Brexiteers warn of Wrexit

Peter Bone:



oh dear

**** me, the rest of that article is a complete disgrace. Is that really the way that elected representatives should be talking about their colleagues and British businesses?

Brexiteers warn of Wrexit

Peter Bone:

I think the Establishment and Remainers are playing a brilliant game.
If I had to have a bet on whether Brexit will happen, I would say it’s probably 60-40 it won’t happen.

oh dear

It's fine for him to tell us what we can do. But unfortunately your post is a bit too pre-post-fact for some of our more cretinous colleagues.

I would go a bit further than that - anyone can tell us what we can or cannot do. Whether we listen to them or not is up to us, and what we actually do or don’t do is up to our elected representatives, both as Westminster MPs and Brussels MEPs.

The Daily Heil tells me every day that I should be afraid of forriners, but I don’t listen to it....

Can you provide a quote where he’s telling you what you can or cannot do?

Then why the fook does he keep trying to tell us what we can and cannot do?

Something we can at least agree on.

And Arsenal, and fags

Didn't the UK public who not only voted for Brexit and Theresa May also voted for Tony Blair three times? I think I'm seeing a pattern here

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.

Probably using the current UK regime as a template

Oh right, so the EU told the Italian and Greek electorate who to vote for...

Vote? The EU tries to avoid troubling the electorate with such trivial matters wherever possible.

Well it (the European Commission) isn't officially a government (yet) but it's doing a very good impression of a very bad government...

Juncker isn’t the head of a government, so by your own definition he isn’t relevant.

Putin's goal is to destabilize the EU he does that by supporting both the extreme left like Syriza in Greece and the extreme right like UKIP and the brexit campaign in the UK and independence movements like the one in Catalonia

In the case of Russia, it suits them for the UK to be out of the EU because the UK has been the main lead in pushing the EU for sanctions against Russia. However, their are is a long list of countries that want Brexit and have voiced stronger support than Russia most notably Israel who want a special deal with the UK, Iran wish wants the UK out of the way for new EU deals, USA Trump administration in the hope that the UK will debase import regulations, India and many others.

Brexit has made the UK an easy target for other countries.
