EU referendum set for June 23rd

Take your pick:





Short version - everyone is still arguing, the world has failed to end, there have been no plagues of boils or frogs. And World War 3 hasn't started, either.

Soros (yes, him again) speaks....

He seems to have forgotten his role in fomenting the chaos. Still, one bonus from Brexit is that he's rumoured to have lost billions from it, which is affecting his donations to Hillary, and all those fake 'charities' and activists that act as a front for him.

Your above post, Bonny, is music to my ears.   

I should have posted the link, I'll try and find it again, Lily.

Meanwhile....

On the EU referendum result:
Happy: 48%
Unhappy: 43%
Indifferent: 7%
(via ComRes)

I am so happy that that evil bar steward is unhappy.

He's probably upset because the world has failed to end, Lily. He can't make money out of nothing very much actually happening....

BTW, Mutton has bogged again. It's her usual guff, but the comments have turned into a fight about Brexit, with everyone calling each other stupid, fascists, Little Englanders, sheep, etc.

Life is slowly returning at the moment.

The 'huge' petition would appear to be a complete fraud. Just a sample of what is all over the internet:

Check Vatican City now, 3322 signatures from a population of about 800. @Holbornlolz @Ladyofhadess @RudawEnglish

It's the same as the phoney 'anti-Trump' petition - which was also heavily promoted by the BBC....

If nothing else, I hope this episode drives it home to people that online, so-called 'opinion polls' are as easily manipulated as the Daily Mail green/red arrows.

Oh God, the LibDem UK leader, Farron, has just endorsed the fake petition.

It's easy to get a UK postcode via google. How about this one?

That's Downing Street. I wonder how many times that's been used on the 'petition'?

What was that about insular metropolitan elites?

"I don't, in any circumstances, want to see a border between England and Scotland," says Nicola Sturgeon.

She should have thought of that before she started acting like President of Scotland. If England and Wales leave the EU and Scotland tries to get in, she'll need a Berlin-type Wall to stop people fleeing south.

I am especially angry with her total dishonesty because she is playing to the gallery and NOT making it clear that:

1. The austerity which would be inflicted on Scotland would make Greece look rich and prosperous.

2. There is no legal basis for ANY of this, any more than there would be for Orkney and Shetland declaring UDI.

I truly believe this is one of the most devastating things to happen during my lifetime. I felt a fear I've never felt this morning.

Try the Cuban missile crisis, dear, and a few other more serious matters - like 9/11. Oh, and dry your tears and try to find a backbone.

I have no idea where today's ridiculous story about Holyrood having the power to block Brexit has come from....

Adam Tomkins MSP ‏@ProfTomkins 56m56 minutes ago
Lots of nonsense on here about Holyrood having power to block or veto Brexit. It has no such power.


Adam Tomkins MSP ‏@ProfTomkins 55m55 minutes ago
Holyrood has the power to show or to withhold its consent. But withholding consent is not the same as blocking.

I do wish people would listen to Gordon Wilson and Jim Sillars, both of whom have a far better grasp of the real situation. They aren't alone in their views, either, as roughly a third of SNP supporters ignored orders from the top and voted LEAVE.

Oh, now I see.

Nicola Sturgeon has warned that Scottish politicians could veto the UK’s exit from the EU.

Experts have warned that the Scottish Parliament’s consent would be required before the UK could leave.

Asked if Holyrood could veto a Brexit she told the BBC: “Of course. If the Scottish Parliament is judging this on the basis of what is best for Scotland we are not going to vote for something that is not in Scotland’s interests. Of course that is going to be on the table”.

That is an outright lie. Holyrood has the power to sulk, but that's all. And this is a perfect example of how I came to so dislike Ms Sturgeon once the blinkers were off.

She's another Obama, all empty rhetoric to agitate, but that's it....she hasn't bothered to actually run Scotland efficiently since she was made leader.

It's hot air with NO legal basis, but the sheep will lap it up.

The House of Commons petitions committee has said it is investigating allegations of fraud in connection with a petition calling for a second EU referendum.
Any signatures found to be fraudulent would be removed, it said.
More than 3.1 million people have signed the petition, although PM David Cameron has previously said there will be no second referendum.
It comes after the UK voted 52-48 to leave the EU in Thursday's referendum.
Helen Jones, who chairs the cross-party petitions committee, said in a statement posted on Twitter that it was taking the allegations of fraud "very seriously".
"People adding fraudulent signatures to this petition should know that they undermine the cause they pretend to support," she said.
The committee will consider the petition at its meeting next week and decide whether to schedule a debate on it, Ms Jones said.
"That doesn't mean that the committee will be deciding whether or not it agrees with the petition - just whether or not it should be debated.
"Any debate would allow a range of views to be expressed."
The petition has more signatures than any other on the parliamentary website.
But a number of people on Twitter have pointed out that many people signing it appear to be doing so from outside the UK.....etc.

Squirming Sturgeon says Scots will KEEP Pound, have no border with England AND stay in EU

DELUDED Nicola Sturgeon has claimed Scotland can remain part of the European Union while keeping the Pound and retaining a border-free crossing with England.....etc.

Completely. F*cking. Insane.

Pity Ruth Davidson isn't FM - she might not like the result, but at least she wouldn't be trying to cause even more chaos and running the country into the ground.
