As the Remoaners cling on to their hope that Britain's got Brexit fatigue: The 10 awkward questions you should throw at the next EU 'Rejoiner' who corners you at a dinner party.
Disgruntled ‘Remainers’ – those politicians, civil servants and lobbyists who have wanted to pull us backwards since we voted decisively to leave the European Union – have a spring in their step.
Last week, on the third anniversary of our departure from the EU, a survey found that some 57 per cent of Britons were now in favour of rejoining.

Yes it was,if you consider the number of govts of this country elected on a minority vote. You may not like it,I’ve disliked a lot of stuff over the years but democracy such as it is proves a bugger when you don’t like the result but it should be accepted. And therein lies the problem that a large proportion of the establishment did not like the result and from day one openly and furtively have sought to discredit and overturn that vote and continue to do so. |

The Remoaner Fuckwits in the Welsh Assembly booed Theresa May when she came to address them and mocked her 52 to 48 majority The Welsh Assembly was established after a single wheelbarrow of postal votes from Caernarfon was wheeled in to the counting arena having been ‘unexpectedly’ discovered after about five hours of counting. I was standing in the public area of the count and saw it. The added votes pushed the verdict from no to yes by a majority of 50.9 to 49.8 on a turnout of what was it 39% i don’t recall If the cottage burners can call that a mandate for independence - and always have - then they should take the 17 million 52% majority for Brexit straight up the shitter and smile about it. |

Good article. It still annoys me that our useless politicians actually agreed to pay to leave the EU. That's how useless May was.

10) Would Rejoiners commit to a referendum to approve the terms negotiated for a new relationship with the EU?I think I can already guess at the answer to this one..

Was that the poll where some criminal stole your vote? The Welsh Labour like to pretend they are remainers, but Wales voted to leave. |

Brexit is a loser so far. Maybe that's why there are so many Brexit whingers  |

IF it came to the point of actually rejoining the EU then things would have actually gone so drastically wrong with Brexit that membership would be deemed a necessity. I would favour a return to our normal position of Representative Democracy and allow the government to negotiate the terms of the new relationship. |

Was that the poll where some criminal stole your vote? The Welsh Labour like to pretend they are remainers, but Wales voted to leave. Im not sure In the 1997 poll my postal vote was interfered with. It never arrived although the electoral registration people say they sent it. I was working at a client in Leeds until the day before the vote. I was told by the electoral registration office there was insufficient time to send me a new ballot paper and for me to return it. So i was denied a vote. Ironically once at the count i had a chance to mention this to the returning officer who was chatting with various people in the public gallery waiting for the boxes to arrive. She was quite concerned because had the electoral office in Newport known i was at home they should have told me to come there and then to their office where they would have issued a fresh paper to me on the day. I could then have gone home, sealed the vote in the official envelope and taken it to my polling station where the presiding officer would have noted my name marked as a postal voter and would have taken my postal vote and handed it in as a sealed postal vote with the ballit box. I explained i contacted the electoral people from my client in Leeds and hadn’t expected to be back for the weekend. I don’t blame the electoral office for what happened and i was grateful for the returning officers advice. But yes i had no vote on that day but i don’t know if someone else had it It was my vote for the welsh assembly elections around 2003 and 2007 that were intercepted and falsified. On each occasion my ballot papers failed to arrive at home and knowing what i knew from 1997 i turned up both times at the electoral office to complain. On both occasions they said they had already received my vote. They fetched the documents from the files and showed me. Both were clear forgeries of my signature on the envelope. I called the police who on the first occasion didn't give a fuck but on the second sent a man round. On each of those the fraudster failed as i was in time to vote there and then at the electoral office To be scrupulously fair on those two last times either the staff deserve Oscar awards for best actor or were genuinely apalled at what had been done under their noses. |

The 11th question might be, what are we rejoining.
When the UK joined the Common Market in 1973 there were six other nations: France, West Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg.They were all rich and their politics could safely be ignored.
Now the Remainers, who hate their own country, want to rejoin the EU, a polygot empire whose next eight members are Turkey, North Macedonia ,, Montenegro , Serbia,, Albania, Moldova, Ukraine, and Bosnia and Herzegovina and whole are largely skint and desperate to go to war with each other.
The best solution might be to move all Remainers to Scotland and Northern Ireland, both nations eager to kiss Brussels' arse, give them their independence and let them sell themselves out to the EU. The rest of the UK could then tick over as best it can

Throughout the turbulent years that Michel Barnier spent dealing with Brexit, the former EU negotiator’s endless talks with British counterparts failed to help him answer the simplest of questions – what did they want Brexit to achieve? “For me, for many of us, Brexit remains a nonsense,” he told the Observer. “Taking into account British national interest, there is no added value to being outside the single market and the customs union. Throughout this process, I asked British leaders every day –from all the parties, [Nigel] Farage, trade unions or the business community – to give me proof for the added value of Brexit. Nobody was able to do this.” I like the way that the Observer thinks its up to a French politician to determine what is in the British national interest.. |
