Sore Losers

Remainders are now petitioning HMG for a rerun, but they want different rules.

Almost 65,000 people have already backed the online campaign calling for a re-run of the contest after the historic victory for Leave.

They are calling for a change to the rules based on the tightness of the result, which saw Leave triumph with just under 52 per cent of the vote.

Words fail me. They were happy enough with the rules when they thought they would secure a small margin to remain. They really are a bunch of nasty, despicable arseholes.

As is usual, these petitions are simply a vehicle for petty little scumbags to try to force their will on others – little wannabe dictators. So, William Oliver Healey, you can take your nasty little petition and stick it where the sun don’t shine. We had the vote and your side lost. Tough.  Get over it and grow the fuck up.

  1. Like the Government now wouldn’t have anything better to do than give valuable time to the snivelling of 100k little foot-stampers!

  2. Nicola Sturgeon has just announced she will give the Scots another independence vote so that Scotland can stay in the EU.

    Wonder what will happen if the Dutch, French and Germans decide enough is enough and decide no more European Union? As they have been making noises about. What will Ms Sturgeon do then, poor thing?

    • Wee Nippy can bump her gums and stamp her feet all she wants but she needs to realise that she can’t just hold another referendum – she has to be granted that right.

      The whole economic basis for an independent Scotland was based on the oil prices and Scotland becoming like Norway. That was Salmonds Utopian dream and the what the SNP used to strengthen their claims that we’d be better off out.

      Strugeon can strut about and claim what she wants on national tv, but for her to take Scotland into independence would be career suicide for her. She has absolutely no way in which she can prove we have the finances to stand alone.

      For one, the oil is fucked. Beyond fucked. She can’t even mention oil revenue that let alone use it as an argument in any manifesto. Jesus, the price per barrel was high when Salmond was bleating on about it and yet even at those prices, it was proven that Scotland couldn’t survive on them alone. Then there was the mention of oil tax. Aye, very good – just watch as it’s brought ashore elsewhere with lower taxes.

      Then we have the flow of money from South to North. The national parties in Westminster previously stated their intention that the flow of English money to Edinburgh would stop on the day Scotland became independent. So no income from there then.

      At present, the UK pumps 55 million daily into the EU which equates to 33 million when you factor in the returns. How much Scotland would have to pay has of yet not been decided, but you can be assured that we’d never manage to meet the payments. The amounts required are stipulated after you join, not before. You go in blindly and the levels required are nonnegotiable as Greece found out to their detriment. They argued the required payments could never be met – tuff shit.

      From being an important partner within the United Kingdom Scotland would become an unimportant single EU Region standing alone among 270 others all clambering for largesse and special treatment – which we wouldn’t get.

      I may be totally wrong here (and not for the first time) but I can’t see Sturgeon being the one going down in history as the one who made us a bankrupt backwater.

  3. If HM Gov’t tried a re-run then I would expect (and hope) that sufficient of us would invoke the spirit of 1642.

      • No. She is reputed to be pro-Britain and anti-EU – and has never proposed a state tyranny. I have little objection to meting out the same treatment to those who do advocate state tyranny, though.

          • In that case, we could always show that we can still have some European sympathies by erecting Dr Guillotin’s ingenious little device – in Parliament Square, in the Tower, and/or outside most Town Halls/Civic Centres.

            And using it.

  4. If Sturgeon attempted a referendum the Scottish courts would strike it down, the law applies to politicians too.
    Similarly if Sturgeon wants to do the rounds of Euro leaders she had better do it with her own money as she doesn’t have delegated foreign policy powers.
    Something missing in today’s analysis is that some Scots voted ‘remain’ because they thought that would lessen the chance of sturgeon strutting her stuff.

  5. E&W should leave the UK, which means they leave the EU automatically. Scotland and NI will stay in the UK and stay in the EU. Then they can merge with ROI (if they want to).

  6. A colleague of mine (and, incidentally, a firm, committed remainer) commented to me that the vitriol he’s seen so far being spouted by angry remainers on social media is really nasty stuff. So nasty, in fact that his comment was: “I seriously didn’t realise what bad company I was in by voting to remain. If I’d have known that, I might have switched sides just so as not to be associated with them!”

  7. It is up to two million now. Two million pathetic losers. That is the thing about lefties, they are all in favour of democracy when they are winning. When their fellow countrymen reject their plans for a socialist utopia they suddenly think that the vote needs re-doing while being rigged in their favour. All for our own good of course.

  8. The Indy’s now found “countless” (actually 100 so far) ex pats who’re whingeing that they didn’t get their postal votes in time and of course would have voted to remain.

    • My (also tiny) sample shows 100% who didn’t get their voting papers in time would have voted leave. Those of us better prepared, got our votes in time…
