Re: "Remain" supporters - spot the running theme

Quite a reasonable argument for staying I thought.

Re: "Remain" supporters - spot the running theme

Personally I don't care either way whether Britain should remain in the EU or not but there was an interesting article on Globalisation and the effect it is having in the USA and Britain of which the Brexit vote is but a symptom.

Is globalisation coming to an end?

It is a very good read.

Re: "Remain" supporters - spot the running theme

Could you, out of respect, at least get her name right? It's Jo, not Joe!

I am still definitely for Brexit but hope Jo's tragic murder hasn't backfired on her killer.

And I agree with the names/institutions who have a vested interest in staying. Whatever goes on outside their comfortable homes/lives doesn't adversely affect them.

Not that I have ever called her Joe but if you want to be pedantic about getting her name right it's Joanne (or even Helen); as some galah said on here recently "that's what her mother named her".

Good point.

Some Remain supporters with in hours of her death tweeted that her killer was against the EU because of what he was supposed to have shouted Britain First.

Could have been the shout of some one who wants to stay in the EU as well as some one who wants leave.

The Court case will be interesting.
