The problem here is you can't have another ref. until the current one is finally carried out and we leave.
If we the UK just ignore it, which as a sovereign country we can then the European Union (Withdrawal) act 2018 would get in the way so would have to be repealed which takes an act of Parliament.
Considering that lot can't agree on anything that seems unlikely.
I really can't see the logic there, sorry.

How do you get the Board of Deputies of British Jews and the Muslim Council of Britain to agree?

Discuss Farage.

Nigel Farage under fire over 'antisemitic tropes' on far-right US talkshow

It's time this obscene character was proscribed from standing for public office or being given access to publicity.
He will say anything to further himself at the expense of everyone else.

Well yes agreed, there is no logic. At the moment we can't seem to be able to leave, we can't stay because the people hath voted to leave and we can't have another referendum...well not at this time anyway.
Totally illogical.

Sort of Shakesperian dilemna methinks

"To Brexit , or not to Brexit: that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous Brino,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by withdrawing Article 50 end them?

Which would certainly get my vote!:cool:

Agreed, but the same can be said of many serving MPs. We need to apply the same sanctions to them as well. We can’t single out one person’s behaviour and apply penalties whilst ignoring similar behaviour in others.

Or, a bit further down the page:

And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?

On Twitter today from a guy called Antifascist45.
"All over for the Tommy Robinson road show in #Blackpool. To be honest he had a good day. He seemed popular. Unless people pull their fingers out he's going to win his seat"

How about Hamlet:

Alas, poor Farage! I knew him, Robinson, a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy. He hath borne me on his back a thousand times, and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is! My gorge rises at it.

Where be your gibes now? your gambols? your songs? your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one now, to mock your own grinning? quite chap-fallen?

When is he coming down south to see us vf, we're lining up the milkshakes all ready to go !
He won't though will he, EDL got their arses kicked in my town when they dared to turn up....they didn't return.
Thing is though vf he's preaching to the converted, let him come down here to the sunny south coast and try to convince us he's right. I'll pop over Tesco's and get him a cabbage, he can talk to that.

He was down there in London a few weeks back with his Panodrama show and about 10,000 followers. Didn't you go to see him? He lives in Luton. Where about are you?
Well south west of London thank Christ. Why doesn't he try somewhere like say Southampton with it's high percentage of Asians and wave the flag there.

Seriously though vf you're completely out of touch with reality I'm afraid. let's take where I live for example, I'm right on the coast in fact I can look out of my window and see the ships, great place to live.
Close by I have a couple of really nice neighbours, Ahmed a Muslim from Bangladesh (fasting at the moment) and my great pal Piotr from southern Poland and one of the funniest characters I've ever met, a really nice chap.
Just up the road there's a new family just moved in, Muslim actually, lady wears a Burka and judging by the string of Range Rovers & BMW's parked in their drive I'd say money is not lacking.
Then there's the new private estate close by, I'd estimate 3 out of every 4 homes there are owned by people of non-british ethnic origin. also from what I can make out everyone appears to be involved in business, restaurant owners etc. Are you getting the picture? I'm surrounded by foreign wealth and frankly I don't give a toss where they come from or what their religion is...not one bit. I should say also I'm financially secure myself with two homes so I fit in very nicely around here, lucky me.
So what's my message here ? well if Tommy Robinson came here (which he won't) what would he find ?
He would find everything he despises, people from all Religions & faiths all getting on with no agro whatsoever.
If he walked through one of the shopping centres here in town sprouting his nonsense people would wonder who the hell he was, seriously he would be barking up the wrong tree. I'm joking about milkshakes being thrown, no one would take a blind bit of notice what he said. That is the reality of where I live and where I come from, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon...who ?

This fan boy stuff is boring! and quite pointless as no one is really interested in this idiot you follow, Is there any danger of you posting on topic?
