Not at all.

You will find us Brexiteers love Europe, the people, places, culture etc. We just don't want to be in a political union with them.

You who want to remain still sneer at us and treat us like we are stupid but you still don't understand why we voted leave

Move to Dublin if you feel that strongly about it.

There's one thought that keeps worrying me about the way our MPs have been behaving, over this Brexit period.

I imagine a hypothetical situation where the UK had to go to war, with, for example Russia, or some such.

Here's my problem. If our MPs undertook to undermine our government, by broadcasting plans & processes, knocking back acts of parliament, bringing up legal reasons why we should or should not do certain deeds, advising the opposition of all plans, in that war, would we not label them as TRAITORS and deal with them accordingly?

Without taking a robust approach and dealing with 5th Columnists & naysayers strongly, we would lose such a war and be lost without trace.

My worry, now, is that if we are ever threatened, by warfare or rebellion, we will manage it like we have managed Brexit.

God help Us all!

Only recently the UK was at war with iraq. How did you manage that?
You did find and destroy weapons of mass destruction, didn't you?
