Lefties are the most tolerant people on earth.... 16:03 - Apr 8 with 5707 views | Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | until you don't agree with their opinion, which automatically makes you an ill informed uneducated racist. Some of the most hypocritical offensive people are left of centre. I've been watching question time on YouTube this last month as Brexit was fast approaching (or so I thought) and listening to this tosh is infuriating. I'd have a lot more respect for them if they just came out and said admitted they wanted to reverse democracy because I don't agree with 52% of the population. Margaret Beckett and that ilk. Hate is a strong word but I'm not far from being in that category. The notion that now people understand it more we should ask them again. How offensive is that to people that voted in this one in a lifetime referendum. The hilarious part of this is all the Labour strongholds are the people that voted us out anyway. What a joke. We should be on WTO by now. Congratulations Westminster because this going to have long time consequences including a rise in the far right. | | | | |

Lefties are the most tolerant people on earth.... on 16:14 - Apr 8 with 2990 views | hampstead_blue | You know what's going to happen? You're going to get blocked/ignored and/or hammered by the lefties. They take a bit of thawing from their Cold War stances but when they get going they get pretty tasty. Have to say that the HoP overall has been a cluster thuck over Brexit. We should be out but the middle class politico's seem think they know better and are ignoring the majority. We don't need s 2nd vote, customs union (takers all day), or anything which ties us in the EU. The negative spin is pretty horrid and insulting. Both sides have had their fair share of vacuous spin but the remainers just keep harping on about the same old, same old..... They should shut up and let us get on with leaving. | |

Pretty sure I'm not thought of as a leftie but I'm happy to say you're both speaking total bobbins. Perhaps it's nothing to do with being a left, centre or right but having the ability to see what a total disaster Brexit would be for the country and the fact that 52/48 is hardly the crushing and decisive victory you seem to be claiming. It's even less so when you factor in that it was based on some factual inaccuracies which some people believed. How about we have a poll and if 52% of the respondents feel your posting isn't contributing to the board we get rid of you with no recourse or ability to ask the board again?

These politicians are in an incredibly difficult position. They are there to represent their constituents and act in their best interests. They believe that Brexit, in particular No Deal, will be disastrous for the economy and therefore for their most vulnerable constituents. In that scenario I would say it takes far more courage to continue to stand up for what you believe than just blindly hide behind the referendum result as a way of abdicating your responsibility. It is exposing them to untold abuse and will likely cost them their seats and careers, I think they’re brave, albeit they all could have learned to compromise and put any suggestion of party politics to one side.

Lefties are the most tolerant people on earth.... on 17:20 - Apr 8 with 2804 views | Swansea_Blue | Pretty impressive. For a fairly short piece I counted 9 instances of incorrect information, misleading information, or cognitive dissonance: 1. People aren't being called ill informed, uneducated racists for differences of opinion. If they're being called ill informed or racists it's more likely because they're ill informed or they've done a racism/xenopphobism. 2. In terms of the leading figures in Brexit, those pushing for it are the most hypocritical of the lot imo (Brexiteers pushing for a hard exit, waving their union jacks, whilst lining their own nest investing against the country's performance, etc). 3. Voting can never reverse democracy. It is democracy in action. Cease to give people a say and you have the complete breakdown in democracy (the thought of a second referendum makes me feel sick, but you can't deny the people a right to campaign for it). 4. It wasn't 52% of the population, it was 52% of the turnout. 5. Accusing "lefties" of being intolerant whilst declaring near-hatred of a group purely for their political position. 6. What is even the slightest bit wrong with finding out information before making a decision or reserving the right to make a new decision in the light of new or more information? Our society runs on such basic foundations - in the sciences, medicine, law, politics, etc. 7. In terms of the strongest Leve & Remain areas, you've got this completely about face. - Top 10 Leave areas: Boston (Tory), South Holland (Tory), Castle Point (Tory), Thurrock (Tory), Great Yarmouth (Tory), Fenland (Tory), Mansfield (Tory), Bolsover (Labour), East Lindsey (Tory), North East Lincolnshire (split Labour/Tory) - Top 10 Remain areas: Lambeth (Labour), Hackney (Labour), Haringey (Labour x2), City of London (Tory), Islington (Labour), Wandsworth (Labour x2, Tory x1), Camden (Labour x2), Edinburgh (SNP x3, Labour x1, SLD x1), East Renfrewshire (Tory), Cambridge (Labour) 8. Exiting on WTO wasn't (a) the plan, or (b) what people were asked to vote on (lots of threads on this). 9. This isn't causing the rise of the far right, it's a consequence of the rise of the right & far right. You've captured the mood and spirit of Brexit a treat though - a great effort considering you're mostly out of the country. | |

You're one of the main offenders as you've shown here. Explicitly stating your points as fact. Point 4 is correct though I didn't word that correctly. Yes, I do have near hatred for politicians trying overturn a referendum result because they don't agree with it. 6. What is even the slightest bit wrong with finding out information before making a decision or reserving the right to make a new decision in the light of new or more information? Our society runs on such basic foundations - in the sciences, medicine, law, politics, etc. - This is the main problem, this view is undemocratic and dangerous. Brexit has had two general election manifestos and a referendum (with the highest turnout in British political history). We must respect it and leave. I don't like no deal but this should have happened on March 29th. To give a second referendum any credibility this needs to be in a parties manifesto for a new general election but only after we have left. If you don't see the problem with overturning the 2016 vote then I can't help you. If we don't leave this squabbling in Westminster will cause in fact the rise of the far right. Just because I don't live in the country I can't have an opinion on this? I am as much a British citizen as you are. | | | |
