May's Government is the first in British history to be found in contempt of Parliament. May was defeated by 230 votes, the most since 1924. May has been giving accolades to MP's into bribing them to support her. The Conservatives are split between themselves, and can't even agree on what they want. The Conservatives have caused so many more problems: - NHS at breaking point, with increasing possibility of privatisation. - Education system being destroyed. - Grenfell Tower victims being treated with such disrespect and false promises. - The windrush scandal. - A UN Report declared that poverty levels in the UK were unacceptable. Statistics: •4,000,000 children in poverty •13,000 homeless veterans •6,600 MH nurses gone •350,000 children in destitution •120,000 austerity linked dead •1,332,952 Foodbank parcels •21,000 Police gone •124,000 homeless children And plenty more.

(all I hear is that it's not a likely situation). The only way would be for a general election to be called and for there to be a coalition between a weak Labour and the SNP. It's not likely, but not impossible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erotica 34,931 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 At least let's hope that the morons who voted to leave are happy now so it's not all for nothing. They thought grass was greener on the other side, but oh how wrong they were Poor is the man whose pleasures depend on the permission of another Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in very few years, they will do a referendum to enter the UE again, and the result will be yes I doubt it, I think the EU will struggle over the next decade to remain intact. Rising tensions over it's neoliberal policies will be it's demise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conservatives are more committed to Brexit whilst Labour want an extremely soft Brexit. People passionate about leaving or remaining won't vote for Labour.

Despite this political and social crisis, it's a very strong country. It might take a decade, but the grass will be greener, whatever happens.

I voted to remain but can acknowledge the pros of leaving and cons of remaining... no one knows what's best but if we're gonna leave then we're gonna leave and have to make sure it was the right decision!

Guest Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Would delaying article 50 or even calling a 2nd referendum make sense now? They’re supposed to leave in like 2 months and they’ve had 2 ½ years to negotiate this deal, what is a brief extension gonna change? And what if they call another referendum but leave wins again? Or remain wins the second one, what are they going to do, call a third one? best of three.. such a mess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EU won't allow us to extend it unless they believe it to be in their interest which says it all really... we need to leave with no deal. A second referendum would only cause more division and will most likely lead to riots so it's not a desirable route at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
