I don't have any "gloom" over Brexit! I don't sit shedding tears into my coffee. I recognise the reality of where we are, despite believing it was a very stupid thing to do and one which was handled in a totally inappropriate way. My efforts are 100% positive. If that means getting people to realise what a mistake it was, then that's a positive step towards correcting it. So positivity is situation dependent.

Again you are way off the mark, where has anyone stated this forum is for UK residents only? Or have I missed something? It doesn’t bother me if people disagree with my opinion, that is what discussion forums are all about. Maybe you should take your own advice.

Completely agree. Everything the bloke says is negative and confrontational. Turns up and picks arguments with posters. I don’t care if I agree or don’t with people in here but to constantly argue is quite depressing. Not Palace and not even in England any arguing is just with a troll. It's like me going on the Brighton forum and talking about politics. Why would I unless I was a total dick?

If that means getting people to realise what a mistake it was, then that's a positive step towards correcting it. So, here’s the thing. You could be right about Brexit and any potential damage. You could, however, be wrong. That it was a mistake is your opinion and, for a variety of reasons, the true impact may not be seen for a number of years. To me, both sides were handled badly, both sides made mistakes and the vote should never really have happened. Cameron was probably one of our worst ever PM’s. But here’s a genuine question and I accept it’s rhetorical. If the EU decided to set up an EU Army, with ships, troops, planes etc from every member state what would your reaction be? Would you support, accept and be in favour of this, as a natural direction of travel for what was a trading block? This is not a loaded question at all - I don’t trust the EU and I do not trust their long term motives. (But I wouldn’t have called a referendum if I was Cameron and Johnson is hardly a pillar of the community)!

Blimey even the BBC acknowledges that the NHS got the £350m (Brexit Intervention).
One more point |

A bit like your trade deals, either non-existent or spectacularly useless. A trade deal is supposed to increase trade, not reduce it.

A trade deal is supposed to increase trade, not reduce it. Which is another problem with Brexit. People who wanted us to remain spent years asking where the £350m was, years before we’d even left - which always make me laugh. The whole thing was a joke from pretty much every angle and every argument was and is tailored to suit whatever argument and whatever side/agenda someone wants to pose at that particular moment in time.

I’m still interested in the answer to this question from someone that loves the EU and thinks anyone that voted leave is clearly the uneducated spawn of the devil :- I do accept it’s rhetorical. If the EU decided to set up an EU Army, with ships, troops, planes etc from every member state what would your reaction be? Would you support, accept and be in favour of this, as a natural direction of travel for what was a trading block? (With, for some weird reason, it’s own flag). Personally I don’t trust the EU and I do not trust their long term motives. (But it’s fair to say I wouldn’t have called a referendum if I was Cameron and I accept that Johnson is hardly a pillar of the community)!
