Trying to spot the insult.

My question would be IF another vote went to the people and leave won the vote again, what would remainers do then ?

Would they then get onboard and get behind supporting a complete exit or would they stand down in politics
I don't think anyone wants a BRINO so it would have to be the same vote again but an added NO DEAL option.

As a devout leave voter, and I don't hide my choice at all I would go with a no deal vote even more so now

My daughter voted remain , she wasn't 100 percent with her choice but still thinks it is better to stay in and I think that is an age related choice which I fully understand

Something needs to get sorted as it's the uncertainty that is causing a problem , not Brexit .

That's a tad harsh.
I don't view you as an idiot, merely someone with a different point of view on our continued membership of the EU.

Also as another someone who's English isn't that good because to be correct the pic should say "Sarcasm: the ability to insult idiots without them realising it".

Can a poor remainer get an answer to the very simple question on bargaining power and trade deals?

Will we or will we not get worse deals by going it alone?

Replies could start like this:

• yes, what you have said makes sense, we will get worse deals, but f* business, like Boris said - we need to Brexit no matter the cost; or
• no, you're wrong, smaller countries get good trade deals all the time; just look at [INSERT ACTUAL EXAMPLE] and the US/China - they didn't get worse terms than the EU, so why worry? or
• no, you're wrong: other smaller countries do get worse deal, but we will be unique in getting a better one because [INSERT CREDIBLE EXPLANATION; HAVING WON TWO WORLD WARS DOESN'T COUNT]

I would have expected to be blown away by the detail and depth of answers from Brexiters who have clearly a well-informed opinion on these points. Yet it's not been the case. Mmm, wonder why???

You're not very good at this sarcasm lark are you?

You'll probably be told that they've answered it all before & aren't going to go into it again.

By Jove! I must have missed such enlightening explanations - silly me... Would it be too much to ask to be pointed to the pages where such revealing answers were provided? I do not recall them, nor can I seem to find them.

If I was to hazard a guess, I'd say worse.
Although, considering China has a free trade deal with little Switzerland and the EU doesn't, who is in the more advantageous position at the moment?
The ability to strike tailored trade deals free from the concerns of other countries parochial interests should not be underestimated.
