That's the money sent to the eu. It was never a promise it would all go to the NHS cause for a start farage isn't pm so it's not down to him but the point was that money like that could do a lot in the UK and the NHS was the prime example, he said no less when interviewed though anything he does say gets twisted

It also wasn't £350m. Not even close.

If you're going to write a sodding great number in an enormous promise on the side of a bus, you get your facts straight.

What figure was it? You sound very bitter about the whole thing, you wouldn't be one of those who signed the petition to hold another referendum would you? That's good old democracy for you right there.

It was a gross figure, even George Osbourne recognises that it's an accurate figure, we know the "net" figure is half of that, the leave campaign was as much about us not having a choice on where that half goes when it comes back into our own country than it was the actual net figure.

I do feel both sides of the campaign manipulated truth but should we have expected any different? We are to blame as we vote the muppet's into power in the first place, I am voting for the monster raving loony party at the next election, they best reflect me :)

People with brain would know that figure wouldn't be used on the NHS alone,but because they worded it and promoted it that way is what i think angered a lot of people and of course politicians are liars from get go its known fact.

No. Fundamentally me and half the country have an entirely different wish. We do not have to submit to the beck and call of the other half.


We all know that politicians are liars, anyone who listened to them, the media pundits or the bookies are the fools.

Like i said before, the time for being vocal was before the vote currently they are all wasting our time and money continuing with the bickering about the vote.

It will be at least 5 years before anyone can say " i told you so"

I like you a lot. Big deep eyes and that fuzzy hair. But the quote above illustrates huge problems. A vote is a vote. You then abide by the outcome. The majority was slim but it was over a million people.
I voted for Scottish independence. Vote went other way but I accept it without condition.

Not every 'leave' vote was from the mind of a rabid racist and not every 'remain' vote was pragmatic. The UK will survive outside of political union with Europe. We will trade (at a disadvantage) with it but be free to negotiate our own deals elsewhere.

The largest problem with the EU is the power Brussels holds. It doesn't matter I didn't vote conservative, what matters is they won the mandate to govern the UK.
We do not get to choose our EU masters. It's an in house boys club. A lot of them hate us too.

Fear of the future should never govern a hopeful heart. The UK is an incredibly diverse and great country, don't do it a disservice by thinking we need European political integration to survive.

Honestly I'm at a loss. Its gotten to the point where I hate this entire debate. In my principals I cannot understand why 17 million people can decide the fate of the entire 66 million residents in the UK(granted many of those are children, but this is their future).

The last general election was the first time I voted, because before that I hated the political landscape with immense disgust. Now I'm part of it I feel no different.

My point is I don't believe this referendum should have ever happened. Its not the kind of decision I'd put to the public.

But you would trust a politician to make the same decision?

Nope. Perhaps the issue at large is our politicians. We should probably solve that problem before we breach one like the EU. I'm not qualified to make an educated decision about the EU, and I would dare say most of the UK wasn't either.

The whole referendum has sort of encouraged racial discrimination even more than it is,i know racism will always exist but surely people shouldn't be encouraging it a lot more now because we have voted to be out of EU.
There are many things i dislike and name a few of them are parents that don't teachtheir kids manners and respect for other cultural background *racial comment from 3 little kids outside my house*,politics and media itself.

No disrespect but those are the words you expect to hear from a Dictator
We the public have the right to voice our concerns as to who and how we are governed
ITs OUR Future After all
and our Society is Democratic ( i still hope and Believe )

In a Democracy Its the Will of the Majority

That regulation was dismissed in 2008. We've had bent bananas for the last 8 years and nobody noticed.
