Re: Not Voting Tory until We're out!

I blame Cameron too. I'd say May is doing a sterling job of keeping Corby out. You should be grateful. We should never have been put in such a position. Did I mention I blame Cameron?

It seems that the Remainer majority, in her group, have brought this about.

Brexiteers, such as myself, should look at this anti democratic proposal and decide how best to continue.

I, myself, now pledge not to vote Conservative, in Elections, or otherwise, until we are out!

If there enough Brexiteers, willing to take the same step, then Democracy may still be restored.

It might mean that Socialists would win the next election, but I doubt that will happen.

I have said the same several times before now, but just for the record

I, too, hereby pledge not to vote Conservative in elections or otherwise until we are completely out of the EU.

Unless there is an alternative party worth voting for (UKIP?) I see no point in voting at all, and if that results in Compo and the Clowns getting into government, so be it. It makes little difference if we are to remain under the governance of the EU.

I, too, may also write to my MP nearer the time.

Re: Not Voting Tory until We're out!

Hi

Corbyn is a Marxist, with well documented links to terrorists.

I am a Socialist, an entirely different animal to Corbyn and Co.

I loathe and detest Terrorists, I have no time for them at all.

I suffer from severe PTSD, currently being treated.

I would urge you all to do everything you can to keep Corbyn out of power.

Not far off the mark fender.

My time at the top, years ago, did not last long.

The French came armed with a list of demands, so arrogant.

My response was sod off, this is not going to happen.

I always put our Interests first.

I was sacked, well transferred, a great relief.

Never to deal with the French again, or anybody else for that matter.

I always put the UK first, I don't do Political Fudges.

I did keep my Pensions however.

I agree but nobody in the party seems to be strong enough to knock him off his perch.

Well said, JBR!

If enough people threaten not to vote, at any coming election, then TM would have to take urgent steps to fix the problem before that election.Otherwise they could be out, and out for a very long time.

I'm not worried, much, about who will be elected instead because I don't see it getting there but, if we don't take some sort of stand, they'll keep prevaricating and obfuscating for ever!

In other words, if they solidify the out date, to be before the next election,.they might probably get back in.

If enough voters let their MPs know, well in advance of the next election, that their plan is not to vote for them, maybe they would come to their senses.

I'll be writing to mine tonight.
And my MP has just resigned from his Minister post!

Oh the power of letters!

Good. If everyone whose local MP, if a known remainiac, wrote to him/her to point out that they will not be voting for him/her, it might just have a similar effect.

There will still be some such MPs, though, who will brass it out in the hope that voters have short memories.
