a reply to: shooterbrody

You're welcome, sorry for doing a Theresa May the first time you asked and dancing around the topic without directly answering it, so you had to ask again ha ha

oh, sorry, it was for the
"I've changed my mind....I'm all for a second referendum on this deal. " comment.
i thought i had linked to it, but i linked to myself.
oh, i did link it now i check.
well what was unclear then?
you said another referendum.

a reply to: username74

FFS.

What is that supposed to mean?

Debate and discuss - pretty simple really.

As was my explanation as to why I support another referendum and what question should be asked in that referendum.

a reply to: Freeborn

I'd support a referendum on the actual deal, but not a question asking 'again' if we want to leave the EU.
The question I would support is 'this deal' or 'WTO no deal', no problem with that as a referendum.

a reply to: CornishCeltGuy

That's exactly what I've stated several times in this thread - no In/Out referendum but a vote on acceptance of this deal or not.
If we don't accept the deal then its No Deal.

What could be simpler?

a reply to: Freeborn
True, the calls for a second referendum about EU membership are lame, terms of the deal though, I'll buy that in a referendum.

a reply to: CornishCeltGuy

I would agree on that, too. All this is making my brain hurt, though.

a reply to: CornishCeltGuy

With such a referendum either way a legal precedence is set and the people get to decide rather than that shower of #e in Westminster.

Referendum on the terms of the deal seems popular with remainers and leavers, maybe it is the way forward.
I'll be voting 'no deal' WTO rules.

hey! lets have a referendum about a referendum!
why can no one see that we are getting railroaded by a corrupt criminal cabal masquerading as politicians and civil servants.

As I said I do think it's a problem ss its a disgrace that so few people earn enough to pay income tax.

Eh? You pay income tax on earnings over£11850 per annum (going up next year). I don't know any adults that earn less than that?

You might need to broaden you circle then.

So you really know adults in full time work that earn less? If so, they earn far less than minimum wage. I know part timers that earn that, part timers that earn less too. Also unemployed through to a couple of people in the top 1000 richest in the nation - quite a broad circle really.

But people in full time work should be earning that amount easily.

I thought it was well established that referendums have no legal precedence in the UK? So another one would be equally pointless, whatever it was about.

I have millionaire mates and minimum wage mates, everyone is happy unlike whinging Scots.
Maybe the sea air keeps us all happy?
I'm effectively living on minimum wage because I only work 2 or 3 days a week, but I haven't got the full sky package, iPhone contracts for all the kids, and a thousand £'s sofa on credit so I do alright.
Scottish whinge bags.

a reply to: Flavian

Maybe we should make sure that the results of referendums are made legally binding as well as morally binding.

It should be simple - we tell the politicians that's what we want and they deliver.....unfortunately its all arse about face. We allow the people who we elect and pay their wages etc to moralise and dictate to us, its about time we changed that.

a reply to: Flavian

hate to break it to ya but most care jobs, van jobs and service jobs pay around min wage.
less to under 18s.
thats what happens when you sell your industry overseas, and turn your economy into sevice and financial. 80% ?!.
oh, and import half the world on benefits in your already overcrowded degraded infrastructure.

a reply to: Freeborn

The Scot's will still whinge, it's in their genes lol
