It is clear that a legal although rigged 2nd referendum (by changing the composition of the electorate in a heavily pro-EU direction) is the direction of travel among the treacherous political class so sometimes you need to pick your battles.

I find it quite ironic that he is getting offended that Juncker isn't giving the Benn Act respect.
 
Nigel Farage is basically the UK's Julius Malema. He's an opportunist that thrives on chaos.

So when Farage refers to thuggocracy is he talking about Dominic Cummings?

How are they going to change the composition of the electorate?

Farage is part of the elite and the political class.

Come on Labour MPs in the Midlands and the North. Do you really want to listen to clowns like Keir Starmer who represents a metropolitan leftie ultra-Remainer seat? Do you really think he has any clue about life outside London?

You do realise that there are northern Labour seats with strong remain support?

PS

Starmer was the Director of Public Prosecutions and head of the Criminal Prosecution Service, he likely has quite a big clue about life outside London. Annoyingly for you, he was knighted by a Conservative government...

Allowing 16-year-olds to vote as well as non-UK EU citizens. It's all obvious.

I always thought it odd that UK citizens living in the EU were not allowed to vote in the referendum, given that they are the ones most affected by the result.

How would they possibly allow EU citizens to vote in a second referendum? That just sounds like you spreading unfounded FUD to me

Lol.

Loving the gymnastics as Theresa May's deal with more concessions in the favour of the EU is now being championed.


A reminder of how this guy, Boris Johnson was dead against this arrangement. How would that Boris, feel about this new deal that Boris has agreed?

Reality settling in perhaps and ideology falling by the way side?

Worth also looking at what BJ's position was re. the border in the Irish Sea.

You need them to supply your opinion for you?

As is BoJo, Mogg and everyone else he worships. Chris wouldn't be caught dead living in the fabled 'Brexit heartland'.

If only Labour would kick Corbyn to the curb and put Starmer in charge... Or Jess Phillips for that matter. Or Tom Watson...

By legislating it. It's really not that hard. They are already allowed to vote in local council elections. It was one of Leave's early victories as well as the specific wording on the ballot sheet.
