LOL. Ironic that BMG research was victim of a hoax report claiming that Leave would win.

As we well know, turns out the hoax was correct and their "real" poll data was wrong

She's told MP's that yes, they can vote, but it WILL NOT have any effect on WHETHER we leave or no. Whatever they do, they won't stop it.
If they vote against any deal, we still go, but it would have to be on WTO.

Good choice, eh? LOL

It should mean that the negotiation stance of the UK is more towards the moderate end of the Brexit spectrum. It probably takes the WTO completely off the table (thankfully)

And on the BBC!

So, all those experts who predicted this have been proved right after all, yet the Brexiteers still bury their heads in the sand!

Surely the UK is where it is and no amount of chest beating and head shaking on this forum will change that.

That's one way of looking at it. Alternatively though, you might say it's equally as important to understand just how we got where we are, so that we can avoid making similar whopping great mistakes in future.

I doubt the opportunity to vote on anything so significant will occurr again in our lifetimes. Perhaps voting in a Corbyn government to spite the Tories might run a close second though.

Interesting that you'd say that, considering I've never let it be known here who I've voted for in ANY elections.

Brexidiot logic at its finest, again.

Nuh-uh.....you display your lefty credentials with pride.

Sadly, many do, they just don't get the contempt that others feel for them.

Never mind, better luck next time round.

Your problem is that your perception of what left wing actually means is uniquely yours, and bears no resemblance to reality. If you really were as highly educated as you seem to think you are, you would know this. Here's a clue - not everybody who diverges from your bizarre world view is a 'lefty'.
HTH.

Yeah, yeah, nice try.

The usual: " I can't refute this guy's posts so lets attack him personally".

What a sad weevil you certainly are.

PS: For "lefty", you can substitute "liberal", "pinko", "snowflake", and even young woman....

And yes...you are all of those....

Thanks for the heads-up
