He did say however that Brexiteers should stop telling Remoaners "you lost, get over it"
MSE brexiteers, take notice.

No I don't believe they did show bias, I believe they reacted to what was put in front of them. I don't believe they would play russian roulette with the economy like Johnson or Mogg are with their continued project fear.

Your bias will of course influence your interpretation of their behaviour.



You're assuming too much about what foreigners are doing and too much about how foreigners will react to it. You're probably sick of people saying you're a racist xenophobe, but maybe stop acting like one.

The EU is democratic, you must stop believing the known liar Nigel Farage and his mates whose only purpose has been to con you out of the benefits of EU membership. Hook, line, sinker.

I really hope this sinks in.

Oh dear, oh dear...

Sorry but they do know.
You know when you hand your passport over at check-in for your flight?

(It works at ferry ports etc. too. Mine was taken and checked at Hull some weeks ago when I went via Zeebrugge.)

If they did know then why are the net migration figures just estimates?

"I've had enough of being a Remoaner!' New Brexiteer caller's CONFESSION to Nigel Farage

Boris's speech seems to have worked on one person at least.

The caller admitted it was "nice" to abandon the mentality there would be no alternative to the UK being a member of the European Union.
He said: "I’ve had enough of being a Remoaner.

It's such a shame that the speech which convinced him was complete garbage.

Did anyone think Boris made any good points?

I thought this series of speeches was going to put meat on the bone?
What we got instead is the same old rehashing of pre-referendum platitudes.

Did anyone actually expect anything from Johnson's speech apart from a bit of bluster?

I find it embarrassing that we are nearly half way through the Article 50 process and the government still seems to have no realistic idea of what they want to be the endpoint of negotiations.

Not that I think the opposition offers any clarity on Brexit either.

Acknowledging the UKs long standing diffidence to the EU project is not racist or xenophobic, more a statement of fact. You probably knew that but such was your desperation to use the R bomb without foundation you did it anyway. Have you heard of the concept of civilised discourse?
