Boris will suddenly find himself unable to fund what he promised to do. As
interest rates finally rise he cannot borrow at a low rate any more. He will be castigated because his new brexit bill causes hardship for refugee children being reunited by government money, not happening, and there will be a border in the Irish see and Scotland will build a wall and declare UDI and apply to stay in the EU.

As interest rates finally rise Its far from clear that they will do any time soon. he cannot borrow at a low rate any more. Doesn’t need to when the UK is no longer sending the EU billions a year. He will be castigated because his new brexit bill causes hardship for refugee children being reunited by government money, not happening, With the majority he has got and Labour imploding spectacularly now that Corbyn and McDonnell have fallen on their swords and Swinson not even an MP anymore, he doesn’t have to give a damn about that. and there will be a border in the Irish see Wrong. and Scotland will build a wall They aint got the money to pay for one. and declare UDI and apply to stay in the EU. And the EU will tell them to go and **** themselves because they will legally still be part of the UK. "Andy Burns" wrote in message ...

From the BBC results table*: Conservatives (leave) 13.9M Labour (on the fence, so don't count and paid dearly for it) 10.3M Lib-Dem (remain) 3.7M SNP (remain) 1.2M All the rest (various opinions, but none large enough to make much difference) 1.7M Which gives Leavers (Conservatives) 13.9M; Remainers (Lib-Dems and SNP) 4.9M. Total who expressed a strong commitment one way or the other 18.8M. Leavers 74% of the committed; Remainers 26%. I'd say that was a pretty convincing majority for leaving. Of course, if JC hadn't sat so firmly on the fence (and had that fence right-royally shoved up you-know-where by the voters, with a worse result than even Michael Foot in 1983, which has to be some sort of an achievement) then the Labour votes could be included into one or the other totals. But as he didn't, they can't. As I said up-thread, people who were strongly committed to remaining could have voted Lib-Dem, so the Labour votes can't be assumed to have voted either way, and certainly not to remain. * http://tinyurl.com/s3gj2yh I thought London was for remaining generally and they tend to vote Labour so you might need some adjustment to the above. My Lib Dem vote was wasted as Harpenden and Hitchin retained their *toe the line in hope of promotion* MP despite voting remain in the referendum. I don't think a future opportunity to say *I told you so* is a desirable objective so would prefer the issue to go away. -- Tim Lamb |

Industries destroyed, Odd that the unemployment rate is the lowest its ever been for decades. And **** all industry depends on the UK being in the EU anymore. At most arguably a few operations like Japan that needed to pretend to be manufacturing in the EU to avoid tariffs on what comes from Japan and which found it convenient to do that in a country that has english as its national language. Nissan has pulled out anyway and the new free trade agreement between the EU and Japan means that that lie on where the cars are made no longer matters. And there is very little of the remaining UK car industry is UK owned anymore anyway. You can be sure that the current owners will be making those involved in negotiating a trade agreement between the UK and the EU allows their operations to carry on as they do now. the UK coming apart, Scotland may well try to leave but it remains to be seen if they even get another referendum, let alone a result to leave the UK. And even if that does happen, its hardly the end of civilisation as we know it. The UK survived Eire leaving fine. chaos for Europeans in the Uk and Brits in Europe, More remoaner lies. racism and victim blaming will be unleashed, More remoaner lies. all the yobs will be shouting 'we didn't vote for this you traitors!'.

Can you do simple maths? If so, add up all the votes for the leave parties. Tory, Brexit, DUP. Now add up the votes for those who advocated remain or a second referendum. Labour, LD, SNP etc. And give us the result. We're leaving, get over it. All I was asking for was Turnip to provide the figures proving that the majority voted for this government. Hardly a difficult thing to find out, rather than just telling lies. If you want the answer to irrelevant questions, do your own research. However, being a socialist, you expect to be spoon fed: The Referendum: Leave 17.4m | Remain 16.1m By Constituency: Leave 406 | Remain 242 By Constituency Party: Labour - Leave 148 | Remain 84 Conservatives - Leave 247 | Remain 80 By Region: Leave 9 | Remain 3 As for the Election: Under the UK system, in simple terms the party which is in the best position to form a Government - generally the one with a majority in the HOC, even if that means forming a coalition. You seem to struggle with this concept, perhaps it is the numbers. Have a look at the post election reports in the media- there were several maps which showed the UK covered in Blue, even in areas which (in previous years had always been red). It is common knowledge Labour have adopted the anti-Semitic policies of their fellow socialists- the Nazis- but since the election they have shown the denier capabilities of the HIAG. |

Good to see your glorious leader won the argument: https://www.theguardian.com/politics...ity-for-change So, Remain is the best policy but the electorate didn't agree. |
