Because I have a different opinion from the norm? I haven't mentioned any sort of conspiracy crap at all in this thread if you would care to look. It's everyone else that likes to repeatedly bring up things I've said weeks or months ago. People are talking about me having a wind up when this is a discussion about signing a petition to overturn a democratic vote made by the British public
Don't forget how just a week ago he was having a go at Jo's family members for not meeting his standards of grieving.
I'd only just managed to suppress that memory. Proper horrible poster.
I said NASA use CGI, which they do. No conspiracy there.
How many of these 2.4m would have signed this petition would have done so irrespective of the result?

Unfortunately I suspect MP's will be more focused on electing new leaders (and what that means for themselves) rather than this petition
Perhaps instead of taking a shit in the desk at the end of his last day he will pull the pin on this grenade chuck it up in the air and say "catch Boris"
Yeah I know. I was quoting Farage, in anycase Cameron quit as soon as he could.
.. if we vote to remain in the EU....
If you remove all of the countrys votes outside of the UK (so just UK + Gibraltar) you get:
What's their angle?North Korea: 24,868 votes is the second highest country to vote in the petition...
Big fans of online petitions.
There is no legality with the referendum. It's essentially an opinion survey.
That is true
Which if ignored could amount to political suicide.
Of course, but it doesn't change that there's no legality with it.
No not necessarily... Following through is much more likely to amount to political suicide. I wonder who it's going to be?
That's already happened, something has got to be done to stop this small minded nonsense. The so called United Kingdom has become the Divided Kingdom.
I'm pretty confident in my belief that the racists/idiots who didn't even know how this would affect us swung the decision in the favour of leave. I'm not saying that all 17 million are racists/idiots but I'm saying if you removed the racists/idiots votes, I'm sure remain would have won - by a long way.
There will always be some that are going to take the piss, but its not hard to match up names with postcodes on the petition with those on the electoral role. The number would still be in the millions.
What if you removed all of the naive persons who voted Remain out of some misty-eyed vision of the EU, as opposed to the reality? Or the Remain voters who didn't actually read any of the economic data put out by the Treasury (among others), and simply took them at their word?
My grandmother voted Remain because she likes the Eurovision song contest.
Better reasoning than voting Leave because you don't want immigrants from Africa.
I pretty sure there was a larger naive crowd in the Leave camp then the Remain. Not sure about economic data but I'm pretty sure the Remain voters would have looked on more credible sources then the Daily Mail, the Sun, Facebook and Twitter.
Bang on mate. I find it utterly insulting that some (not all of course) people in the Remain camp have accused everyone that voted out of being racist or thick....or both. I personally didn't listen to much of what Farage said during the campaign as I knew he'd sensationalise and scaremonger but there was sensationalism and scaremongering from the Remain campaign too, not to mention an outright threat from George Osbourne to call an emergency budget with the possibility of slapping an extra 2p on income tax in the wake of a Leave vote.
