Welcome to the club, mate.

Some of us were getting malleted thousands of pages ago in this thread. A couple continue, but nearly all who voted Leave gave up trying to engage in meaningful debate a long time ago. No point, you just get the same old same old ridiculing, and attacks...

Just sit back and read/watch the angst in here from the Remainers.
Yeah I know mate. I've been posting in here pretty much from the start so I know how it works. I'm a glutton for punishment though as I keep on coming back for more. The one thing I don't do anymore is explain why I voted to leave. I've done this 2 or 3 times in the past and you just end up having discussions with half a dozen or more at the same time that invariably turn into arguments and falling outs. And I'm getting too old for that crap. If anybody is that arsed about why I voted to leave they can always look back through the pages of this thread as there are probably dozens of my posts on the subject.

There are a handful of guys in here that I have had genuine discussions with, and there are quite a few more who I believe respect that I am a fairly moderate leave supporter and do try to be balanced and see things from their side as well as my own. But the majority in here are just out to set you up for the kill. They say they are open to debate but apart from the few they pretty much aren't, they're just dismissive.

Sadly the thread has become a parody of itself, which is basically a boys club for remainers in which they can post their ante Brexit material and poke fun at the pesky thick Brexit voters. I hoped it may have improved a bit after we actually left, but if anything it's got worse.

I think over the years I've put poor micknick on ignore at least 3 times so I can effectively ban myself from the thread, but it keeps on dragging me back in. I must be mad lol
 
Those Brexit chickens are coming home to roost.


Bit of misleading story though that, the queues were nothing to do with where your from but to do with training new staff

"Yes, there have been no changes at our airport for UK travelers," a spokesperson said. "New staff members were being trained yesterday, leading to longer queues at the passport control than usual. Sadly, this tweet has taken on a life of its own."

Don‘t give up, there are one or two who will provide sensible debate, but only one or two sadly......

I may not agree with Brexit itself , but you are imo a rational and intelligent person who has actually given proper reasons why you voted as you did.....respect.

I have to say I was puzzled myself as as far I knew Uk citizens are still in the EU queue but I thought it might be a ‘trial run’ type scenario. I’d suspect almost certainly the process will be delayed in future for those without EU passports but no need for that twitter chap to excited just yet , although his stupidity can’t really be held against those that replied .

I genuinely have memory issues due to a head injury but to the best of my knowledge you’ve always been reasoned in presenting your reasons for voting leave and the rationale behind it . I also think I’ve discussed it with you possibly several times . If everyone presented or laid out their position like you then I suspect things would be significantly less heated . If someone is prepared to counter argue in a reasoned manner And take onboard points made its a lot easier to interact with that someone that doesn’t read your post ranting incoherently about democrocy

At Dublin Airport they suggest non-EU queues are around 4x the wait. It's hardly pie in the sky to suppose that travel will be harder, and that's before quite handy things around mobile roaming, healthcare, driving licensing and pet travel.
