While I agree it will not happen, it could still be stopped.

Even as somebody that thinks it's going to happen, I think there is still a chance of remaining as EEA members. A slim chance sure, but a chance.

Also we've got to keep reminding them so they know that we were right when everything turns to gooseberry fool. We can happily dance around them singing "we were right, we were right" and they only look up with sad defeated eyes as we all slowly stave to death.

A very polite way of telling a lying liar who lies to stop lying.

I honestly don't understand how it's not a criminal office for a government official to knowingly lie like that. This isn't just a case of making a mistake or making a campaign promise that wasn't fulfilled, this is actual knowingly defrauding the public.


He should really lose his cabinet position for setting out a position that is in opposition to the party line. That kind of move is OK from the back benches but you can't hold one of the most important positions in government and oppose the PM's plan. I doubt May will be able do remove him though as it would cause instability in the party.

I was just talking with somebody that was a strong Leaver who is off to Spain next week to buy a load of cheap fags. He wasn't impressed when I said he better make the most of it as he will only be able to bring back 200 soon. :lol:

Friend of mine's parents are now shitting it because they retired to Spain and can't afford to move back to England if they're ever kicked out. They sold they've house in England bought a cheap one in Spain and pissed away their saving. Which is actually quite impressive when you think after moving to Spain they still had around 200k left.

I imagine a lot for people will be in that position and probably voted for it.

'Its happening, get over it'.

This is the main thing for me. We don't know what 'it' is, yet we're constantly told to get over it.

David Davis doesn't even know.

Would you be quite this passive if we were looking at an equally hard Corbyn Brexit?

Of course he wouldn't. He only sings when hes winning, its the Denster way.

I'm not passive and I don't wish to indulge in fantasy as we have never been looking at or will never likely be seeing a hard Corbyn exit.

If Corbyn had got elected - which he didn't he didn't even come close - I would have enjoyed watching him try and fulfil all his manifesto promises.

What was it you said about me always starting it?

It's these little comments you make that start a lot of stuff between you and I.

Basically because you're quite fond of little snipes like that but get all prissy when you're on the receiving end of them.


Thank god you don't like or cause confrontation though. God forbid.

So you agree with the current direction Brexit is taking?

That's irrelevant, whatever is done is fine with Denster as long as it is the Tories doing it.

It's happening. I didn't want it to but it is. I hope we get a good deal out of the negotiations. Part of me is genuinely interested in how it will pan out.

I don't buy into the doom and gloom merchants forecasts and I actually don't think things will be hugely different for most of us.
I'm willing to give it a go and see what
happens. I have a good job that I enjoy and am in a good position financially so im not unduly concerned for myself if I'm honest.

But we're a quarter of the way through the exit process and literally nothing has been sorted. I wish I had your optimism. This process needs the very best minds in Britain in order to make it a success, we almost certainly don't have them.

Boris probably wouldn't want more restrictive abortion laws. Or at least not for his mistresses.

Everyone involved with that bus should be up in criminal charges for fraud to be honest.
