Is Gary Lineker a national treasure?

[lasharoo]

Lash has a touch of class unlike the rest of you feral Gammons, so I treat him with the respect he deserves.

Is he sucking a bitter lemon in this one.

AB actually goaded me first.

No he did not. He posted once and got your favourite team wrong in a post that was in no way abusive.
This isn't helping you.

This also begs the question, how do you know how i voted in that referendum? You've never once actually asked me, so for all you know i may have voted stay, but i suppose given your obvious level of immaturity, simply squeaking gammon! At all and sundry passes for adult debate.

And lash is a toady!

And lash is a toady!

Not so much a toady BSB, more an admirer.......do we disagree on certain subjects? Hell yeah, but Maude is cut from the same cloth as a long and distinguished line of proud Yorkshiremen, they call a spade a spade and don't suffer fools gladly.........he's never afraid to stick his head above the parapet when the political brickbats are flying and will never shirk from voicing an opinion in the face of overwhelming hostility.......love him or hate him, you simply can't ignore him!

Well that's fine Lash but that fellow Maude doesn't seem to realise the majority voted for Brexit and will use insults, racism and petty digs to those that voted for it and seems determined to overturn democracy.

An interesting view that pressing on regardless is democracy.

Whereas giving people the opportunity to vote NOW THEY KNOW VERY MUCH MORE is seen as anti-democratic.

[AlcoholBrazil]

Or seeing how the EU treated democracy when they were rejected by Ireland and the Netherlands. Total contempt for the subjects
that they rule over. Repeating elections until the correct result occurs is their template response to this to bring their
colonies to heel. March 29th can't come fast enough . Let's see how popular applying as a new member to the E.U. will be with
Schengen and the adoption of the Euro on the table.

we had democracy

democracy won

but democracy will lose in the end

brexit, as we voted for, will not happen

brexit lite at best or a complete turnaround

Ever thought of looking up the word "omnipresent"?

[Eaststand]

To be fair Hillman, you cant keep on having a vote until you get the answer you want, thats not democracy, thats a dictatorship pretending to give the people a voice.

[Hillman avenger]

I agree.
But there are three things..
1. We live in a Parliamentary system, which has serious difficulties dealing with any alternative decision-making process.
2. In this particular case, the information and implications of the vote have really only become apparent since the vote. Before the vote we either didn't know or didn't listen. If people voted Leave again now, that would extinguish opposition.
3. During the campaign, and expecting to lose, Farage said a result, for example, 52/48 ( he chose that) would not be conclusive.

Hillman believes in dictatorships. The kind where a self selecting bunch of lefties get together , decide they are far more intelligent than everyone else and then rule over us forever because we are too thick to know know what want and might just decide we want something they don't.

Ring any bells?

[m4rkb]

In fairness I think what Farage said was written on the side of a bus rather than words he actually said so it doesn't count.

[Hillman avenger]

No he said it, on record.
As for the point about dictatorship, I will treat that with the contempt you deserve.
