    ]The ECJ has been instrumental in protecting UK citizens from the UK governments worst excesses.

    Can you provide an example please. Just one will do.

    What is to protect the UK from the ECJ's worst excesses if we give into their demand that the ECJ (a political court, remembers) should have jurisdiction after we leave the EU.

    I do not deny the right to democratic referendums. But if most say that the moon is made of cheese does not mean that it really is.

    And even the dummiest people on earth will never say "the moon is made of cheese"

    So just imagine a person who suggest another person would ever say the moon was made of cheese lol

    Ladies and gentlemen,I give you 3,370 pages of Brexit debate in a nutshell. Nobody knows what will happen but we do know it will be bad. This isn't politics, this is a chronic psychological issue.


    Is this any different to insisting that everything will be rosy just because more people voted for it?


    No-one seems to be able to wait & see what actually happens. Mind you, when it does, there will no doubt be a lot of discussion on who can take credit/who is to blame (delete as necessary)

    There are groups who insist the world is flat. Not too different but just as stupid. If enough people join, does that make them right all of a sudden?

    Well at least the 14th century many well known philosophers, scientists believe the earth is flat. Also keep in mind the heliocentric theory introduced by Copernicus was immediately rejected by the Catholic Church, Christian scholars, papst.

    Who could say that the well known philosophers, Christian scholars, papst are stupid ?? Well a naive person might be ...

    But only when technology has developed, the satellite was invented that could take the picture of the earth the scientists, the people, the papst could see more evidence.

    Now regarding Brexit, come back again in this thread after January 31, after 23.00 GMT. You will find out that despite all unfounded scaremongers you arch remoaners will become losers again.

    I’m merely waiting patiently for the economic disaster that was supposed to be Brexit.

    I already know that I'm a loser. I haven't seen any winners yet though. Only people who think they are.

    I suggested further up the page that people should perhaps wait & see.


    But you seem to have a crystal ball. Hope you don't drop it.

    You're supposed to be waiting for the promised economic miracle.
