I’ve been keeping an eye on this thread, not being too surprised that it seems to be dominated by our Remain members.
I’m rather surprised that @Bomber_Harris, our residents non farmer who so obviously thinks the rest of us are well beneath him (proved by the disgustingly offensive comment he has at the bottom of every post he makes!) was beaten into starting yet another cocky Brexit thread.
I’d like to ask him and the rest of the Remainers a serious question or three:
When you voted for Remain, did you honestly do so because you like the EU?
Or because you were frightened of change?
Or that you have so little confidence that the U.K. could take back control of its destiny?
Yes, we all know what a total cock-up our glorious politicians have made on the subject. But I’d ask you all to reflect whether in fact you personally really voted FOR Remain (I.e. the EU) rather than AGAINST Leave?
This is mostly why whichever party in power gets elected - Against the loser rather than for the winner.
IMO those that voted for Leave, truly voted against the EU (and ironically the future changes it was heading towards).
Also Ironically, I believe that most of those that voted for Remain, did so because they were frightened, even terrified of TOO MUCH change that leaving would entail.
That’s understandable. But IMO not only such a shame, but a total lack of confidence in our own country!

As a remainer i voted because i like being part of Europe, have benefited from FOM business wise, enjoyed all the euro sport championships, was looking forward to retirement in the South of France, witnessed a lot of EU money (yes i know we chip in) being directed to communities that would never have benefited from a UK gov , loved the success of Nissan and the wealth it brought to the North East and so on.
I have no fear of change, i am wise enough to profit from it and my business is growing because of the fear and will continue to thrive. However i doubt the average joe will profit from brexit.
I have rattled on elswhere on here that my lack of faith is not in the country or the people its in the absolute shower of s**t that sit in the both houses, they will be the reason brexit will fail and the current position demonstrates that more than any words i could write. The fact is the EU is probably a safer pair of hands.

ditto what @Yacker said although I didn't vote Remain, I didn't vote at all. I was in Trinidad at the time for a funeral but I could have made the effort to vote but to be honest I didn't bother because I thought Remain were going to win comfortably. I'm certain tens of thousands acted the same. The Remain vote was less motivated than the Leave vote imo. Those that voted Leave did so with a passion and fervour, in many cases almost religiously. For Remain voters it just seemed the sensible thing to do to remain inside the tent p!ssing out rather be outside and getting drenched in a hurricane of p!ss

I didn’t realize that once we leave all sport will stop! And never thought that we would be stuck on this tiny island as we would not be allowed to move around the world like we have done for years before the eu was invented,silly me
And only yesterday we had another remainer on here saying he was changing nationality so he could leave the country
My goodness didnt realise we would miss out on the eurovision song contest as well, you are really dredging the project fear barrel now, we participated before the eu was ever heard of, we will never be excluded from euro sport due to one factor MONEY

My apologies for interrupting the Honourable member but there was a factual error in your opening remarks, which I'm sure was done inadvertently, and I mean that most sincerely, but there was a factual error
the Honourable member said there was a sticker affixed to the windscreen of Speaker Bercow's car. That sticker, on the subject of Brexit, happens to be affixed to, or in the windscreen of, his wife's car...yes... and I'm sure the Honorable member isn't suggesting for one moment that a wife is somehow the property or CHATTEL of her husband
she is entitled to her own views
that sticker is not his and that's the end of it

Surely it does depend where the car was parked at the time?
I think you will find our exclusion will be due to not being in Europe.
