There wasn't a second vote in 1975 when the UK voted to join the Common Market. There were no referendums on the Maastricht and Lisbon Treaties which altered the structure of the Common Market and created the EU with it's Customs Union, Single Market and Freedoms of movement.

So why should there be a 'second referendum' just so project fear can have another crack at frightening people into changing their minds? BTW I don't believe leavers have changed their minds and quite rightly want the Government to honour the result of the 2016 referendum before there is even any talk of a second referendum.


Well of course you can believe what you want. The 1975 plebiscite was the first referendum, 2016 was the second so s precedent has already been set. What's the problem with having a third? If you're so convinced your lot will win again you should welcome it.

Ive never voted on the basis of public opinion, like you I have one vote, on this occasion the majority voted leave. Therefore we must leave or there’s no point voting again. Talking of a People’s Vote when the EU is part of the Globalist objective of no borders, no sovereign states free movement shows you really aren’t as clever as you think you are. People’s vote is just another buzz phrase designed to appeal to the hard of thinking.

Mr Raab, who is currently housing minister, was a prominent Leave campaigner during the 2016 referendum.

Mr Davis quit late on Sunday night, saying Theresa May had "given away too much too easily".

The 44-year old Mr Raab, a lawyer before becoming an MP in 2010, will now take over day-to-day negotiations with the EU's Michel Barnier.


From what I understand the position of BREXIT minister is purely cosmetic and carries no real power. I think there is a fella called Oliver Robbins who is a civil servant and has all but taken over the roll of negotiating with the EU.

He is also a rabid remain campaigner which explains why in effect the UK is not leaving the EU.


I listened to David Davis on Radio 4 this morning, he confirmed that the role was powerless and the PM made all the decisions on the matter

The gap between the 1% and the rest is greater than ever before, it’s all part of the globalist agenda. Brexit was our Peasents Revolution, it was a chance to actually make things better for working class people. Now we’ve been conned out of it.

Undoubtably we’re going to get an extension from the EU. Use that time for another referendum where the vote is either No Deal or Remain. If the vote is No Deal, withdraw immediately and if Remain revoke Article 50.

AfricanBluebird wrote:The thing about Brexit, whether you voted for it or not, is that there was so little due diligence, whatif scenarios and investigations done before the referendum as to what Brexit would look like that we should never really have had the vote when we did. It was very premature. There should have been at least 3 years investigations as to the ramifications and what likely deals we could strike on the different negotiation items before the vote. Then I feel people would have been better informed. As it happens people voted with very little information (from both sides) which of course opened the door to emotional media manipulation.

Also, even if Brexit is, in the long term, right for the country, we have completely incompetent people trying to strike deals which they are not equipped or skilled to do. Eventually the EU will tell us to just f**k off and make decisions for us.

The conservatives and Labour are completely incompetent.

Let's be frank, it's a clusterfuck.


These ramifications are all a load of nonsense anyway because nobody can predict these sorts of things, seeing it now with "this is how much worse off we will be in certain scenarios" but it has too many factors attached to it to be believable.

for me the core principle should be, should we be a country who stands on our own but still deals with europe, or should we be involved in a united europe where collective decisions are made for everyone. and then we can just go from there


100% agree. The waffle African Bluebird has come out with is the precise reason why BREXIT is failing. No-one can predict the future and that is why I have paid no attention whatsoever to project fear's WWIII and economic meltdown nonsense.

We are a great country and would survive perfectly well outside the EU. We should be bold enough to say to the EU stick it up your arse if they don't want to give us a free trade agreement.

Davis has been bold lets hope other BREXIT supporters have the same courage.
