It's the same avid Brexiteer Labour MPs as always. The party whip was to vote for it, what do you want Corbyn to do? This is dumb as strawberry float.

I'd just like to offer my apologies to anyone who I may have upset yesterday. I'm a tetchy gooseberry fool at the best of times and can get quite defensive (I'm trying to work on that). Walking away from the forum for the rest of the day seemed like the best option until I collected myself.

Believe it or not I'm as upset by all this as you are, more so for the fact that my vote help put us here. I wish I could go back and change that decision, I really do, but I can't. All I can do now is move forward and make the right decision looking ahead. Whatever that may be.

Cheers.

You seem to have a habit of exploding over things, it’s cool and I am sure everyone will forgive you, but if you feel yourself getting angry maybe take 30 minutes or so to calm down before going into attack mode?

The worst part is just how little input and influence we seem to be able to have as individuals now.

I wasnt trying to attack you personally yesterday, I'm sorry if it came across that way, it was general frustration at the Leave vote in general and the continued shut down of debate/criticism of anyone who voted leave that many leavers bring up when you point out how foolish there vote was and how they had no way of knowing what they actually voted for, since there was no pre-defined form of Brexit to vote for.

Unfortunately for every person like you who realises they fell for a pack of lies, there's two more who have doubled down on the Leave Kool-Aid.

Profits at UK pub chain JD Wetherspoon fell 19% in the six months to the end of January.

It blamed a rise in labour costs, interest payments, utility bills, repairs and depreciation for the fall.

Its chairman, Brexit supporter Tim Martin, who generally accompanies results announcements with his colourful opinions, expressed concern that Brexit would be reversed.

This, he said, would have "adverse economic consequences".

He blamed "the establishment" for a "barrage of negative economic forecasts".

Mr Martin is currently touring 100 of his 900 pubs, talking to punters about the merits of leaving the EU without a deal on 29 March.

The problem is a lot of other prominent brexiteers have made bets against Weatherspoons as they think it'll be hit by brexit so they're all making money off this news.
