Of course people thought about asking No/Remain voters for their views. That process is known as holding an independence referendum. We won't know how those people want to resolve the incompatibility between their 2014 and 2016 votes until we ask them. It's YOU, Jack, who wants to decide for those people that they only meant their 2014 vote and were just joking when they said they wanted to remain in the EU.<br /><br />How do you sleep at night?James Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01516007141763230886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-47851178515331175012017-03-24T07:43:05.849+00:002017-03-24T07:43:05.849+00:00Admirable qualities, to be sure.

Did anyone ask unionist Remainers if it was OK to do this? Of course they didn't! Anyone with eyes in their head can see the Greens' opportunism is as bad as the SNP's. <br /><br />The logic may look 'watertight' to you, but the reality is that it's leaking like a sieve. Pinching people's votes to further a political agenda is to be expected by the SNP (who would use a volcano errupting in Outer Mongolia as an indyref2 trigger), but people expected more from the Greens, whose manifesto has been reduced to the sum-total of 'bog roll'.Jack Glendinninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379755192082846574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-53942919699193868222017-03-21T20:15:04.975+00:002017-03-21T20:15:04.975+00:00Mmm...goats and not sheep.

What is sauce for the goose, is sauce for the gander. Neither in word not spirit has the Tory's manifesto a reference to a Hard Brexit, which equally cannot be derived from the referendum. Indeed, on both accounts quite the opposite is true.
