Brexit? Yay or Nay.

Most of the polling suggests that Boris will win but not all of them. ComRes released one the other day that had Labour one point ahead. Remember that when the last election was called, the Tories were twenty points ahead of Labour in pretty much all of the polls and yet they lost their majority. Things can change quickly though it obviously looks unlikely atm.

The extension has been agreed in principle and an election looks nailed on now for December. We will know on Monday whether the extension is until mid November or the end of January.

A second referendum is the only way to solve all of this imo.

For sure. Keep taking mulligans until your side wins. It’s only fair.

Fluff is right: a second ref is what's needed. And anyway the 1st one was corruptly won

Come on, EU! Quit being ****ing pussies and tell England no ****ing extensions and no referendums. "You voted to be out so you're getting out and you're getting out now and we don't much give a toss how you feel about it." You know you want to, France! You've wanted to ever since Crecy!

yeah its an old tradition in Europe/EU to tumble referendums.
in most of the cases you have to vote again (ireland, france,.....)
In Greece we had a lot of fun voting 60% no to fiscal measures while in full pressure mode (eu officials and the media talkin armageddon, banks were closed then having capital controls and ques in front of the atm machines etc) and then overnight we ended up doing the exact opppossite of what was voted.
they didnt even give us a chance to change our minds.
