Gina Miller was not trying to clarify the British constitution she cares not one jot about it. The woman thinks she is entitled to question the result of the most democratic vote we have ever had in this country, backed by others of course.

On the contrary, that’s the exact point at which people will realise the simple question they voted on in the referendum won’t necessarily translate into what they actually wanted in the real world, and things will kick off all over again with renewed vigour – because there is literally no way to keep everyone happy even within the leave camp, let alone doing enough to placate the 48% as well.

and we are entitled to criticise her. All she has achieved is to create more anger and resentment and also give false hopes to some remainers that the result can somehow be overturned by a technicality. A pointless waste of time and money

I can't see triggering article 50 having a calming effect, only thing will calm it down is when we know what is going to happen, much of the population is plain and simple scared because they have no idea what the landscape will look like after brexit. I have to admit I'm more nervous now than when I voted because listening to remainers put the country down tell me we can't do well without hard working immigrant labour, That we are lazy stupid and unable to make our country work. It's started to affect my mood as i am now wondering is my family only Brits who are working hard and willing to do those jobs immigrants are apparently uniquely willing to do.

The trouble is each side was only interested in painting a good picture of their argument. Neither side gave only facts and left their bias out of it. Either of two things will happen. One, things will go from bad to worse after Brexit finally happens and this will mean that the Remain camp were right all along. Two, the UK's economy will start becoming richer and richer and the Remain camp will have turned out to be wrong. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see who was right.
There will be many other factors that influence the future of our economy - cos we live in a global world now not a little Eurooean one. |

It's not helped by people being promised deals etc, I voted out to me that meant out no ties to eu at all. But back peddling is now looking like deals may be done so we have one foot in and the other out. That won't make anyone happy IMO in or out.
This is not something we've found out after the referendum, it was all stated beforehand. It just doesn't really condense down into a nice sound bite to be thrown around as ammunition against the other side of the debate. |

When 40-50% of our business is done with the EU, the idea of having ‘no ties’ was never realistic, though. Over time we might be able to move more to the US/China or wherever else, but as it stands we are hugely reliant on the EU to maintain economic stability in the short term. Hence all these idea of “them needing us more than we need them” is nonsense, and prospects of being able to negotiate a deal where we don’t have to accept things like freedom of movement, or significant contributions and acceptance of existing trade rules are pretty non-existent. The question is where we compromise, and wherever that is… someone won’t be happy.
This is not something we've found out after the referendum, it was all stated beforehand. It just doesn't really condense down into a nice sound bite to be thrown around as ammunition against the other side of the debate. The vast majority of our businesses cater for the home market only. Only 28% of our goods and services are exported and only 44% of that goes to the EU. |

I find them a very confused bunch, banging on about giving UK parliament and law more power and now they've suddenly done a massive u turn on that and don't want it after all. They seem to just like to get angry a lot from what I've seen.

If you are backed by millionaire hedge fund owners the law is very much available to you. Unlike voting where their vote counts the same as everyone else.

She's ignoring the opinion of half the country as it doesn't suit her.
Quote:
I am sure were the roles reversed she would be one of those shouting loudest that her way won, and would be denying others the opportunity she has been given.
Pure speculation. And how would she deny them? She would have no more power to stop them than you or I have now to stop her.

So what? I have an opinion and I'm voicing (or rather) typing it. If you have nothing constructive to add apart from petty comments, don't bother replying.

I thought this was a discussion board, not a place for MinnieMinz to voice their opinion unchallenged. Point out where I was rude and I will apologize.
