If you don't keep on confronting them with facts and disprove their incorrect arguments, it's like accepting the post truth world, that they (brexiteers, ALT-right and ALT-left) and the Trumpeteers in the US are creating. Not ready for that. -

What facts. Facts like Kent will become a lorry park in the event of a no deal Brexit. That is not a fact it's someone opinion. The fact that in the event of a no deal brexit the world will come an abrupt stop and no one will be able to trade with the UK for millennia. that is not a fact it's someone's opinion.Originally posted by Eirikur View PostIf you don't keep on confronting them with facts and disprove their incorrect arguments, it's like accepting the post truth world, that they (brexiteers, ALT-right and ALT-left) and the Trumpeteers in the US are creating.

I see as many "facts" spouted by remainers and I do from Brexitiers. Truth is neither Brexiters nor remainers have a sccoby doo what will happen after Bexit. It is all speculation and guess work. Some might say, "but we've modelled it and our model says the human race is doomed in the event of a no deal Berexit." A model is only as good as the data input into it. Crap in Crap out.

Facts like the duty on New Zealand wine is currently just a few pence because of favorable EU trade deals. So when we leave the EU and magically negotiate some fantastic new deal with NZ, our Villa Maria in Wetherspoons will not be any cheaper. Most likely it will be more expensive because of the slump in the value of the pound.Originally posted by Yorkie62 View PostWhat facts.
Facts like that. Facts the prick the fragile balloon of the fragile Brexit loons."Don't part with your illusions; when they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live" Mark TwainComment

Clearly the UK government think Kent will become a lorry park come Brexit given they are building a, erm, lorry park. The FACT, is that the government believe this. Clearly Kent being a lorry park isn't a FACT yet, because we haven't left the EU yet - we will only see, once we leave the EU, whether the forecast that Kent motorways become car parks or not.Originally posted by Yorkie62 View PostWhat facts.

You are a typical Brexiter, claiming things haven't gone wrong yet even though you know we haven't actually left yet! Things are however worse now than they were pre A50. Things are continuing to get worse. Most forecasts predict things will get progressively worse once we leave the EU. Suck it up and take responsibility for your actions.
No one has said the world will end once Brexit comes into being. Stop being so melodramatic you little snowflakeI am what I drink, and I'm a bitter man
