Anti Brexit Parade

[fender62]

the parade in london against brexit, are these people anti britain and not like sovereignty, prefer to ruled over by non elected entities, or better still be ruled by germany and her pet france, with unfettered illegal migrants given a welcome and a ferry service to europe.

Jeez, I didn't realise that you were that old or I wouldn't have asked.

:) I was born in 1998 Jack, so 14 years before 'my time' but seriously if we don't bother to learn about our history, recent and older then we are in danger of repeating a lot of avoidable mistakes and even the most stalwort Thatcherite has to be aware that she had no love for the Shipbuilding industry. x

[Jackdaw33]

I agree with you there, Denton. I was born and bred in Wallsend. Once the Rising Sun Pit closed it was the beginning of the end.

[Baldric]

As a point of interest,
more coal mines were closed in the 1960s and 1970s under LABOUR than under Thatcher. Labour closed 331 mines in the 60s and 70s.

[Jackdaw33]

I wasn't going to mention that, Balders. Rather inconvenient for our left-leaning ABers.

[Baldric]

Oh well, never mind.

[kvalidir]

True enough Baldric, but how many shipyards were closed?

[Baldric]

I had my Google for today, so it's your turn.

[kvalidir]

I'll have a look in a minute, I do try to be fair despite my left wingedness you know :)

[anneasquith]

Calm yourselves brexiteers, its only a protest match. Surely you are all confident enough in your government to disregard this. May said brexit is brexit . isn't it ? :-)

[tonyav]

jambutty People are losing their jobs hand over fist anyway these days, banks are closing, large stores are closing, the high street is dwindling rapidly. So is that Brexit's fault?

[gulliver1]

Oh dear, Brexiteers getting frightened. GOOD!

[Baldric]

So what do you see as the advantages of staying in the EU then Gulliver?

[fraser]

Seen the news about the anti brexit march, not a mention about the pro brexit march also taking place today!! I wonder why????

[tonyav]

Would that have been on BBC by any chance, fraser ?.

[fraser]

ITV and BBC tonyav both are same!! Peddling fake news!! I duck down when the left and the libs come on !!!!

[gulliver1]

22.01 Says it all fraser.

[gulliver1]

Must admit, it was a good turnout for the anti Brexiteers . It will be nice when we have a second referendum, now that the people who voted out the last time have realised the mistake they made , and have come to grips with it, and vote this time to stay.
It was not their fault , they did not know what they were doing.

[fraser]

Gulliver1 you won't get a second vote the British people have voted to exit the EU, get over it and start believing in Britain.
