Should people be allowed to vote on Brexit type issues?

The vote isn't everything. You forget that we live in a Republic and in a Republic people have rights that the majority can't vote away with a simple majority. Just as our government has designated powers that the people cannot vote away with just a simple majority.

So yea, by all means let the people vote but that doesn't mean the results of all elections are binding under our constitutional form of law.

Whose rights were voted away in Brexit?
 
Why? If you have a vote nobody asked for, they will vote about other matters. I think only nutters think anyone ever said another world war would start if we left - only that the EU had prevented war for an incredibly long time in European terms.

Fuck off Taffy, NATO prevented another war the EU did nothing except attempt to take the credit. In fact if anything, the EU nearly started a war by giving Ukraine false hopes and pissing off Russia! I have a lot of friends in Wales and the majority only want to stay in the EU because of the EU grants paid to Wales with our money.

Good point with NATO. The EU is just a pretext for government expansion on steroids.
 
Yeah, what? I thought the vote was binding.

Hey Mott, is it true the vote is not binding? And hasn't the MP already committed career suicide?

It is not binding, it has still to be ratified by Parliament. I can't see any way that they could not pass it though.
 
The will of the public was expressed in the vote wasn't it?

We have to pretend so, certainly, even knowing the voters and what they said. Cameron having created this mess, what else can anyone do? The most promising way forward, now, is to get the new Government to define its aims, and put that to the vote. The Brexit majority believed in about fifteen different things, almost all of them totally unattainable.

Seems simple enough. The Tory leadership election turns in a pro-European who tells xenophobic wankers that England needs a second referendum now that the lies of the Brexit supporters have been exposed and your Buffoon-in-chief has been backstabbed by Tory rats.

ok. We should be fair also and the EU has to lay out its future plans as well as migration quotas etc. Like the day after the referendum they began discussing the european navy. The quota that the uk will be forced to accept should be set and any deviation from that should trigger another referendum.

I mean the remain side just said stay in EU without any details of what the EU would do in the future. Does that sound fair?

Fair ? You're the twat who wants Muslims to give up Islam. Fair ? Fuck off, troll.

lets say you had a friend who you love and cherished. Would you really condemn them to live their entire life in the horror show that is Islam? or would you try and convince them otherwise?

You're typing using an alphabet with Semitic roots, numbnuts.
 
I used to think that iolo was a representative of the adult population of Wales; but after the Brexit vote, it would seem that iolo is in the minority of how they think and behave.

GOOD JOB WALES. :good4u:

The point is that the EU doesn't propose to have its cake and eat it, imperfect as it is, and we had equal rights in the decision-making process. The Brexiteers told huge lies about what was possible. They should be forced to say that if they have (as they inevitably will have) to decide between prosperity and xenophobia, between access to the market and immigration control, and say which they prefer. As a member the UK could veto all this stuff of yours: now it can't. Silly children!
