You refuse to grasp that it wasn't the economy people voted out for.
It was accepted there would be a hit financially.
We wanted out the EU. We had a vote and the majority said leave. We don't care. We wanted out.
I don't think it was as clear cut as this. While I fully agree with you that all the leave voters wanted out, I see this as a background common to all leave voters.

Virtually all had additional reasons from the following which varied by individual:

Stopping or drastically cutting immigration.

Stopping the fictitious £350 million a week payment to benefit the NHS.

Making all our own laws.

Not being subject to the ECJ.

Freedom to make independent trade deals.

Losing the Human Rights Act.

Hatred of Brussels on various grounds.

The false idea that Germany runs the EU.

Perceived EU corruption.

Dislike of individuals such as Jean-Claude Juncker.

No Leavers accepted there would be a financial hit before the vote, their campaigners promised the opposite, financial gain and that is what they voted for. Some like yourself have very belatedly accepted there will be loss.

It's not a card when it's right.

You portraying English abroad as criminals or drunks drinking in Irish theme pubs is a tired, lazy stereotype and if you turned it round and used the same pastiche towards another country then you might get my drift.

There is no point to argue. Just try not to do it again.

There's a good chap. It makes you come across as a little bit thick and I'm sure you're not.

Oh dear. From accusing me of racism to personal slurs. You know, I'm beginning to think you are a bit thick

Lol.

Hello Tom.

Didn't last long mate.

No lies this time. We'll keep you straight.

Right, I'm assuming Tom is your shadow friend? Don't be embarrassed, I think I can speak for all on the thread if I say we really do understand how difficult it must be for you to have actual friends. Being a troll isn't easy

You have to change the schtick. Change the M. O before we clock you.

You can't go from reasonable to 'you're a troll' from nowhere. That's Tom. You're not Tom remember?

Alarm bells ring. But as I say. Don't lie and we be fine 'aggers'

You really shouldn't have picked a cricket persona after banging on about how much you liked cricket when you were Tommy liar.

Are you a socialist JA?

I had wondered... Think you are right..

I didn't want to say it straight away as I could have been wrong. Although it was so obvious. Benefit of the doubt and all that.

Lets see what we can make him say to mask his identity.

I'm going hard on socialism.

What an odd couple you two are. When you have returned from this folie a deux I will be happy to continue discussing brexit with you. But, I'm afraid there are limits to how far I am prepared to entertain others bizarre fantasies, so you'll have to count me out of more than this bizarre glimpse into your world.

No worries Tom...sorry Jon.

When you’re ready.

We can wait.

Are you a socialist?

Dear Jon/Tom,
Just in case you haven`t noticed this is an Ebike forum, the title `Pedelecs` sorta gives it away.
When a new member joins this site believe it or not it`s because either he/she has an ebike, about to buy an ebike or just has a genuine interest in ebikes. The first thing they will do is either seek information or relate their pleasure in this great mode of transport.
You on the other hand have made a bee-line straight for this Brexit thread -
since you joined you have not made a post about ebikes at all.... all of your 28 posts just in this thread!!!.................

https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/search/26121/

so Jon lets tell the guys and gals why you`ve only posted in this thread ??

Bingo!

Let’s have some fun first though Tommie. See what we can get him to say.

See what lies we can get out of him. Let’s see if he will renounce socialism for a start.
