    And with that, I think this thread has run its course.

    If it is not reciprocal then it is racist is it? You have accused people who want to control our borders of being racist. Now you are saying that we should control our borders through reciprocal arrangements. Whatever way you look at it you are advocating a level of border control which essentially makes you a racist.

    This is how I see the argument from the remainers:

    1. The UK should have reciprocal migration policies with other countries - those within the EU. This of course means that we still have border controls with other countries (most of them). Apparently Brexiteers are racists because we also believe in border controls albeit with different rules to remainers. Which ever way you turn it both groups (remainers and brexiteers) want border controls only our (brexiteer) version is racist whilst theirs (which discriminates against 80 of the countries of the world ) is not.

    I am struggling to see the logic on this one.

    If the racist argument was to have any integrity at all it would have to mean that the UK borders are open to everyone. I doubt the little turds in the remain camp would want to try and argue that one.

    And it is certainly typical in my experience when talking to Brexiters. Their argument always ends up about racism and emigration. Even the Asians I have spoken to wanted Brexit to stop Europeans (particularly Polish) coming to the UK.

    Two videos of Spaniards being violently assaulted in separate incidents in the UK have gone viral in Spain, fuelling speculation the attacks could be linked to Brexit.

    One thing is consistent, name-calling. Always starts with the Wrexiters.

    I might suggest if name calling is your best defence your argument is probably already lost.

    This isn’t the first time Morrissey has praised Brexit and slammed those who libel Leavers. In August, he said he was shocked by the flat-out refusal of much of the media ‘to be fair enough to accept the final decision of the people’ simply because ‘this decision does not suit the establishment’. He railed against the BBC for ‘persistently smear[ing] people who voted Leave’, who are now largely presented as ‘irresponsible, drunken racists’. He’s not wrong. Since Brexit Day, since that glorious moment when 17.4m Brits voted against an institution that has plunged the Greek working classes into poverty, imposed unelected technocratic rule on Italy, and horribly insulted the plebs of France, Holland and Ireland after they dared to vote against its treaties — and they call this institution progressive! — it’s been open season on Leavers. They’re being blamed for everything from economic chaos (where?) to a supposed rise in hatred to shortages of Marmite. Enough. Brexiteers, it’s time to stand up to these barbs and slurs, to this demosphobia, and say: ‘Brexit was magnificent.’
