    On the contrary. There were enough British voters with the backbone to ensure that your scenario will never happen.

    You ought to be thanking us.

    When the going got tough the tough got going.

    I doubt that the nation that once presided over the greatest empire in the world need fear the empty threats of a collection of drunken mitteleuropean bureaucrats whose sell-by date has long since expired.

    Buckle up buttercup, the future is bright.

    Unless of course you mean a propensity for completely changing tack on your voting intentions.

    And we all know who THAT applies to don't we?

    Unlike you, and having a bit more worldly wisdom, I fully expected there to be a period of instability before everything gets settled.

    And also unlike you, I am not a skittish bedwetter that craves certainty in every phase of my existence. I am dynamic and energetic enough to cope with unrest and turbulence and so is the country as a whole.

    The current situation was entirely predictable with the only surprise being the level to which it has upset the snowflakes. That has been an added bonus.


    Well what else could you say without losing face. It's the kids I feel sorry for. But as you say I'm sure they'll cope with the increased poverty.

    In essence, you have done a 180 degree u-turn on your original decision.

    Why should anyone listen to your latest piffle?

    Particularly when one considers the welter of evidence stored within this forum that pegs you as a gurning simpleton with little comprehension of anything more complex than licking windows?

    I love the way you and vetran (sic) evade the question.
    I happen to have come to the conclusion that a real Brexit is the only way to knock heads together
    Plus the entertainment will be priceless.

    Now now boys, you know I'm all for a real Brexit. If there was another referendum I'd vote out.
    Question is, for all your content free posts, are you?
