So we are currently one for one, I think best of 3 would best in this situation. I donβt read the guardian either, just using a source to prove a point. Something you seem unwilling, or (more likely) able to do. (LA LA LA) π No we didn't. 2 hours ago, owain said: So that was a vote to join then. Thank you for confirming that for me.Β No it wasn't.

But you have now directly called me pathetic? Name calling is bad ππ A statement saying I have not been affected. Which Is true. That does not mean I have a typical Brexit iq as you stated.Β I can't help that you bring up people's iq for having the opinion leaving a corrupt unelected block of countries was the right decision.

I think it's pretty clear he means we had a vote to join a common market with other nations with similar economies. We were never asked if we'd like to join what the EU currently is today, but I think your well aware of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, and we should've had a referendum on both Maastricht and Lisbon treaties, as they handed over large amounts of control to the EU. But to the OP's point, so what? Rejoining the EU will involve no rebate, adaption of the Euro, Schengen, and likely no more national veto by the time we rejoin.Β I wonder how hard Keir will really try to sell that.
