Nothing about the Brexit narrative has turned out to be true, so why should we believe you?

Because everything Tromking says is true & everything anyone else says is conjecture. Don't ask for explanations......it just is.

It's all a question of perspective.

Compared with the consequences of, say, a Labour government, or the Climate Change Act, Brexit is wholly trivial. A million Iraqis won't die of Brexit, for example.

Again a tad unfair, it’s the list thing again isn’t it?
I like to think I have informed opinions which I use to make judgment calls. You on the hand think that the success of western capitalism is primarily down to Brussels.

I have said that the success of Western Capitalism AND the membership of the EU have both contributed to the continuing success of the British economy.


The "list thing" was an attempt to get you to reveal where these "informed opinions" have come from. (maybe along the lines of {and I paraphrase here} "I haven't seen the documentary but that's not going to stop me commenting on it anyway")

So you think some Norway type deal would 'tank the economy', but a no deal brexit would be fine? Alrighty...

Where did I say a no deal Brexit would be fine? (You always did like to make things up.)


I would have been happy leaving the EU (despite voting Remain) - that is, leaving the Single Market and leaving the Customs Union "IF" :-

1)we had the promised Free Trade Deal in place with the EU (Including some sort of equivalence for The City)

2)and all existing EU trade deals with other countries had been replicated (as was also promised)

Since this is no longer the most likely outcome and we are likely to end up as a rule taking vassal state (aka as the Norway Model) that is much worse off, and is the worst of all worlds, then I still would prefer to Remain.....

Welcome back stranger! I am slightly torn for the reasons you give. I'm voting Labour though and am one of the 70-80% of members who will be voicing their views to force Corbyn towards a 'Peoples Vote'. I'm hoping Labour will be unable to do a deal with the tories for the reasons I gave in a post yesterday and the party will then move towards a Peoples Vote on the basis that May's version and the 'no deal' version of brexit are unacceptable.

Surely, the best way to put pressure on Corbyn is for remainers to give him a bloody nose in 2 weeks at the EU elections?

Even Alastair Campbell was struggling to say he'd vote Labour I noticed....


Vote Green!

Vote Green!

That splits the remain vote.
Vote tactically which in most of the country means Lib Dem.

I commented on a tiny part of the documentary I had seen and caveated that by saying I hadn’t watched the rest.
