    What a shame. You are such a fount of coherent knowledge too.

    very true : but I can only take the horse to water but I can't give it the brains to actually drink.

    All politicians on both sides of the debate said we were leaving the single market.

    Please provide evidence that ALL politicians said this.

    You've hit nail on head, no Government in Europe is going to vote to hamper it's own trade and damage itself, that's why UK-EU trade will carry on and there will be no damage. The transition will be unnoticeable in terms of trade.

    I hope you are right but the agreement required is between politicians not businesses or voters.

    The BBC Daily Politics have put together a video of every single major politician saying "a vote to Leave was a vote to Leave the single market.". Daniel Hannah was the exception.

    Cite the video then. The video you previously sited was of about 7 politicians, it was no means comprehensive of "every single major politician", for example May was not included, neither was Corbyn, or Sturgeon.

    So unless you have the evidence you are telling porkies

    Maybe you did (just like Daniel Hannan) however you must agree that the majority of people voted to take back control of immigration - which means we must leave the single market. If we want to control immigration - we have to leave the single market.

    There you go again making it up. Immigration was not on the ballot paper. I agree a proporortion o the 52% were concerned about immigration but the notion that the majority VOTED for it is untrue.

    Peace mate. I give up. However, you are clearly in the minority.

    That is a statement of someone who cannot prove the statement he made that ALL politicians said leave = leaving single market.

    How do you know if I am in a minority? I could be in a majority.

    I'm not actually called Toxic Toastie. Neither am I called ruggedtoast. It's a username I chose when setting up the account avatar.

    Toxic Toastie is a derogation of that username you choose to employ when you arent capable of forming a cogent rebuttal which doesn't resort to childish name calling, which is basically almost all the time.

    I appreciate the internet, along with pretty much everything else, is a mystery to you so I hope that helps to clear things up.

    By the way I don't hate my country either. Im just not very keen on small minded ignorant xenophobes. People are generally threatened by criticism of groups they consider themselves to be part of. Presumably it's not coincidental that you get so personally offended there in, but that's something you'll have to have a good look at yourself about.

    If you can fit in such introspective discourse inbetween your right wing meetings.
