Brexit IS ongoing ( since 2016). The "stamping" is continuing due to the non- finalized decision by those who decided to/or "were" allowed to vote. ("Everyone"??). I was not included. & so just for one, "everyone" was NOT included. 

(PS: I "brexited" UK well before brexit was even invented, & so had no democratic vote)

The ridiculous and utterly unnecessary UKCE mark is dead, long live CE.
No doubt the ERG zealots will be incandescent with rage but with luck it might trigger a few strokes and heart attacks.
Wonder how much money was squandered on the misbegotten and idiotic idea?

Absolutely outrageous response wishing that upon people

Maybe take a step back and look in your mirror.

Democracy in action. Have you a better plan?

["Democracy in action"]

["While I didn´t vote for it?"].

I did´nt (´cause I couldn´t) Quote:Thu 28 Apr 2016 10.47 BST  ["The high court has rejected an attempt to force the government to grant millions of UK citizens living abroad a vote"] link:

IE: Residents of the Crown Dependencies (which are not part of the United Kingdom), namely the Isle of Man and the Bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey, even if they were British citizens, were excluded from the referendum.

I too accept the outcome.

For clarity, The Irish Govt. Acted to do its best to protect Ireland and Northern Ireland from the worst effects of Brexit. As a result Northern Ireland can trade goods with both the UK ANd the EU.

Luckily, someone on the Island of Ireland was awake and acted honestly in the interest of the people.

Aye, they’re good at it aren’t they?

Like the 2 referendums they ran and didn’t get the result they wanted and keep running it until they got the result they required. You can be sure that the gombeens at the helm had their hands in the eurocratic pocket to do it.

At least Britain have the balls to abide by the decision of the people, even if some of us didn’t vote for it.

Or not even allowed to?

The difference I guess is that in Ireland,  the authorities got Independent experts Chaired by a Judge to explain the complexities and implications of the EU treaties  and agreements…. Independent of Politicians!

If the Irish Govt. Had not represented the interest of the people of NI the economy would now be like that of GB, swirling downwards.

Thankfully, it is doing quite nicely because of the increased trade with Ireland and the EU and thousands of people driving up and down to Dublin daily for employment with approx double the wages/salary available in NI.

Ireland, believe it or not, has thankfully, a history of co operation, compromise and friendship and a highly sought after passport!

Others choose to build empires at the point of a gun and become surprised and disgusted at the consequences and the ultimate failures, leaving a trail of destruction when they are eventually kicked out.

The political group in NI who supported Brexit did so on the misguided notion that it would prevent or delay the inevitable reunification of Ireland. 

Todays Headline

1billion Euro budget  for cross border development. Nice freebie for NI. Surprise surprise the dup boys did not attend the discussions!

End!  Enough said!
