Lib "dems" Not Very Democratic

[CrapAtCryptics]

121,000 members considering a vote to scrap Brexit

17.4 million want Brexit the numbers dont add up - not quite sure who they think they are appealing to.

the 16.1 million who voted remain perhaps?

They were probably already included in those numbers, bednobs. Not "extra".

[bednobs]

dont get your response pixie

[pixie374]

Sorry, bednobs. I meant we have already added the numbers of how many want to leave and how many want to remain. If these 121,000 people didn't vote, that is their own decision. It is unlikely to be 121,000 'extra votes'. Unless their belief is that their opinion is just more important than someone else's.

sorry still dont understand,! c@c was asking who the lib dems are going to appeal to if they vote to overturn brexit without another referendum, and i just think they are hoping to appeal to remainers

Their leader must be bonkers! Does she think that all LibDem supporters voted to remain in the EU?

[Old_Geezer]

Only those who don't care about democracy unless they get their own way. More likely to show everyone that they were unfit to sit in parliament.

In any case if they succeeded it would end the pretence that we had democracy, and the situation would degenerate to a, 'do anything to get your own way as nothing that went before ever matters', state for the nation. A dangerous thing to create.

Here is another "thought". In London more people voted to leave than voted for Khan. In Scotland more people voted to leave than voted SNP. In Wales more people voted to leave than voted for Plaid Cymru. In those 3 examples guess which of the two options makes the most noise?
