    Bremoaners - the sooner they are culled the better

    Whining, unpleasant and moronic. Don't believe in democracy. Can't provide a single argument - just insults.

    And that is just the CUK mods(apart from cojak) who has the good sense to keep quiet. The rest are even worse.

    Hopefully they will soon be rounded up and sent for extermination.

      David Cameron handed you a loaded gun to carry out the job yourself, but you shot yourself in the foot.

        We had a referendum in 1975. You (brexiters) did not accept the result and had 20+ years of moaning. You said you would not accept the 2nd referendum if it was a close call. I think the best of three should be the way forward.

          But with 40 years inside the EEA first to maximise bitching and whining.

            We had a referendum to stay in the EEC which at the time consisted of 9 countries and was geared around freedom of trade.

            Not quite the same.

              I did not agree with the result in 1975 - though accepted. I think there should have been a vote whether to accept Maastrict or not.

              I would have accepted the 2nd referendum not matter how close.

                Since June last year, approx 750,000 people in the UK have died and roughly 900,000 people have turned 18.

                We had a referendum back then about leaving the EU, which was geared around taking back control of our borders (which we had control of anyway), taking back control of our laws (which we had control over anyway) and giving money to the NHS. We were going to break all ties with the EU and have a hard Brexit that was red, white and blue, etc. It would be led by David Cameron, who wasn’t going to step down, and A50 would be triggered immediately.

                Cameron stepped down
                They all backtracked on the money for the NHS
                May stepped up and said there would be no snap election
                May called a snap election
                May triggered article 50 9 months late. Promised that the hard Brexit would be complete by March 2019
                May said there was no magic money tree
                May found £1.5bn to give to the DUPe.
                Boris brought back the claim of the NHS money
                May has backtracked on the hard Brexit and the date of it.

                The UK is going to drift listlessly along as a second rate member of the EU for at least 3 more years, by which time a further 1.6million UK voters will have died and 2.2 million reached 18.

                So that’s a change of about 5 million voters (not saying what way they would vote) from the point that the vote was made until the current end point of the process.

                  Much though I am loath to agree, good points. Where did you copy it from?

                  On this basis, should not the referendum be re-run every few years?

                    There should be a Brexit app. All eligible voters have a Remain / Leave status which they update whenever they change their mind. Newly eligible voters record their status for the first time, and voters who lose eligibility have their status discounted.

                    Any time the balance changes, Article 50 is invoked or withdrawn accordingly.
