    You believe that all leavers are horrible people. What do you think that says about you?

    Boris Johnson has just called Theresa May 'deranged'. That's pretty horrible!

    Get you!
    How much influence do you think you have?

    Remainers were asked what they would do after the end of March 2019 by a poster. One choice was listen to Gina Miller. I posted what I would do.
    So to rephrase.

    If Britain leaves I don’t want Britain to rejoin. If you go, please stay gone.
    There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.

    For Johnson that's actually remarkably nice, and remarkably true.

    Again, it’s nowt to do with you.
    The U.K. electorate decides and can change their minds when ever they see fit.
    This ‘I don’t want those irksome Brits sullying my wonderful European project again’ narrative you’re propagating is childish and has more than a hint of Remoaner self loathing about it.
    Unfortunately for you, the big players on mainland Europe would sell their Granny’s to welcome the U.K. back to the fold, Macron said as much just this week.
    IMO, the most likely scenario now is a constitutional crisis in the autumn followed by a vote to remain shortly after. You could be stuck with us. :)

    He didn't actually. He said that the plans were deranged.

    As one of the British electorate he has exactly as much say as you. However if he gets the ability to vote in the EU he also has the ability to sway the government's that would have to agree to let us back in.

    I doubt most of Europe will want us back anyway.

    I'd be all for that. Will make it a lot easier for an independent Scotland to get to the EU without having to go through England and it's custom points.

    They not her plans then?

    Watching May on Marr.....she must know something the rest of us don't? She is sold on Chequers hook line and sinker, despite the opposition to it from the EU and in our parliament.....I'm wondering if the EU have tipped the wink and said she has a deal but we have to be seen to be negotiating hard until the final hour?

    You're not a poker player, I see.

    Never ever let the other players get even the slightest hint of what is really in your hand.
    ;)


    It's also strange to see that you hold TM in such high esteem that you presume the plans to be "hers" and not those of a variety of advisers, supposedly for and on behalf of the nation.
