Or as upsetting for you?

Treason May - going against the will of the people who elected her - treason?

Remoaners - people who voted to remain in the EU, lost, and then did nothing but moan about it?

I'd say that they're both very appropriate epithets.

Re: Thank God We are Out of the EU ...

I see that Treason May has been having a dig at Boris, decribing his threats to revoke/ammend parts of the Withdrawal Agreement as being an abandonment of the UK's moral leadership!

That's from the woman that abandoned moral leadership herself when she ceded all control of the Brexit process to the EU by agreeing to their demands on sequencing and timing, right at the very beginning of proceedings - and that's without considering the delaying tactics which followed in the obvious hope that somehow the UK would remain subservient to the EU.

She also very conveniently ignores the multiple and frequent immoral actions from various EU politicians, Junckers' mouth-fart regarding May being just one of many such examples.
Also ignored is the fact that - as a tactic - it worked.

IMHO she is a hateful woman; what a shame that she holds such a safe Tory seat.

Not passionate enough to continue arguing against Brexit in here you mean?

Re: Thank God We are Out of the EU ...

Another example of the sort of British inginuity and world-beating design capabilities that should help to grasp new global opportunities:

"New UK-designed ventilator could mean fewer coronavirus patients need intensive care"

"Researchers say the negative pressure device is more comfortable than other ventilators - which use a mask or a tube to provide air - as well as being significantly cheaper and needing fewer staff.
Patients also don't need sedating and can eat and take medicine by mouth, while also being freed up to speak to family on video calls or phone. However, the ventilator still needs to be approved by regulators."

That would give the CPTPP around 16% of international trade compared to the EU 27's 15% IIRC.
