    Slight logic failure there.
    CUK expats won't be hit by failures in the supply chain, gammons like you will.
    But then you're not the sharpest tool in the box, are you?

    If you mean Brexiters, they've all minced away because no one wants to be associated with the pain that's to come.

    Then we should restrict access to all CUK expats from the CUK mince subforum

    You really do need a snowflake safe space away from the clever meanies!

    That assumes the remain and leave arguments would be clearly presented with no obfuscation, manipulation, or outright lies by either party, backed by an impartial media that would give concise facts about the state of things and what the effects of remaining or leaving would be.

    Not a bloody chance.

    So we as citizens shouldn't be angry with each other but with the government that has done the damage. It's not 'remoaners' vs 'brexidiots' but the government would prefer we vent the frustration and resulting anger on ourselves than them so they can continue to be corrupt self serving duplicitous scumbags pretending to be incompetent buffoons.

    Twas ever thus.

    It'll be alright in the end, so 'chillax'.

    I’ll squash it when I see it or I’m alerted to it.

    Unfortunately, the media in particular the DM, Exp, and politicians such as Farage have made bexiters get into a frenzy there will be violence if there is no hard brexit.
