Bloody Iberian Neolithics coming over here, nicking our stone-moving jobs. They should go back to where they came from!

"So continuing that theme, do we have another general election a few months after that one, if Corbyn gets in, and we don't like him.
In other words we no longer accept a democratic result?"
You get one every few years? It's been two years since the referendum, that's not every few months, unless you have a special counting system.
Basically you are saying that we should vote in a government now, once, for the rest of our lives?

Nearly 3 years since the referendum.
(Advisory, not a super majority, law breaking and bending on both sides, but mainly by leave.)

We could really argue the point that the main remain campaign has never really been investigated by the Electoral Commission with the same enthusiasm they did with Leave, but seeing as some Remain campaigns have been fined as well then I can't honestly say there has been zero investigation.
The only problem with saying it's 3 years since the referendum is that it's never been implemented, pig's ear or not.

If that's true then he should be vilified for it, but I didn't even see the original footage in any form so it's all new to me...

That video was all about Wales at the start, and they say they wanted to leave the EU as it was full of foreigners. I have to laugh, as if you don't speak Welsh then you are treated as a foreigner, and even worse if you speak English.
I went into a pub there in the valleys, and could hear English been spoken, and the minute I asked for a pint, the locals all reverted to Welsh, with the locals staring at me, and sheep looking in the window, at me. It was a cold sweat moment.
I went out on the roads by car, and road signs were dual language welsh and english , but many with the engish writing sprayed over. If I did not have sat nav it would have been difficult to get around. Its been the only part of the UK I did not feel welcome.
Yep, Wales is full of foreigners, if you do not speak the language.
As for the moral in this video, Democracy is not guarenteed, have to agree with that, especially due to what we have seen with our MPs in the last years, and noticibly in recent months closer to the elusive deadline, trying to subvert the Brexit result.
Maybe England should Brexit from Wales...

I'd suggest we avoid pi**ing people off as it's in danger of just being England and Wales left of the UK.
