EU referendum are you in or out

[Jamesac]

Now, there's about 60 million souls on these isles. Only 17 million of them voted to leave. Were the EU to administer any kind of economic punishment beating to the majority of people, who did not....

I'll let the "could not" that follows go, because kids and teenagers are stuck, but "did not" doesn't get any kind of pass. Voting is a responsibility and these people shirked theirs. Their vote was "whatever you guys decide I'm good with", and this is the direct result. They earn the consequences, good or bad.

Lots of people in other countries want referendums too and the right to leave. Holland and Italy have been mentioned already.

Pssst Paula .. that party that wants that in Italy it's the same part that in 199x went "for a demonstration" in St Marco square in Venice with an armed tank claiming "they were going to re-create the Independent Republic of Venice" and then went on and on ( and still going ) about implementing "Federalism" ( i.e. make each one of the 21 region of Italy an independent State like in USA ) in Italy.

Hopefully they won't listen to them too much

Tell a lion to fuck off and threaten it's existence, get bit and then claim that's a good reason for telling it to fuck off an threaten it's existence in the first place.

Voting is a responsibility and these people shirked theirs.

Also, more simply, there just is no finer granularity than this available.

You can't exactly, in any feasibly pragmatic way, isolate out the folks what voted Leave and individually implement a completely different trade policy on them, per person, to everyone else who didn't.

These things just have to work on a whole country basis in international affairs. There's really no other possible way to do it.

You just have to look at the map to realize, that you in a minority on this Board. If wasn't for Scotland, Northern Ireland and London and a small bit yorkshire and few small counties. This is pretty much a landslide and it is what most brits wanted. My advice is, Move to Scotland, Northern Ireland before the 2 years are up and you then still be part of Europe. Should they decide to split from Britain.

I'm more shocked that they managed to move Gibraltar to just off the coast of Wales.

It's the political satirists I feel sorry for.

Well, pretty soon we get to defining what a country is, specifically hacking this relatively small group of islands into ever more discreet parts.

If I were you lot, I'd get some rum and put that Underworld set from Glastonbury today on the iPlayer. Just the tonic.

I've seen a load of polls on forums and they're all pretty much unequivocally stay in.

That said just about every poll on the same forums before the general election were FUCK OFF DAVE.

And Dave didn't even slightly fuck off.

He only took slightly more than one year, to be fair to him.
