Are they including the Gibralter votes? Can Gibraltertarians (not even sure if that's a word) get access to that site or is it for UK citizens only? Can ex-pats living abroad access it? Also, does that mean we're going back to miles and gallons? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andrea Leadsom has said she'll ignore the petition unless it gets to 17.5 million... so I'd like to cordially suggest that everybody sign it. It would serve her right if this does beat that target. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/241584 Just gone through 4 million signatures...

Their tears will nourish me From the opposite perspective, of someone who was there: it was a massive crowd, with all kinds of people there from all over. "Grannies against Brexit" and babes in arms. Placards were displayed by military veterans against brexit, members of all the bloody political parties against it, people of lots of different cities and towns, and so forth, besides many others generally mocking the likes of BoJo and Farage, as well as TM, of course. With all of the rhetoric that had been going around and all of the death threats that have been sent, I had anticipated there might be some kind of confrontation with counter-protesters, or even that the march might be the target of terrorist violence. In the event, the only counterprotester I saw was an oddly dressed character to one side of the march route on a stepladder, holding up a placard claiming that "The Bible Says that Britain and Europe have Different Destinies". No doubt we will all be ignored, but it had to be done all the same. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,037 Posted March 25, 2019 Pat McFadden has been ill apparently, comes back to ask May to regret her choice of words last week. Meantime, DUP and Conservative backbenchers ripping into PM at despatch box. Crispin Blunt calls her request for an extension "the most shameful surrender by a British leader since Singapore in 1942". Andrea Leadsom still looking like a slapped Afghan hound. Joyous. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paddyfool 379 Posted March 27, 2019 Here's a tongue in cheek prediction of six possible varieties of chaos that may be coming up: https://www.thedailymash.co.uk/politics/politics-headlines/explained-the-six-possible-brexit-shitshows-20181119179543 "THE UK has reached a Brexit crossroads, but which ill-advised choice will we make and which completely avoidable shitshow will we stumble idiotically into? May deal passed by Commons This scenario, requiring half of Labour, most of the Tories and fuck it the SNP to back a Brexit deal way worse than our status quo, condemns Britain to a twilit half-life trapped in and out of the EU like a ghost haunting the place of its murder waiting for someone to investigate but nobody is. May deal rejected by Commons This scenario, considered extremely likely because everyone a) hates Theresa May and b) wants to see what will happen, gives the prime minister 21 days to come up with a new deal. 21 days for someone whose last new idea was in 1998. Come on. That’ll be worth watching. May replaced as leader by extreme Brexiter Expected to make the EU quake in terror, it will instead cause them to walk away from negotiations muttering “Fuck this,” and seal the Channel Tunnel with concrete. Britain will then enjoy a wonderful, nostalgic re-run of its glory days in George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four. Extension of Article 50 The EU decides, given the level of the debate so far, to treat Britain like a toddler told he can definitely drive Daddy’s car next weekend. Consecutive indefinite extensions will leave Britain delighted it’s getting its Brexit without realising it will never arrive. Second referendum Forcing Nigel Farage out of retirement like Rambo in the 2008 film, this restages the referendum on the basis that enough people have come to their senses or died since then. Overestimating the intelligence and underestimating the death wish of the UK sees the same result returned, to the exact vote. War After a saintly couple of centuries of not invading Europe or only doing it to be nice, Britain returns to its comfort zone and starts wars with France, Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and Belgium. Everyone sighs with relief that things are back how they used to be." 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's bad now? Wait until the shat on get an opportunity at the ballot box. Chaos will reign. I expect that a lot of people on both sides will be dissatisfied with the current mainstream parties, with the possible exception of remainer SNP voters in Scotland. Whether this will translate into fringe parties getting more of a look in, be they the greens or be they EDL... well, I'd certainly expect they'd get more votes. However, FPTP is always tricky territory for small parties, and I'm not sure that would translate very far into actual MPs. (MEPs, maybe; but we've been stuck with hard right kippers there and even the occasional BNPer for a while). Especially with the factional split of UKIP vs Farage's new "Brexit party" vs the EDL vs BNP all competing for that share of the vote. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
