Farage has come around to my way of thinking on 10:40 - Jan 11 with 6239 views | chicoazul | Interesting. He could of course be thinking that Brexit is now clearly going to be a disaster and he doesnt want to be the man seen as responsible for that so he is looking for a trapdoor. But I agree with him that the vote would be even bigger for Leave if they go again due to Corbyn. | |

Yes. That's why I said Farage has come around to my way of thinking. I've said for a few months now that we should have a second referendum to put this to bed once and for all. | |

Do we have a tie breaker if it is a remain vote? | |

And the winners being a L2 team who used a crooked ref to beat Man City now offering to play the game with a neutral and fair ref. | |

Of course he wants a replay - winning the referendum meant he no longer had a fight to partake in. It was over, no more having his face in the news every day. If we have another vote it's another chance for the self-serving git to get all those media appearances and attention. All about the thrill of the chase with him. | |

Farage has come around to my way of thinking on 10:51 - Jan 11 with 6197 views | Marshalls_Mullet | I think it should always have been the way that we have a second vote based on the Brexit that is negotiated. ....I dont see whats it it for Farage though? I dont think there are many people who wanted Brexit that didnt vote. I think there are a lot of people who want to remain but didnt vote. | |

Nor does Farage surely? So I have no idea why he thinks this is a good idea... I'm happy to support him on this however! | | | |

Should any political issue ever be "put to bed forever"? Doesn't sound very democratic to me... | | | |

No one has ever said 'remoaners' without sounding like they're incredibly triggered that people have a different view to them. Plus they haven't seemed to notice that 'remoaners' is a moan in itself. | |

Indeed. My dad uses the phrase a lot. I voted to remain, as did most of my friends and in general we accept that we lost and get on with it, even if we dont like it. No moaning. | |

These are the people who have been moaning about being in the EU for 40 years! [Post edited 11 Jan 2018 11:01]

Remoaners are a very different breed from the majority of people who voted remain. They are people like Lord Adonis, who Compared Brexit to appeasing Hitler, and demanded MPs “halt Brexit” and “scrap Brexit”. | |

Farage has come around to my way of thinking on 11:09 - Jan 11 with 6088 views | ElderGrizzly | I’m sure if it was 52/48 for remain, he’d take it like a man and disappear... Again, he misjudges the public mood. I think the majority of those who voted to remain, respect the vote, but want scrutiny of the leave deal and if it is worse than now, to look at how we can mitigate that ‘pain’. If that means, keeping membership of the Single Market and having some element of freedom of movement then so be it. | | | |

Whereas Brexiteers have been trying to split the Tory Party for years. It's always been a Tory right wing problem. They're the "different breed" | | | |

I suspect his reasons for wanting a second referendum are different from mine. Since June 2016 the country has become a far nastier place with recriminations of betrayal and lies being chuck from both sides. We have had nearly two years since the referendum. The predicted 2016 and 2017 recession didn't happen. Productivity is at a six year high. House prices didn't crash. Unemployment didn't shoot up. On the other side people are aware that the Boris Bus isn't a pledge and there is no guarantee of spending EU savings on the NHS. The weak pound has caused higher inflation. Immigration , thankfully, will be dependent on trade deals with countries like India and China, so those who voted to leave because they want less immigration now know the facts. There may be more immigration. So the electorate are now better informed. I would like to see a second referendum based on what we now know. I wouldn't take the electorate for granted as I did at the last election. Remain could win. But whatever the result, it would be one made with a better understanding. | |

Your last paragraph is key for me and what it should be all about. Present the deal negotiated with the EU and there can be no ‘maybes’. Simple vote - take that deal or remain as is. | | | |
