What the EU Parliament Does, and How EU Elections Work: https://youtu.be/xw14r-qScA4

Last week people across the EU went to the polling station to cast the votes for a new bunch of MEPs. The results of these elections could have serious ramifications for Brexit and the EU as a whole. The success of the Brexit Party may push the Conservatives to a more ‘hard Brexit’ stance. The Liberal Democrats good results might encourage Labour to come up with a more defined, clear position on Brexit.

    TLDR, the Libdems gained 5 from the Conservatives due to anti-Brexit conservatives, not because the general public agree with their message. And I used to be a Libdem supporter.

    You've downplayed the Brexit party's clear message and tried to sugar coat the Libdems success.

    Nigel Fromage has all the charisma and charming personality of Pauline Calf. 🤦‍♂️

    Everytime he opens his mouth, it makes me cringe. He's such a boring, bigoted, self obsessed, wind-up merchant for the EU.

    He should maybe stick to what he is good at which is annoying other MEPs and leave politics to people who know what they're doing.

    Yeah, yeah, we get it, you hate the EU, Nigel… 🙄 He should just calm down and have a milkshake. 😂

    Mr Fartarse (oops, Farage) might be so full of himself, but he is forgetting that the turn out for European election was just 36%.

    The parties (UKIP and Brexit party) which support a Brexit make up 37%, whereas the parties against a Brexit (LibDem, Change UK, Plaid Cymru and the Green party) make up over 40%. So he is just as delusional as May!

    The only ones who have a say about Brexit are the Tory party and they are still in power.  As May said, the only person who can sort it out is the one who can find a compromise.

    The show is not over until the fat lady sings.

    There is no question that by now almost all Europeans ARE sick and tired of dealing with Brexit, and most people now think that Britain should either vote on it again, or since there is no sign of that going to happen, they should just leave, even without a deal, even if this will be bad bot for the EU and the UK. The British assumption of being able to get all the good things out of the EU but being allowed to refuse whatever they do not like has been galling to the rest of Europe for a long time.

    It is difficult to understand not putting UK results in the context of turnouts across the EU. The UK, the election to prove how angry and betrayed the 17.4m felt, only managed a 37% turnout. That is 14% below the EU average of 51% and far below turnouts in the 55-65% range achieved in major countries such as Germany, Italy and Spain. France was on 49%. This surely indicates that the Euronihilstic tendency in the UK is very small and almost non-existent across the rest of the EU.

    On the point at 9 mins, a hell of of lot less people vote in EU elections than national elections, the ones that Did is a startling image, it shows that the brexit party will win by a landslide in a national election, the UK will never leave Scotland leave, cause like, resources.

    Let Scotland get independence and remain in EU, English Brexiteer will have their significant majority in the Parliament. Everybody is happy then.

    You cannot keep advocating for referendums until the Elites get the result they want. That is a surefire way to eventually get a civil war.

  16. @sublivion5024

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    The chart at the end is completely wrong. Labour aren't a remain party – their manifesto says they want to leave with a deal. The Conservatives promised to deliver the result of the referendum, so they should be counted as Brexit supporting.

  17. @lovelondon3388

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    So biased – you have add up The Brexit Party, The Conservatives and UKIP – choosing to miss out the Conservative party figures for Brexit, is choosing to misrepresent the information to your end game – showing you to be a liar.

    You do realise labour said they would respect the referendum outcome so there on our side think you very much

  19. @raquetdude

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    Labour voters are not pro/anti Brexit tho, they are completely mixed. Adding them to one side does nothing

    When will you Brits recognise the deal is the deal !!! THERE IS NO MORE NEGOTIATION. You talk about democracy out of both sides of your mouth. "Leave means leave" you say but then don't accept the deal that your elected officials have negotiated on your behalf. You don't want a second vote because you want people's votes on Europe (democracy) to stop when you had the 2016 vote. Why then are you not abiding by the 1975 referendum? – "Things have changed since 1975" you say. Well things have changed since a big red bus had 350 million on the side.

    Nigel is a total prick BUT when he says Brexit it really means Brexit

    May has just stalked and staggered the fuck out of the Brexit process

    I actually refused to vote ever again because of how Brexit has been handled… I voted leave and well… we are yet to leave

  28. @grousetheghoul2754

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    The next four actions for the Brexit Party. One is get one of " our allies " to block any move that gets us out of the EU until the General Election. get more than one country, have them take turns. Veto everything. All of it. This will give the people the chance to see who they are voting out. Second : Actually fix the NHS. no strings attached. Pay doctors and nurses football money. The word gets out they are getting paid solely on merit, the doctors and nurses will be flocking back to Britain.. Third : Care fore the people in the army or other branches of the uniform. I mean care, not just 1 meal and a handshake, or what people throw at Nigel Farage. Fourth : tell people the truth about election results. People voting twice and all the other lies, and whatever else along those lines.

  29. @betrthnu3413

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    It's wrong to add the whole Labour vote to remain, they stood on a manifesto of delivering brexit.

  30. @daniell2040

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    Can you do a video and see if other countries are leaning possibly to leave the eu?

    Nice bs figures about the pro-leave %. You assumed only ukip and brexit voters wanted to leave that's complete and utter crap.

    Leave means leave. Sort it out.

  33. @theanyktos

  34. @lostliberty9913

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    It means The people want Brexit. Brexit parties got more votes. And the Brexit Party got the most votes by far. There’s just more Brexiteer Voters than remain voters. The vote proved that.

  35. @Solo-vh9fm

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    Adding labour as a pro-remain party is misleading. Actually the percentage of the votes for a Brexit with or without a deal is 60% (also including DUP here) . An arguement could also be made that a lot of brexiteers would have boycotted the vote, and the turnout noticeably increased in pro-remain areas. And also with just half of the voting pop. in the original referendum voting this time, the results seem inconclusive

  36. @vickyrushton1783

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    Should you have mentioned the numbers of voters in the UK who are EU citizens? Do you have numbers and projected votes for them? Does this change your graphs in any meaningful way?

  37. @DiyEcoProjects

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    6:54 TLDR news check your BIAS … "the eu is such an important institution" IN YOURE OPINION

  38. @airstrip1836

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    You can't add the Greens and SNP to the Remain side – they both owe their support largely from a single issue not related to Brexit. If you want an independent Scotland you vote SNP, if your biggest concern is the environment then you vote Green.

    How many SNP voters would like Scotland to leave the UK AND the EU? The Greens have anti EU members, in fact in the 1980's the Green Party policies were anti EU.

    A better comparison would be between the Brexit Party and the LibDems if you want to gauge opinion on Brexit.

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    We shouldn’t have even spent the tax payer money on this vote, it shouldn’t have even happened.

    What next?:
    1/ Tories are done for due to in-fighting due to leadership races.
    2/ Lib Dem’s will grow due to their anti-democratic stance on cancelling Brexit.
    3/ Another conservative-like party will rise in power to fill the void.

  42. @luisabarca7363

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    What a mess!… Long time ago, Georges Clemenceau said: “War is too serious a matter to entrust to military men”. Now, the world can say: “Brexit is too serious a matter to entrust to politicians”. Especially, people like Nigel and Boris Trump. I strongly believe British people should give the Brexit responsibility to dedicated, experienced and serious professionals such as Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp.

  43. @aperson22222

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    The Brexit Party had all it could do to prepare for the European elections, I don't think they're ready for a general election campaign. But they will be soon. Getting the snap election out of the way quickly may be best for the Tories after all.

  44. @aperson22222

    January 23, 2024 at 9:53 am

    I like that the Lib Dems are doing well again. I just wish that nice Nick Clegg were still around.
