Mr.United_Nations Posted December 6, 2016 #1503 Share Posted December 6, 2016 This reminds me of the Soviet Union, great and powerful nation. But filled with corruption and no free speech, life restricted. The Berlin wall comes down, mass protests in countries and start thier own republics. The collapse of the EU is following the trends of the Soviet Union imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likwidlite Posted December 6, 2016 #1504 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Having followed this thread from the beginning I've seen good and bad arguments from both sides . But the one thing that has become apparent is this: Alibongo; Condones Rape and Sexual assault as a by-product of migration and cultural misunderstanding Likes to exploit cheap labour Only believes in Democracy when it suits him Writes bigoted generalisations of people, regularly Believes only certain people should have a voice and the right to vote Voted In/Out and Didn't vote at all Can't find the lights on a Ford Fiesta.

alibongo Posted December 6, 2016 Author #1505 Share Posted December 6, 2016 I'd never been in a Ford before, only ever owned Nissans. Nissan have their light switch very intuitively on a stalk.

Don't forget: Has served in the military, but gained his combat experience from Call of Duty I can't even post in this thread any more, outside of a few stabs of sarcasm. There are some intelligent posters here, dissecting one of the most important political decisions in our country's recent history. Then there's alibongo, who's clearly a wind-up merchant, undermining any chance of real debate from either side. He'd be better sticking to the Fun and Games section. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a despicable bunch. And any of those Supreme Court numpty judges who rule that only parliament can trigger Article 50 will, in my opinion and the opinions of most Britons, also deservedly acquire the aforementioned adjectives.

One of those Supreme Court judges - who is of a eurosceptic bent - is a renowned expert on the Cathars: Lord Jonathan Sumption. I know this because he is interviewed in a one-off 2005 Sir Tony Robinson documentary - which I have on DVD - called The Real Da Vinci Code. In it, Sumption tells us of the Cathars, a group of Christians who believed in two gods, one good and one evil.

Space Commander Travis Posted December 6, 2016 #1515 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) But we should be grateful for her, bearing in mind what it could be like. The perma-scowling Frau Merkel .. Frau Merkel has spoken Angela Merkel: Theresa May cannot 'cherry pick' Brexit terms More than 1,000 CDU delegates applaud and shout as German Chancellor stakes claim for historic fourth term in office She's becoming quite... dictator-like, isn't she?

Space Commander Travis Posted December 6, 2016 #1516 Share Posted December 6, 2016 * Actually, going back to Ms. May, this story might actually be a bit more helpful, since it does take the time to quote her and allow her to explain what she might perhaps mean.. Speaking during a two day visit to Bahrain, the Prime Minister said that getting a good deal which left Britain operating within a single European market was the key thing, rather than being hung up on labels. "These terms that have been identified: hard Brexit, soft Brexit, black Brexit, white Brexit, grey Brexit. Actually, I think what we should be looking for is a red, white and blue Brexit.

She is waiting for the court ruling, which is unfair. Other people have posted here that the Brexit they voted for might not be the one we get, and given the short time frame to organise it, the sooner we know the better.

alibongo Posted December 6, 2016 Author #1518 Share Posted December 6, 2016 GMT and I are on the same side. The UK voted for Brexit without knowing what they were voting for, it was a protest vote by the disenfranchised. Lets hope May gives us a clue as to where we are heading.

The UK voted for Brexit without knowing what they were voting for, it was a protest vote by the disenfranchised. Lets hope May gives us a clue as to where we are heading. I would argue that people knew exactly what they were voting for. To leave the EU, that means to negotiate our own trade deals, control our own borders, make our own laws, control our own waters etc etc etc. The only ones who don't seem to get it is the remainers who believe they are so much more intelligent. They are the ones dissecting what they leave vote means in some desperate attempt to de-rail the will of the voters. Leave is leave, it is not hard to understand. Maybe we will not be apart of the common market, maybe we will not find it as easy to travel round Europe, maybe we will end up social outcasts. The fact is we will know even less until we start article 50 negotiations, unsurprisingly the very thing remainers are trying to block. Crikey they call themselves the intelligent ones. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crikey they call themselves the intelligent ones. they also conveniently forget the (Remain) Governments £9.3 million pound Leaflet drop to every single address the length and breadth of the Country. They also wanted to be spoon fed by the authorities. If Remainers were truly interested they'd have been more than aware that voting to Leave the EU was a Vote to Leave the single market. Alibongo on here didn't even vote, that's how interested he was during the whole campaign, the biggest vote in our country for the best part of a century, and where was he? playing call of duty probably. - its no wonder he's making mistakes and his only tool for debate is the current tactic of copy 'n paste. - he's missed it all playing on the virtual battle field. noob.

I put it to you that it was the Remainers who didn't really know what they were voting for and seem to have a vague blind faith that the expanding EU with a wobbly currency and a migrant crisis will somehow all be ok in the end - like a fingers crossed kind of thing --- a never mind if it all morphs into a european / global dictatorship kind of thing ---- because power doesn't corrupt kind of thing --- .
