You said all of leave was made up of what you said. So are you lying? (Well of course you are because even if I knew of only half a dozen who left for other reasons it would show you’re lying) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These were the people who Farage and co could see were ripe for the picking. And what do you class as older folk? The family I work for now are worth over 500 million, he’s in his early 50s, he, his wife and 3 of his 4 kids (18 - 22) all voted leave. Which of your catergories do they come under?

Why do you think that is? Because they have a clue? Did I vote to leave because I was lied to? because I’m fick?

And they want to leave? I'd probably not want to rock the boat if I had that amount of cash. Bit counterintuitive to want out of a system which sounds like it's done very well for them?

We were told it will be a disaster the day after the vote. No one believed it. It wasn't. Still the same patronising clap trap, just insults to justify remaining. Still going on, increasingly so in the house of commons. And "experts" in the media scratching their heads as to why there's an increase in 'populism' in the world.

Interesting, (well nearly), I caught a bit on the BBC parliament channel earlier, it was the house of lords which I'd usually not bother with, but by chance a lady was talking about something which had been touched upon previously within a brexit debate before the meaningful vote. Thankfully, it clarified a couple of things for me: article/section of the Vienna convention, would probably mean that the EU couldn't keep the UK in the backstop. Moreover the WA wouldn't override the Vienna convention, because of various clauses. The lady concerned explained that a number of top international lawyers were of that opinion, and a number weren't. Thus it would end up in very long-winded legal deliberations. As she put it "this should focus minds of the EU" with regard to current negotiations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
