How do we resolve the Brexit mess?

Yup - our Wetherspoons when it opened did so with an extensive patio - now engulfed by a Tommy Walsh style gazeebo.

Currently in Christchurch and Bournemouth on a break ( I know I had assumed we would have had the league won by now ) even here the weather has been mostly shit - Monday and Tuesday were awful
 
So - eve of GE upsum. All the members of the G7 are successful mainly because they are in a trading bloc. Most successful - in fact moderately successful countries have open trade and movement wit their near neighbours'
The charlatans sold the shall we say easily persuaded that going it alone was the way to go. Everything the charlatans promised has in fact turned out to be the polar opposite.
The big winners have been the charlatans who avoided tax restriction from the EU and have made hay out of extending poverty.
Think about that.
If you have an alternative view feel free to lay it out for scrutiny

I'll take a swing ;-)

Brexit means Brexit (catchy no?) - therefore by definition has been a roaring success.

I'd quite like that to by tattooed on all of the associated politicians foreheads...........

Are you suggesting you should be able to get cancer if you have a penchant for smoky bacon crisps, or are you just acting the ****, as usual?

Technically standing outside can cause cancer. Having an x-ray is FAR more likely to cause cancer. What's next? Banning BBQ's? Banning alcohol? Banning fat people?

On the balance of probabilities and risk it really does not matter if they ban a packet of crisps or not because it will not cause a single case of cancer.

That’s the kind of bad faith arguments second amendment nutjobs use.

Banning a chemical that has links to cancer is not the same as banning breathing.

How many deaths are caused by alcohol and smoking? It's just my personal opinion that on the balance of risk there are much more important things to worry about and people should be able to make their own mind up. If there was an established risk of cancer as with something like asbestos exposure then fair enough, but that isn't the case.

It's no different to aspartame in Coca Cola which is well studied and has also been linked slightly to cancer. So do you ban aspartame? What is missed with aspartame is the fact that you'd have to slug away 20 cans a day to even slightly increase your risk.

Are you really dying on this hill? Substance with links to cancer gets banned and you’re trying to defend the decision by saying look at these other things that are bad for us?

Alcohol and smoking are taxed to the hilt and make more money than it does to treat conditions. Perhaps smoky bacon crisps should be available at £12 a bag.

Scientists discover chemical that can cause cancer and suggest banning it.

Inbetween “yeah, but what about these over here”

Do you have shares in Golden Wonder. (Other smoky bacon flavoured crisps are still available)

You've caused an outcry with that post mate, it'll go down as bacon gate in the distant future.

I'm not sure why all the remoaners take themselves so seriously on this thread.
Self appointed experts on everything Brexit. No doubt the insults will fly from proper keyboard warriors.
Like Vegans, they just cannot help themselves.

Bet they are so much fun in the pub etc.

Wow, remoaners.

You seem stuck in 2016.
