It is past time for some medieval justice in Britain. Members of Parliament who are determined to block the popular vote need to be taken to the Tower of London and left to contemplate their sins over a thin gruel of their treachery.

There won’t be a second referendum.

But there will (eventually) be a General Election, which will:

a) confirm the results of the referendum and
b) consolidate the Brexit majority into a parliamentary majority.

This is why the Remain faction don’t want an Election, and why the Brexit faction do.

If Boris ends up having to resign in order to avoid making a bad deal, then his support will only rise.

You would think that our RINOs would at least show some support for their RINOs, but no, they are so fackless that they can’t even support their own kind.

The UK is a representative democracy. The members of parliament can technically vote however they like, at risk of being thrown out at the next general election

Europe's Swamp is at least as big...at least as powerful...and at least as amoral as ours. And its current leader is a former Stasi informant!

But then one would expect their Swamp to have a connection to the Stasi just as ours has an unmistakable connection to Saul Alinsky and Bill Ayers.

What is the definition of globalism?

“The attitude or policy of placing the interests of the entire world above those of individual nations”

The EU most definitely looks out for the interests of its nation state membership. Hence the high tariffs, rules and barriers to globalist companies.

Remember that they try to put restrictions on Facebook, Google etc that is anti globalist.

Finally, it gives even a tiny nation like Estonia a chance to define its terms, gives it an equal vote and its language as equal right.

All they’re really asking for is another referendum. Or two. Or three...Until the people vote “Remain.” And then the issue can finally be settled.

Sounds like Democrats demanding recounts.

A high probability prediction. You can already see that political violence is on the proverbial slippery slope and nothing is being done to check it.

So, apparently Brexit is not over till it’s actually over

At this point, I can’t tell what really happened

In the overall scheme of things, globalist Europe no longer matters

East of Suez and the Pacific rim are the future. those people are not in favor of a global government

Our RINO’s are a treacherous lot but the reality is that the Republican Party as a whole is feckless and lacking in any convictions.

The GOP won’t support Trump, won’t support conservatives, and won’t fight against Democrats. Its a useless party.

Whenever I see Trump at one of his rallies I keep hoping that he will launch his own party that actually represents conservatives. The numbers seem to be there to do it.

I have no faith left in the GOP and accept the fact that they are never going to change.

He thinks he can dumb you down. When the presses run the same stories here as there, you have hyper-nationalism. Could be worse.

Well, the EU is anti globalist, trying to keep everything in it’s own club.

East of the Suez you have three “Asian eu”s
1. India, or rather the union of India which has more nations, languages and races than the eu
2. Asean
3. China which is han Chinese dominated like the UK is English dominated
