London Mayor Sadiq Khan ‘Optimistic’ Brexit Can Be Stopped

Sadiq Khan is “optimistic” about the UK remaining in the European Union (EU) and argues Brexit can be “stopped” if the Labour Party backs calls for a second referendum. The Mayor of London also claimed Brexit had caused “hate crimes” and implied U.S. President Donald J. Trump was childish for criticizing him.

“What could trump the referendum result,” he said, “is us having a manifesto offer saying, we would not leave the EU, or we would have a second referendum.”

He told the Guardian: “For it to have credibility with the British public, there would have to be a Labour manifesto offer, because the public would say, not unreasonably, ‘Hold on a sec, we voted to leave and you’re now sticking two fingers up at us’.

“You’d have to spell out, in black and white, what we’d do if we won the general election.

“What could trump the referendum result is us having a manifesto offer saying we would not leave the EU, or we would have a second referendum.”

All Kahn is worried about is the invasion to continue and nothing slowing it down.

We need to keep having referendums until we get the result I want. Then, never allow a referendum again.

Yes, that is the liberal mindset. It is also the fascist mindset. But I repeat myself. Because today’s liberals ARE fascists, just without the fancy uniforms. I suppose that will come later.

“. . . refused to say that he would respect the results of this election. Now, that is a direct threat to our democracy”
- Hillary Clinton

Questioning a far-left win is a threat to democracy. Refusing to accept election results for President Trump or for British independence? That’s normal for freedom’s enemies. The Ctrl-Left disgusts me.

This is a typical reaction. Just keep voting until they get the answer they want. They have zero respect for the people

I guess in the UK now voting makes no difference.

We have some equal scum here that think the same thing.

Yet they scream everyone is ruining their “democracy”.

What a joke.

...optimistic the results of a referendum reflecting the will of the people can be stopped.

So I see the elected officials in the U.K. hold voters in contempt just like here in the USA.

Khan shut up...The majority of British people wanted Brexit..and you called President Trump childish for criticising you. President Trump is the greatest president since Reagan and you, Khan, make Bill De Blasio look like a statesman..( which is hard to do, but you did)
