[PetallyTyrants]

Pleased
or
Pissed off (ok, 2 words)

(or if you don't like swearing you can vote displeased)

Extremely pissed off
The amount of money this process will cost will be staggering and for what. Worried about Scotland leaving the Union. Nicola's in a fool's paradise.

Fantastic. Proud to be British, Also, amused at all the remoaners who are determined for this to fail.

OMG - how did that happen - the whole 27 EU countries get 1.5 million of us and we get 3 million of them

The thing I really struggle to understand with the Brexiteers is the idea that everyone should sit in their own country and nobody is allowed to go anywhere else and we don't want anyone else here. It's a bit like the English Channel becoming the new Berlin Wall/Iron Curtain. No you are not allowed to work or study overseas, we don't like that. No, you are not allowed to come and work in the UK if you are not British.

?

And I hate to break it to you, but David Davis has said that EU migration is unlikely to get less after Brexit because we still need those workers. So I'm not sure what this is all for anyway.

I'm sure there will be plenty of user names popping up on this thread expressing their glee. They're probably all the same people Probably Farage dressed in a silk housecoat laughing manically. Dance puppets dance!

Knickers - erm, this was the name allocated to me upon joining. IF I knew how to change, I would. You must remember, i'm an uneducated, racist Little Englander.

I don't think the so-called Remoaners are determined to make this fail; it will do that all by itself.

Years and years (possibly a decade) of our civil servants negotiating individual deals only to get back to a worse position than we were in before

Bloody disaster.

Also proud to be British, but bloody ashamed of our arrogant behaviour currently.

Its honestly fairly easy to change names

I managed and i am a complete technophobe

I think mumsnet has a question page with it on

Worried

DH colleagues leaving UK and funding drying up.

Actually what David Davis said was that EU migration won't necessarily always stay down after Brexit. He made the point that some industries need migration and that levels of migration will go up as well as down at certain points after Brexit. But it will be controlled migration to target shortages and needs rather than generalised unskilled labour. And he was talking about rides at some point in the future after initial falls.

Even in Homeland the sock puppets have nicknames.

Depressed

Both DH and I are educated at postgrad level. We voted leave.
Honestly the level of vitriol aimed at people because of the way they voted just makes me sad. But I suppose for some people it's easier to sling insults and accusations of stupidity then to actually concede that people are entitled to an alternative view.

Incrediblypissedoff

Also, amused at all the remoaners who are determined for this to fail.

Are the 'remoaners' going to do this with the power of their collective minds? Because if remoaners had that power, there would be no Brexit.

Or will failure be down to complex negotiation skills, a skeleton British civil service and a government that really hasn't the heart?

There's plenty of evidence of a correlation of education and remain. And yes, like all evidence, polling is limited in all kinds of ways, but the correlation is strong and it is what we have, rather than some hypothetical perfect evidence we don't actually have.

I agree entirely Soot. Its all gotten quite nasty. I didn't realise there were so many Clairvoyants on here either ?

SootSprite care to share why you think leaving is a good idea for the country as a whole ?

Honestly the level of vitriol aimed at people because of the way they voted just makes me sad.

If you are educated to post graduate level, you could perhaps give something more constructive than this?

Impress me with your wisdom of how this is going to work.

Pissed off

Displeased

What do Brexiteers expect? A pat on the back and a jolly good? It has divided the country. We are on the precipice of the break up of the united kingdom, a peace process in Northern Ireland hanging by a thread and an uncertain future. And for what? This is fucking shit, damn right it's got nasty. We have been sold a lie

So what

derxa - I was commenting on the reason why there might be an apparently higher number of people upset about A50 on Mumsnet than the rest of the country. Not offering any kind of general comment.

(It comes out of a discussion on the previous page).
