Can we please just encourage and house millions of better educated than our young post graduates from the Mediterranean countries and see how all these remainers still like the EU. See how much they love it and how ‘‘European and not/before British’’ they feel smugly then. The self interest should tell you.

He typifies the establishment elite politician, Public school educated and firmly in the political bubble, so does not live in the real world, does not have any concept or empathy and understanding of ordinary life, handed power of our nation through a safe tory seat.

Is he someone that you feel represents you?


I feel he represents me more than David Lammy or Diane Abbott who are both in safe Labour seats. I don’t feel my problems or concerns would be of any interest to them at all.
OK he was given a winning ticket at birth but I certainly don’t resent him for it. John Major and Margaret Thatcher didn’t come from privileged backgrounds - did they represent you?

Sorry, Soundbyte Shirley. I should we call you Pointless Pu55y?

The problems are there for people. They won’t go away. They’ll only get worse and worse. No doubt partly why you p1ssed off.

Not at all, as I said I took advantage of freedom of movement and the fact my company wouldn't exist were it not for being in the EU. Either way I don't have an insular, negative life perspective

The concept of “punching up” is very convenient for those who would vilify others for daring to express an opinion with which they disagree. Jacob Rees Mogg went to Eton so it’s perfectly acceptable to criticise everything about him and his views? What should he do? Give everything away, move to Croydon and become a bus driver? Then get moaned at for not being “authentic”.
He’s not a man of the people. OK, who are these people? A Cornish shopkeeper? A Norwich Policeman? A teacher in Yorkshire? An unemployed steelworker?

Forget entirely where he was educated if you like; a man who’s position changes from ‘this deal would turn us into a slave state’ to ‘I support the deal’ all in the space of a few weeks, is not somebody I can ever support.

What’s more surprising is the willingness of Brexiters to defend him, just because he’s on their ‘side’. Surely any politician who goes back on themselves so obviously is worthy of criticism?

I never particularly liked JRM, but I thought he was at the very least principled. Even that has turned out to be untrue.

Obviously said in jest but interestingly here is a link to its rankings.....I imagine there is only one in Hull.

Jest? How dare you.

And also how can you possibly confuse Addiscombe with New Addington.

This is exactly the point

For some reason we are being driven towards Brexit by the people who have the most to gain from it. That is because they compete at the lowest pay levels with EU immigrants

So the least well educated and least fiscally beneficial people to the country are making our choices for us. Now what could possibly go wrong with that!

That relatively minority group should instead have been given proper supports to have fulfilling roles but instead we take away practical training opportunities and destroy the industries most likely to offer them jobs. That is what should have been addressed, not competition from the EU. The EU competition will only be replaced by similar competition from Africa and South America anyway.

Like Corbyn whose stance on Europe has been rock steady. He’s a politician; they’re all as bad as each other.

That's a bit unfair as Corbyn's position on Europe hasn't changed for at least a week

According to the Pussy it is the wealthy and privileged in the form of his nemesis Jacob Rees-Mogg who are driving Brexit onwards

It is very like the French Revolution or Mao Mao in that.

The masses enforce the change, driven on from the elite that has huge wealth to achieve and the ability to influence.

Not necessarily in the long term interests of the masses but as a group it is not highly educated in game theory.
