Norway is not in the EU. Look at the list of states in the EU, you will not find Norway on it.

And why do you characterise the ability to move freely taking jobs wherever you like as being madness? Surely a freer world is a better world.
Address what I said about how Norway is forced to obey the EU's political rules.

So if you are in favour of freedom as being a good thing, a better world, then you wouldn't mind if people/tramps just walked into your home at any time of day and kipped there for a couple months taking your food, using your bath and bed, and putting the heating on to suit themselves?

You are such a duplicitous, two faced git!!!

What chance of any sort of settlement in the Labour Party now violence has broken out between the factions. We've never seen anything like this in recent times.
I don't think either side wants a settlement each is fighting for the Labour brand.

So what - the referendum didn't ask about what rules we might or might not follow - it asked whether we should remain a member of the EU or leave the EU.

If we end up like Norway we will have left the EU, the mandate for leaving the EU will have been fulfilled.

Jeremy,

You know that expression,  "Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience."?

This is exactly the sort of situation it refers to.
"Let us think the unthinkable, let us do the undoable, let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all" - D Adams

Impressive piece of gerrymandering by the NEC to screw Corbyn.

That's what we have been telling you since this whole thing started. After we leave the EU we will still have to obey the rules unless we want to stop trading with them.

There clearly are limits on freedom, but being able to travel and work in a foreign country should not be one of them.

You're an stupid arsehole who seems to be happy with the destruction of the country that I love. You haven't got a fucking clue about what it is like to live in a diverse World of nation states that want to cooperate.

I hope you're happy with the unnecessary pain you've caused to lots of people.

Of course

How stupid are these people? Didn't it occur to any of them that, in a ballot of the party members, the result would be the same as last time?

Yeah they are stupid that is what it is, all they need to do is get in touch with Jeremy cos he's like awesome and shit. :)

Don't think its a done deal, even in the PLP there are some from the hard left that have conceded.

Owen Smith on Twitter "I asked @jeremycorbyn 3 times if he was prepared to see our party split & worse, wanted it to. He offered no answer. In the same meeting, in response to the same question @johnmcdonnellMP shrugged his shoulders and said 'if that's what it takes'."

Its going to split just a battle of who owns the brand.

John Macdonnel “They have been plotting and conniving,” Mr McDonnell can be heard saying in a video. “The only good thing about it is that, as plotters, they’re f***ing useless, "

Kinder politics my arse!

No it would not because this is not what the people on the streets asked for and talked about, nor what they were offered in control of immigration by a points system, not paying into the EU or being subject to its political rules.

And I've explained why that isn't the case.

You do talk a load of crap. Who said anything about not cooperating? What destruction?

As for pain caused, you address that comment to the EU on how they have treated Greece.

Wrong JK.  You've tried to explain, but managed not to explain.  This is possibly because you aren't taking the experiences of other European countries who are in the same position we find ourselves moving towards, into account.

What so all 17  million leavers interpreted the EU referendum in exactly the same way as you? Talked to them all did you?

How very convenient for your particular mindset.

How do you know? All we know is that a slim majority of people who voted wanted to leave the EU. We don't know what their vision for the future is.

Nobody has offered anything yet. Maybe your friend and euro-leech Nigel Farage said something, but he is not in power, in fact he ran away.

It is the case. A trade deal involves both sides abiding by certain rules. Do you not want us to do a trade deal with the EU?

What's that got to do with anything? Seriously. What makes you think that is analogous to free movement of labour. Nobody is asking you to have immigrants in your house.

The EU is not responsible for the pain that you have caused and will cause by your stupid vote for Little England.

I'm talking about political rules and policy not trading rules.

But we can't unilaterally declare the rules; they have to be agreed by both sides - hence they are both political and trading rules.

They never talked about EEA, as many of the dumbasses wouldn't even know what that was, but they all knew about and heard about the immigration and control issues. It may not have been top of their list but they at least had heard this. All the points you lot are mentioning like EEA, soft Brexit and so on they never knew about - leave meant leave to them. And this is what the people asked for.

I'm sorry - EEA - i.e. Norway as an example of a post Brexit settlement was mentioned extensively during the campaign. Sure it was only one of various possible settlements mentioned but to try to suggest no-one ever mentioned it as a potential post-brexit option is non-sense.

And you keep banging on about migration - while I accept it was a major theme of the non official UKIP leave.eu campaign it wasn't the major message from the official vote.leave campaign. Their clearly defining message (a lie, but defining nonetheless) was that leaving the EU would mean £350m extra for the NHS.

It is analogous because this is my country and no foreigner should be allowed to just walk in here and use the facilities free of charge.

That wasn't your argument before, but that anything that causes pain and is detrimental to people should be avoided and not imposed on them. This is what the EU did to Greece. As you support the EU this makes you two faced!!!

We trade with the US, what political rules do they impose on us say with our benefit system, or gun laws, or pollution levels or carbon/climate change policy?
