It’s 2025 so please can people stop saying the following -
- Brexit was the ‘will of the people’ (it was the will of 52% of those who voted in 2016).
- what about misandry? (In convos about misogyny)
- U.K. shouldn’t do anything about climate change until China does.
Bore off back to 2017.

My safeword is rejoin
From 1709 (when Abraham Darby first used coal in his furnaces in Shropshire), the UK was the top emitter of CO2 until it was overtaken by the USA in 1888. USA stayed top from 1888 until it was overtaken by China in 2007.
Renewables are just a means to avoid burning fossil fuels. Not using energy is just as good.
So you're mistaken
As of January 2025, 55 percent of people in Great Britain thought that it was wrong to leave the European Union, compared with 30 percent who thought it was the right decision.
30 million in the General Election
Signed...the EU
Those who deploy the ‘until China’ argument about measures to minimise climate breakdown are often exponents of ‘world-beating Britain’. So how about we lead the way on green initiatives?

Whomever England votes for is imposed on the rest of the UK.
Westminster=constant advert for Scottish Independencee
I've read that China starts 2 new coal power plants a week. We have airlines flying empty planes so they don't lose landing...
Westminster loves to say how much it's done/doing in..
As a Scot, it's just another reason to hate Westminster. They're quick to criticise things that are not their concern & take credit for things that are nothing to do with
Thankfully, this Labour government is a daily advert for Scottish Independence.
Like with brexit, yes voters, the no voters on Independence have been dying off. They won't give us a referendum because they know we'll leave.
Scotland isn't a colony with individual Scottish voters having as much say as individual English ones ( group minds are sci-fi).
The Union led to Scots taking a lead in many areas.
People only voted Brexit because Westminster cut money here in the northeast and redirected it down south.
We pay in far more than comes back
But Westminster is, as far as most Scots & N.Irish are concerned, England's government.
I'm far from alone in wanting independence, and they know support for it is growing.
Next, PMQs watch them take pot shots at the...
I do get where you're coming from Westminster rules to benefit London & where they've centralised wealth in the country...
Scotlands gone left & is pretty progressive. England's gone right.
I'm a gay woman and my wife...
They UK has lost hundreds of billions in tax & direct investment as a result of Brexit.
That information was available before the vote.
We should and don't have to.
We can take our independence
England voted for Brexit because of prejudice towards anyone who isn't English & white.
I have no doubt some were taken in by the lies of Farage. But that's on them to educate themselves.
It's not like the info proving every word out of his mouth was...
Ok we don’t talk about brexit lol but the rest of it, yup.
Rejoining EU would be so expensive, financially not just politically, it would definitely Bankrupt UK. So, I'm afraid "Computer says: Nooooo!"
That's Definite: NOT!
And non rejoiners in last years
Seems like it's the EU fanboys who don't know anything
73% of the electorate voted to not rejoin the EU only last year so we seem quite chilled out about it ...no matter what it seems like sometimes in here
But it totally negates your point
Johnson has said he had no plan,but thought Cameron 'would have something'.
Without a plan it had no form,it could be whatever you believed it needed to be.
Isn't it time to either define what 'Brexit' actually means or let it go!
Maybe the people who didn't vote can explain why they didn't and if they did vote in other elections afterwards.
Of course being wrong is hard, doubling down is easier than admitting being tricked for those who were really sucked in.
Sick to death of hearing those who voted for brexit banging on about 'remainers.'
All we hear is you boorish wankers moaning.
You bought the suit sewn from shit. Now wear it.
Give us another referendum and let's see if the majority really want to continue you down this shit road that is called #Brexit.
a MIL who voted for the fishermen and the eejits who believed it would save the nhs
and no this is not news items these are eejits i knew personally
It was also a failed policy! we were lied to as a people. The money Never came! All we got was our sovereignty back which we already kind of had because it was a business union not a ruling union. 2/5 would not recommend
Next one will be in 2029 ...if you want change then you will have to vote for it
Good luck 👍
Thank’s, that still annoys me as well. I did some maths a while ago.
Remain 35.0%
Leave 37.5%
No Vote 27.5%
72.5% of the UK voted and so 72.5% of the Leave vote shows percent of all Brits who wanted out
So only 27.18% of the UK voted to leave.
It was no mandate and a bit of common sense and people would have realised ‘Leave’ were lying and it would be insane to be alone in Europe and create huge trading barriers.
Now we are screwed for a generation
You need to shut up and stop trying to dictate what people can say, you infinitely sad and tedious wannabe fascist.
That's also the will of the people.
Enjoying being told how to think is a common trait of EU drones I find.
We must seek our own solutions either by making our Leaders work for us or by replacing them with someone who will.
That's how Democracy is meant to work, but it needs action from each/every Citizen to work !
