  1. I would love to know the percentage of remain voters who think the EU is democratic and when the vote was taken as to what deal they are offering us on leaving and why the UK hasn't vetoed this offer.

  2. There's more truth in theory than theory in truth.

  3. Guilty admission I didn't watch the video I've heard it all before.

  7. Thanks for taking the time to lay out your view of EU procedures and power structures, I wonder what % of EU subjects know anything about how the EU operates. It makes it difficult to find out where to stick your pitchfork. I guess that's part of the plan.

  8. We need to speed up the leaving process before the EU empire disappears in a cloud of blame.

  9. They are proper toffs man, the sort I agree with, not.

  10. Yes by all means a second referendum after a minimum of ten years. If that's not soon enough for all you remainers put yourselves up at a general election with a manifesto pledge to join the EU. I'm sure you'd be welcomed with open arms provided the country is making enough (hide your eyes people dirty word coming) profit.

  11. Probably when they realised how much they could claim for expenses and their pension.

  12. He's a labour Lord the only sort worth the money and high rank. Oh I forgot we're all equal but some are more equal than others.

  13. It seems to me the more complex systems are the less they contribute to humanities progress.

  14. Depends on your definition of wasted.

  15. We don't know for certain why people voted as they did, would you say feeling xenophobic is a natural response of people finding themselves in a particular situation or a permanent characteristic in that vast majority you talk of. Either way I think it points to a failure of our socio-political construct and the vote was a call for change.

  16. Or we could be just stupid humanity doomed to keep repeating the same mistakes in a different guise.

  17. Hope that isn't analogous to a space between the ears. The interesting question ignored by most is the transition the EU empire has been undergoing for the last few decades. Up to now the empire has been mainly a Franco German enterprise but the transfer of power to Brussels is reaching a critical phase. If they succeed with their desire for an EU army and a treasury department with overall control of the 27 economies the transition will speed up I think. Do we think the empire will be good for us and how long will it last how big will it get.

  18. Where would we be without the urban spacemans younger brother and chukka upper.

  19. Is that name Sich or sic?

  20. Is that why we outsourced the running of this country to the EU, they're so successful at paying themselves so well just like Carrilion and the Greeks are really grateful for their expertise in building their country up.

  21. You mean the French & German economies of the Franco German empire.

  22. What do you think we should do with all the compensation VW are going to pay us for conning us on diesel emissions? oh well at least we have low powered vacuum cleaners to help us now.

  23. I've heard prostitutes take re-entry when the price is right.

  24. There is no Franco German empire LOL

  25. I think a referendum does involve genuine discussion, the fact that some people exaggerate some points is revealing of itself. If people are too dumb or lazy to understand the fundamental issues that is unfortunate, in the end they only have themselves to blame. That is the beauty of a properly functioning democracy, you get what you vote for. The more honest, open and less accepting of biased views society is the better for the majority.

  26. Agreed the sooner the better but I think it will be 5 to 10yrs, as long as we exit march 2019 they can sort out there own mess in their own time. More important is what replaces it I think United Nations of Europe sounds good.
