Qu'en pense Caffarelli?

People are still operating under the idea that this is sensible too. Listening rn to an uber-gammon loudly explain why brexit is good actually and also how everyone else voted with their hearts but he thought about it very carefully. He's on a Spanish island saying this to a dutchman while sat in a Spanish restaurant and I want to give the old fart a stone cold stunner.

Do it, and I'll hop on a train down to Malaga and do the same to the pensioners living in their anglophone ghettos.

I don't think we even had a written constitution until a few years ago. It would definitely cause a constitutional crisis and would be a dumb thing for her to do but I don't believe there's anything stopping her.

There's a film/play about Charles III where he basically walks into parliament, says they're a bunch of dicks, and dissolves it.

Spain didn’t say they would veto an independent scotland’s attempts to join the Eu.

Spain did say an independent Scotland would have to apply to join rather than be allowed continual membership, but that’s also what the EU said.

Scotland only got their referendum because Cameron knew the wind was blowing towards "No".

We only got an EU referendum because he thought he could get away with it a second time.

I live in Barcelona and while I'm fairly neutral when it comes to whether Catalonia should be independent or not, I will say that after two years the ultra-pro-independence-everyone-else-is-a-fascist lot really get on my nerves. And their politicians are as retarded as ours.

The "best deal" is what we have now, compared to the other two, which could theoretically be improved from within the EU as a member state.

Corbyn's beaten off so much opposition from within and without but if he doesn't actually stand up now and flat out say we should reverse Article 50 / call another referendum what was the point of him being opposition leader?

It may shock you to learn that quite a lot of people who vote for labour also voted leave

It doesn't in the slightest, but​ I wonder how many voters they'd gain for speaking out. Part of the problem with modern politics is the parties play only to what they think will get them votes (thanks Dave), rather than having​ ideas they believe in.

I think noted political commentator Reginald D Hunter said that while he didn't like Thatcher at all, he respected that her policies were a result of her headstrong vision of being a oval office rather than to go after your vote.
