OMFG, I can't believe you're actually deluded enough to think we can all 'agree to disagree' on this.

Unless you're planning on upping your game and actually entering into discussions it's going to be very quiet.

Even then this is going to end very badly.

Welcome welcome ......Smile

Ok, there are no rules as such here, but I thought it nice if we just chilled out a bit and got to know each other a bit better. It's always the same people on these threads so let's try & get on with each other, ( I'm actually very lovely Grin )
We can still have our heated debates, but without the silly digs, it's worth a try at least? & if it doesn't work at least we got pissed trying Grin

It's refreshing to see a leave voter admit that it's not all unicorns after all.
Maybe after you've all had a few shandies, one of you will actually admit the tanking pound has a downside too.

Get your digs in early, surfer.

But seriously, if there was a pub called The Brexit Arms, I would avoid it like the plague. Round my way it would be full of retired golf club types in blazers, who live in bungalows with rows of begonias bordering their manicured lawns and turn up at the polling station in their big purple and yellow rosettes.

Don't mention that to the landlady noeuf, you'll be barred because that was the sole reason for her vote

Of course it's not all unicorns , it's really irritating to be talked to as if I'm some simpleton. For me, staying in Europe was a worse long term prospect than leaving. Neither was rosy. I'm happy to stay and chat but if the bloody 'you're all racist thickos' comments start up I'm off.

Ok I withdraw all my comments because they are in the wrong tone and I think the brexit arms if it has nothing else has Tone. So I'm sorry to any remainers I offended any remainers there. Cheers to you all too.

Oh well. I thought maybe it would be a different approach.

I have a demanding, intellectually rigorous job, a load of kids and a busy life. I come here for light relief and advice. So if this thread is going to be petty insults, I cba.

WW I suspect much vocal posturing and less actual deliberate scuppering. I think people will be safe guarding their own interests and not looking first to give the UK a crap deal.
