Steve Shaw BS: To Br/Exit Or Not To Br/Exit (1036* d) RE: BS: To Br/Exit Or Not To Br/Exit 04 Sep 16


What rubbish. You want the whole population to make an irrevocable decision on an extremely complex matter that will affect the country for many decades (including - especially including - people who are too young to vote). That was a bad choice to begin with, all the worse because that choice was made by Cameron for all the wrong reasons. The very least that should have happened was a huge education programme. Well pigs might fly. With politicians on two opposing sides that was simply never going to happen. The country was peddled lies from both sides and the thresholds for turnout and voting outcome were set way too low. Just over one third of those eligible to vote are dragging us out of the EU. Unconscionable. Indefensible. And lopsided, in that one choice put before the public was irrevocable whereas the other was reversible. That in itself is a damn good reason why those thresholds were set all wrong.

Yes it went your way, smug Stanron, and not mine. That is no reason to question my democratic credentials. In fact, as you are ignoring all the points I've made, every one of which is in criticism of the democratic deficit surrounding the referendum, I'd say that your credentials are far more suspect. And I haven't forgotten the blatant racism peddled by your side. Do I take it that you implicitly approve of it?
