Aw, don't flounce off Goldie. Fair cop on the 'kid with fingers' stuff, I apologise for that. I've tried to post a lot of facts, not speculation, about the state we are in and have got nothing but a 'well, you're a whinger you would say that' kind of response, no attempt to respond with facts of your own. It's difficult to hold a reasoned debate on that basis. You say every one on both sides of the campaign said we would have to leave the single market, I show how many Brexit campaigners said we should stay in the Single Market. You said they were fringe players and don't count (the campaign managers and founders, Boris and Farage?) I show what is happening in in the economy, you compare it to a lady's cat up a tree. No matter, I'm enjoying it.
I've always said the only coherent argument for Brexit is the sovereignty one (even though I couldn't care less about it personally). The rest is just bullshit, we will not be better off economically out of the EU, the question is how much worse off we will be and for how long, if immigration falls it will be because the economy is in down turn, government policy has never controlled it. As always those at the bottom of the economic heap will suffer most. It all seems a rather high price to pay for theoretically 'taking back control' to me.
Ps my life is rather good thanks, I am dissatisfied with my government is all. As a contrarian I would doubtless be unsarisfied with any government. But nice flip of a point I made several times early in this thread, that many (not all) Brexit voters thought it was going to change their lives for the better. I wonder what they think now. Though obviously it's embarrassing to admit making a mistake.
