I won't be bothered unless I'm walking the dog past the polling station. And I let the dog decide where he wants to go

Mind you, I'd  do it if I was guaranteed some financial benefits. 

All I'd have to do is moan about meat eaters, and pocket the dosh.

That is Theresa mays fault for not completing brexit.

You should vote on policies, not on tradition.

Idiot.

All these parties laying out what they are about. Remind me someone, did we or did we not have a referendum a year or two back, where it was decided, and backed by all the parties, to leave the EU ?
How dishonorable to just ignore the majority of voters in such a way.

What's dishonourable, Glos, are the lies, half-truths and misrepresentations that we were fed.......and we were expected to cast a meaningful vote on that basis! It was not possible to vote with any accuracy or certainty. (Thanks Dave et al !!)

The complete omission of any mention of Ireland's particular problem is, on its own, enough reason to hold a new ballot. May gets several goes at getting it right but the public only gets one, nearly 3 years later??! Be serious!

And the stark realisation about the threat posed by climate change should be at the top of the agenda when considering manifestos and a final vote. It is a scandal that it has taken youngsters and a 93 year-old to bring the truth to our attention.
The future of the world and its inhabitants is at stake, way more important that political posturing.

If its wrong, then we know where it went wrong and it can be fixed. We now have ourselves in a situation where we are trying to fix Brexit before it has been resolved according to the referendum. The process has been meddled with almost to the point that nothing can be resolved, .... other than follow the referendum as originally offered, and we leave without all the tinkering that so many seem to think is their right. (I'm referring to the MP's, not XM  )

It is pretty clear most people, and certainly most MPs, think May's deal is a bad deal so logically we should revisit the decision to leave the EU.
