Something clearly you are not. If that's the level of debate that you wish to engage at. As adds no value to the discussion.0 -
You belittle the process with every post. With every strawman and ridiculous, repetitive accusation and assertion.
I didn't vote to leave anything. I left the UK for my own reasons. As I've stated countless times before, there are many reasons for acting beyond a like or dislike of the EU's policy towards freedom of movement.
Although I didn't know it at the time, not sharing an island with you was one of the advantages of leaving. Why I don't just go on ignoring your boring nonsense is a mystery.
you preach that a country of 65 million is mad to try to live in the wide world
you go to live in a country of only 27 million
you say you do that that for your 'own reasons'
I hold my views for my 'own reasons' and so do countless others.
the nature of a referendum on a single issue does involve some repetitive argument on both sides.0 -

Oh dear.
Resorting to insults in a debate.

It's all getting a bit nasty eh?
After what happened yesterday, I thought a bit of reflection, humility and humanity wouldn't go amiss, but alas....
I think I'll bow out of the debate (or what goes for it) and I'll see you all after the referendum. Bye! :wave:Don't blame me, I voted Remain.0 -

Oh dear indeed. Your post wasn't in good taste. Perhaps a better understanding of history will give you a better perspective.
Suggest you look up the meaning of debate. Far better to have an open mind than a closed one. Particularly one that's been spoon fed with a particular view of the world.
If you regard my comments as an insult. Then about time you grew up and learnt to have a thicker skin. As sounds as if you get agitated very easily. Particularly when people don't agree with you.0 -
Assuming Jo Cox was shot by a Neo Nazi I can't help but feel that this puts the Brexit campaign a long way back. People don't want to feel like they're aligned with a bunch of violent skinheads.
Frankly I find your 'assumption' to be one of the most pathetic and opportunistic pieces of drivel ever constructed.0 -
I think the plan is to make the entire referendum process so massively tedious and boring that nobody could ever bear to go through it again.
I think that no matter what the outcome is next week, everyone can all agree that we don't want this to happen again. Preferably ever again. I can't think of a more divisive and unpleasant process that doesn't involve taking arms.
We have already had "Project Fear".
Not to be outdone, now we have "Project McFear from our Scottish cousins !

It's weird isn't it. Leave campaign warn about an over dominant bigger brother of the EU; SNP warn of an over dominant bigger brother of Westminster...
...but they are different things. One is right and just, the other isn't :rotfl:0
