Thatcher loved the EU Single Market. 

 

The Single Market was designed by Margaret Thatcher’s government in the 1980s to benefit the bosses.

 

"A single market without barriers – visible or invisible – giving you direct and unhindered access to the purchasing power of over 300 million of the world's wealthiest and most prosperous people". Margaret Thatcher,  Lancaster House 1988 to an audience of bosses.

 

If you love the EU and the Single Market, you also love Maggie Thatcher.

 

 

Where am I going wrong.

No time for Maggie,but total support for the EU.

Of the PM's in living memory, she won a legitimate war and rightful crushed a union that was holding the country to ransom. In doing so, she bought the unions' power into check. So I do consider, her competent. So which of your favourite Labour sons would you think is easily competent, Blair?

I think the EU might offer a shorter extension of one month or less to allow time for the bill to discussed in Parliament.  There will be a new Speaker of the House after 31st October which is good news for the Government.  The first vote tonight was the more important vote that Boris won.  The law forcing an extension could very well backfire on the Brexit blockers in Parliament.

So you reckon that Parliament can give proper consideration to all this

in 3 days?

 

Why not have proper scrutiny like we would with a normal bill instead of trying to railroad such an important bill through in a less than a week.

Looks like he's still Prime Minister.

Following Tuesday's Commons votes, a Downing Street source said Parliament "blew its last chance".

Because then Johnson can prove to the country that he's as good as his word; and dispel the gossip that he's a lying, mendacious, power hungry ego-maniac.

If we don't deliver Brexit then a hard right Tory government with a working majority will be in power for the next five years.

 

It's a straight choice between leaving the EU or Tory austerity. I choose Brexit every time!

Wow.

 

Thats, erm, impressive on some levels.

Being from Barnsley is not to be proud of, when you have residents voting for Brexit because “they wanted to keep the Muslims out, but free movement within the EU was ok”. 
 

Well done there. 

I can't see why folk in Barnsley wouldn;t be so proud....

The views of the Monk Bretton Civil Servants for a Marxist / Moggist Revolutionary Brexit don't seem to have a lot of support.

So one or two people voting for their own reasons in a UK wide ballot means we should disapprove of an entire town?

I think that you will find it is more than just one or two. 
 

Some of the most reactionary views on Brexit have been from interviews done with the people of Barnsley. Let’s not forget the guy in the barber shop interviewed on Look North the day after the referendum who said “Great news! Now when are we going to get rid of the effing immigrants?” I know a load of people who still think that when we leave the EU, all non-white people will have to leave.

 

If Car Boot thinks that he is going to build a revolution with the help of the dumbest, most racist and reactionary section of the working class he is in for a shock.

So you are advocating a referendum for all registered voters but only offering options supported by a minority of those voters.

 

You do realise how bonkers that sounds, don’t you?

We have already had a referendum on whether to Leave the EU or not - the result was decisively to Leave. If we do have another referendum it should be about HOW we Leave.

 

If Remain is an option then the referendum is simply a Losers' Vote.

 

A  few thousand sore losers trying to overturn the democratic vote of 17.4 million people, at a time when 54% of the British public now support the UK abiding by the referendum result and leaving the EU - regardless of the way they voted in the Referendum.

 

Most people’s preferred outcome is for the UK to leave the EU, not to have a Losers' Vote to rerun the 2016 referendum.

Let's vilify an entire town because a tiny handful of its residents have been deliberately chosen by the mass media to belittle anybody daring to vote Leave.

 

The tactics of the Losers is beyond belief.
