Betrayed?

[Jordyboy9]

I dont know enough about politics or religion so i dont discuss them, i dont want to start another brexit thread,so this is a quesion do the people who voted to go feel betrayed by teresa may,as they are not getting what they voted out for.I would say yes they are

[Old_Geezer]

We vited for a planned goal, the lies came from those committed to denying the democratic decision, many of which are MPs, but we have to go with what we have. We weren't taken in by lies, we are fighting betrayal. It's a different ball game.

spath at 16:53. what on earth are you talking about? You might have had no idea but some of us did.

Sorry Jordy, got to ask.

[Old_Geezer]

You voted leave, and lost the vote. At that point, if you believe in democracy, you go along with the majority and not continue deliberately trying to thwart the decision.

[naomi24]

Thank you, Jordy. You're very kind.

[jourdain2]

Yes.

If I were a brexiteer I'd feel very betrayed by this Tory government .

I did not vote for any lies or misrepresentations (bar one - see below).

I have said many times on here that the two campaigns had no influence whatsoever on my vote. I decided in 1992 (look up what happened that year if you're unsure its significance) that if ever I was given the opportunity to vote on the issue, I would vote to leave. Nothing in the 2016 campaigns persuaded me otherwise. (In fact, there is nothing that would have persuaded me to vote otherwise).

The only misrepresentation I may still suffer is this: the question we were asked was do we want the UK to leave or remain in the EU. It was made quite clear that leaving would mean no longer being a part of the Single Market or the Customs Union and that the ECJ would no longer have any influence over UK affairs. This was as expected and the government of the day said it would implement our decision. Mrs May's proposals keep the UK in the Single Market for most goods. The press reports suggest that we would not be in a single market for services but since there is not one at present (nor is there ever likely to be) I don't really see why this should be mentioned. The proposals also keep the UK in "a Customs Union" and worse than that we shall be obliged to collect EU taxes on their behalf. The ECJ will also hold sway over large areas of legislation including the environment (meaning we cannot pursue our own energy policies). The proposals also mean keeping alignment with the rules on State industry subsidies meaning that should Mr Corbyn lead a government, he will not be able to enact key areas of his policies on nationalisation and state support.

You may be perfectly happy to your elected government emasculated in this fashion, unable to enact key commitments from its manifesto, all so that you can send your stuff to Sweden without completing a customs declaration (for that is, at worst, all it would amount to). Personally I think that is an extremely short-sighted attitude because there are far, far bigger issues at stake.

That was a swift transition from gardener to international entrepreneur.

[marval]

Yes

You voted REMAIN, and lost the vote. At that point, if you believe in democracy, you go along with the majority and not continue deliberately trying to thwart the decision.
