[Nakena]

If anything there should be more referendums. Direct democracy ftw.

Hope you're wearing power armour right now, gonna be a lot of fallout.

To be fair it is now parliament that destroys itself.

Now we see the pitfalls of a rotten and self destructive parliarmentarism live on TV.

This is like a full-blown self-destruction sequence of Democracy.

I think I'm beginning to understand why totalitarianism (in all its flavors) is becoming distressingly popular.

Maybe so. If so, liberalism'll go out in a blaze of glory.

You should know that the 2016 Brexit referendum will probably ad infintium be used as argument why the plebs shouldn be able to vote anymore in referendum.

Specifically that this argument is currently mostly being coming from the liberals on the continent.

Must be some pretty illiberal liberals.

Now the End Times are upon us.

[Ifreann]

We should just stop having fucking referendums. Bollocks to Brexit, the whole process has been an expensive exercise in stupidity.

If anything there should be more referendums. Direct democracy ftw.

Britain should stop having referenda until they pass some kind of Referendum Act to set out rules for their scope and how binding they are and when they can be called and if and when the results can be overturned.

Current and worst year.

I am not even making this up. Thats the position of many people who consider themself liberal and enlightened.

But it didn had to end like this.

To quit or not to quit the EU.

Theres no middle ground.

Perpetual Brexit for years to come.

[Pinch Me]

Presumably against a second referendum, or any other referendums that ever have been or ever will be on anything ever.

Alright ill stop now

A bit late for that, given how the whole ignominious Brexit shitshow has been going on since annus horribilis 2016.

I'd kind of like to see some data for this.

[Thermodolia]

The other parties in the proposed government aren’t pro-Brexit and Labour will never ever join with Brexit party or the Tories.

If a closed list PR system happened Brexit would be toast


There would be no delay due to the fact that under a PR system the members of a party can be sacked for not towing the party line which is no Brexit.

As is evident from France and Germany where all parties are united and internal conflict is rare...

Wait what?

Neither France nor Germany have Closed list PR. Italy has that voting system

[Thermodolia]

Restart Britain and try again.

Step 1: Grant Scotland and Northern Ireland independence
Step 2: Get invaded by Norway and France at the same time to reenact 1066 in 2019
Step 3: ???
Step 4: TOTAL RESTORATION OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE

I’m fine with just stopping at step 2

In order to make step 2 a reality, first a whole lot of other steps need to be taken in order to create the French-Norwegian Alliance.

In order to ruin Britain, you must first invent the universe.

To quote Douglas Adams: In the beginning the Universe was created.This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

The use of the words "shitshow" and "annus horriblis" paints an interesting yet accurate picture; politicians still seemingly unable to decide whether to shit or get off the pot.
