If you read the article you will see it amounts to no more than "Merkel threw her support behind the idea". This isn't even a plan let alone a project. Even if it progressed despite all the practical difficulties we would not be forced to join. So just another scare story then.

Got any other examples Hipster from the pile you mentioned?

Yes so the 2 major countries France and Germany and morons like junker and verhofstadt support the idea. I thought it was a fantasy? Thats what the remain campaign said anyway. 

We were told the there would be an immediate budget on a VOTE to leave, that the NHS would collapse, that there was a risk to peace on the continent. All the financial predictions were made on a vote to leave an none of them came true. 

Nothing to do with having left or not.

Remain campaign was also fined by the electoral commission and broke electoral law. 

Sad state of affairs. 

The PM said that the a vote to leave was a vote to leave the EU and its associated bodies. Quite simple really.

[size=31]Theresa May lied and lied again to become PM[/size]

So we should just listen to her with that track record ? By the way, most economists stated the meltdown would start when we leave, not if we vote leave. It’s easy to pick the comments of a few individuals and ignore the impartial experts.

The PM was elected after the vote, so that doesn’t make your version of Brexit any more relevant I’m afraid. All it means is she wasted 2 years chasing a Brexit that would pander to the right of her party and boost her popularity with leavers (or so she mistakenly thought).

It’s not up to you or her to have the final say on what Brexit means. We live in a parliamentary democracy and the decision should be taken by parliament to deliver what’s best for the country - taking all the facts into account. 

If parliament is unable to do that, what form of Brexit we take should be a decision that comes to the people.

Two common quotes from Theresa May that stand up to meaning nothing....

Brexit means Brexit. 
The will of the people.

The first one is a joke because still, no one knows what the hell will happen, over than normal people being worse off, and many out of a job. The second one is just a lie. The will of the people two years ago before all the realities of leaving, and all the outright lies from Farage and Johnson were unraveled. She is clueless and anyone who thinks she thinks what she is doing is in the BEST INTEREST OF THE UK is deluded.

I meant the PM of the day. David Cameron.

If a party decides not to carry through with a manifesto promise in a general election (in other words lie) does that mean we should re-run the election and that the initial vote for that party was not the "will of the people"

Actually it does in my opinion, but like I said a whole host of different things are up for change. I worked under both Conservative and Labour Governments in the UK, and neither of them made a single difference to me. I don’t think I was ever better off or worse off under either. I always voted Conservative. For me, neither of the main parties are fit to Govern. At the moment the Conservative leader is a proven liar and the Labour leader doesn’t want the job so floats around in the background. It’s interesting that he still goes against the largest demographic of his voters by still wanting Brexit, but that fits nicely if you are a Socialist.

I think the only thing we all agree about is that both May and Corbyn are completely useless!

Without question the state of British politics is at an all time low. The talent on both front benches as well is seriously poor.

Yes he's quite clear on brexit.

He wants to negotiate a NEW customs union and NEW single market. But still leave.

Genius and obviously very plausible stuff.

I hope he’s in favour of an EU army. It makes so much more sense than us struggling by with the overstretched and underfunded military we have at the moment and we’re  always bleating on about our EU partners not contributing their share militarily so an EU army would be the perfect solution.

We’ll probably never know how a labour negotiation would go, but at least the internal market was an ambitious proposal which would have limited the economic impact of Brexit. Far better than anything the Tories put forward in two years of negotiations, but Labour aren’t limited by harder leave factions like the ERG, who will accept economic loss for ideological gain.

May desperate for a deal while promising things only no deal could deliver has left us with next to nothing.

The best summary of our current position was made as long ago as March 2018 by the Luxembourg prime minister Xavier Bettel who said: “They were in with loads of opt-outs and now want out with loads of opt-ins.”

Even May admits that her proposed deal is worse for Britain than staying in the EU.

So you think the Labour party will have the sense to ditch Corbyn before the next general election?

It seems very unlikely.

The only problem I have with the labour position is the pretence that it involves leaving the EU. It doesn't.
