So a dumb person can come out and say I voted for trump and expected such and such and I didn't know!

Sorry but it doesn't work that way. :roll:

The only people crying are the original people that voted to remain. They can't hack that they lost and Britain is leaving the EU. They can't hack that The Holy Ghost is PM and is gonna get things done and Britain will be out in a few weeks come what may.

Everyone else is fine with it.


No. Voting for Trump could only have one outcome. Trump in office where he may or may not do what he promised. That's standard expectation.

In contrast the UK "Leave mandate" could be with a good deal, an average deal, a bad deal, or no deal at all.

The very minimum they can do at this point is do another referendum asking the people if they want to leave with no deal, or May's deal as these are the only 2 options available.

Without wishing to be repetitive, the option was 'Leave' or 'Remain' and we voted 'Leave' by a significant majority...

To be more specific, the voting paper did not have a spectrum of 'Leave' or 'Remain' options, just the binary choice...

And 'Leave' was the choice chosen... :wink:

The last thing I'd want is to be repetitive myself.
Are you sure you followed the discussion?

And yet, the crocodile tears from the MSM continue to this day who try and challenge the election of Trump with bogus claims of Russian Collusion and other things which the American courts have already thrown out based on no evidence.

Referendums are the same Pyro. It's clear cut. Either the single issue is passed by the people or rejected by the people. the people voted for BREXIT.

Not only that, but Parliament voted to commence Article 50 and this was explained to be the one way street towards BREXIT whether there is a DEAL or "NO DEAL" and Britain exits on WTO terms. Parliament also rejected the last EU deals so NO DEAL is the default. Parliament did this.

Parliament voted in favour to enact Article 50 so overwhelmingly. So the one way road towards BREXIT has commenced. Britain WILL BREXIT and this can't be stopped unless of course Parliament votes to withdraw this legislation which they can't do because the numbers are not there to do such a thing. :D

What were the rules...?

For a 'win' the requirement was 50% +1 wasn't it...?

So if Remain had put as much effort into campaigning as they have into whinging and whining about the result they might have squeezed 50% +1 and you'd have been delighted with the result.

But history tells us a different story.

So yes, I'm happy to call that 3.78% or 17.4 million votes significant... :lol:

So stop your pathetic whinging... :roll:
