BREXIT

[YamFazFan]

Our democracy is alive and well.

They'd be as ungracious in victory as they are in defeat. They would be rubbing Leaver's noses right in it.

[VNA]

If such a scenario does indeed arise.
It's not a matter of victory, simply a matter of saving our country from itself.
It is clear that at some point this nonsense has to be nipped in the bud.
At the end of the day it was and is about the Tory party.

This site is on the blink I reckon. That's another blank post just appeared (VNA 6:56:45pm). There's others in seperate threads. Logging in isn't straightforward anymore, unintended quotes appear in posts, paragraph gaps dissapear..........

Looks fine tae me.

I can see your pic in post #722 on a mobile phone, but on laptop it just appears as an edit message or a blank in this mode.
The quote text in your post #718 is too miniscule to read on both devices.
It must be just me. I give up :rolleyes .

Oh and talking of fruitcakes, loonies and closet racists;

Well has anybody seen Nigel recently?  I couldn’t believe it yesterday when I saw the short report on the BBC concerning his resignation from UKIP.  Apparently over some little prick called Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon being taken on by UKIP as an ‘advisor’.

You know when I saw that a week or so ago on Twitter, I actually thought it was piss taking or fake news or something.  I didn’t pay any attention to it.  Even I didn’t think UKIP was that extreme, or for that matter stupid.
 
So it’s now fruitcakes loonies and racists.  I think we can drop the closet bit. :lol

The article you quote goes on to say:
''[color=rgb(64, 64, 64)]So, does that mean that the Brexiteers are right?[/color][color=rgb(64, 64, 64)]Not according to many expert lawyers and academics. There are a number of reasons for this. Firstly, some EU regulations, like those governing tobacco and olive oil production, are agreed by all member states but don't actually affect us at all because we don't have those industries here.[/color]
[color=rgb(64, 64, 64)]We also adopt some EU regulations that simply codify existing UK law at a European level. In other words, we would have that law anyway. But perhaps the biggest way in which it is said the 62% is inflated is because it includes within it what are known as non-legislative EU regulations, which concern matters so small or routine that many people wouldn't really recognise them as law.''[/color]

Err - no. all you have done is back up exactly what I said, which was 

And there are laws and there are "laws"

  you backed me up with this bit

All of which means ( according to many expert lawyers and academics) that the Brixiteers have got it wrong and it's nowhere near 62%?

Laws and "laws" if you want to be pedantic about it to try and debunk figures then go ahead.
Lets word it differently for you.
62% of UK laws and non-legislative regulations come from the EU

62% of UK laws and non-legislative regulations come from the EU

Including those on Tobacco and Olive growing. The BBC examination is making the point that the 62% is totally misleading. They are the ones being pedantic. 62% is Leave's own version of 'Project Fraud'.

I still haven't got a clue as to the 'laws' you object to?
And how those 'laws' are impacting on your life.

This --- coming from someone who wants an independent scotlanl REALLY !  :rolleyes do you not see the irony.

If you claim to not understand then there is no point explaining it to you because you wouldn't understand that either.

[VNA]

Give us examples of the laws you object to.
