    And that was one of the reasons I voted in. The rest were based around stability, economy and environment.

    Then you've got idea about how democracy in the UK came about to that in Europe I'd state.

    I don't follow, I'm afraid?

    It occurs to me that it is unlikely those who bemoan the bemoaning of the Remoaners will without moaning accept all the deals being cut between now, March and Brexit that will inevitably fall well short of the promises made

    Considering that many Brexiteers thought they were voting for anyone not born in the UK to be kicked out and no more immigrants to be allowed in I think you are absolutely correct! ;)

    I think you'll find most didn't. A common racist misconception by the remainers

    To back a positive approach to the UK becoming a sovereign nation with control over its own borders and politics and the abilty to make its own decisions, rather than continually moaning about how disastrous it will be when we exit the EU.
    Bottom line, for the remoaners to have confidence in their own country and not constantly bleating that its so weak and pathetic it can't manage without being told what to do by the EU.
    This is the thing I don't understand about the brexiteers....they place so much store in national sovereignty and 'control' without realising that almost everything we do now is moving towards the reduction of nationalism. The only way we can effectively police our borders is with the co-operation of our neighbours....who just so happen to be in the EU!

    in what way is everything we do now is moving towards a reduction of nationalism?

    give us some examples say from
    -russia
    -china
    -greece
    -S Africa
    -S Korea
    -Hungary

    Ah I see, you are making a distinction between those who voted remain, and those who voted remain AND are also being negative about the future (because of the result of the vote). But surely that applies to anything, you have to make the best of the situation you find yourself in.

    That is the definition of Remoaners. Those who voted to remain but are getting on with it, no problems with that.

    Of course Nige would have taken the defeat like a man and just got on with things.

    I voted to remain but I lost.
    So,
    Let's get on with it.
    The milk is spilt. The longer we live with uncertainty the more damage there will be.
    Uncertainty and indecision is the enemy of business.
    Every day decisions are being made by businessmen sitting in overseas offices that could hurt Britain.
    The sooner Britain is out the better.
    There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.

    I have never met any Remainer who suddenly changed their minds and think that Brexit is a rocking idea. However, I met so many Brexiters who say they didn't expect a lot of the stuff that is happening now and are deeply rethinking their vote.
    So I do want to challenge that the 1.9% who did this is perhaps no longer there.
    As for the rest of us, nearly HALF on the population, we have a responsibility to speak out loud and not let Brexit take us back to the middle ages.
    Scary things are happening right now. I'm not talking about the pound going down the toilet. Abolishing Human rights acts, listing foreigners, banning experts who don't have UK passports from giving advice (regardless how many PhD's they may have)...
    It's turning into Nazi germany here and you have the nerve to tell us to shut up?
