Re: BREXIT is a LIE. GB is located in Europe.

Only free country in Europe, Spain, Portugal not in Europe then?
Forgot Switzerland, can't get much "free-er" than that!

Re: BREXIT is a LIE. GB is located in Europe.

Hi

A big difference Purwell.

In WW2 Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Sweden and Eire declared themselves Neutral.

With the exception of Switzerland, they are all now members of the EU.

Re: BREXIT is a LIE. GB is located in Europe.

Correct. However, both Spain and Eire leant towards supporting Germany.

(Incidentally, why is there a red squiggly line under 'leant'?)

Re: BREXIT is a LIE. GB is located in Europe.

Because although the act of leaning can be pronounced 'leaned' or 'lent', it is spelled 'L-E-A-N-E-D'
thus leant is an incorrect spelling

Re: BREXIT is a LIE. GB is located in Europe.

Thank you for that explanation. Incidentally Germany was free as well wasn't it?

Re: BREXIT is a LIE. GB is located in Europe.

No, not like a gym contract. Very much a serious binding contract with a great deal of small print and as always, the devil really is in the detail.

The signing of these treaties by various politicians, prime ministers and the royal assent given them, amounts to treason in the British Constitution.

No-one may hand the country over to a foreign power and no-one may hand the British justice system over to a foreign power, yet that is exactly what has occurred, mostly by stealth and without the British population being properly consulted and given a vote.

This is why your OP and the views of most Remoaners is in error. BrExiteers voted to get out of the EU, not because of the immigration issue, but because we could see that the country has been betrayed by a corrupt elite and corrupt politicians and that the entire notion of British nationality and all that stands for, was being eradicated. We could see from reading the treaties that in fact, the small print would see us become irrevocably absorbed/assimilated into the totalitarian EU collective. That our military forces and resources would simply become a part of a huge EU army. That our justice system had been fraudulently overtaken and superseded by the EU justice system.

We could also see how stupid the EU voting system was and how little influence Britain had within it. It needed the votes of numerous other countries to achieve anything, countries who frankly have no interest in what goes on in the UK.
We could see how that situation would just lead to EU votes becoming a tradable commodity. One country needs your vote? Ok, what will that country do for you in exchange?
Just utter madness and not a way to get things changed in the UK that need changing.

The UK needs to look after its own interests and to do that it HAS to be in control of its own affairs, not be held to ransom or be at the mercy of a load of other EU member states who don't have our best interests at heart.

The UK needs to establish its own energy sources in order to kick expensive foreign imports into touch. That would never happen whilst we are a part of the EU imo. The UK needs to start manufacturing again and create its own internal markets. "Buy British" etc. People need to realise the true price and consequences of cheap foreign goods vs good quality but more expensive home made goods.

And so it goes on.

In the end, the entire immigration issue was, quite frankly, way way down the pecking list of reasons to come out of the EU. It's just that the Remoaners, many of them corrupt City Boys who currently enjoy fraudulently fleecing the population via the corrupt stock markets and financial vehicles, latch onto the immigration issue because they don't like the notion that the rest of us can clearly see the "system" is total BS and MUST come to an end.

It WILL come to an end, and BrExit is really just the starting gun being fired in that race.

Thank God for BrExit !

Really?

Also, for your edification, 'lent' is the past participle of 'lend'.

Re: BREXIT is a LIE. GB is located in Europe.

Yeah this is incorrect as JBR highlights.

Leant IS a correct spelling of the past tense of the verb To Lean. This verb belongs to a wider set of irregular verbs which all have the option of replacing the "ed" with a "t" in the past form. Other verbs in that set include:

To Learn (learnt)
To Leap (leapt)
To Dream (dreamt)
To Creep (crept)
To Deal (dealt)
To Dwell (dwelt)
To Lend (lent)
To Rend (rent)
To Smell (smelt)
To Spell (spelt)
To Spill (spilt)
To Spoil (spoilt)

An individuals choice to use either the "ed" version or the "t" version will come down to the country they generally live in. Most people worldwide speak "British-English" rather than "American-English" and so I would expect the "t" forms to continue and prevail.

Re: BREXIT is a LIE. GB is located in Europe.

Although, whereas Real English might be more popular globally than American English, I suspect that the latter is becoming more prevalent just as it is in this country, probably because we hear it on all the Hollywood films and read it on so many internet sites.

Thanks for clarifying Real. Much appreciated.
