Well. Apparently the text of a deal has been agreed by both sides. Now for tomorrow’s cabinet explosion.

I agree that is has to show the options - but it has to also give people the chance to now abandon leaving the EU. The crap from some, about Democracy states we must leave because of a referendum result, is bollox. People voted blind (in the main) and based on lies and deceit and unclear facts. Now we know, do we still want to leave?Varky wrote: ↑Fri Dec 07, 2018 3:44 pm Jingward,
My vision of a second referendum would not be to revisit the in/out question, but to clarify what depth of 'out' the populace wanted. Lack of this information is fuelling unsubstantiated comments being made by various factions/groups/parties each purporting to represent the populace, which they obviously don't' They only represent their own ambitions.
You quoted "people voted blind (in the main)", I never said that, you did or do you dispute that ………………… and as for changing our minds, how many times do we need to change "our minds" before it becomes acceptable? As for benefits, that's a pretty worn out argument. As I have said many times before I don't know what the situation will be in 5, 10, 25 or more years time, just as I don't know what the situation will be if we end up staying in the EU in that period, historians will determine whether the decisions made were good or bad? If you (and HiC) can predict the future for the UK then maybe your skills are wasted!
Oh HiC, if only I told you so ………………… but then you usually like to remind us that you did!Happy in Cyprus wrote: ↑Fri Dec 07, 2018 6:39 pm Oh Jim, shame on you, that's an impossible task...and you know it
Be fair to Shane, ask him to name just one benefit which will come from Brexit as it stands.
This on a day when the Health Minister warns of this possible scenatio in the event of a No-Deal Brexit: https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-brit ... SKBN1O60MW
Mind you, I was warning of this scenario 6 months ago, but was dismissed at the time as a scaremongerer
