Would it annoy you if I told you I voted for Brexit totally on a whim and that a glorious upshot of my winning and you losing, was that it has totally hacked off people like you?
On a scale of 1/10 (or is it 0/10?) how angry are you?

I actually think that's quite funny.

Sometimes, for my own amusement, when I come across someone hogging the middle lane on a motorway I sit in the outside lane next to them so when, eventually, they need to overtake someone they can't get out.

I think we might have a similar sense of humour.

They look very angry to me if the resulting suggestion that dangerous driving and a possible threat to life are really to be compared to what they think is humour.
Serious or not the very suggestion is perilous and shows very poor judgement.
Quite a few areas are prosecuting drivers for such actions and cite rule 264 of the Highway Code.

It also makes you shudder to think what else they do for their supposed amusement.

There’s no doubting the anger, I think the inference is the comparison between voting for Brexit on a whim and dangerous driving just for kicks.
I was of course being flippant, that said it has been illuminating to witness the almost complete unraveling of a part of our society who perhaps now realise that their vote is worth exactly the same as a left behind voter in a former pit village in the north of England. For some entitled posters on here, it’s been a chastening experience for them.

Typical Metropolitan Leftist completely unaware that in my provincial English market town on the edge of Dartmoor, the weather can be a tad changeable.

If someone is in the middle lane then someone else is perfectly entitled to use the outside lane to overtake even if they are only going at 0.01mph faster.

Possible threat to life - get over yourself and be careful you don't rip out a fingernail as you scrabble up moral mountain.

An almost complete unraveling of a part of our society? I've told you a million times about exaggerating.

You do realise that despite this ground up revolution the metropolitan elite remain the metropolitan elite and the bloke who still calls himself a miner 30 years after the pit shut is still a left behind voter?

Really? Leavers are always complaining about areas that are no go for whites etc, are you saying they are lying?

If there was a policy of integration then we wouldn't have concentrated areas. The problem was that people moved out as soon as a foreigner moved in, because they were scared it would drive prices down. I'm certainly not making that up.

No different to the Costa Brava.

There are some similarities between them.

Brits wanting to only have to experience British culture and not be offended by the cultures of foreigners.

What policy of integration do you have in mind?

I lived in Bradford for the first 40 years of my life, the son of Irish immigrants who lived in an area where other Irish and Italian immigrants lived. They eventually dispersed and integrated with the indigenous population.

I was there as a boy when the first wave of immigrants from East and West Pakistan arrived to work in the textile mills. They did what my parents did and moved into areas like Manningham where there was lots of cheap housing. The problem was that they made no attempt to integrate and largely remain in the same areas of the inner city. They have no wish to integrate and live in areas inhabited by the kuffar. There is no integration policy that would have made any difference to this.

And do you think that when a crowd of young second or third generation Asians surround you in the street and tell you to leave their area (as happened to me) that they enquire first whether you are a leaver or remainer?
