    Most Brexiters are sick of all the violence around these days. They want a peaceful life. Like during the war.

    They probably also want a pair of those slippers with chunky zips at the front.

      Shows how educated the Dutch are; at least someone is learning from our mistakes.

          A new low, quoting a poll by the Independent.

            Check the small print: YouGov - admittedly it's not InfoWars or Stormfront, but they are fairly reputable.

              I saw it. Had a look at the geezer in it also, he once held a record for the backstroke. Honestly, if the Independent had anything to do with it, for example paying for it then it's dodgy. You get the answers you pay for.

              I had a look through their site looking for the methodology and who paid for this survey but couldn't find it. It's always nice when people link to the original data (wish i always did it).

                      Specifically, in the last 25 years, all of them. Not because all of them are bad rules (many aren't bad at all) but for the simple fact that "Brussels" has the power to pass those rules in the first place. When we signed up to the transition from the EC to the EU, our civil service went to sleep, so now we follow even some rules we don't actually have to.
                      "Brussels" is a closed bureaucracy, with only two priorities; keeping the power and perks it already has, and gaining more of both. Westminster and Whitehall only care about the perks, and don't seem to care about handing over the power.
                      If, after this farcical process, we don't actually leave, we are simply rolling over and inviting the EU to tickle our tummy. They may of course choose to kick us in the bollocks. If they do, at the next election remember that Parliament had the chance to determine who governs the UK, itself or Brussels. Either by sheer incompetence or deliberate design, or most likely a muddled confluence of both, the latter seems increasingly inevitable.
