    Seriously, wtf? Do you have a mental disability? I genuinely wouldn't want to insult you if you do.

    I've stated my reasons for voting Out before, based on my own study of the subject albeit a few years ago, and the general failure of the Remain campaign to convince me otherwise. You, on the other hand, voted Out because you blame foreigners for your own failings in life.

    I see you don't understand an analogy.
    You really should study some basic english.

    So the Leave campaign paid for that bus to tour the country, and arranged numerous photo ops with Boris and Nige, in order to bump up the Remain vote? Just how ****ing stupid must they be in that case?

    A problem with this thread is that people try to oversimplify things, so that if you vote out, you have one set of attributes, and voting remain leaves you lumped with others.

    It betrays their limitations as the situation is more complex than that.

    It's not an analogy I'm struggling to understand.
    It's an idiot.

    It's far more logical than the version others keep bleating out.

    I think they've all agreed it was a mistake. It's just the remoaners that seem to need to try and rehash it and ignorantly lump Farage in. even though it was sod all to do with his campaign.

    I would like to think that Hull meant that this slogan was pretty much descredited long before the vote. The remain party should have been able to use that as ammunition, but failed to do so.

    The whole sorry saga was a mistake, from start to finish. On that we can agree.

    There were loads of reasons for voting In or Out. There are some extremely bright people who voted Out and some morons who voted Remain. However you split the population there will be some people on each side.

    However, if someone's one motive for voting Out was a dislike of foreigners, they are undoubtedly thick.

    Yep. I'd add that anyone that noticed it, would have been liable to have found the campaign untrustworthy, and voted for remain. I can't think of anyone that voted leave on the strength of that direct quote. I suspect people would consider the general principle that we could spend any money saved on our own projects.

    Good grief! How many times do you need to be told that we do not send £350million to the EU every week.

    True, voting remain can hurt far more foreigners. <ok>
