That's rich coming from you since you keep pretending threads like this never happened.
London will lose €800bn to Frankfurt due to Brexit
Under Article 27 of the EU charter, permission must be sought from Boilrig before any adjustments to membership can be made.
Referendum 2: Electric Boogaloo
Here's a top idea though, how about giving all the people who stand to lose their EU Citizenship and associated rights a chance to vote "Remain" unlike the last time (Me Included)
I'd like to have a say in losing my EU Citizenship thanks and not have it be dictated to me by a bunch of "fuck you, got mine" twats.
If this ruling gets utilised we better put Boilrig on suicide watch.
I mean, you have bought the metaphorical gun and the bullets, that cost quite a bit to not go through with it. Think of what people might say if britain only threatened to kill itself and pussied out.
on the other hand they get to go back to being the undeserved special child of the EU and if canceled Nigel Farage and all the other eurosceptics that left after brexit thinking job done will come barreling back to britain demanding the people reelect them.
Oh im sure some kiwi in a shack knows more than a group of justices.

But will they?
In my opinion, Theresa May will get the boot if she cancels Brexit. Some people will appreciate her choosing to do so, but you've lost any hope of maintaining "strong and stable" when you've been leading the country on a wild and, more importantly, blind goose chase for over two years, only to turn around and say "loljk". Part of the UK constitution dictates that the Prime Minister [and the rest of the executive] must have the confidence of the House of Commons to stay in power, and I highly doubt there'll be much confidence left in May after this mess is over.
So why not just "take a break" from the E.U. instead of leaving? Or just having a renewable membership.
Well England is the biggest player out there, wouldn't it be beneficial to have this kind of ruling?
What _Axel said
27 other countries. GB can't just start going "uhhhh we'll get back to you" or introducing weird quasi-states of membership. Norway's, for example, is agreed upon. They didn't just wake up one day, pick that type of membership and expect everyone else to fall in line.
On the whole, I think too many Leavers failed to realise that no matter the history of England/GB, it's gonna be impossible to balance everything in your favour when the game is literally 1v27. We're not the priority.
Boilrig actual fuck up you absolute proper bawbag every time you talk Brexit just remember if it happens it's going to absolute fuck things up for people you smug cunt.
It's pathetic how badly people are being had by leave arguments. As an American living under pro-corporate laws, and as an individual who's observant about these things, it's pretty obvious to me that the only Britons who benefit from leaving the EU are corporate wannabe slave drivers. Less worker protections means the "little guy" all the Leavers claim to care about would be crushed by opportunist companies.
I just hope we're prepared for it to be going down in history for the wrong reasons - For England deciding to drag the rest of the UK down with it in some bizarre nostalgia-wank over the Empire.
You know what, I feel you're entitled to your views, but I really do not see what you contribute to any Brexit discussion, or in fact most discussions, you partake in. You just wade in like a toddler waddling with shit-filled underpants, yell your opinion very loudly and do the absolute
damnedest not to involve yourself in any sort of meaningful discussion whatsoever. All you do is yell your opinion over and over, hoping that, like this is an instalment of The Voice, you hitting a high enough note will somehow equate to success. I honestly have to wonder what your game is beyond just inciting pure chaos in every thread you post in, because all you ever manage to do is pants yourself, day after day, by spouting complete gibberish and affirming it as fact.
At this point, UK has to make a referendum with 2 questions.
Do you want for the United Kingdom to remain or leave the EU.
Remain
Leave
If the United Kingdom leaves the EU, do you want to do on May Deal terms or No Deal terms?
May Deal
No Deal
After that the British parliament will have to go with how the votes goes, no matter the outcome. This political circus simply has to end and I think this is the best solution.
oh god I didn’t make any smurfy memes for UK politics, forgive me smurfy
Legally speaking, there's immediately an issue. Are you suggesting this hypothetical second referendum to be anything more than advisory? If not, you have the potential to enter the familiar cycle of endless, groundless, and ultimately pointless debate and deliberation.
Legally speaking, it should remain advisory. Just in practice it should be considered as if it was, otherwise if UK parliament refuses to enact 2nd referendum will then... I don't know, what the fuck then? It's already ridiculous.
UK and EU need solution on this, even if it's a bad one.
Yeah, exactly. Regardless on an individual's stance on Brexit, to have the 1st referendum be advisory and then suggest the 2nd referendum be binding, people would rightfully have a hissy fit and call bullshit. But then we return to the issue of 'if it's advisory, it can be ignored', so let's presume we get another 52-48 result, this time in favour of Remain, I can see Team Brexit piping up and saying the cabinet has the legal right to completely ignore it.
There's also another issue: May formed her entire cabinet around having a weighted balance of Remainers and Brexiteers in her cabinet. Sure, loads of them have resigned, but it might be a conflict of interest if her remaining scraps of executive have to then delegate to remain in the European Union. "So just reshuffle the cabinet again", one might say, but then that's more time being wasted as Theresa desperately searches for people that still support her. More importantly, would people even want to be in a cabinet that's led by a woman that barely spoke during the initial referendum campaign, is now saying Brexit is not economic disaster, and is then expected, due to the result of a second referendum, to be super pro-Remain? Possibly not.
Hot take: Boilrig is a racist nationalist who hopes that if Brexit goes through it'll lend some legitimacy to the xenophobic bullshit he wants to happen in his own country. Same thing with border control in the US.
Nationalists are authoritarians who bank on getting into power once and then doing everything they can to keep it even if they're caught in their fraud or fall out of favor when their idiotic policies inevitably backfire. That's why he doesn't want a second referendum, this is the kind of thing people like him use to seize control and a functional democracy is inconvenient to that.
The impotent economic arguments are just a smokescreen so he can keep stirring the pot without tipping his hand and getting called out for something much worse. It's why he never cares about putting up a good argument or sticking around to see his ramblings dismantled because it's not his real argument. It's just a farce to derail conversations about the clearest modern example of why nationalism is so goddamned retarded.
Well next time Brexiters should make a plan on how to leave EU, instead of committing to this shitshow.
I don't even care at this point will or will not UK leave the EU, I just want for this criminal incompetence to end.
I don't think many Brexiteers expected to 'win' the referendum, so to speak, so they woke up and went, "Oh". Not to invalidate any citizen that still supports Brexit, but it doesn't help that most of the Brexiteer politicians are pretty shit.
