Just discovered this speech after seeing it linked on Twitter from yesterday. What does this sh1te even mean? The “Labour thinks Brexit is racist” routine is years old now and beyond that it seems the strategy is point and shout “woke” at everything they don’t like.
All cheered on by the member for Ipswich at the back of course. When some of these clowns lose their seats it’s going to be glorious.

prior to triggering article 50 a large portion of the remainers across parties were denying the legitimacy of the result and trying to devise strategies to block it. it can't reasonably be denied that may was seeking a compromise while respecting the vote to leave. there was a remainer majority in the HoC which had the power to get may's deal through and by trying to block it we got something worse. the arrogance of the remainer establishment lost the referendum and then screwed up the chance to soften the terms of leaving.
Could somebody please remind me which party leader was the first to call for us to trigger article 50 the day after he referendum?
Because I’m pretty sure that there are quite a few on here who tried to out him into number 10.

What compromise was she trying to seek?
Brexit is a ridiculous concept. However, if the UK had decided to stay in the single market, stayed in the customs Union but still left the EU then I think that most people would be happy enough.
That situation would have respected the vote but still respected the fact that a lot of people voted to remain.
All that is going to happen now is that in twenty years time the country will rejoin at a deeper level - joining the Euro.
It’s going to happen and the ardent Brexiters would have played the greatest role in enabling it to happen.

Haven't read the thread (just this page) and no idea who chatting about but calling article 50 so soon was a historic mistake.
(thanks for listening!)
From memory I think it was triggered seven months after the referendum. But one particular party leader called for it to be triggered the day after the referendum.
I’m scratching my head to remember who that was. I’m sure somebody will remind me.

That doesn’t stop a government, that is in power, forming cross party groups, and taking inputs from external parties, and having a well defined strategy.
Not entirely sure why people with a differing view leads to incompetence in an organisation that is in power.
Sorry boss, did a really bad job this week.
Oh why is that.
The competitors were awful and didn’t like what I was doing.
Are you friends with Chris Grayling by any chance?

Not at all. I made my choice, right or wrong. I wasn't swayed by any of the arguments used in the referendum. I'd been a Eurosceptic for decades before the referendum. Again, you may not agree with my position ion it but it wasn't influenced by corruption or bigotry. Quite the opposite, as my view on immigration was that freedom of movement penalised non EU members.
We also need to put to bed this nonsense that people like me were persuaded by Russian bots and influence. I'd made my mind up log before Putin was in power.
I'll give you a 'but Labour'. I would imagine you voted Labour in 2017, despite your reservations about the dear leader. Corbyn cost T May her majority at that election. Russia set up thousands of fake Twitter accounts promoting Corbyn and Labour.

You said it, not me, but, I don’t think I have ever called you thick.
Maybe you were influenced by people chatting about what was in the papers?
You must be pretty thick if you've changed your mind over whether you'd like to eat sh1t or chocolate in a matter of months.
For years I really wondered what sh1t tasted like and posted furiously about wanting to eat it. Now that I've tasted it, I realise that chocolate is actually much nicer.
Yeah, duh.

Was your voter influenced by Russian bots? Of course not. Neither was my vote for Brexit.
Do you think any voters were influenced by;
The Daily Telegraph (financially supported by Putin) Guido Fawkes (financially supported by Putin) The Conservative Party (financially supported by Putin) Nigel Farage (self-confessed big admirer of Putin)

Well we know for a fact that Glasgow was influenced by Guido because he would post links to him EVERY SINGLE FAWKING DAY.

They've all gone very quiet about the benefits they are now reaping. You see, that's why remainers are still angry, the leave voters had no idea what they were voting for. Of course, we all know the main reason they voted leave but they'll never admit to it.
I posed that point to a Leaver and got absolutely slaughtered!
