Common fallacy.  The UK does indeed have a written constitution. It's just not written down all in one place.

Try reading the judgement again.

You're beginning to sound a little bit like someone from the opposite side of the argument.

I have a right to an opinion and I think those voters got it wrong.

Hopefully the next set (of voters in a referendum) will see sense

Just saying...

Remainers (left holding the Brexit baby after the Leavers… left): “WTF?”

Leavers: “We voted Brexit, now You Remainers need to implement it”

Remainers: “But it’s not possible!”

Leavers: “The People Have Spoken. Therefore it is possible. You just have to think positively.”

Remainers: “And do what exactly?”

Leavers: “Come up with a Plan that will leave us all better off outside the EU than in it”

Remainers: “But it’s not possible!”

Leavers: “Quit with the negative vibes. The People Have Spoken.”

Remainers: “But even you don’t know how!”

Leavers: “That’s your problem, we’ve done our bit and voted, we’re going to sit here and eat popcorn and watch as you do it.”

Remainers: “Shouldn’t you do it?”

Leavers: “It’s not up to us to work out the detail, it’s up to you experts.”

Remainers: “I thought you’d had enough of experts”

Leavers: “Remain experts.”

Remainers: “There are no Leave experts”

Leavers: “Then you’ll have to do it then. Oh, and by the way, no dragging your feet or complaining about it, because if you do a deal we don’t want, we’ll eat you alive.”

Remainers: “But you don’t know what you want!”

Leavers: “We want massive economic growth, no migration, free trade with the EU and every other country, on our terms, the revival of British industry, re-open the coal mines, tea and vicars on every village green, some bunting, and maybe restoration of the empire.”

Remainers: “You’re delusional.”

Leavers: “We’re a delusional majority. DEMOCRACY! So do the thing that isn’t possible, very quickly, and give all Leavers what they want, even though they don’t know what they want, and ignore the 16 million other voters who disagree. They’re tight trouser latte-sipping hipsters who whine all the time, who cares.”

Villain.....

That could have come from an episode of "Yes Minister".

Very witty, very funny.

Probably a bit true.

Brilliantly done.

I admit pinched the above one.


Here's one of my own:

May: "We'll not be providing a Running Commentary"

EU: "For the Running Commentary, click here": http://uk.businessinsider.com/david-davis-government-wants-single-market-brexit-article-50-2016-11?r=US&IR=T

Incapable, incompetent, delusional.

Definitely my last post on this. Circles I do not go around too often  :)

This guy sums it all up for me. This is why I want to leave the EU.

The end  :)

Trouble is that the reality is even sillier than any satire show could write. Dangerous Davis has been over to chat up the MEPs leading the negotiation on the EU side. As he came away they said they hadn't got a clue what he was talking about. This thread has shown why.
