democracy is now officially dead

I already voted on this matter some months ago.

I don't think you know what 'democracy' means, janetta. In a democracy people have the right to oppose and to voice their opposition in any legal way they wish. Democracy is dead if this right is taken away.

Signed; this madness has to be stopped. Food shortages; medicine shortages; stockpiling; food prices set to rise; jobs will go.....what the hell is going on in this country....

Turkeys voting for Christmas?

Sorry. I misled with the figure above - it was just over 31.000 signatures last time I looked, but rising.

Very interesting map showing numbers of signatories per constituency. High numbers in Cambridgeshire.

I think a problem is there are so many of these petitions floating around. It's very difficult to get publicity for and big numbers behind any one of them.

BlueBelle Wed 13-Feb-19 05:36:53

Keep signing

We just have to keep trying, don’t we? We have to do anything and everything we can to stop the madness.

ayse Wed 13-Feb-19 08:17:06

I agree. Seems to me that T May is playing chicken and will take it to the line. I’m fearful of falling off the cliff. The state of the economy is already precarious with public services suffering for lack of investment and the poorest finding so difficult.
