Excellent! @Joey66 puts the middle finger up to a lot of posters, including Mark and myself, and ruins loads of threads. Your reaction? Nothing. This @hawhawP character comes on, blustering about Enoch Powell. Your reaction? Nothing. Are you just whining, upsetting and wumming people who don't share your view of the world? Selective whining is not a good look. @Mark O'Silver calls bigots out, calls liars out and, to my knowledge, has not been banned. @Joey66 and yourself have, if I recall correctly. If some left wing clown acted like some of the recent right wing idiots I would expect a few of the left leaning lads in here to let them know that that kind of behaviour was unacceptable. Catch yourself on @peteblue

It is, but again it should be pointed out that May had a deal and that Boris (and Rees-Mogg) voted against it twice. Others in the Cabinet voted against it three times.
If anyone betrayed Brexit, it is the Brexiteers.
think your correct . nothing has happened that reasonably could have been foreseen. either Johnson really is a buffoon or there will be a twist somewhere along the line.

The EU have been showing signs of a dictatorship for years. Their Presidents are not elected by the people, and they allow little room for debate. Ursula von der Leyen has been voted in as the President of the European Commission, that's the most politically-powerful position in Europe. Yet in Germany she's seen as a failed Minister where she had only modest gains as Family Minister before making a balls-up of the Defence Minister role. She was in Bulgaria this week preaching EU values and refused to take journalist questions.
Christine Lagarde will become President of the European Central Bank, yet she has dodgy financial controversies in her history (check her Wiki page for more details). Juncker, Tusk and Schulze have not been shy in being overly-confrontational with UK ideas, at best this is undiplomatic behaviour not befitting EU Presidents.
Something stinks up there in EU chiefland. What can EU members do about it?
People forget why David Cameron allowed a public referendum on Brexit: it's because he recognised this stink and requested EU work towards reforming some of their top-level processes so that they be more transparent to the public. This was arrogantly rejected by EU chiefs. Cameron's reaction by allowing the UK public to vote on EU membership was in theory a fair and rational thing to do, but he underestimated how fervent the pro-Remain crowd would react. We've thus had 3+ years of poisoned shouting rather than rational informed debate. It's been so poisonous that a lot of us are asking if it was worth even having the referendum in the first place. Better the devil you know and all that...
Brexit would force the EU to reform in ways that Cameron had suggested (more transparent), as the EU would not want to risk any other members pushing for their own Exits as this decreases the funds the EU get to work with.
That's the position of the left/liberal-minded person who supports Brexit.
It’s an absolute farce all around. I remember way back when the result of the referendum was announced... the Tories were full of themselves and telling us how they were going to the Eu with a list of our demands and if that bloody Eu knows what’s good for them they will listen and give us what we want.
There began the problems... when they went in with their little englander demands right at the beginning... it was as laughable then as it is now and it just set the time for the 3 years since.
Yep the same position we’ve been in since the referendum.
Let’s face it- the country is split down the middle and we are looking at several more years of the same thing. Even if there is no deal, we immediately go into trade deal discussions with the EU where the same problems faced in the withdrawal agreement need to be resolved.
Honest question for the leavers on here. Is this all worth it?

Isn’t that the most ridiculous thing though. We have a government and through shenanigans from the speaker, the opposition is in charge.....

He arrived into this thread an hour ago pissed as a fart, immediately quoted one of my posts and called for me to be banned, then launched into a long winded personal diatribe against me. The man cannot hide his bigotry against Irish people. It's been like that for a long time on here.

I would reckon there is quite a good chance they would let us revoke.

I honestly think we can do anything. Our country is so great and we should be proud. Think about the hero’s of the Somme, or the Brave men who stormed the beaches.
We will never ever ever surrender to the EU. I am prepared to lose everything in order for us to have Brexit, it’s the most important thing in my life.
If that makes me talking nonsense so be it.
it was 102 at dinner time one tory had put 11 in.
rumours on the tv before that a deal has been offered Johnson will let it through end the filibuster if Corbyn will go to a GE, little bit on newsnight before

Good point, for me the answer is yes. Perhaps you should also ask the Remainers....
