Or is it supposition? It certainly was. Apparently there were so many people they were still arriving at the square 5 hours after it finished. It's reckoned to be the biggest march of the century.

Scully Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 Yes, it could have gone either way.....BUT IT DIDN’T! 😃 Sorry, couldn’t resist. I’m not here for the ‘jest’; I think it’s too serious for that. Whether we stay or go, there are going to be a lot of exceptionally resentful people in the country; the ( especially political ) ramifications could go on for years. If my family ( who normally vote Tory ) don’t vote Tory, like they claim, and don’t vote for any other party, they will cost that party eight votes. But if they all vote for another party they in effect have cost them sixteen! Not sure which way I’ll vote yet. 🙂 5 minutes ago, oowee said: It certainly was.

oowee Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) I also read that the woman that created the Brexit petition has had death threats against her. The same for Anna Soubery having to stay away from home. Unbelievable, despicable behavior. There is something wrong with people when they rile against the democratic process and the free speech that we hold so important. It starts with slagging off and using derisory terms and moves on to hate speech and then death threats. What is wrong with these people?

They are the thin end of the wedge. Strange how our perceptions differ dependant on which side of the fence we inhabit. Although I can’t condone death threats or violence, I can understand why tempers are running high. I can fully understand the venom and hate. Soubry and those like her are attempting to overturn the democratic process; it is her and those who are doing likewise, whom I regard as the lowest of the low.

How short the memory of remainers remember the Farage death threats just after the vote?- whilst the treats of this sort etc are unacceptable they have come from both sides, not that you would know with the one sided reporting in most of the main stream press.

No problem with that. They are unacceptable full stop. The Farage death threats were widely reported at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whichever side of the argument people are on, I believe politicians have acted disgracefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
