[EU] Brexit negotiations at a standstill

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

I mean the difference they want it to make is not at home, they want obstructionist trolls in the European Parliament, they are not even hiding it.

Farage has been an obstructionist troll in the MEP for the last decade and has managed fuck all. Another half dozen MEPs won't make any difference whatsoever. All they'll achieve are a couple of soundbites for Farage's Breitbart show.

[Slant]

Now now .. we're talking about a people that has consistently said no to joining the EU ... They are wonderful people, but if not for oil revenues I'm not sure they would be happy bunnies about being EFTA members

It's funny how they feel more European than some people in a nation that is full member.

[dribbles]

You are aware that MEPs have no say in domestic policy, aren't you? And that the Brexit Party has taken most of its MEP votes away from UKIP.

It is rather remarkable, how you brexit people have gone from "THE UK HAS NO SAY IN THE PARLIAMENT, DEMOCRACY IS DEAD" to "Voting for UKIP MEPs will make a difference". Either you were lying before, or lying now. Which is it?

It isn't about that though is it. The remainers were the first to call the EU elections a re-run of the referendum. The Brexiteers weren't really interested at first but reluctantly said game on, and now we have what we have.

We see the remainers rowing back, crying and practicing their excuses for when they lose as a result. Diddums, we've heard it all before...

Sure. The problem in the UK is that many people are not too happy about their livelihoods, communities and struggle a whole lot for such a rich country. I can understand 50% is pissed off and wants to kick in the balls all the remote powers that don't seem to improve their lifestyle. The EU took the blame, yet again.
I guess the vast majority of norwegians don't worry as much about making ends meet, or their pensions, or healthcare so they get to be ore philosophical.

Please explain for once, how this election matters regarding Brexit?

cuz r3m04n3rs git pwnd.

Do trolls still speak like that these days?

Ask them, it was their idea. Here's one perspective from a lesser spotted remainer...

Britain will have its second referendum – at the EU elections on 23 May

They'll still be bad losers about it though afterwards. No surprises there.

So you can't explain it but are happy about UKIP or the Brexit Party winning seats? Why are you happy about that?

So you didn't read the article from the "horses mouth" so to speak? Of course I am happy with the Brexit party or UKIP winning seats, didn't you guess that I would be?

Seriously that post makes no sense. The second question after quoting my post doesn't just make no sense it's bordering insanity to ask "Of course I am happy ..., didn't you guess that I would be?" after I asked you "Why are you happy about that?".

Maybe it wasn't clear enough.

Let's try again. Why are you happy that UKIP or the Brexit Party gain seats?

So according to the poll you posted earlier less than a quarter want a Farage Brexit, a quarter want no brexit at all and the other 50% would prefer brexit but don't want a Farage brexit (some of whom would prefer to not leave if it meant a Farage brexit).

uhhhhh

That's really odd. Dribbles was so keen on linking poll results to us, but he missed this one. And didn't respond to you when you linked it. Possibly because it's pretty crap for his wonderful Brexit party, compared to the poll he did link?

On this basis, the Brexit party would get a lot fewer seats than UKIP managed in 2014. And the EU managed to survive that bunch of useless pricks. Another nail in the coffin, we might have to seal dribbles in with the corpse if this carries on.

This poll is, potentially, interesting if it is a true reflection of attitudes across the UK.

Hmm. Interesting indeed.

I support what the Brexit party stands for, why don't you?

And how many support remain? In percentage terms is it still in single figures?

Hahaha really? The only poll that counts is the one on the day. But if you truly believe that your vision is the future, and I doubt it, you can always put your money where your mouth is, I have...

But seriously for you I wouldn't, you'd lose too much money!

[Elegiac]

58%, if the current figure is to be believed.

Bollocks. Sample size 1000, probably residents in London. The only party clearly for remain is the Lib Dems. How are they doing in pre EU election polls?

Don't make me laugh....

Sample size of 1000 is enough for 1% degree of confidence. I understand that any poll that does not reflect your view of the world is bullshit to you though.

So we can say with 99% confidence it could be wrong? I'd say 99.9999999999999% it is lol Desperate times for you remainers.

And what were the odds on Remain the day before the referendum? Wasn't it something like 1-12? Sometimes the odds are wrong.

Anyway, I'm comfortable. Even if you get up to 30%, that still reflects that you don't have a mandate. And you never will. This EU election will send the message, and the 2nd referendum will follow it. After that Brexit will be officially off before you know it. Tick, tock.
