#3 renders the whole post useless

'Administrative measures'........hmmm what a great idea, that just about nails it. Why didn't someone come up with that 3 years ago...

In the video I shared a few posts back, Dominic Cummings (who ran the leave campaign) basically says that hardly any of the British public have a clue about the EU, hence why he ensured that the leave campaign focused on vague soundbites rather than anything substantial, simply because the public wouldn't have got it if they had. It's lauded as some amazing democratic exercise, yet even those campaigning admit that the electorate didn't have a bloody clue about the thing they were voting on.

"the electorate didn't have a bloody clue about the thing they were voting on."That also applies to the remainers i presume

Probably, but he was specifically targeting leave voters so I presume he was referring to his target market in that presentation.

The first five minutes highlighted what is possible with very little money and the will to succeed

Everyone has the right to ‘apply’ for asylum from persecution. Asylum does not have to be granted. There is a small but important difference...

No, they were the only ones who fully understood what the question was and it’s ramifications, what with the rest of us being old, racist and stupid.......

Define persecution.

“That would be an ecumenical matter”

 

[peteblue]

Just like all the people who have done that and you've ignored it. What's the point in actually trying anymore? Just get on with it.

This is my view entirely. We should just get on with leaving.....

Well, It doesn’t mean ‘we don’t like living in Italy or France so we thought we’d go to the UK’. That’s not actually a definition of either asylum nor persecution.....

I asked you for a definition of persecution not a subjective diatribe....
