I've noticed that 'Federal' seems to be a common theme recently, and I don't understand why that is the case, at this point in the proceedings. Also, it only seems to be in this forum, no where else does this seem to be a 'thing'.Golden Princess wrote: 06 Nov 2018, 16:57
But I have noticed just recently the words "federalist" and "Federal" have started to appear in this thread. I should be grateful if anyone could explain this to me. TIA
I don't think all this talk about 'federalism' is relevant to the situation we are in at the moment. As Leavers like to remind everybody, we are leaving on 29/3/19, so it doesn't matter what they may or may not be planning, as we will no longer be members and have no say in how they run things.
(it may matter as, in a 'deal' situation, we'll likely to be subject to their regulations for many years to come, but as I say, we won't be able to do anything about it. But this is not the point that the ones fearful of Federalism are making)
I can only speculate why, as a group, this matter seems so important to Brexit forum members.
My best guess is that they are
a) still trying to justify their vote. (there's no need for this, we are beyond that stage now.)
b) Trying to get Remainers round to their way of thinking. (we are also beyond that stage, as views are entrenched)
c) using this as a displacement activity, to try and not think about the UK being in a crisis situation)
