    Sometime this is the case. But sometimes it is simply clever people laughing at stupid people.

    On history, the attitude of the Scots says a lot about why an ever closer EU will not work. They have been part of the UK for over 400 years and many still feel culturally separate and want to get out. Why does anyone think the Germans, Poles, Brits etc. will be any closer to being part of one nation in 400 years?

    PS Or try looking at the history of Yugoslavia.

    No, I was being ironic (and inflammatory). You're just demonstrating (again) your own low intelligence. But do go on, it's fascinating in a car-crash kind of way.

    A lot of people think that Brexit = right wing, Bremain = left. This isn't always the case. I know some Trotsky who is a Brexiter.

    HTH, BIKIW.
    Wasn't it? I told you who would be the next PM and I told you who the Brexit Minister would be. Do you want next week's lottery numbers too?

    Intelligent people do.
    No point discussing it now though, eh?
    Lets talk in 5 years, one of us will be proved right.
    Although the more likely outcome is some fudge that will be labelled Brexit, but isn't.

    Quite.

    There are positives and negatives for both sides. And I respect which ever way people voted. Heck my wife voted remain so it's not exactly been a great atmosphere.

    But to call a million people morons because you don't agree with how they voted makes you look like a complete tosser.
