  1. More BS smear campaigns. You lost the argument do you attack the man. Predictable at least from the establishment,

  2. wasneeplus ha ha you are joking. They all said our economy would tank if we didn’t join the Euro. They said if we even held s referendum it could crash our economy. Then they said if we voted to leave it would be the end of the world. So when the same people say that a clean Brexit as opposed to Brexit in name only will be the end of the world forgive me for laughing. Countries want to trade with us. The EU holds trade back with its high tariffs. Our single biggest trade market is dying to get a deal. We are Germany’s single biggest car market for heavens sake. We have s 3/4 trade imbalance with Europe so we hold the cards.

  3. wasneeplus the end of the world!!!! Except how many times have the “Experts” told us that only to be wrong.

  4. Ruediger Preiss you don’t respect democracy. The worst you get called is remoaner. What do you think leavers get called? I’ve been called all the names under the sun for decades because I’ve wanted to leave the EU. Foreigners like yourself who want to remain in the EU can go home. Nobody is stopping anyone from remaining. That’s free movement for you. We voted to join in 1975. We finally got a vote to leave in 2016. It wasn’t close it was a clear majority. If you want another vote you can have one after we leave then wait 41 years like we had to. Now you lost you want to change the rules. The same rules your side insisted we obey when you thought your side would win 52/48 Undemocratic remoaners is accurate and if you find it offensive then perhaps you can imagine how offensive it is to ignore democracy for three and a half years.

  5. Ruediger Preiss sure we do.

  6. Ruediger Preiss we both know you wouldn’t accept your own argument if remain had won. Your side lost and has refused to accept the Democratic result. The remoaner establishment has thwarted the will of the people for three and a half years. If you don’t care about democracy then that’s fine but I do. Voting matters and when it doesn’t anymore then how sad is that.

  7. Ruediger Preiss 17.4 million people is a mandate. But if you don’t believe in democracy you don’t care that their votes have been ignored for three and a half years.

  8. Ruediger Preiss i think we should ignore article 50 and simply leave as no parliament can bind another. However I’m a believer in democracy. Obviously you aren’t as you are happy to ignore the biggest electoral mandate in UK history.

  10. Anti Trump propaganda from C4. Scotland is broke because it’s so anti business. It’s pro expensive unreliable energythough.

  11. We voted for hard Brexit. Nobody voted to leave just a little bit. It was clear in or out and we voted out. Hard Brexit is out!

  12. You don’t even know what an automatic weapon is. He used a semi automatic. The Virginia Tech shooter used a pistol and killed 32. Would you ban all guns?

  13. Once he was in the school it was all over. Politicians have armed guards why not schools.

  15.  @p-james  I agree they messed up. However the shooter walked in through an unlocked door and there was no officer or armed security at the school. Once he was in it was over. Every school should have single entry points with armed school resource officers. Gun free zones don’t work. They attract these people.

  16. The school had no armed guards

  24. H2O I’ve quoted you a source and given you a link if you disagree with the numbers then dispute them and the logic. ....you haven’t even tried. As for the silly tired bus story....perhaps out can tell me what is inaccurate about what was on the buses? https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%C2%A3340+million+for+NHS&t=iphone&iax=images&ia=images&iai=https%3A%2F%2F2.bp.blogspot.com%2F-PSB5Y9CG2dY%2FV9VF4AOh-LI%2FAAAAAAAAvVk%2Fm_gWfHTOUskAX8GYwzU0SN3z5-SZ_j3UwCLcB%2Fs1600%2FVoteLeave12.png The argument that we could spend our EU budget on the NHS if we left is factual. Let’s leave and if the tory party doesn’t spend the EU budget on the NHS then hold them accountable. Tell me what’s wrong with that?

  25. V Heller we are leaving any future spending plans the EU has can change. We have been trying to leave for 40 years it’s no surprise to anyone.

  26. H2O just got the Euro €149 billion where did you read 3? If you want to disagree with the figures above that’s fine but at least quote them correctly. So do you agree the EU should refund our share of the assets we paid for? If not why not. What about our funding of the Eurozone which we never joined? We never have the money away it was lent on the condition we got it back. Many of us want our money back some are willing to forgive much of it and others who want us to remain in the EU want to make leaving very costly by inventing a debt that we somehow owe the EU It’s preposterous.
    1
  27. H2O we are owed this money back. Loans are not gifts. Also the physical structures of the EU are significant. Thousands of buildings full of assets and cars parked outside. Divorce is not without pain and we are owed our share. Pension payment commitments to our own citizens we can honour ourselves either fully or not. Future spending commitments by the EU can be cut back instead of expecting us to keep paying for the club once we have left. Tighten your belts.

  28. untergehermuc debts? Please be specific how we owe the EU money after being the second biggest net contributor for decades? We have paid in more than we got out every single year except the year we joined! We are owed assets on a massive scale. Our huge contributions during the debt crisis should be paid back as should our share of physical assets. Buildings all around the globe we paid for. It’s a divorce and we are owed a big fat payout.

  29. She sounds very upset we don’t want her crappy deal. The best deal by far is no deal and it is what we voted for. To leave. Nobody voted for a deal they voted to leave that includes parliament whose default position was no deal. The question is what deal do we give the EU? If they want access to our market which they have a £70 billion surplus with they can have it if they are nice about it. £39 billion is what they owe us for all the money we have given them for the last 45 years.

  31. Miles of course people want to trade with us. Here’s a list of 67 at the moment https://order-order.com/2016/07/29/brexit-breaking-free-global-markets/ Trump has repeatedly said he is looking for a trade deal with us on TV! If you aren’t aware of that then where do you get your news from. We are a huge economic power sixth biggest in the world and you don’t think we can successfully trade outside the EU? The decision to leave has been made already so the argument is over.

  32. Johnny Kain the head if the WTO doesn’t think its a problem. Do you think we won’t be able to trade?

  36. Boris is the same as May His offer of Brexit in name only is another betrayal from the CONservatives. I’ll be voting for the Brexit party against remainers like Boris.

  37.  @gordonross4952  your stats are way off. If they were anything like true the Independence referendum would have been 100% to leave.

  40. Ingo Zachos I was bring facetious. 1707. Along with your dates you have also forgotten my country which did rather well against England on Saturday (Rugby) Again the EU would not allow Scotland into it without following their procedure. This was made clear during the Scottish referendum.

  41. Ingo Zachos also what happened in 1702?

  42. Ingo Zachos if Scotland had voted to leave. The Rest of the UK would keep the UN seat. Why would little Scotland get it? China isn’t even on the security council. The EU has stated if Scotland voted to leave the UK it would have to apply for EU membership.
    1
  43. Ingo Zachos that’s nonsense. They wouldn’t get the UN Security Council seat. They would have to apply for EU membership and would get a worse deal than the UK.

  44. johnny5wd the EU has an audit each year. It fails that audit each year as well. Has done for 20 years! MEPs can’t enact legislation.

  45. bam-skater if all that is true then why did Scotland vote to remain part of the Union? They don’t believe you.

  46. Ingo Zachos Scotland would have to ask to join the EU if it voted to leave. Prove me wrong if you disagree.

  48. maddoc126 despite the BBC and government backing remain using the tools of the state including a £10 million leaflet campaign leave still won. If you think those leaflets were fair I’ve got a bridge to sell you. The truth is despite the odds we won and you lost. If it was fair we would have won by a greater margin but we won by 1.3 million as it was. Get over it and honour the result IF you believe in democracy.

  49. Propjoe10 17.4 million people voted to leave. Greater than any other electoral mandate. They said they would do as we directed them. It’s been nearly three years and they haven’t. I understand what democracy is and this isn’t it.

  50. THE16THPHANTOM the referendum was one instance when those that govern us asked us directly what we wanted. They said no matter what they would honour the result. Instead politicians like Clarke think they know better and the referendum need not be honoured.
