OK, so the leaflet is here.

"Customs Union" does not appear in it once.

"Single Market" appears 8 times, and not once in the context of "We will definitely leave the Single Market".

The leaflet did say "Voting to leave the EU would create years of uncertainty and potential economic disruption. This would reduce investment and cost jobs." but of course you know the Brexiters called this 'Project Fear'.

If you equate support for The Brexit Party Limited with support for No Deal, then having got 30.5% in the EU parliament elections tells you that 69.5% do not want to leave without a deal. Indeed, the official Vote Leave position was to not leave without a deal.

OK, I stand corrected, the leaflet I recall must have been a LibDem one. I'm in a very LibDem area and we were bombarded by them.

His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...

Nope, still not telling us HOW the EU is making it difficult.

What has the EU done in the last 3 years that has made it difficult?

Read between the lines please.

No. Come out straight and say it. According to you, us remainers, we're too thick to understand things like "democracy". So you need to be explicit.

But you can't. Because all there is between the lines is

Are these people experts because you know what the Leave camp think of experts?

Correct no one was absolutely sure what will happen when we leave the EU.

Also no one was absolutely sure that staying in the EU was in the UK's best interests either.

So the people decided that at the very least we need to ensure that as far as possible we need to ensure our destiny is in our hands - and not the hands of 27 other nations with conflicting interests and priorities.

What everyone who voted to leave did know was that the EU would make it as difficult as possible for us to leave and would do everything in their power to ensure it looked like Britain would fail - and that is a prediction that has clearly and unfortunately come true.

(who would have thought? )

Could you just explain me on what exactly did EU made hard for the UK to leave!? Last time I checked it was the UK parliament who voted down 4 (FOUR) times to leave the EU, including an agreement that was obtain by the BRITISH government!!!

How come that the inability of the British parliament on passing any way of Brexit is EU fault?

So the answer to simple questions is another question!?

You start to sound like a real politician...
