Arrogance Personified

[rich47]

I am afraid I do not hold out much hope of agreement in the Commons while Mrs May continues to exhibit such dismissive arrogance. Did she not hear the result of her crushing defeat. Roll on no brexit.

[murraymints]

it's NOT best out of 3..the people have spoken !

[Old_Geezer]

A new referendum held before the previous one has been enacted, in order to judge it, is ridiculous. But we all understand it's the only hope those who wish to destroy the enactment of the last referendum, has.

But no one is going to waste money, find the extra time in indecision, nor make the country more split than it already is, pandering to that undemocratic desire. If leave won by the same amount again the 2nd referendum would have been pointless, if the leave vote increased it still wouldn't silence the dissenters who can't get behind their country's previous decision, and if by some fluke, the fear stories resulted in a remain win it'd then be 'one each' and a worst state than we presently are, but with out nation looking like idiots to the rest of the world having made a good decision, spent years trying to progress it, then getting cold feet and vacillating. So forget this nonsense about there being anything beneficial about an EU style "wrong answer, vote again" demand.

I believe we will never leave, or leave in name only, whilst being tied in.
Why?
Because the rich and powerful elite are unstoppable in their desire to keep us down.
The CBI is funded by the EU, Blair and Soros pour money into front groups, and project fear is awash with money.
The Great Unwashed is perplexed and will be won over with bread and circuses.

//If Mrs May can change her mind from remainer to brexiteer why cannot other people? //

When did she do that? She's always been a Remainer.

[Gromit]

May will be Prime Minister, and Conservative Party leader on 29th March 2019.
If her version of Brexit is not a huge success (it is unlikely to be), then, when the General Election eventually takes place, the nation will blamethe Tories and Corbyn will get a massive landslide that will keep him in power for 8-12 years.

Why should they?

// The CBI is funded by the EU //

Nah, the CBI is funded by its members. Its members are cross Party but are generally more conservative leaning.
80% of CBI funds come from non EU sources. So to state that the EU funds it when just a small amount of EU money trickles to it is an outright lie. A lie often propagated by the far right Moggs and Farage contingent. (Speaking of which, weredo UKIP get 93% of their income from? - Go on, have a guess).

[Theland]

The R.S.PCA. .?

[Gromit]

Theland,
I have to confess, I now realise my info is out of date.
After securing 24 MEPs, the party was getting £3million annually from the EU.
Sadly, 17 of them have now defected, so the 93% I quoted is boundto be wrong.
Apologies, I did not mean to mislead (just didn’t notice the reduction to just 7 MEPs).

[Theland]

Is this an, "egg on face," moment for me?
Can I have a final cigarette, a brandy and a blindfold?

Very few CBI members are "conservative". They're mainly big "C"s.
