What if brexit never happened

What if brexit never happened  What if Brexit never happens? What if our politicians never are able to deliver Brexit and end up revoking article 50. Well in this video I speculate the possible scenarios that might lead up to Brexit not happening and remaining in the European Union. Firstly the Tories and Labour would likely suffer heavy losses in both the local elections and the European parliamentary elections later this month. This could force deadlock in the ongoing talks between labour and the conservatives. Labour would look towards a second referendum and the tories would look towards leaving without a deal. The tories might want to oust may which could spark a general election. But even after a general election there might not be a large enough majority for any party leading to a hung parliament. That might mean no majority can be sought in indicative votes in parliament and could result in us running down the clock till the 31st of October. What i...

Awkward argument between Will Self and Brexiteer MP Mark Francois has to be seen to be believed Posted  Friday 8 March 2019 16:45  by  Jack Webb  in  news UPVOTE Conservative  MP Mark Francois  and author Will Self were locked in a heated and altogether bizarre argument about  Brexit  that culminated in an excruciatingly long stare off. Appearing on BBC's Politics Live, Francios was furious after Mr Self suggested: It's got a lot to do with Brexit. Well, because since 2016 your problem really, Mark is not that you have to be a racist or an anti-semite to vote for Brexit. It's just that every racist and anti-semite in the country did. Mark not really understanding what Self meant or just choosing not listening, seems to quickly jump to the defence of racists and anti-semites: I think that’s a slur on 17.4 million people and I think you should apologise on national television. I think that's an outrageous th...

Close The Leave.EU scandal proves the Brexit vote was rotten – only a second referendum can give us a fair result We are ready now as we were not in 2016 to make the judgement Sean O'Grady   @_seanogrady 13 hours ago 514 shares 45 comments Click to follow The Independent Voices All’s fair in love, war and democratic elections I suppose. I’ve lived through enough of them to take manifestos and “read my lips” type pledges with a shovel full of salt. I’ve even participated in a few dodgy ones myself – student contests and by-elections stand out in the memory for low-level dirty trickery. I’m not proud of that. Even so, the more we know about the Brexit referendum of 2016 the more it feels like a campaign that crossed a few lines. Legal ones in fact, with successful prosecutions against both Remain and Leave groups. The latest  accusations levelled at the Leave.EU campaign  are disturbing. Then again you only have to read ...

Annunziata Rees-Mogg was introduced by the former Ukip leader at the party’s campaign launch at a factory in Coventry. Addressing cheering supporters, Ms Rees-Mogg said it was not a decision she had taken lightly after years loyally supporting the Tories. “I joined the Conservative Party in 1984 and this is not a decision I have made lightly – to leave a party for which I have fought at every election since 1987, from Maggie Thatcher through to Theresa May. “I know which one I’d rather have representing us now.” Nigel Farage and Annunziata Rees-Mogg at the launch of the Brexit Party’s European election campaign (Joe Giddens/PA) She added: “The point at which our ...
