Reply to: Govt Remainers Move to Kill No Deal Brexit

[Old Greg]

The only way to get no deal off the table is to have a deal. The only deal we have currently is May's deal. Therefore those that want no deal off the table must support May's deal.

When you only take isolated paragraphs or sentences from a single post that contained much more. The part quoted may require more of the post to be referenced in order to place it in its proper context.

Well that is untrue. The top post that I have quoted is an entire post. Do you stand by it?

It was a minor involvement from the UK, less than 25% of the total:

Waterloo wasn't the big thing. It was the Russian led capture of Paris in 1814. Waterloo was a post script.

The role of the UK shouldn't be underestimated in terms of the naval blockade, perhaps more important than the Peninsula War.

Thx for correcting the post.

Not for a while and not often.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland beat Napolean. Prior to the French revolution it wasn't a united kingdom.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has never beaten France.

Wellington later said that he had "an infamous army, very weak and ill-equipped, and a very inexperienced Staff". His troops consisted of 67,000 men: 50,000 infantry, 11,000 cavalry, and 6,000 artillery with 150 guns. Of these, 25,000 were British, with another 6,000 from the King's German Legion (KGL). All of the British Army troops were regular soldiers, but only 7,000 of them were Peninsular War veterans. In addition, there were 17,000 Dutch and Belgian troops, 11,000 from Hanover, 6,000 from Brunswick, and 3,000 from Nassau.

Two and a half Prussian army corps, or 48,000 men, were engaged at Waterloo

assuming they survive the marches and civil unrest.

There aren't enough de-fibrilators to keep that gammon-fest walking for long.

They can go a long way on bile.

Cancelling Brexit would have the beneficial effect that disillusioned Brexiteers will no longer be motivated to vote in future elections and referendums leaving the rest of us to run things properly.

Maybe French can export some of their yellow vests? How did the UK ever defeat the French in a war?

No I don't because I have been consistent all along when not quoted out of context.

How many people are on UC versus how many people are bin dipping.

Do you think maybe those dipping for food have spent the money they were given for food on non food luxuries?

Cancelling Brexit would have the beneficial effect that disillusioned Brexiteers will no longer be motivated to vote in future elections and referendums leaving the rest of us to strangle everything with more rules because we like rules because rules make us feel important and allow us to look down on people who the rules tell us it is okay to look down on

But this is not what you were saying in the top post I quoted.

Do you understand now how you got it all wrong?

Well?

A sensible Remain administration would pacify the snowflakes by leaning on the BBC to schedule a rerun of Love Thy Neighbour.

And "til death us do part"
