Two weeks tonight.
Can't wait as I've had a 47 year hatred of the Common Market / EU / Ever Closer Union.
You can prove anything with statisticsDoesn’t that make 110%?
110% of people disagree with that.You can prove anything with statistics
Was that an admission?Surely you are not implying that I'm deliberately misinterpreting what someone has said in order to misrepresent them and repeating myself in the process? It would be terrible if this started happening in the brexit thread.
That you make the 2nd statement suggests that you are not one of those Remainers that have accepted the Brexit referendum resultI think most remainers have accepted the Brexit referendum result
And I think most people have accepted it’s been a complete waste of time.
Great postEven if the figures did suggest that many wanted to remain, you still can't dispute that we are predominately a eurosceptic country.
I voted remain purely because I didn't think we'd do as well, I'd leave though if we could avoid any pain and the trend obviously will be that at least 'some' remainers would too.
The 48% that voted remain aren't all out marching on the streets for remain I can tell you that. If they were and that figure outweighed the 52% then we'd be remaining but we aren't. Leave has won every single decisive election on the matter since the 2015 GE.
The rest of remainers couldn't care less because it's happening and we all need to move on. What is left is isolationist Lib Dems and Labour Twitter warriors, the kind who spouted about a Labour victory last month which quickly turned into ash.
It's gone and the sooner we all accept that it is happening, the sooner we can start arguing instead for what's best for the country afterwards.
Correct - Implementing the project in the UK depended on politicians taking that direction - through signing up to treaties whilst promising then reneging on promises to consult the public - and the majority of the population not knowing or caring.My experience of the "young" generation? They don't give two shits about things like "federal Europe" or "a unified EU". And the generation after them will be growing up in a UK that is no longer part of the EU/EEC following a wartime regeneration period. There's no sense of dependency or urgency like there once was.
The 'Younger' Generations simply don't care about or have as deeply run passions as the millennial+ generations do about Europe. If we do go back in to the EU, I find that it'll be because of the older millennials, not Gen Z and younger, so Verhofstadt is pretty clueless about this issue here. The love of the EU project was a generational thing, and these younger generations either don't care or won't have been exposed to it.
You can't even be honest about that. Bray gave up a month ago.Great post
There are a dwindling number that simply cannot accept, not just the Brexit referendum result, but the reality of January 2020.
During 2016-2019 they took comfort in and hid behind claims that the referendum was unfair - now, the 'remaining' arguments seem to be a form of, licking their wounds, whilst posting about 'technical' majorities and hoping for bad news to emerge that can be blamed on Brexit.
The number will keep reducing - indeed, from a Leaver POV and after suffering all the machinations and protest at Westminster it has been quite satisfying to see the almost total collapse of resistance and protest.
Of course there are a small number of diehards - such as: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...it-protester-says-after-uk-vote-idUSKBN1YH25F - that are so entrenched that they cannot 'let it go'.
Can’t tell if this a parody account or not?
I guess the bell donors will be happy to give it to a charity. Overseas aid? Refugee support?Thank fuck I will be in brussels that day rather than watching this wanky shite going on.
What a waste of time and money, I expect 11:01pm will feel no different than 10:59pm except to the sad fucks that are ardent leave or remain.
Both sides get over yourselves and get on with life, money could be spent on important things.
Is that silly prick Bray (how apt), still dressing up like a five year old let loose in a fancy dress shop?Great post

Help for heroes, apparently, so it's all good in the end.I guess the bell donors will be happy to give it to a charity. Overseas aid? Refugee support?
You’d have to wonder why nobody in the media ever quote this stuff back at him, at least to ask him what’s changed that he now thinks it’s the best idea ever....So Javid is now telling businesses to prepare for uncertainty as we diverge from EU rules, but he can't say which.
And that's someone who knows how stupid Brexit is.

To accept the result of the referendum you don't have to think the process is actually a good idea. I think brexit is one of the most ridiculous, self harming economic decisions that has been taken by a country in recent years.That you make the 2nd statement suggests that you are not one of those Remainers that have accepted the Brexit referendum result
Not hearing many Leavers stating that it’s been a complete waste of time
You’d have to wonder why nobody in the media ever quote this stuff back at him, at least to ask him what’s changed that he now thinks it’s the best idea ever....
That’s a long time to hold a grudge. Hope your life changes for the better on the 31st and sorry to hear how badly your life has been ruined by eu membership. I’m the opposite, I expect my life to be ruined from 1st February
You are sinking further and further down to the level of those that post without thinking / reading things through in their haste to try and score a cheap pointYou can't even be honest about that. Bray gave up a month ago.
He's still right.
In a victory speech, Johnson appeared to refer to Bray, saying: “I say respectfully to our stentorian friend in the blue 12-star hat: ‘Time to put a sock in the megaphone and give everybody some peace.’”
“My response to Boris Johnson? ‘When you stop telling lies and start being honest with the British people, I’ll put a sock in it,” Bray said.
