Up to now, I have just read this thread to comply with the title, but since we Brexiteers have been invited to comment, I will. BTW I am old and not particularly wealthy, but I am well educated with a Business Degree (majoring in Accountancy and Law) and some professional qualifications.
I am not so sure about Trump, but I most certainly would never vote for his opposition in the election.

This really takes. The biscuit, Old Macdonald who lives in Portugal votes Brexit!
That would be 'your mate', not 'you're mate'. Anyway, I have no time for Farage and don't care what he does in his free time. I certainly have no time for Mr Fart or whatever he is called.Haven't you got a leavers club? you can take you're mate @Pasty with you .... gatecrasher

Having read all the threads on Brexit on TFF the last few weeks I can only say its disgusting the way that people who voted to remain have been allowed to bully people that voted to leave and also that most of the remainers have been/ are allowed to keep repeating the same things over and over again...
Very much sore grapes from a few die hard people that voted to remain and this thread proves that.
I thought the idea that anyone regardless of which side of the fence they were sat on could post on any threads on TFF but this thread goes against the very grain about what TFF should be about.

Me. Assuming it was a question. If it was a stement then I will explain.
I am only passing through Portugal. As I passed through Australia.
I forgot to add to my previous post that I am also well travelled - farmed in Northumberland, Australia, Scotland, Portugal. ?, ?, and eventually Scotland again are the plans. I am only 72 so know I have a few years left to try somewhere else.
It is an absolutely fascinating way to spend your life. Buy some land and farm it to the best of your ability growing crops, and sometimes breeding animals you know little about to begin with, and acquiring all the knowledge along the way. Then go and do the same again in a different part of the world. We are only on the earth once; enjoy the richness of life by farming as much of it as you can. By that I mean personally, not building up an empire where you are not doing it all yourself. I have never had any intentions of reaching the size of holding where I need to employ somebody. I single handedly operated just over 3000 acres of my own and sharefarmed another couple for a little while, but in Scotland on a tiny acreage my wife put in the same hours as me.
My wife and I both intend to spend our last few years in Scotland. That would only change if Scotland gained a Scoxit and became a member of the EU in its own right. I have enough confidence that that will never happen so see no need to change our plans at present.
I voted Brexit because I am British, have opposed the UK being in the (then) EEC and EU since before the original referendum, because it was never in the interest of the majority of the UK population, generally speaking, to be part of it. Why would I not vote Brexit?

What youve described isnt really the spirit of this thread.Brexiter Caveman put it on sarcastically tongue in cheek i think. If anything,its the remainers who are getting bullied as they are very much in the minority on here.Anyway,who cares.

Im sorry but remainers are the ones doing all the bullying on TFF now and some of the comments they are directing at other members who don't agree with their views should not be allowed to be posted.
Before the vote there was a lot of bad feelings on both sides, since the vote it has all come from the remainers.
Time for them to accept the vote and move on!
Right. The vote is the vote. Democracy rules.
Question for you. The electorate voted twice in the past on membership. The voted to join and subsequently to stay in.
Did those who wanted out stay quiet and accept the situation?
No they didn't! They pressed and agitated constantly to get the will of the people overturned in some way or other. Hence decades of grief in the tories in particular.
As they say, what goes round comes round.
The thing is that the population is more or less evenly split on the issue.
If I was a Brexiter I'd be agitating now to have article 50 done and dusted. They leaders are sitting on the fence. They don't actually really believe in it. This thing is getting more and more stale by the hour.
no need to rush GB has all the cards and will play them when its best
Why the hurry ?

Little Johnny was in the classroom bored to the back teeth on a Friday afternoon, and the teacher decided to have a game for the kids to get them thinking.
"Okay class. Now I'm going to say a famous quote, and the first person to tell me who said that quote, can have Monday off." said the teacher.
"Who is credited with writing the phrase, To be or not to be, that is the question?" asked the teacher.
Little Pham Lam Nguyen at the front of the class called out, "Shakespeare".
"Well done!" said the teacher, "You can have Monday off."
"No thank you Miss. I am of Vietnamese origin and it is in our culture to study as hard as we can, so I will be here on Monday studying hard." said Little Pham Lam Nguyen.
"Well okay," said the teacher. The next quote is, "I had a dream!"
Little Fri Sum Kat also at the front yelled out "I bereiva it was Martin Ruther King!"
"Well done!" said the teacher. 'You can have Monday off"
"No thanka you miss I am of Chinese oligin and we also do not take time offa school. Education is evelything to us, so I will be in on Monday studying hard too." said little Fri Sum Kat.
"Okay," said the teacher. Then she heard a voice from the back of the classroom,
"f**king Immigrants!"
"Who said that?" yelled the teacher in an angry tone.
"Donald Trump!" yelled little Johnny. "See ya Tuesday!!..

Well what can we do about it? force mrs may to get a f**king shift on? the only ones holding the job up are remainers in denial
i don't know how Cameron ran the last government, but it sounds to me like it was a complete arsehole of a job, this is what happens when you have effectively a spiv in the top job, so clearly we're going to have to sort the superficial workings of government out before dealing with the eu
Brexit has clearly opened the pandora's box to how useless whitehall really is, this is the boot they have needed for decades, they're all on holiday or something untill next week so i'll assume the wheels will start moving then big time

Cameron did an excellent job a pm, best pm in my lifetime that's for sure, sorted out the mess when he took over and got the huge deficit down/got the economy growing again!

the only mistake he made was allowing us to vote on EU membership, too many people voted for entirely the wrong reasons
