British Election: peaceful revolution

[Ja'chyra]

Rigged?

It won't need to be rigged, enough people (especially the Scots and Welsh) will vote to stay that it won't need to be "rigged" but the rest of the /EU will need to give ground or they risk something they couldn't possibly rig.



Turnout in the Referendum averaged about 85%, turnout in the election was closer to 65%.

It's obvious, really - people in England voted Tory because they want a tax cut and a new house, people in Scotland voted SNP because they went a rise in the minimum wage and better pensions. Enough Scots realise the SNP is running on English petrol to want the Union to stick together.

And what do you base these totally unsubstantiated statements on?

And what do you base these totally unsubstantiated statements on?

The figures for the referendum and the election? Or the belief that the majority of people will ultimately vote for the status quo, viz Europe?

Well, aside from using my brain I read the BBC webpage and the papers where the figures were reported, and as to the EU - people generally vote for status quo vs economic uncertainty.
