redneckdevil Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Of course the currency is going to go down for a bit, they are leaving a huge "company". The unknown always lowers value but doesn't mean they can't rise from this like they have before (aka 1984). Also isn't the pound to usd STILL higher than an euro to usd?

majestic Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Also isn't the pound to usd STILL higher than an euro to usd? Might be, but the Euro is being kept as low as possible by our dear Führer Kanzlerin Merkel to help along German exports. No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

Wrath of Dagon Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) It's been going on in US for decades. Whenever left loses in voting they just run to the courts and get their way anyway.

BruceVC Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 The decision by the high court does have some legitimacy. One of the core objectives of people who support Brexit is to return power to the UK parliament. Therefore surly the decision to trigger article 50 needs to be a made by the UK parliament? Article 50 states " Any member state may decide to withdraw from the union in accordance with its own constitutional requirements.” This link discusses this https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/jun/25/article-50-brexit-debate-britain-eu So now in the UK you could definitely make the case " the UK parliament needs to agree on Article 50, its not just up to the UK PM" Its an interesting development and this may need a new vote in the UK to see if Theresa May has a mandate or legal rights to initiate article 50 and leave the EU?

Raithe Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I'm somewhat fuzzy on this I'll admit, but I half recall that there needed to be a parliamentary motion for the referendum to happen. So in a sense, wouldn't that have been the act of parliament for the results of that referendum to be valid if they needed one to hold it? "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

So in a sense, wouldn't that have been the act of parliament for the results of that referendum to be valid if they needed one to hold it? Im also confused on some of the specifics but your point seems valid as a reason to argue " parliament has already agreed to this ". Are we sure there was this parliamentary motion that carried legal precedence in respects to what Article 50 states or rather my question could be " does a motion carry the same legitimacy as a vote in the UK parliament." I'll be honest I have no clue but I will be consulting people I know who do understand this And also surely the UK high court would have considered this as very important evidence in its final verdict? Because this would have fundamentally changed the ruling ?

Volourn Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Says the guy who wants people locked up for having 'unpopular' opinions or not going along with the SJW Nazi group. Real freedom is supporting the freedom of even people you disagree with vehemently. For example, if I had power, SJW Nazis would still be free to spout their nonsense. If you had power, I'd lose by job, locked up, and murdered. 1 DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you feel I represent the left? What do you mean by "that stuff is so popular?" I'm against abortion, btw. I'm also against marijuana. But I'm not going to make either illegal because it is not the government's place to do so. I'd rather see resources put towards education, so we have less unwanted pregnancies and dumb potheads running around. Also not sure where it says in the Constitution that my employer gets to dictate what type of health care I receive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That depends on your views. The right generally sees abortion as murdering babies. The left doesn't see babies as human until they are born so see it as a womens health thing. So the courts enforcing a woman's right to murder babies doesn't sound like something super cool. I'm pro choice, to a certain degree, but I can understand the other side.

Abortion is a womens choice, no one should have a right to tell any women what they can or cant do with there bodies Abortion is also a very traumatic and emotional experience to go through so its important to be supportive if you know anyone who had an abortion. It can be hard for many men but trust me the majority of women suffer emotionally much worse than most men 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.
