Eu referendum whats your vote

Very interesting Buzzer, but just one point, how was Joan of Arc a traitor? :unamused:

Here we go:

theguardian.com/politics/20 … rexit-deal

EU member states are demanding free movement of people and access to our fishing grounds .

Well they can go ■■■■ themselves.

I can see that some people, Buzzer, Bewick, and CarryFast, among others (correct me if Im wrong gentlemen) are keen and eager for Brexit? I see that they are up for and keen for Brexit in whatever form it comes. As they say "Its what we voted for".
Fair enough. I dont agree with you but accept that is your point of view. Is that though true for ALL Brexit voters? Did some who voted for Brexit expect something different? I certainly didnt vote for Brexit, but even after the vote didnt expect us to be in this current situation! Heres a few little thoughts.

Firstly for the conspiracy theorists…
washingtonpost.com/news/wor … 8cc4a81d99
As the Washington Post notes it`s hard to check on what the Brexit campaign was promising pre vote. They took down their web site pretty sharpish.

But there is still info out there of course.

More money for the NHS
Vote Leave’s battle bus said: “We send the EU £350 million a week. Let’s fund our NHS instead”
“Instead of sending £350 million per week to Brussels, we will spend it on our priorities like the NHS and education.” – Vote Leave briefing
“After we Vote Leave on 23 June, the Government should use some of the billions saved from leaving the EU to give at least a £100 million per week cash transfusion to the NHS.” – Michael Gove, Boris Johnson, and Gisela Stuart

“If we Vote Leave, we will be able to increase funding to science and still save billions” –Vote Leave

We were told repeatedly in the run up to the referendum that there was zero chance of German industry allowing us to leave the EU without a good trade deal.
“Within minutes of a vote for Brexit the CEO’s of Mercedes, BMW, VW and Audi will be knocking down Chancellor Merkel’s door demanding that there be no barriers to German access to the British market," said David Davis, now the Brexit Secretary, during the referendum campaign.
Except it turns out that they are doing the exact opposite.
Germany’s industrial giants have robustly said they do not want the Single Market put at risk by allowing lower-priced rivals to flood the EU with cheaper products by a British back door outside the EU.

In one of the most egregious examples of scaremongering in modern politics, the Vote Leave campaign released posters announcing: “Turkey (population 76 million) is joining the EU.”
It’s not.
Turkey applied to join the European Economic Community in 1987 but its chances of joining the EU have all but collapsed. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said in an election debate this month that the “fact is clear that Turkey should not become an EU member”.

In the final-leg run-up to the referendum last year, David Davis – who was Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union – painted a picture of the UK’s negotiator darting not to Brussels but to Berlin to strike a bespoke trade deal “immediately after Brexit”.
He anticipated that similar deals could be reached with the French who would want to protect food and wine exports, with Italians who will want to ensure its fashion industry does not take a knock, and with the Polish.

I won`t go on. You get the idea.
OK, some who voted for Brexit are still happy to go, and want out now. At any price. You are of course entitled to that view.

BUT are those who thought that the Leave Campaign was telling the truth about leaving, who believed we could have a relatively easy and painless exit, and actually be better off, still happy with the way things are turning out?

Brexit at any price may be what some of you voted for.
Is it what 52% voted for ■■?

Very interesting Buzzer, but just one point, how was Joan of Arc a traitor? :unamused:

It depends on which side of the inter French power struggle that was the Hundred Years War you’re on and understanding the difference between heresy and treason.As for me I’d have refused to fight in the Hundred Years War on the grounds that I ain’t fighting for the foreign imposed Plantagenet fiefdom and occupation masquerading as ‘English’ in their private foreign French power struggle.Which is what Joan of Arc should have done and kept well out of it all.Just as I’d refuse to fight for the EU against Putin.No doubt Buzzer would have had me hung drawn and quartered for the former while it’s anyone’s guess what Juncker would do about the latter. :wink:

The EU can’t demand anything assuming that secession ( leave ) means what it says on the tin.IE which part of the words return of sovereignty.including immigration policy and access to fishing rights don’t they understand.

Oh wait they know that the ‘referendum’ was always a one sided scam of remain if we voted remain and remain if we voted leave and no problem of the Brit government,including the Royal perogative,ever standing against the EU.

I know exactly what the Brexit campaign was promising ( full return of sovereignty including immigration and fishing rights ) because I’ve kept all the surplus campaign leaflets which I helped to deliver.Ironically and unknown to me at the time that campaign being organised by Dominic Raab’s team not UKIP.

While the idea of the remain vote trying to infiltrate and discredit the Leave vote by telling us what we voted for is just a typical and all too predictable Federal dictatorship tactic of trashing any type of vote which goes against its interests.Along the lines of keep voting and maintain the indoctrination programme until it gets the answer it wants.Of a similar type which the EU has carried out numerous times before regarding votes which have gone against it.On that note yes we do send billions to the EU in net contributions and yes that cash obviously leaves us with a massive black hole in our domestic spending budget including the NHS.While surely if the EU is so keen on pooling its contributions budget you’d think that it would also be as keen on pooling its health care budget.Remind us what the health care spending budget of Germany is v UK per head of population in that regard.

As for the Washington Post what a surprise the US Federation doesn’t like secession either and obviously sees the threat which secession within the EU presents at home regarding its own corrupted Federalist constitution,in the case of states like Texas,in that regard.

For it is " better to remain silent than to speak out and remove all doubt " Buzzer.

So why mention Joan of Arc at all then, if not to advocate a traitor’s similar death? If that is what you are actually doing, advocating that Theresa May should be burned at the stake. That, coupled with your famous ‘chucking immigrants out of aeroplanes’ (obviously you’ve been reading up on Argentina’s ‘dirty war’) quote, makes my alleged ‘belittling’ of you pale in comparison with your xenophobic rantings.

Perhaps you should take more note yourself of your last sentence. Though I see you have cocked that quote up too. :laughing:

As you no longer live in the UK Spardo surely it is you that should refrain from commenting on what is transpiring in the UK regarding Brexit. You are obviously a “dyed in the wool” Remainer whereas Buzzer and me are ardent Brexiteers and the quicker the better and we also love our Country and would never leave ! Oh! and we are both UK tax payers even though we are well past our “sell by date” ! Also as far as I’m concerned Macron is a bigger ■■■■ than any of the recent French Presidents and he is on a par with that jumped up Gay Irish ■■■■ ! Cheers Bewick.

Blimey next you’ll be saying that William Joyce should get a pothsumous pardon because trying him for treason was xenophobic.When it’s clear that the definitions of treason and xenophobia are mutually exclusive because foreign nationals can’t possibly be guilty of treason against the state which was actually Joyce’s failed defence having made the fatal error of applying for and getting British Citizenship.As for Joan of Arc firstly she suffered a heretic’s end not a traitor’s by the savage standards of the day.While ironically she obviously didn’t fit the definition of traitor for the reasons I’ve given.On that note agreed Buzzer got it wrong on all counts because Joan of Arc not only wasn’t a traitor she also didn’t suffer a traitor’s end either.

As for May it seems strange why Buzzer doesn’t seem to to think that every Tory PM from Heath to date and the Party as a whole,except for Powell,are all traitors.Although just deportation to the nearest EU state would do and no need for savage medieval type retribution.Although to be fair even if they were all hung drawn and quartered for treason that still wouldn’t fit the definition of xenophobia. :wink:

I havent read the recent posts on here so if Ive missed anything on this please accept my apologies . Donald Trump has apparently been offensive again (wow) after finding that Macron is wanting an EU army ■■? WTF . Remind me if Im wrong but didnt we stop the Germans from having an army after their last tour of Europe with most of the now EU countries taking full force of their activities. How on earth can anyone who has an ounce of compassion consider this after millions of troops paid the ultimate price for Hitlers dream . And how insensitive at a time like now for this to be mentioned …… the reasoning given is to defend ourselves from Russia , China and ……… wait for it the USA . No matter how you dress it up we would all be eating German sausage if it weren`t from our allies in the states. And Mr Trump mentioned that they are subsidising NATO due to the EU not coughing up enough of our hard earned cash ……. Do we really need to think about leaving this set of tossers lets just go

Bewick:

The way that Buzzer’s reference to Joan of Arc seems to have more than expectedly touched a nerve just adds to my suspicions that Spardo is more likely a Macron voting Frenchman rather than a Brit.Or if not has obviously turned native in thinking that France is still the rightful ruler of England in that regard.As I’ve said we backed the wrong side in 1914.

Which leaves the question why hasn’t the Queen made a clear statement that she is the ultimate commander in chief of the Brit forces,even above the UK PM and that she refuses to,or allow the PM to,delegate or cede any part of that responsibility to EU control ?.

As for Trump it’s obvious that his position,regarding Federations doing what Federations do,is laughably compromised by the fact of the content of and reasoning for the change in the US constitution from Confederation of Sovereign States and the fact that the US war of Federal aggression killed more Americans than WW1/2,Korea and Vietnam combined.

Youre a fan of Pres Trump? Still? After today when [news.sky.com/story/trump-joins- ... s-11549901](https://news.sky.com/story/trump-joins-world-leaders-in-france-for-wwi-armistice-day-commemorations-11549901) he couldnt be arsed to visit a US war grave today 10th Nov…because it was …wet…
The one who calls a “spade a shovel” ?
To pick a few of his sayings at random from the following links…
“We are keeping one promise after another.”
The Fact Checker’s Trump Promise Tracker shows that of Trump’s 100-day promises, he had kept six, broken five and taken no action on more than half of his promises.
“We’re the highest taxed nation in the world.”
Trump is simply wrong when he says the United States is the highest taxed nation in the world. The Pew Research Center, using 2014 data, found that the tax bill for Americans, under various scenarios, is below average for developed countries…
JAN. 28 “The coverage about me in the @nytimes and the @washingtonpost has been so false and angry that the Times actually apologized to its dwindling subscribers and readers.” (It never apologized.)
washingtonpost.com/graphics … bde46e4e67
www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/06/23/ … -lies.html

Of course it could all be “fake news” from the US press couldnt it? He could of course go to law to sue them if so. But maybe he is a quiet, modest, shrinking violet, not about to make a fuss about such things? Possible, apart from the 1,900 litigations he and his companies have made I spose. (And the 1,450 he has defended)

No one, certainly not me, is saying that all US Presidents, or politicians from the US and everywhere are immune to exaggeration and lies, but it is somewhat odd that probably the biggest liar of all, is the one who makes such a fuss about dishonesty in others?
C.F. might be tempted to say "you coudnt make it up". Id say someone certainly is making it up!

Spardo:

Federalists don’t know the meaning of democracy.

Define ‘poorer’ assuming you can’t possibly mean that us paying billions less each year to the EU doesn’t by definition mean billions more going into the UK economy or the resulting effects on the economy of your host state of residence,‘if’ we actually get Brexit meaning an end to the UK contribution to the EU budget.Let me guess you’ll now go to the default EU rhetoric that Brits are too stupid to do anything for themselves and therefore are totally dependent on EU imports which we have to print and borrow the cash to pay for and which the vindictive Federalist rabble will embargo to bring us to our knees.

Trump,assuming it is actually Trump and not an establishment plant double or has been compromised,can’t deliver on his promises because like Brexit here the US is applying a selective one sided version of democracy in which vote Trump means get Hilary and Obama just as we vote Leave and get Remain.
