OT: Rejoiners

Those are are due to the big spike in consumer prices which has nothing to do with brexit.

That is flagrantly dishonest on your part.

Project Fear was the flagrantly dishonest claim that the UK economy was certain to implode spectacularly, that there would no longer be any trade with the EU, that no planes would be able to fly outside the UK because the flying agreements would be null and void, etc etc etc.

No it did not. You are confusing brexit with what that fool Truss attempted after Boris was dumped.

Bullshit.

We should not have joined the Common Market in the first place, we were warned by Enoch Powell. DeGaulle didnt want us either.

Who promised that and, more importantly, who is a big enough d*****ad to believe marketing puff?

Your comment that "the Leave campaign should have done its homework" is what is irrelevant, since it's me that gets to put the tick on the ballot paper, not the Leave Campaign.

Then you need to explain by whom, and how, such homework could have been done without official support.

That was your expression. You explain it. You said "Second, they should have been expecting to have to take over government if Leave won ...". The implication of which was that it would be the Leave Campaign taking over the govt.

So what.

Youre starting to sound like Rodyney, BTW.

definitely +1

Just about the only sensible idea DeGaulle ever had. We should have listened to Enoch Powell - the best Prime Minister we never had.

However, you must be quite unusual in not listening to what the campaigners had to say.

The same way that any business would without government support, by using consultants. Unless, of course, any consultant they asked told them that Brexit was a thoroughly bad idea. In that case they would have to make it all up, as they appear to have done.

That is a weird interpretation. It never occurred to me that it would not be obvious that I meant the politicians who were fronting the campaign.

Over the period of our membership, the UK economy grew by an estimated

Bullshit.

Even more flagrantly dishonest than you usually manage and that's saying something.

Even sillier.

Easy to claim.

And regardless, the majority who bothered to vote voted to leave and you get to like that or lump it.

Far from it. You patently didn't.

Not at all. Brexit in so far as we actually have it is doing fine. Unfortunately we are still tied to the EU by thousands of laws and the NIP and a lazt civil service.

Well unfortunately it was the remain politicians who took over. Determined to make it a failure.

You have absolutely no way of telling that Like your support for the EU, it is merely an article of faith.

Snip.

!! Is this the first inkling of a leaver accepting that Brexit is not quite what he expected? Look on the bright side. We no longer have to worry about unelected government from abroad, just our own ineptitude!

But that was then split across a population that increased 36% - and a good chunk of the population increase was due to freedom of movement. A smaller economy would have been fine, if GDP per capita had ended up higher.

...

I not only listened, but I also did as much independent research as was possible. That lead to me the conclusion that the Leave campaign had no good arguments, while the economic reasons to remain were sound.

Another unsubstantiated assertion on your part.
