balderdash&piffle 720 Posted January 7, 2017 Scotland voted to be part of the British Isles and the 52% voted for brexit end of story , can't keep moving goalposts just because they don't like the result. No goalposts being move, 52% of those who voted voted Leave, but it only equates to 38% of voters available to vote. In speedway terms, your team gets a crowd of 1000, and your club has a perception of having a problem with the track. Your club decides to ballot the 1000 fans, 380 vote there is nothing wrong with track, 370 vote the track has problems and will no longer attend if something is not done, 250 did not vote and are so pissed off, they don't care, as they are not going any more. The result is a majority for those who voted, and the club must listen to this majority, how much of a chance does your club have in surviving.. My conclusion would be NOT MUCH, but hey ho ! it's a majority so they will have to put up with it 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Siggytastic 181 Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) So are you saying that the 25% (or whatever it is) that didn't vote, are leaving the country? Edited January 7, 2017 by Siggytastic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gazc 7,193 Posted January 7, 2017 I know we are bored at the moment but why Scotland voted to stay part of the UK which we did is a debate on the Panthers thread is strange. But Scotland is British and voted to stay British that should be the end of it well you would think so anyway. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
