn't stop laughing at all the Brexit voters calling it a protest to those in power.
    The EU was helping many of the areas that voted out, while our government has ignored them for decades.
    They chucked a ton of money at Swansea, for example, who then voted against them, handing power back to the people that they were trying to snub.
    Utterly bizarre.

    I immediately assumed that someone calling themselves Christian Holliday was going to be a troll, but that's a real person.
    He's a Conservative Councillor for Guildford: http://www2.guildford.gov.uk/councilmeetings/mgUserInfo.aspx?UID=134
    His own constituents voted remain.


    His own party voted remain too, including the current Prime Minister.
    I'm sure he enjoyed his career in politics while it lasted, anyway.

    What could possibly be his motivation for wanting such a moronic law to be passed?
    We are leaving the EU man! We won! What would anyone possibly have to gain from making it illegal to like the EU?!
    FFS, and this guy is an MP? Doesn't he have better things to do with his time?

    He's not an MP, he's some fat Tory councillor who's a town planner by trade

    He's an example of the kind of people who feel empowered by the Leave vote. His type are going to become increasingly more prominent in British society and politics.

    About half of the guy's tweets are demanding that people respect the leave vote and accept democracy.
    Most of the other half are his opposition to a democratically elected mayor for Guildford.
    The remainder are him talking up religious schools and religious freedom, then moaning about kids being called Mohammed.

    He's a complete ****wit and yet it's unsurprising that he holds a political position.
