Brexit Penny Dropping?

Jeez, how many more times ?

The referendum was a UK referendum and as such there were no “parts”

None as either you are simply not reading the posts or don't have the capacity to understand the point I am making. What part of "All parts of the UK should accept the result of a referendum if all parts of the UK had an equal vote in the election" do you not understand?

Having said that, if Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland want to leave the UK and because separate countries then at that point it is their choice and not the UK's or what remains of the UK as to what relationship they have with anybody. When Irish separation came about they were no longer governed by or subject to the laws of the UK, although your posts suggests you believe they should still be subject to UK law. Should Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland decide to follow Ireland and leave the UK then it is up to them what relationships they have anybody. It would not be the UK's position to jump up and down and demand that as they were part of the UK when the UK voted to leave the EU they must respect the vote and not consider re-joining now they are independent.

Nope. Everyone knew there would be some downsides ( freedom of movement etc). It wasn’t a secret 

They voted as to whether the upsides outweighed then

Maybe you should listen again to what Michael Gove was telling the public at the time https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/watch-remember-when-gove-promised-uk-would-hold-all-the-cards-after-brexit-205874/

Quoting the remain campaign to make his point he states  "we hold all the cards" "Nothing is going to happen in the first 5 years if we come out.  "There will be absolutely no change"

Don't make foolish statements which a 30 second internet search can show to be at fault as it just dents the credibility of your posts.

Brexit continues to devour its children. 

 

Thread...

Understood very little of this . Twitter posts being deleted all the time. Talk of a middle question without a middle question being posed.

At the end of the day the UK voted for Brexit. It has happened. I would urge you to use your time more productively than being bitter about a result you cannot change.
