It's funny to see how UK is falling so hard after voting in favour of BREXIT. Why doesn't Farage lead the country ?

I know Britain will be greatly affected by the BREXIT. The EU country will promulgate laws that will not favour Britain's exit as a former EU member. Let's see how it goes......

She is very arrogant and i hope this wont be her downfall,she want to conduct snap election just to get ride of brexit opposition in the house
How can you believe your party will win the majority.This must be the gamble of the century and will probably lead to the colapse of the UNITED KINGDOM

Good.

Elections, Referendum, Plebiscite - these are roads countries led by civilized people take to. The Brits shall always lead by example in modern democracy.

Human beings are not animals.
We are even lucky in Nigeria that the northern Nigeria soldiers who supervised Nigeria's present constitution allowed us elections to choose our president.

In the wake of BREXIT, BIAFREXIT is a necessity.

to the many idiots above me that refuse to learn from anything


1.uk population is 65.4m i mean look at that......we can see how those who ignore family planning (majorly rural areas) and that religion that suports mass polygamy but painfully the polygamy is more among the poor illiterates of the religion


we can see how the population of Nigeria is a problem ...n see why the "northern elites" keep using that card to their benefit using religion as a brain washing tool





2.. today is april 18 election is planned to hold june 8 ..that's 51 days to plain an election


but here inec will use 4 years n still end up at inconclusive results or no voting materials


n some delusional"optimist" will say Nigeria is getting better
