Make up your mind. You made up your mind in 2016 for the referendum, or didn't you vote?
I think you've got me mixed up with someone else Solash. I have
never said EU needs us more,l did question why you lay stress in
your posts,on the damage we are going to suffer if we ever manage
to leave ,perhaps l did'nt make myself clear enough
And l ask you again, don't you think that it's our prerogative to have
the choice,not yours as you say you will be in the Netherlands.
I have never said, and never wanted to damage the EU.
But l do believe we are disadvantaged by being members
The rules are patently unfair to us.
We have the right to judge that, nobodyelse
I respect your views,but, we come from different directions
I can agree with you on your statements about our history & our
mistakes & our government but they are also ours

Does this answer your question?

Nice one Solasch and spot on again.

I just wonder how many times they have been told that, is it the same amount of times TM said we would be leaving the EU on the 29th March do you think?

First, we are both members of the EU, you and I. Members look out for each other. If one is heading towards destruction, you warn him, try to stop him.
But as a second, in the end it is your own choice, as a sovereign country. Perhaps noteworthy, apparently you have your sovereignty (still). Where does that leave you with the leaver's argument that brexit is about regaining sovereignty?
