Perhaps, though I suspect it will be news to the inhabitants of Britain's weaker economies that their Brexit vote gives consent to withdrawing their food and subsidies.

What a load of rubbish!

The amount of utter crap from Remainers in here today is like a kindergarden in full WAIL!!!!!!!!!

For disagreeing with you?

Actually think about it. You all went for a vote one way or another. One side won so the other side have called them for everything ever since. Calling them racist and xenophobic simply because you didn't get your own way?

There is an alternative, we could replace democracy in this country with a dictator who doesn't give the people the choice. Part of me thinks that's preferable to whining and moaning about others disagreeing with you.

So yes , it's childish and pathetic even now. People voted, some people lost and some won. Like any other vote , until people realise that by throwing a temper tantrum won't get their own way, then politics in this country is dead.

No, some people voted with a xenophobic and / or racist agenda, that’s a demonstrable fact. (Note the use of the word some)

To suggest that calling that out is in anyway wrong is something I simply don’t accept.

Look at the videos of the celebrations last night for details btw.

I'd be very capable of discussing the benefits of Brexit if someone happened to provide one.

Nobody ever has.

"...People blaming immigrants to cuts in their benefits..." Really? Having worked in the benefits system for nigh on 33 years, I know that benefit rates are set by Parliament, so I do not believe this contention.

Labour did not know how to deal with Brexit, I agree. But they should have known. Corbyn should have said, in so many words, 'We will honour the Referendum result, but work towards a more equitable society embracing all of our people.' I think something like that would have kept a lot more 'onside' and would not have resulted in the loss of so many northern seats. Starmer did not help things either, every time he opened his mouth on TV!

And finally, I'm not racist, however much you want to label me as such. Just pack that utter crap in against individuals. You are making yourself look absolutely bitter, you know, what the RS accuse us of. You are heading towards being the epitome of it...

I never said you were racist to be fair. So you can cut the victim lines. The main crux of my argument is that the vote was driven by xenophobic, archaic and outright racist rhetoric and discourse. It’s unarguable. You may have perfectly sound reasons for wanting to leave, but a byproduct is you’ve legitimised a poisonous movement.
I have this argument with plenty mates of mine that voted leave.
Anyways, gonna try and watch us get pumped of Watford.
