Re: The UK should pay closer attention

Why not practice what you preach then and shut up gloating?

You've just condemned millions of people as clueless.
And this is exactly the kind of sour grapes attitude denigrating Brexiters for their choice that has caused so much angst since June.
I wish everyone would just accept that voters exercised their right to vote and abide by the result instead of sounding like a petulant sulky kid still in nappies.

Not sure who that was aimed at, but I will choose to ignore it anyway.

Hi

I agree, I would not have been happy if we had voted to stay in the EU in it's current form, but I would have accepted the result and got on with life.

That is what Democracy is all about.

I would not be happy if we had either Corbyn or Boris in charge, but again I would accept it if that is what happens.

Hi

That is the difference, a democracy is what it says, the will of the people.

We can always vote them out next time round.

But surely Brandy would make him even more crapulous.

If the remain people notice that they are getting us to respond to their comments, they will think they are winning a battle.
I am convinced that I made the right decision and nothing they say will change that belief. If the rest of the leave voters feel the same, then I suggest that you completely ignore all the opposing opinions, by completely ignoring their posts. They will have nobody to argue with if we all do that, and that is all they can do, argue, because nothing any of us say will now change the course of events!
I take your point, Twinky. I don't think debating the matter with the remainiacs will make them change their opinions. Likewise, remainiacs trying to convince us that we were wrong to want to leave the EU will not change our opinions either.

What worries me are the remainiacs who continue to insist that we leave the EU under a 'soft Brexit', in other words to leave but at the same time to agree to continue with a free-trade and free movement agreement, which is basically the same as remaining as we are now!

They think that in trying to persuade the powers-that-be that a 'soft Brexit' is the way to go they are quite likely to succeed.

We must continue to insist that we want to leave the EU without any strings attached. If we just sit back an ignore them it may, I feel, encourage them that we are beginning to accept their 'soft Brexit' proposals.
