Arsenal till I die Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Isn't a claim different to willingness to accept, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Down Hibee Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Nobody with any sense will want this to happen for a long long time......so chances are there will be a poll next spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However can you imagine the seethe if the Tories tried to pull a U turn? For that reason and their electoral chances in the future, there's no chance they'll say to the voters 'sorry but.....'

Yeah as much as disagree with the result I think they are morally obliged. One interesting twist will be if the legal challenge goes ahead and is successful which obliges Parliament to vote on triggering Article 50.

Here she is 2 days before the referendum... When she was home secretary, Mrs May warned it was "inconceivable" that border arrangements with the Republic of Ireland would be unchanged by a Brexit vote.

Won't happen anytime soon Scotland will be first to go Where do you get your figures? A quick google search had Northern Ireland's unemployment at 5.9% which is less than Scotland's and the public sector at 30.8% (granted that was 2008 figures but I can't see it more than doubling in 8 years) The sectarian pish, I'll agree with.

Glenconner Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 An idea for Northern Ireland to remain self governing within the island of Ireland. Not exactly a new idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Think the 70% is the share of economic activity that is based on public sector spending. Sure I've seen a number of 83% for East Ayrshire on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about them setting the agenda and not just reporting what they are being told. Also asking certain questions they know will give the answers they want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
