    I think remain would romp home as British people now have a lot more facts about the implications rather that nationalist propaganda.

    I think a lot of people would vote leave again, as a protest at being asked to vote again

    What does Julian from the UTV have to say about the Brexit?

    Haven't seen him since we lost the UTV from the cable.

    Pretty sure he is dead

    He voted Brexit and wants an open border...eh ok.

    Typical cakeist..

    Thinking they can vote for Brexit while keeping the benefits of EU membership.

    Democracy is wasted on people.

    I think Jim just lost the LGBT vote for the DUP.

    That was a depressing show.
    They're as polarised as ever up there. And we down south may end up paying the price.

    Last one of these joint programmes was 3 years ago. Can't wait for the next one in 3 years when Scotland has voted to leave the UK, NI is preparing for a vote to reunify with Ireland, and Wales and England are marking the creation of their new kingdom, Wangland.

    Jim left the dup almost two decades ago. He couldn’t swallow being in government with IRA/SF under any circumstances

    How has he done that? He's from the TUV.

    The deputy editor of the Belfast Telegraph was awful wishy washy . The FG senator made sh1te of him just by knowing his brief.

    And some of the older ppl who voted for it will have died. Lets leave it as long as possible.

    He isn't DUP, he is TUV (Traditional Unionist Voice) No difference in LGBT policy mind you.

    Jim's voters are middle-class, aging unionists. Becoming less relevant every day, thank frig.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,315 ✭✭✭emo72


    feck me that show was depressing. i have sympathy for anyone trying to deal with unionists. absolute dinosaurs.

    He's 68 now. He'll retire in a few years, I'd imagine. Still well able to hold his own though.

    I hadn’t realized there was any room to the right of the DUP.

    Apparently the Booze Cruises to Holyhead will be back if the UK leaves the Customs Union

    Which would be handy, seeing as the Minimum Alcolhol Pricing is coming in.
    Count me in!

    It's funny how he tried to throw a few economic shapes, as if the six counties has ever had anything resembling an economy of its own.

    You may end up paying more with increased tariffs and duty.

    May? I think it's a cert that we will and you can be sure that the vendors will take the opportunity to add a little bit more.

    That Stephen Nolan is really only fit for tabloid radio. He didn't complete one coherent question to the panel or audience and really was only there to stir it.
    OTOH that guy in the green tie in the Belfast studio( I can't think of his name) knew his stuff and was calm and easy to listen to.
