    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Thanks yes,now we just have to find a way to agree about the way UK has been responsible for the flood of refugees by destabilising the middle East.

    Nice boat,yes to be honest I have to be here for some work otherwise lovely as it can be I would be elsewhere too.

    That's an opinion, and probably as informed as your other opinions.

    Perhaps you need some basic education twit? After that course of anger management.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Merkels rescuing of victims of war isn't the cause of recent terror in Europe (that's been for the record done by EU nationals). You're attempt to conflate the two issues is far beyond disgraceful.

    Yes it's an intriguing case of projective identification (hating most in others what one fears most in oneself),the way some in Britain,who obsess about benefits and milking the system in their own lives,try to portray immigrants in their own image.

    Entirely hypothetically one can anchor in villefranche for free, and its beautiful,unless there's a southerly. But against all odds there are affordable places to moor in Riviera.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Glad to see you read my post about brexit harming the economy and being the negative thing that's happened (rather than the understandable upset of the rest of us,who have to live with the consequences of an almighty error of judgement by a bunch of cretins). I am French,I'm not sure this will...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Okidokes,here's my public service broadcasting for the day. Get out of denial. I have loads tied up in UK. I have no reason to talk the economy down. It's not anyone being negative. Delusional thinking is what caused the brexit vote. It can cause more damage. If you have to practice some flavour...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I can only conclude that you don't read the business news,and do not have investments. I suggest you have a look. Rather a lot has happened,notably to the pound. Yup, I've moved to France. I'm in the south. The Riviera,recent tragedy aside,it has a human,communal atmosphere I didn't experience...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    All of that is hypothetical, what isn't is the beginning of a UK recession due to brexit,as OG post above describe. That will cool minds in Europe and restrict thoughts about EU exit to a small minority of right-wing nutters

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I can see where you're coming from (and think the Tories were trying to do some housecleaning with the public while labour was disunited), however in this case I think Hanlon's razor (i.e. if stupidity is an adequate explanation don't assume malice) may have trumped all else.

    In the 21st centuries interconnected world xenophobia is not a great paradigm to design ones future by. Have a look at what happens to erdogan's turkey in the next few years. The part of me that owns property in the UK wishes you were right about the bright future, selfishly. Sadly you're dead...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Well,since you ask - and to use your words - the final two paragraphs sounds a lot like the kind of tantrum a peevish brat would have. Grow up and argue like an adult. Oh yes,and while I'm at it,accept that you live in a shared world. And stop thinking a 2% majority equals a quorum. Got it?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yes,the brexit fiasco has dramatically changed my perception of democracy. Political science aside I think the right to vote should be on condition of someone having capacity (in a psychiatric sense viz sectioning for example) and being able to prove they are informed enough to pass qualified...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No,it really isn't. I think you've watched dambusters once too often. Excess fantasy and too little reality is a brexit problem. Take it from someone who's been a conscript in war in Africa,there is nothing remotely "like old times" about war.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I agree,the only thing I would add is that the brexit vote has already done significant damage to the UK,and to each of us individually. I can understand that there are UK citizens who felt left behind by years of Osborne austerity and rewarding the rich. But this was not the EU,who were trying...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It was not my intention to try to be clever. Frankly, rightly or wrongly, brexit is one of the most stupid things I've ever witnessed an electorate do in my forty odd years on the planet. And the deficit and finance account is to my mind a simple way to illustrate why. You're the one who started...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Glad you're finally up to speed re deficit, now just need to get so re finance account. But my dear flud I'm not biting,I've done my own brexit,I'm back in France. Good luck to you. One thing I will say is that the xenophobia of the leave campaign has left a lasting impression on everyone I know...
