... because they are being priced out by Greedy British house owners.... who love seeing their house prices rise. (let's face it: house owners never cheer when the house prices crash)

... because they are too busy buying the latest gadgets and going to pubs and clubs and getting wasted.

House owners don't care which way prices go, if they go up they all go up and ditto if they go down. Once on the ladder you just move up or down with it. So that's that comment dealt with.

Buying gadgets, going to the pub, so what, that's ones choice, you don't need to do that.

Many do. As we see our own children struggle to gain a foothold.

The dumb thing about people jumping on how wrong they think these predictions are said to be, is that the predictions would have been based on Article 50 being invoked, which was what was claimed would happen.

Simply wrong. The Remainers really were warning of calamity to follow immediately on a Leave vote. Have you forgotten that aspect of Project Fear already?

Not because the economy will tank or not.
There are six billion people too many in the world.
They are destroying the world through over consumption of scarce resources.

Like the people on the life boats from the Titanic, we have to make the hard decision of not letting those drowning in the freezing water into the boat, because we will all drown.

In the end, there is no alternative but to cleanse the world of the billions, so we need to decide which areas can be saved, create a force shield around them, and neutron bomb the rest.

Britain is racially diverse, so is ideal to be the Ark for the preservation of genetic diversity. We even have some Gurkhas.

So, use Mark Zuckerberg's $3 billion to hire scientists to create the Armageddon devices: Neutron bomb, Tsunami, Designer plague, etc. When the Pincher Holocaust subsides, we emerge from Great Britain to inherit the Earth.

That's why I voted LEAVE.

Wait till it's 16 billion, then look back and say I'm insane.

No need to wait, you are clrealy insane. (1) Have you ever thought of entering politics?

For all those REMAINERS, the experts have just admitted there was no economic decline in the last three months as the experts predicted. Wrong!

Now they say growth will be weaker next year. This is a forecast from the very same experts!

Who do you believe now?

The fact that a recession is defined as 6 months of GDP decline and is measured in arrears will be lost on you, no doubt. It'd be pretty hard to measure a recession when its been 3 months since the vote.
But carry on with your tub-thumping- you're single-handily managing to confirm a lot of suspicions about Leave voters.....

Well the reality is that things did happen immediately after even if not the more extreme suggestions. Easily forgotten now as markets have recovered even if sterling hasn't but the days after were a bit of rollercoaster.

At least I have a clear BREXIT strategy, unlike when they went into IRAQ, and in fact, now.

To preserve more species, beyond humanity, we should also start importing more breeding pairs of various fauna. Create a Safari Park in Cornwall. Let's call it The Ark.

The Eden Project fits in the plan really well, lets put more money towards it.

Have you noticed all these space probes committing suicide by crashing into comets and stuff? We just need to divert a comet or asteroid with the right mass, so it hits earth, and instant Tsunami, aka The Flood. Solar sail and ion drive technology needed. Lottery funding? It's for a good cause: Save The Planet, from humans.

The Green Party? Green like the Incredible Hulk.:D

The message from the Remainders was "Vote Remain, or the stockmarket will crash, there will be a prolonged recession and you will be punished with an extra 2p - 4p on income tax" not "Vote Remain or the stockmarket will plummet for half a day before rising to a near-record level".

Which, as I clearly said, was based on Article 50 being said to be invoked immediately (which many 'Leavers' are very quick to point out when it suits them). Do you really ignore any fact in a statement that doesn't suit your view?

By near-record level, of course you mean measuring international companies in a currency worth 10% less than a day or two previously, as well as ignoring the FTSE250 of smaller British companies.

Would that be the FTSE 250 which is currently equalling its alltime highest level?
