I actually voted Remain in 2016.

But I’m looking for positives to take from this situation rather than this oddball view of revelling in negativity.

If my girlfriend got pregnant and I hated her and the kid just because it’s not what I wanted, only took the negatives both have brought to my life, wished neither of them were in my life and never looked for anything good that could come from them; people would think I was a fucking ****!

There's a lot of weird analogies on here, but comparing Brexit to getting your missus up the stick is a pearler.
 
You don’t understand my stance because it’s so ingrained in you (and not just you) that there are only two sides to an argument you have to rubbish or counter-argue everything that you think isn’t your side.

You even said I took a side because of one comment I made. Do you know how sad and childish that sounds?

I’m very open to any criticism of CANZUK, I didn’t know it even bloody existed until last night.

I just thought I’d put it on here to add a bit of positivity to a thread that’s entrenched in two sides who won’t see that they’re both wrong and both creating a negative environment for all the normal people who pop in here from time-to-time to see if there have been any developments.

But we’d never know if there have been any developments because the thread is full of sad cunts who just want to rubbish everything that doesn’t sit on their end of the argument and it’s just page after page of shite.
As one of the 'sad cunts' - I suggest that you are spot on and welcome the comments

The tone of the thread will never change if exclusively left to the same sad cunts.

Others have tried to inject some freshness, balance and objectivity - but have been seen off by the sad ****'s need for their 'deadly embrace'.

I think you’ll find that nearly everyone wants Brexit to be a success. Most former remainers just can’t see that happening due to the government being seemingly intent on No Deal, which Johnson said a year ago was a million to one against. Those odds seem to have tumbled somewhat and the Brexit ultras, although relatively few in number, are loving it. Most people who voted for Brexit did it on the assumption that within a relatively short period of time there would be tangible benefits. We’re now told we’ll have to wait 10, 20 or 50 years for that to happen. If you want to look for positives you need to hope that the government start to realise the reality of the situation we’re in and start getting serious about negotiating a favourable deal rather than posturing about fish and the ECJ.

And I would ignore the bloviator. All he does is prattle on about remainers (even though there’s no such thing anymore) and gets excited when there’s negative news about FTA discussions because he wants no deal.

Good analogy - because a lot of the issue - with Remainers for understandable reasons as they have not got what they wanted (TBF Leavers are on course to which is why they are less bitter - perhaps we would be just as sadly bitter if we had lost?) - is that they are riddled with bitterness because people have had the temerity to do what they wanted/chose - rather than what they were told.

You will see a lot of 'desire' for the UK - free of the EU - to fail, although this will be denied - because such failure will be proof that they were right in their minds. Winning an argument on a football forum, it seems, is indeed that important.

To continue the good analogy - it would be like you 'needing' to carry forward your bitterness at the unexpected news - by deliberately refusing to take part in the preparations for the birth and refuse to be supportive and involved during the birth.

To complete the analogy though - I think that you would need to also continue your bitterness to include refusing to acknowledge that the child is a joint responsibility and to hope that your resultant family life is full of unhappiness and eventually split up.

If you could be that much of a sad **** then you would probably qualify to join myself and others on here on a permanent basis;-)

And you are spot on to characterise the 'diehard posters' on here, including myself, to be sad cunts

We are sad cunts - but the state of denial is such that some cannot look in a mirror and see how proper sad they come across

You do well to hold a mirror up to them/us - it would be good if they have a look at how they are seen rather than simply deny and deride you - which is the normal reaction

Think it would just make you an absentee dad.

I prefer the third option of just taking the piss.

If you had been on this thread for 4 years you would know the Remainer code :

No opportunity should be missed to associate all people that support Brexit and their motives for doing so to them having racist tendencies etc.
Is that either a whoosh moment, or hypocrisy?

You think the EU's FOM is inherently discriminatory (because most Europeans are white and it excludes the rest of the world) but CANZUK's FOM isn't because...?

"If my girlfriend got pregnant..."

Nowt to do with you then?

I don't think you've really thought this analogy through.

BI claiming to have Leaked letter from Truss re border plans. Apparently she is concerned we won’t be ready. I mean no shit. Nothing gets past our Liz. No idea why you need a leaked letter to point out the bleeding obvious.

‘Ports might not be fully ready
NI protocol unlikely to be either
UK plans could be challenged at WTO‘

There are a lot of remainers who flipped to leavers currently in government. Flipping helped them get re-elected and top jobs. The next election is a long way off and a lot of shit to hit the fan. Is this the first sight of a rat getting ready to jump?

A leaked letter, Bob? Sounds like she's just been reading your posts on here. No mention of using political will to get round problems, or about the benefits of Brexit.

I’m sure a bit of oomph should sort out this little problem.

I expect you'll get a lot of nit picking about your role in the hypothetical pregnancy while your actual point goes over the heads of the nit-pickers. Don't let it put you off posting more in here though - I enjoy the balance you bring.

Of course you do. He promoted an idea that CANZUK will save Britain, but hadn't read and doesn't want to read anything countering the idea. If you're only looking for positives about Brexit, that's not balance.

You’re making stuff up again you lying fucker!
 
Tomorrow’s FT front page on London cutting across devolved competences. Basically it’s a SNP wet dream.

 
To balance things up can one of the Brexiteers post a link to an up to date article explaining some of the tangible benefits of leaving that are becoming apparent now we’re out and 6 months from the end of transition. Wouldn’t want the usual accusation that Brexit sceptics are trawling the web for negative news and are not interested in the positives.

It pisses you and Bob off?
