    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The gullible fools and the despicable people who voted leave in the 2016 referendum for all the worst reasons imaginable would have it today that democracy ended after that tiny majority vote in an advisory poll. It seems they simply want to have their way regardless of the real-world...

    This is what the British establishment interpret as the will of the people: The time to stop the fascists is now! Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Well, you have presented your viewpoint and I find you incredible. I don't know what 'robdon's viewpoint is but he doesn't strike me as being an idiot from the responses he has made to many posts in this thread. A man is entitled to keep his own counsel and I don't think anyone should be...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It's the weekend so let's take stock of the recent events connected to 'Brexit'. 1) People who campaigned to end free movement are now outraged that movement will no longer be free. 2) On May's most recent trip to Brussels, she was asked by the the EU team: What do you actually want...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    This incompetent PM is worse than I thought; she must be as mad as a box of frogs if she thinks the public will believe her latest outpouring after her unsuccessful trip to Brussels: uk-politics-46569699 It is rumoured that under questioning from the EU leadership as to what it is she seeks to...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    This is how one correspondent sees the present situation in regard to the tory rats fighting among themselves: 'For the first time in ages the tories and their backers know they face a counter-hegemonic threat from the left. They fear corbyn and rightly so, he spells the end of their victorian...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I find myself in total agreement, not for the first time, with today's web blog, AAV, which provides an intelligent and honest perspective on political goings-on: Theresa May's insidious pact with her Tory MPs is another extraordinary example of the prioritisation of narrow party political...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I have just read the BBC's report of May's wasteful misuse of public funds by revisiting Brussels with nothing to offer the 27, simply hoping that, by some miracle, they might just have had second thoughts since the last meeting. Halfway down the page, there is an 'Analysis', as the BBC...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I see something wrong with any poster who does nothing other than contribute off-topic nonsense to a thread; like you! If you have nothing positive to offer, perhaps because you know that 'Brexit' will be disastrous for the British people, why don't you just say nothing? Tom

    Why are you here? It seems that the answer is that which I deduced in my previous post. Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yes, that was my opinion and here is some more of my opinion: You have nothing to add to the continuing discussion so you have chosen to be disruptive, rather than point to any benefits that might ensue if the UK leaves the EU. It therefore follows that you are simply trolling. Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Once again, the world watches the undignified spectacle of a lame-duck British PM going grovelling to the EU in an effort to gain improvements to a 'deal' she only recently agreed upon. Which countries, I wonder, will trust the UK in any matter in future after witnessing its leader welching on...

    You are simply being provocative and posting rubbish just to disrupt the thread. Have you got anything new and on-topic to add to the discussion at all? Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Stronger together! That was the soundbite from the tory party when they tried desperately to convince the Scots that they should remain in the union. The people in this pic know that we are all stronger inside the union of 28 that we call the EU. Tom
