pongo Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 (edited) London decides what happens in Liverpool. Liverpool never decides what happens in London. London decides what happens in the IOM. The IOM has no influence over what happens in London. Your arguments about the EU are utterly partial and blinkered. Thanks to people like @The Voice of Reason, the UK is breaking up.

It’s not about being ruled from Westminster it’s whether they want to remain in the UK which in the recent, once in a generation referendum, they said they did Quote

I presume that had the EU referendum gone the other way by the same margin then you would have dropped the matter entirely? Quote

TheTeapot Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 The sovereignty, as explained by the voice of reason is completely fucking dumb. It is his contention that everyone knew what they were voting for. It is clear they did not. 1 Quote

It is clear they did not. How so? If I had been able to vote I would know exactly what I was voting for. In or out. This is the old “Brexiteers are stupid” argument isn’t it?

I was asked about my own position. I can’t speak for anyone else. Even if the Remain camp had won by just one vote, they would have won. Whichever way the referendum went you would will still get the disappointed people wanting a re run. Any such calls from either side should just be ignored. The result is the result. It’s not even worth discussing. Quote

ManxTaxPayer Posted September 21, 2021 Author Posted September 21, 2021 That's just one of many contributions. Quote
