I don't see them. Enlighten me. FFS - I don't know, I never said I did, why don't you go out and ask some people, I really cannot wait to move out of London, actually I don't even need to do that, I'm just going to not participate in the edf anymore - cheerio, have a great weekend all....

Yes, I've already clarified that, if you read my earlier posts - I said mea culpa OK? It was on the leaflet distributed by the Government to every household..... Anyway we now have some NHS worker at GOSH wishing a Leaver's child gets sick and doesn't get treatment (on BBC QT last night) - how personal can this get??

You make very sweeping generalisations - unless you are prepared to speak to each and every person who voted then how can you know?

AM - who's to say they're not? Are you talking about the man on the street or those 'in charge'?

It was Shaggy I think who said ill-informed moron, so I just added girly ribbon for a touch of humour, clearly lost in translation.. I adore men actually, I have very old-fashioned views on marriage and actually I do put on lipstick and freshen up before his Lordship comes home... Heaven forfend that topics on the edf get sidetracked, because that NEVER happens!

Mea culpa - it was actually in the leaflet sent out by the Government... See under "A Once In A Generation Decision" https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/why-the-government-believes-that-voting-to-remain-in-the-european-union-is-the-best-decision-for-the-uk/why-the-government-believes-that-voting-to-remain-in-the-european-union-is-the-best-decision-for-the-uk

Well that's a totally different argument - what I do know is that all my French neighbours and friends in my tiny Provencal village think that the result is brave and, given the chance, they would vote to leave the EU too... Anyway I'm not going to trouble my silly head about this any more as I must go and choose a new lipstick and ribbon for my curly hair and leave it to all you sensible men to make things better....

Shaggy Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > And your point is? My point is this - at no stage was it indicated to the electorate that Parliament would then debate the outcome - it was clearly stated, again, "This is your decision. The Government will implement what you decide". Such was the naivety and arrogance of the ruling elite (on both sides of both Houses) that they did not contemplate the effects of a Leave vote. A question was asked, an answer was given, now the goal posts are being jiggled about in a frantic attempt to appease that ruling elite.... I'm sorry if I wasn't air headed enough for you first time round, I do hope this clarifies that I am, indeed, a really stupid girly....

The wording on the ballot paper stated "This is your decision. The Government will implement what you decide" - there was no mention of Parliament being involved. Yours aye, ill-informed moronic, worthless opinoned fluffy kitten loving airhead....

I'm not sure that would work either, given that most MPs were either firmly Remain or firmly Leave. I think to say "many votes were very likely based on believing lies" is being rather disingenuous; many people I know felt patronised by the elite and made very informed choices (on both sides of the debate)....

I think it goes to the Supreme Court next.... But then what do I know, I'm just a girl who likes fluffy kittens....

I take your point, thank you - I have edited to read "possibly not impartial" - to the average Leave voter on the street, it doesn't sit well to have a senior judge who may be perceived to be less impartial, they may think he should have recused himself... I am in no way defaming anybody - I've been called far worse things than this....

No, my point is that the Lord Chief Justice is a founding member of ELI, therefore he is possibly not impartial....

Given that the Lord Chief Justice is a founding member of ELI, it was always going to go this way - shameful....

Not sure if this is irrational but..... People who read newspapers and/or magazines in shops, then put them back - the publications are there to be bought, it's not a library.....

Richard Herring in a pub up at Crystal Palace - Lord Norwood is a bit on the large size and RH thought he'd have a pop at him about it..... I replied something along the lines of "is that the best you can come up with, lame" and we walked out, think we got more laughs than RH who was a lost for words....
