    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.

      Yes it is the Teutonic way to keep hammering at something even if no one finds it remotely amusing.

        I hadn't realised you were German. You learn something new every day.
        Just saying like.

        I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!

                View 1: Is about people looking in the past for answers with no idea how to move forward. Reeks of bitterness IMO.

                View 2: Is about "I've learnt so much from my mistakes I'm thinking of making a few more" - Yet the UK does not.

                Implication of contradiction seems to me hook line and in sinker with the characteristics of view 1, looking for flaw rather than result. Redundant of ideas capable of only consumption, what a waste.

                This now the UK as I see it, pillage for what's worth create nothing. Sad times indeed.
                That's not a reply, to me it looks just like a desperate and tangled statement about your assumptions and prejudices of UK people.

                      NOT UK people, people in England. When there's a side of you you don't like you need hide behind the union.
