British Indy: What Happens Now?

Discussion in 'Wasteland' started by Loz, May 23, 2015.

?
  1. Full Brexit with "no EU deal" on the 29th March.

  2. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a general election and new negotiations.

  3. Request Extension to article 50 to allow cross party talks and a new deal to be put to EU.

  4. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a second referendum on 1. Remain in EU or 2. Full Brexit.

  5. Table a motion in parliament to Remain in EU WITHOUT a referendum.

  6. I don't know or I don't care anymore

Results are only viewable after voting.
  1. In terms of an election, the only people that win are politicians surely.
     
  2. No, Alan.

    In a Labour-stronghold constituency, votes necessary for the Labour candidate to win are created as required.

    Otherwise, non-votes count towards the candidate with the most votes.

    I shouldn't have to explain all this : o )
     
  3. Bookies, Alan.

    Bookies win, too.

  4. OK how about you explaining to me how not voting will bring change?
     
  5. By not voting, you show your support for the candidate who receives the most votes!

    If that candidate promotes change, you are promoting change by not voting against him!
     
  6. Now you’ve got me, it won’t. Unless no one votes or everyone votes none of the above, given the option.
     
  7. I would say you show support for that candidate, isn’t it more you don’t care enough to vote against them.
     
  8. "If you aren't against us, you're with us!"

    I thought everyone knew that.
     
  9. I meant wouldn’t say it supports that candidate, but never mind.

  10. You are a lift short of a Happy Meal, aren't you?

  11. probably. I still don’t see how not voting is showing support for the winning candidate though.
     
  12. Do you know they have stopped doing toys with happy meals?
     
  13. Since "no one votes or everyone votes none of the above, given the option" is as likely as the moon being made of cheese after all can we safely discount that option?

    Which must mean you are fine with things as they are?
     
  14. I’m not allowed to dream then.

    I can’t see things changing so I will have to be and will probably vote Labour.
     
  15. Shall we all vote SNP, and then vote to remain in the UK?

    Gotta be worth a laugh surely?

  16. I know.

    You'll get there though. You'll figure it out.
     
    • Thanks Thanks x 1
  17. We can all dream & vote as we like including not doing either.

    What we can't reasonably do is not participate and then complain.
