I really love the US constitution. :)
Vote to have something done and hand it over to Parliament to rubber stamp but they totally screw it up
EU cant be blamed for any of this.
Just leave.
312 to 308 is very slim and should easily be overturned.
This vote should serve to steel the will of the Brexit camp.
The history of shared currencies amongst sovereign nations is that the currency collapses due to political differences.
The EU is trying to destroy sovereignty and create a United States of Europe before that happens.
But what they have created is a United Nations of Europe, with all its divisions, futility, bureaucracy and waste.
Even if Brexit is somehow sabotaged or stopped, it will eventually happen as the EU will collapse when the euro does.
They only have to buy or blackmail a few politicians. The rest are easily intimidated and will bend their knees for free.
Farage needs to run for Prime Minister.
Therasa May wins. I am certain that she has deliberately sabotaged the whole deal.
Yes and no. I think they need a total redo, but the problem is that May has been such a poor negotiator that the EU will but scoff.
I happened to be in London when the Brexit initiative passed, and several Brits told me that they had voted for it just to make a statement, because they thought it wouldnt pass.
There should have been a plan in place before the vote. And in any case, a lot of the things they thought were voting against - such as Muslim accommodation and speech crime laws - were actually part of British law and the EU was not involved.
But this whole thing looks a little ridiculous.
It's like a couple decides to split; but one doesn't want it to end, and the one who does want to leave can't decide whether to just walk away, or to try and decide what possessions they're going to bring and what they're going to leave.
And rather than come to an agreement, it looks like they're going to stay together and live in separate rooms as if the break-up doesn't matter.
The sad thing, it's not a dysfunctional couple, but a dysfunctional nation.
The British equivalent of the wall debate — the people want it, the Establishment will do whatever it can to prevent it.
