That’s a wonderful argument. Many levels above your usual contributions.
You what?
What about all my well informed posts regarding our phoney (English) captain of Wales?
You must have missed them.
have you thought of starting a Uk Gov petitionyou might have to prove your reasons behind it, it seems to be a popular question on here
I think his days are over anyway, my work is done!

It's interesting that most of the people asking for a second referendum are Remainers. I presume they are making the assumption that the result will be different second time around - where is the evidence that this might be the case? Cameron's big mistake was not insisting that a minimum of a two-thirds majority would be required!
Yep, how badly done was it ffs...should have been more clear gap for victory either way. Had no faith in politicians before this, doubt anyone has any at all now. We might aswell go all the way and scrap the archaic shite 2 party system we do have.
5.3m signatures now.
It would obviously be close and is therefore worth a second go at it for the remain stabd-point.
I think it’s probably more of an emotive thing though anyway. A sense of hope that people might be finally realising the shit they are getting into.
I feel like some leavers who got swept up in the tabloid push for a leave vote might not be bothered to vote thia time round. I know people like this.
I also know remainers who didn’t vote because they thought remain was a given.
From the Telegraph:
“Truly, Brexit Derangement Syndrome has gone viral.
So far, an impressive list of characters has signed the petition. Jacob Rees-Mogg has given it his seal of approval over 8,000 times. Idi Amin, of all people, has signed it over 700 times. Journalist Julia Hartley-Brewer registered herself under the name “Remoaner McRemoanface”, seemingly without detection. One Leaver, Bruce Lawson, testing the online system’s limits, found that he could sign the petition on multiple email accounts. Others have set up automated systems to sign up over and over again.
Signatures have been pouring in from North Korea to Russia to the Vatican City. Clearly, the rest of the world feels Britain is making a huge mistake – they must do, if the Holy See, the leader of the ERG and a deceased Ugandan warlord are all united in their attempts to thwart Brexit. It emerges that the petition’s creator, one Margaret Georgiadou, had joked about killing the PM and shooting Brexiteers “with impunity” on her Facebook account. You couldn’t make it up.
All this tells us what we already knew – the petition isn’t worth the e-paper it’s written on.”
JRMogg has 8000 different email addresses....wow...
Jeez, the theories about this damn petition. Given that 16.1 million people voted to remain, is it so incredulous that 5 million of those might sign a petition (notwithstanding the hordes of people just 'testing' the system)? The question should be where are the other 11 million or are they content with how things are progressing?
Another nail in the Brexit coffin in Parliament tonight. It will be buried completely by this time next week.
Minister resigns. His seat, Watford, had 10,000 signatures on the petition. His majority was about 2000. The petition is having an effect.
Stupid post. He got over 26000 votes in the election and Labour in second place got 24000. Total electorate vote was 58600 on a 68% turnout. How on earth do you know which 10000 signed the petition. The 10000 is only 20% of the voters in the constituency. That means the other 76000 on the electiral roll could all be leavers for all you know. The Minister has been on tv this morning. He actually support the Government Brexit deal agreed with EU and has voted for it. He just wants alternatives in case it doesnt get through to avoid no deal.
Brexit is gradually dying. The Brexiteers won the Referendum but lost the argument ever since. Empty vessels.
The new referendum will have 3 questions
1 In
2 Out
3 Okey Dokey
There will be a backlash before long from brexiteers.
Brexit will never be stopped.
The remainers are the equivalent of the Trump Russian Collusion believers, they have swallowed the BS narrative hook, line and sinker. The only difference is Trump is still standing, while the Brexit crowd are on their knees
As long as the MPs of Cardiff back remain and make it as difficult as possible for the rich English elite to line their pockets (which is what we voted for) they are doing their jobs in line with the wishes of the people who voted for them.
Interestingly there was another petition along similar lines that was raised shortly after the (advisory) referendum.
That one got slightly over 1 million votes, but the interesting thing is where the signatories were located.
In the original one the signatories were clustered around areas that were strongly remain in the (illegally campaigned) referendum, as you would expect.
This time round the signatories were a lot more evenly spread. More in remain areas, but not much more.
Also notably, in both petitions there was notably few signatories from the valleys.
That shouldn't be a surprise, it is a matter of public record.
A group of Remainers make their way to the London protest

One of these was a march to leave, one a march to remain.
Can you guess which?
