Sure they can at the next election once this one has been implemented. Nothing lasts forever and every decision can eventually be reversed that's a...

So, that means the voter is not allowed to change his mind even on the basis of a better understanding of the matter at hand?

Because they lost already. Enact what was won and then judge from there.

Funny how the British government is talking about continuing talks with the EU confirming there are no talks. Who are the Brits talking with?

And why should a majority for remain have to wait for maximum damage?

Considering I started making the comparison before the referendum (thus before the vote and its aftermath) there's no dishonesty intended by...

The relationships between the GDP/capita metric for the UK, NZ and CA, with or without adjustment for PPP, have been relatively constant for the past...

Not sure what you're trying to prove there. Since 1998 we've kind of plateaued relative to CA and NZ? Not exactly a great argument in favour of...

I just provided a graph over the last couple of decades, 11 minutes after suggesting it, which was the time it took for me to get the graph...

Yeah, except: https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.PCAP.CD?end=2015&locations=GB-CA-NZ&start=1998

I suggest you stop trying to play silly buggers. Compare the UK's GDP/capita with or without adjustment for PPP to that of Canada and NZ—the only two...

Really, looking at that graph and comparing us to France, it seems we are doing well despite not because of the EU. But either way its hard to...

Interesting graph gogo. Rather proves my point. For nearly a decade after we joined in '73 we did worse than any of the other nations compared to....

Please, stop. This is even more asinine than your first claim. The UK's economy is not particularly similar to either Australia's or the US's. It...

It's perfectly possible to put forward an objective view of the pros and cons over the last 40 years. It's not easy, I'll admit, but it's possible. ...

You got a more meaningful comparison than the nations we share the most with historically, culturally and linguistically across the globe? As I...

That is an impressive list of meaningless comparisons.

Surely Sharia is banned by the 1st Amendment?

It's not possible to prove, as the counter-factual of us being outside doesn't exist. So it depends upon what evidence you seek and what you believe....

Agreed. Who said that? Agreed. It's kinda hard to have a close relationship with May's red lines If the evidence suggested that...

Probably got hotlinking disabled.

Think you've posted a bad link perhaps? I'm not seeing anything at all.

No, I think the 'vote again until you get it right' tendency is pathetic, but I wouldn't say that. Personally I think any second referendum should...

Spreading the message that we should sit down, shut up and let others who "know better" decide what to is pathetic and childish too. The solution to...

Into the Spider-verse Among the best Marvel movies to date, and right up there with some of the most enjoyable animated movies of the past decade....

Look familiar?

So, you don't share the concerns of a second referendum threatening the very core of democracy?
