    I’ll squash it when I see it or I’m alerted to it.
    Well you see, there was this referendum, only advisory mind you, however a number of people voted Leave and some voted Remain and this has now caused a great tension across the country. Mind you, there are people who voted Leave but then changed their mind and want to Remain and I suspect that if the result had been the other way and people had actually voted properly after doing a bit of research and having a bit of foresight, this sub-forum and the bitterness would not exist.
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      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'.
      Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

        This is a code monkey forum. We should hit that requirement with a software sledgehammer. Allow me write it up for admin in the behavioural style:

        Given a People's Vote that results in brexit
        When the expats of CUK become terribly upset
        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!

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

              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?

                    You can never have too many shotgun cartridges.

                    I wonder if there'll be plenty of tinned unicorn in Tesco's.

                      You'll get nowhere on here talking sense like that. Once the Bremaoners get back from changing their underwear they will be all over it like a cheap suit.
