The most recent credible poll - the EU elections - will reveal that the demand for Brexit is bigger than ever.

It won't actually. It will show that support for Leave at about 35% which is actually 2% lower than in 2016.

You do realise that everybody else recognises, and more importantly accepts, that the result for Leave in 2016 was 52 per cent?

 

If you can't get even the basics right, then what can you get right?

What is to accept? You know the referendum result of 2016 is becoming less relevant as each day goes by. If the result was so important, we would have left by now.

If there wasn't so many remainers in government we should have left by now.

You are trying to compare apples and oranges. 

 

The polls are are showing that about 35% of the electorate will vote UKIP or Brexit Party. 37% of the electorate voted Leave in 2016.

You're also comparing apples and oranges yourself. Your 37% in the referendum is 37% of the entire electorate. The 35% voting for the brexit party is those who intend to vote.

You can't apply two sets of rules then criticise others for doing it!

Plus, you're implying no Leave supporters voted tory, labour or green etc. That clearly wont be the case.

Part 7, hoping this is the part where I see a genuine positive for leaving.

 

Come on leavers, lets do this!!!!

Leaving would support the concept of democracy's "first past the post" voting system. We voted to leave, and leave the EU is what we will probably do. Surely, doing what the people want is a positive?

Leave voters won the referendum, and will win the EU elections, so have democracy on their side.

 

Remain voters lost the referendum (which some refuse to accept), will lose the EU elections, and only really have milkshakes as an example of their moral authority.

A return to pre 1867 suffrage would put a stop to all this nonesense. The unruly rabble could be ignored and we could just mock their stupidity, and leave them to watch Jeremy Kyle and scoff KFC, whilst their superiors made the important decisions.

This is the most understood thing about our democracy. In fact, the majority here don’t actually understand that our democracy is a representative one. We trust the MPs who we elect to act on our behalf in making decisions that are in our best interests. It absolutely does not say do as we say. The fact that the obvious majority don’t know what is actually in our best interests, which is the fundamental problem, it is up to the MPs to decide for us.
