Re: Is a No Deal Brexit a Worry?
Did George Soros get a mention in that Stephen Fry diatribe? I got as far as the assertion that some `Leavers` were using Brexit to boost their incomes before I stopped watching. George isn't short of a few bob is he? This the bloke who manipulates money markets by destabilising a country's currency so he can buy that devalued currency at reduced rates then sell it again when the currency rises in value. This is the bloke who is (allegedly)* funding the `Remain` campaign and the legal claims of Gina Miller in her fight to overturn a democratic decision because she doesn't like the result. You don't seriously think he's doing all of this for altruistic reasons do you?* Added to prevent charges of libel

The Metropolitan-Lefty-Liberal-Remainer Esatablishment always expected that support for Leave would be from the Right.
Well it was, but what surprised and shocked them was that most of the support came from traditional Labour voters, and that's something they could never understand
I'm from a family of builders and joiners .....Grandad a joiner, father a joiner/ builder, I'm a joiner and my grandson has just started a Carpentry/Joinery apprenticeship.
My dad was a member of the Socialist Workers Party and we used to go around selling the SW paper and a pamphlet with 'International Socialists' on it in the '70's/'80's. We supported the strikers in the Miners Strike and went on Anti-Nazi League marches in Bristol and London.
I voted Labour my whole life until recently.
I will never vote Labour again.
They have abandoned the Working Class.
Corbyn is a shambles, a wreck, a dribbling, slittering buffoon more concerned with Uni Campus politics than Working class issues.
The fact that Farage and Johnson speaks to the hoi polloi of the UK better than The Labour Party spells the end for them and I will not be lectured to by luvvie twats like Stephen Fry, Gary Lineker and Hugh Grant

The irony is that one of the key mantras of leavers is that the UK are net contributors and shouldn’t subsidise the net takers
Fry may we’ll be obnoxious but the message he is imparting is real.
However it seems that you would rather throw your toys out of the pram because he’s an “arch leaver” rather than read it
Pathetic!
In fact, your pathetic, transparent attempt at insinuating that I am referring to the ordinary hard-working people and small business owners in London in my accusation against the elite establishment, just shows how desperate you are to convince yourself that you have a sensible answer.
You haven't!
You would garner far more respect if you were big enough to admit you just have no answer to my accusation, rather than come out with really silly fake hand over the mouth with shock horror response, which honestly, is laughable coming from you.
I can read you like a book.
