    I'm guessing you're one of those people that googled "What is the EU?" the day after voting to leave it.
    I guess you've not read any of my posts on Brexit stating that I didn't vote leave.

    Get yer coat, you've not pulled.

    Soviet Union (where I lived and you did not) was (and still is) full of idiots, the scary part is that UK now turning into one!

    Syrians go via Turkey, in very large numbers, why are they not going to UK but instead Germany, perhaps they are afraid of Brexit now?

    So, it turns out that it wasn't just Brexit vote - according to Mrs May:

    "When the British people voted in the referendum last June, they did not simply vote to withdraw from the European Union; they voted to change the way our country works – and the people for whom it works – forever. It was a quiet revolution by those who feel the system has been stacked against them for too long – and an instruction to this Government to seize the opportunity of building a stronger, fairer Britain that works for everyone, not just a privileged few."

    The system which she refers is parliament and not the EU. Since the vote there's little to no sign of that system changing but a lot of damage has been caused in the mean time.

    By that time Sterling will become Turkish liras of the currency world.

    That will show 'em!
    Ah, you clearly are dimmer than a prawn.

    Refugees want to cross Europe to get to the UK, rather than just stop at the first safe country.

    But yeah, keep letting them in.
