    The world isn't as black & white as you want us to believe.


    That's why trying to address a complex problem with a simple answer doesn't work.


    Don't like it....Just walk away?

    As far as I’m aware I’m not trying to get you to believe anything. Unlike yourself who wants us to believe that the UK’s transformation from being the sick man of Europe is down to our EU/EEC membership.
    My decision to leave was not based on our membership being a problem per se but one where I made a judgment on what was in the best interests of our country’s future.
    It is remarkable how many Remainers love to guess on the motivations of Leave voters and then get it so spectacularly wrong. Usually because they’re trying to append a negative slant to those motivations in an effort to assuage their anger at their world view not being shared by the majority.

    Maybe because when we attempt to understand your motivation & take the time to ask you about it, we get the reply "Sorry, don't do lists" (post#3125)


    Seems you'd rather just accuse others of negativity & myopia.

    Aww diddums, did the nasty leave voter not give you a list? :)
    I must have given my reasons for voting Leave a dozen times on this thread, if you’re that interested have a butchers yourself.
    The arguments either way are out there, it’s a judgment call.
    The current Governor of the BOE is a Remainer and a previous one is an avowed leaver, two different people, two different viewpoints. Simple really.

    So, we should leave - is that what you're saying?

    I except that the damage is done. Leaving with a deal will be the best course of action.
    There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.

    I wouldn't say funny but it was an interesting watch.
    The contrast between EU politicians and civil servants (relentlessly on top of their brief, united, competent) and the collective of bungling nincompoops on our side couldn't be starker.
    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.

    My kids resort to insults when they know they haven't got an intelligent answer too.
