    I see as many "facts" spouted by remainers and I do from Brexitiers. Truth is neither Brexiters nor remainers have a sccoby doo what will happen after Bexit. It is all speculation and guess work. Some might say, "but we've modelled it and our model says the human race is doomed in the event of a no deal Berexit." A model is only as good as the data input into it. Crap in Crap out.

    Clearly the UK government think Kent will become a lorry park come Brexit given they are building a, erm, lorry park. The FACT, is that the government believe this. Clearly Kent being a lorry park isn't a FACT yet, because we haven't left the EU yet - we will only see, once we leave the EU, whether the forecast that Kent motorways become car parks or not.

    You are a typical Brexiter, claiming things haven't gone wrong yet even though you know we haven't actually left yet! Things are however worse now than they were pre A50. Things are continuing to get worse. Most forecasts predict things will get progressively worse once we leave the EU. Suck it up and take responsibility for your actions.

    No one has said the world will end once Brexit comes into being. Stop being so melodramatic you little snowflake

    Facts like the duty on New Zealand wine is currently just a few pence because of favorable EU trade deals. So when we leave the EU and magically negotiate some fantastic new deal with NZ, our Villa Maria in Wetherspoons will not be any cheaper. Most likely it will be more expensive because of the slump in the value of the pound.

    Facts like that. Facts the prick the fragile balloon of the fragile Brexit loons.

    Exactly. When you are reduced to trying to pass off a few isolated opinions as irrefutable fact then it is a slippery slope.
    People will rightly condemn you for this.

    And you've come to the right place.

    When we were in the EU, they wouldn't give us everything we wanted. They would only give us what everybody collectively agreed. Now we're leaving and they still won't give us everthing we want. They still will only give us what is collectively agreed. Doesn't that prove how evil they really are!!! Don't you see why everyone is so rightfully angry??

    have a go at answering the following questions and then see if there's a trend...;

    Does the WTO have a parliament?
    Does the WTO have an army?
    Does the WTO have an anthem?
    Does the WTO have a flag? (not a logo)
    Does the WTO hand out gold-plated pensions to employees?
    Does the WTO give overly generous expenses to employees, whilst maintaining austerity is enforced elsewhere?
    Does the WTO tell sovereign countries to 'redo' their budget?
    Does the WTO only use internal auditors?
    Does the WTO have 2 Headquarters, that they move between at considerable cost?


    Just off the top of my head, see if you can think of any more differences....
    The Uk should withdraw from the olympics as they have a flag, no parliament, an anthem, super gold plated pensions,extremely good expenses, they tell sovereign countries to sort their budget out, etc etc
