Howmanheyman 29175 Posted Wednesday at 16:37 Share Posted Wednesday at 16:37 At my new work a kid asked a few of us how we were voting? He obviously didn't have a clue as he asked 'are ukip still around?' the bloke training me said he'd already voted by post and was voting reform. He's been sound so far so it's a bit of a shame to find out he's easily conned or just a straight up racist idiot. Two other blokes said nothing but I said labour and just mentioned to the kid he wouldn't have his holiday pay, workers rights etc if that party hadn't existed and left it at that. I don't think the younger kid will vote as it happens. The daft thing is they're working at a non unionised workplace, the wage is a fucking disgrace for what they're doing and one of them is voting reform? Sometimes you get what you you deserve but you also drag others down. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife says she doesn't think she can vote labour as they've said they're going to privatise the NHS. I just said 'no they're not' as she's obviously getting her info from corbynista Facebook group or something? She hates Starmer and Jess Phillips almost as much as the Tories. I can't be arsed to argue with her about this anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, so he says he can't foresee us rejoining in his lifetime, not that he would stop us joining in his lifetime. Subtle difference there. At the age of 61 he's probably right. He's talked to European leaders more than you have and understands the barriers on their side as much as ours. They won't even countenance our rejoining unless all parties favoured it and there was huge public opinion for it. I'd be much more optimistic about SM and CU membership, but I just can't see us adopting the euro and accepting Schenghen. My own opinion is we're not a good fir for the EU, as demonstrated when we were in it. We still need to be a satellite of it though, and the bonds will grow closer, immediately. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 38348 Posted Wednesday at 17:05 Share Posted Wednesday at 17:05 (edited) Stella Creasy was on with Krishnan Guru-Murthy on his C4 podcast recently. She is very keen on us rejoining but says that it is a 7 to 10 year process, and that there is way too much else that needs sorting domestically to divert the kind of resources that would be required to achieve this in the near term. That being the case, why would you say anything other than that we're not planning on rejoining. Edited Wednesday at 17:06 by Gemmill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter bollocks as I said repeatedly at the time. 79% of Labour voters were remain. Higher than any other party besides the Greens. And on Wes Streeting. Last time I mentioned this you told me he was playing to the Sun reading crowd with that. Now you think he's right. I don't need a response to this, I know you're going to say whatever suits supporting Starmer so it really is a pointless conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I heard that as well. One of the worst things abour Brexit was the bandwidth it took up. We can't afford to repeat that again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
