What we do know, though, from official EU voting records is that the British government has voted ‘No’ to EU proposals on 56 occasions, abstained 70 times, and voted ‘Yes’ to legislative proposals 2,466 times since 1999. In other words, UK ministers were on the “winning side” 95% of the time, abstained 3% of the time, and were on the losing side 2%. Just pointing out how many times the UK government ‘lost’ is hence a misleading picture of what has happened.
Of course it is but they hate all these nasty foreigners so much that they won't listen to you.

Funny that the UK was recognised as one of the the least racially prejudiced country's in Europe!

Great stats but none of this is what the 'people' want.

2466 yes votes proves that the UK is a nodding donkey with no testicles .

This survey is based on discrimination against black people. Purwell comments on discrimination against poles, germans, dutch, belgians, french, spanish, italiuan, austrian, estonians etc. How many of them are black? The survey thus gives no indication about intolerance against citizens of the eu. Some of the posts on this forum give a clear indication, however.

One thing that puzzles me is if we are all doomed after Brexit kicks in why is there this sudden rise in the number of people trying to cross the the channel before the deadline.

I gues they believe what brexiters are telling, that after brexit there will be a heaven on earth and it is called britain.
