The only response will be 'the people already voted' regardless of the numbers. I don't think so. It's not a referendum, it's a petition. The two and entirely different and people have the right to express dissatisfaction with the current situation and be listened to with courtesy. Not just disregarded out of hand because 17.4 million people voted nearly 3 years ago based on lies, misinformation and a corrupt campaign. We vote regularly in this country (more regularly than we should do, lately!) to change government if circumstances or opinions change. We're being denied that right and shouted down.

Brexit was a loaded gun for Parliament but there are ways and means of being grown up's about any political crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowychap Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I'm a little surprised there haven't been any resignations or even rumours of resignations in the light of May's disgraceful rant last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted March 21, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 21, 2019 You know what's mad? I'm leaving the UK tomorrow and won't be back until 31st March. That's only a 9 day trip, yet I have no idea whether I'm coming back to the EU or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually is nice to live in my world. When I close my eyes listening to music, I see abstract colours in a sort of kaleidoscope / lava lamp mash up. It's like a real endorphin pop. I can get high at a gig without substance abuse, and I've just booked gig tickets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only response will be 'the people already voted' regardless of the numbers. It's worse than that. Let's say it eventually hits 5m signatures. The response will be "11m who originally wanted that must have changed their mind then". It provides evidence for the exact opposite thing that they want, unless it hits the figure Chris refers to.

Popular Post Chindie Posted March 21, 2019 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2019 I'm not surprised there's been no meaningful reaction to her hissy fit last night.
