Oh Dear, there goes the real reason the Leave side won the referendum
In the Telegraph
"
Boris Johnson refuses to commit to reducing immigration as rivals clash in final leadership debate

From the leave Voters point of view nothing remains of the promises of the Brexit campaign, does it?
Their vote was worth precisely NOTHING.
You are right, there is absolutely nothing left. One by one, day by day all of the promises and all of the aspirations have evaporated.

Anyway, that doesn’t matter now WTO is the new battle cry. Nobody knows what WTO is or how it will benefit them, but they want it, and they want it now. They’re fed up with waiting. Can’t remainers get it in their thick heads that the 51.89 % didn’t vote for WTO or had never heard the term prior to June 2016, but they want it regardless? “Here we go WTO, do-dar...do-dar.........”

didn't BJ give to remainers a near cast iron guarantee that they'll get a deal by October 31st, 1 million to one or something? or is it the other way round, one to a million now?

An interesting election promise from the potential EU Commission president today. .. Ursula has stated that she is in favour of allowing the UK More time ,to complete democratic processes, post October!,should it be necessary.
Of course she also reiterated the centrality of the Backstop type provision, making a collision with the stated aims of your two contenders inevitable

I am somewhat perplexed.. why would Mr RM have wanted Europe to win a world cup in Cricket,when there was an English team playing?. So he was stating the obvious,I have heard of the legendary British sense of fair play, but that would have been ridiculous
The England Cricket team: - Captained by an immigrant - Batting led by an immigrant - Fastest bowler an immigrant - Leading all-rounder an immigrant - Main spinner son of an immigrant...

This is what I got.

You are highly intelligent, and your IQ is 151 or higher. You are highly perceptive and self-aware. You enjoy solitude and have an introverted personality. People often describe you as quiet and wise. Your IQ range is evident in individuals with a PhD.

Snap, exactly matching my Mensa score. The third sentence describes me, especially the solitude. Is it also true of you?

I guess I like solitude so long as I have something to do. I couldn't just sit somewhere gazing into space.

Doesn't everybody?

I think most of your contributions to this thread would counter any indications that you are "highly intelligent".

Well the internet disagrees with you and we know the internet never lies so I'm guessing you must be feeling pretty, pretty silly right now.

more remainer drivel about immigrants. Voting to leave was not a vote against immigration, but about the lack of ability to control it. Unfortunately this simple fact has been distorted by the remain campaigners all along trying to paint leavers as racist. It's just a load of garbage and well you know it

Plus ofcourse the fact the "immigrants" mentioned are from outside EU and the unmentioned fact that areas with very large Asian communities voted leave. Nobody can speak for entire communities, except OG and Flecc ofcourse, but all the Asians I know in my community voted leave.
And, the folk I met in India were joyous and supportive of our intention to leave.

That might well be so, but can that explain Mr RMs extraordinary statement?

To assume that only white people living in England and voting a certain way is racist,and other different pigmented peoples are not is decidedly racist. The treatment of high cast Indians to others is racist, as is the emity between Hindus and Muslims,is racist.. I tried reading the History of the middle east by Robert Fisk and could not continue so brutal was the racist genocides perpetrated by all manners of tribes.
