Now that you're out you're STILL bitching about the EU. What part of 'you're out' do you not understand? Continuously brushing all your ills onto the EU is exactly why people are happy you've fucked out and are getting fucked over by your own leadership.

Good Lord . . . all economic facts notwithstanding . . . your economy is fucked. Your trading pacts are fucked. Your politicians are fucked. Your society is fucked. The opportunity you found was trading the EU for some backwater Asian trade deal in which you are second level . . . oh, and one with NZ to import even more and creating more shit for your trade balance.Quote:

I understand the curiosity of no passport holders and no residents. What I find slightly more difficult, is the unrestrained, Brit hatred and vitriol expounded by yourself.?Quote:

The parliamentary process was stalled by devious MPs, including the so called unbiased speaker of the HoC trying to reverse the public vote by every method possible, other than another vote.
This
I suspect they did not like the result of the public vote, and reared another failure?
These attempts went close to anarchy at the very highest level. Why do you think that was such a great advert for democracy?
The first people to backtrack, the morning after the result, was the Brexit brigade. Have you forgotten the Farage interview where he distanced himself from the battle bus. The whole Brexit campaign was based on lies and shouting over the voices of the experts.Quote:

Easy - I illustrated it quite openly in the post you quoted. Years of watching soap-dodgers blaming everything under the sun on the EU . . . then you thankfully fuck off . . . and still blame everything on the EU. It's all fine and good throwing shot at everyone else but when it comes back the incredulity on your part is staggering.Quote:

As above - receiving the same treatment as you dish out seems something incomprehensible to you.
I feel so sorry for the likes of Hal and Shutree (and tens of millions more, including businesses) whose lives, their children's lives, have been made more difficult because the great 52% unwashed masses swallowed every nationalistic diatribe offered.
Simple.
Nice body swerve ignoring the post Brexit vote, remain skullduggery in parliament!Quote:

Im not a very political type and I object to being classed as a Brexit supporter. I try to see things from both sides, even if that makes me fence sitter.
In my mind, the EU political project tries to serve too many varied masters. As a trading block it has many good features, but the whole show has too many political influences. It was best left as a free trade organisation but has become fettered with political machinations.
Members are simply not allowed to dissent. Trade and politics are very different things, and they will never merge successfully. I can have no influence as an individual on these issues, so it’s a bit pointless trying.
I am only surprised the EU did not insist on another referendum, until they got the result they wanted? They have form you know.

Post Brexit Referendum vote to be precise. All polls and by-elections have shown a dramatic turnaround against the Conservative Party since Brexit.Quote:

The majority of people now know Brexit was a mistake, polls show this by a wide margin, and Brexit politicians are getting a deserved slap in the face in the polls.
Eventually, the UK will swallow its pride and return to the EU, it's just a matter of when.

To do otherwise would be an admission of idiocy or insanity.
cyrille and s.a.
a most unlikely pairing. one a hypocritical and sneering socialist expat with a fondness for oppressive dictatorships but nothing to either gain or lose from the democratic decision to exit the EU, and the other a disillusioned old windbag, his vivid dreams of grenache blanc fuelled evenings in provence or a cosy tax efficient retirement in the algarve cruelly stymied by the wishes of the racist plumbers, tory scum and rural housewives that trampled roughshod over the desires of those who thought that alignment with a ugly misguided protectionist superstate beholden to the domination of germany was a sensible course of action.
