Maybe he's just smarter than people who voted to leave the EU to punish the Scots for a domestic UK government policy?

To be clear I was lashing out at everyone who was happy to see the continuance of the inequitable funding arrangements in our Union.
To be honest though I derived the biggest pleasure in seeing how the referendum result annoyed middle class metropolitan English people. It’s been a joy to behold.

Our destiny is in these characters hands Boris here we come.

Sixty-three per cent of members said they would be prepared to accept Scottish independence to get Brexit, while 59 per cent said the same about a united Ireland. Just 29 and 28 per cent were opposed, respectively.

“Significant damage” to the UK economy was also no deterrent, with 61 per cent in favour and 29 per cent opposed. Some 54 per cent said the Tory party’s complete destruction would still be a price worth paying for Brexit

It's horrifying isn't it? The only thing that'd get a majority against Brexit was the a Corbyn government.
Happy to destroy the party, union and economy, as long as Corbyn doesn't make them pay their way.

And that's why the country is doomed. You seem happy to trash the economy to upset the middle class - some of the people least likely to be affected by the fall out.

We have morons who think this is going to give them cheap houses:(
People complain about immigration in Britain, the fact is we do not have enough, just look at the facts, the data, the wealth they have brought in, work ethic, values.

I sometimes want Brexit to happen, just to give them what they think they will get

I don’t think our economy will be trashed, although it might be useful if you could define specifically what a trashed U.K. economy looks like.

Anything that reduces the quality of life further for the poor, in this case, since you seem to be doing thisbto champion the poor.

We've already lost most of our car industry over this, we still face losing our banking industry and most other industry. We're going to have to pay for everything we split the bill with the EU over.

Is there a level of damage you wouldn't be willing to see in order to give the establishment a bloody nose? I mean, where would you draw the line?

Watched a bit of the 'debate' yesterday.
Seems there's a change of tone with Boris.
Previously proclaimed to be perfectly happy with no deal.

Yesterday:

"I do not want a “disorderly” no-deal Brexit"

"We are going to make sure that we come out on terms that protect the UK and protect the EU as well.”

:think:

I got the impression none of them would do a no deal Brexit - maybe Javid?

I also got the impression that none of them had a viable plan.

We are stuffed.

I know it’s a cliche but these guys really were shuffling the chairs on The Titanic.

Define specifically:


30 years of being poorer that we are now, inside the EU (according to the Brexit Party)


It is amusing to see you're still falsely implying Churchill was anti-EU

The job isn't finished. The BOE still invests the proceeds of it's QE holding to maintain a constant scale. Only the Fed has attempted to start to unwind it's balance sheet. ECB may well go further due to a lack of inflation in the Eurozone.
