A very poor advert. It's quite deliberate. Have to chuckle at the private jet pish as well. Boris Johnston was crying that he should get exactly that. The hunting whales one is baffling too. Surely being in the EU you'd have more chance of being able to influence or introduce policy (that covers a far larger number of people) that cuts down on the number of whales that can be hunted?

Where in the definition of colony does it say that. It is only adjacent to Spain because the Castilians and Aragonians stole it off the Moors. N Ireland is also a colony champ. Your mental gymnastics are never going to be able to make colonialism a good thing. Keep trying though, amazing how blind and ignorant people become when it's their country involved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as for colonialism, who decides what is and what isn't colonialism?..should the billion people from the Americas of non indigenous decent leave? Aye they had a referendum champ, kind of supercedes your poll. The UN. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the article says, there is zero evidence that any of the 27 are getting railroaded on the EU position. They all support it and May is deluded to think otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakedee Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Why is Theresa May trampsing around European Countries meeting with their heads of state (Austria today). Surely these Countries can't make a bilateral deal with the UK after brexit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is this guy's broughtupness? Supercedes (sic) is spelled 'supersedes', from Latin: super -on top of, and sedere - to sit.

Yeahhh....eh , polls tend to be a small cross section of public opinion...hence the term 'poll' ...but still I'd say 20 years of various independent and government backed polls point to a more accurate picture of public opinion in the region, than a boycotted illegal referendum where only the pro indy people really voted.

I would say your methodology is slightly more flawed than mine champ.Dont you claim to have a masters in politics? Pep, do you know how sampling works? Look I support Scottish and Catalan independence but based on polls and indeed actual elections/referenda its clear we are in the minority. Please stop being so aggressive to folks who disagree with you? It just contributes to the ‘cybernat’ label that reflects badly on all of us! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw plenty of polls predicting a close election but Clinton winning, which due to the electoral college/popular vote discrepancy she did win so the sampling would actually have been pretty spot on really, just the interpretation of the results. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
