The Brexit thread.

By Brexiters, for Brexiters.

Remainers welcome, but gobshites & goadyfuckers are encouraged to take their business elsewhere.

I always said brexit was about social regression. Rather than sneering at orchestras why don’t you celebrate diversity?

JWIM · 04/04/2018 19:22

I disagree Hey that the UK will take further against the EU if we have BINO. The numbers for 'remain' are holding/increasing and that will support UK closer integration with the EU so BINO for ever, or, even EU member state again.

GhostofFrankGrimes · 04/04/2018 19:22

Britain sold off its self reliance in the 1980s.

@surferjet

If you haven’t got a clue why areas with high levels of immigrants voted remain why are you so sure my reasons are wrong?

Because you explained this (saying it was an easy explanation) by saying immigrants voted Remain in these areas to keep FOM so they could bring their relatives here. I told you that EU nationals couldn't vote in the referendum. I told you this repeatedly as you didn't seem to believe it (and still don't) and continued to say this was the reason in later posts. EU nationals could not vote, no matter now many times you say they could, they couldn't , this is why your reason to explain high immigration areas voting Remain is wrong.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 04/04/2018 19:24

Many of our orchestras have considerable numbers of forriners

Again with the 'forriners'.

You're not posting on your beloved leave.eu or BNP sites - the Leavers on here have never banged on about 'forriners', only the remoaners insist on doing so.

Why do you persist with this tired stereotype of 'what all leavers talk like/think'?

twofingerstoEverything · 04/04/2018 19:26

Again, why not look at some facts, like how much the UK economy benefits from creative industries? I'm sure someone will pop onto the thread to say silly remainers, it's not about money, but if the economy gets screwed, so does everyone else, except the very wealthy.

Heyduggeesflipflop · 04/04/2018 19:27

Jwim - we will have to agree to disagree. In my view it would take a distinct world event to shift our overall trajectory back towards the eu now. The political classes won’t touch the issue with a barge pole for the foreseeable future and it would take another referendum to precede our readmission.

As I say, that situation alone represents success.

KennDodd

That’s not actually what I said. Stop twisting things.
Go back & re-read exactly what I posted.
Then repost it again.

Heyduggeesflipflop · 04/04/2018 19:28

Creative industries... orchestras.

And you wonder why you lost the referendum!

GhostofFrankGrimes · 04/04/2018 19:28

Faith, why do you want us to see leavers on here as a true reflection of Brexit but dismiss the millions of other Brexit voters many of whom will have voted to curtail immigration or because they believed the leave Eu campaign? You want to airbrush the inconvenient truth.

KennDodd · 04/04/2018 19:29

Well at least it makes a change that the Leavers on here are admitting what really drove the Leave vote, immigration. They usually are all full of the 'immigration was nothing to do with it' rubbish.

CardinalSin · 04/04/2018 19:29

Sorry if it offends your delicate sensibilities Faith, but given that you are frequently snide, if not downright rude, I think I'll manage to survive your distress...

surferjet · 04/04/2018 19:30

How many people in this country give a fuck about orchestras?
Probably about 5%

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 04/04/2018 19:30

Brexiteers now say it’s not about money therefore obviously happy to throw the poor under a bus. Nice.

Those bad, meanie leavers just want to HURT THE POOR!!!!

Unlike us sainted remoaners who are SO VIRTUOUS!!!!

We care so much about 'the poor' - we rend our garments hourly to show just how much we CARE!!!!

GhostofFrankGrimes · 04/04/2018 19:32

Leavers happy to see anything burn that their deluded minds tells them is metropolitan, elitist, diverse. The latest enemy? Orchestras.

Heyduggeesflipflop · 04/04/2018 19:32

Kenndodd - for certain areas of the country immigration is a perfectly valid reason to Brexit. That the remain camp associated it with racism was a particularly cynical ploy.

GhostofFrankGrimes · 04/04/2018 19:34

No faith, leavers here appear too ignorant to do anything logically or organised.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 04/04/2018 19:34

I always said brexit was about social regression. Rather than sneering at orchestras why don’t you celebrate diversity?

I've always thought brexit showed up the supercilious snobbery prevalent in Britain.

Comments such as the above make me continue to think this.

gussyfinknottle · 04/04/2018 19:35

Still with the Us and Them , Faith. You want to make it work? Brilliant. We all want our country to succeed. But it is now your job, and the job of all Leavers, to make this work. You will not make it work by dismissing legitimate concerns as moaning. Is that what you do in real life? About non- Brexit stuff? I hope not.

GhostofFrankGrimes · 04/04/2018 19:37

If you’re happy to mock orchestras because y’know only posh folk enjoy it not flat capped patriots and happy to make the country poorer then its social regression.

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 04/04/2018 19:37

Faith, why do you want us to see leavers on here as a true reflection of Brexit but dismiss the millions of other Brexit voters many of whom will have voted to curtail immigration or because they believed the leave Eu campaign? You want to airbrush the inconvenient truth.

I just want you to see the Brexiters on here as what they are - Individual posters on MN who happened to vote Leave.

Your caricatures of 'what all Brexiters are like' are insulting.

Heyduggeesflipflop · 04/04/2018 19:38

Faith - don’t waste time on ghost of. She is bonkers as evidenced on other threads by her love of saint Jeremy despite his obvious little Semitic problem.

When she leaves college maybe her views will mature. Who knows?

GhostofFrankGrimes · 04/04/2018 19:38

KenDodd pointed out upthread that you dont have to look far to find racism associated with leave. Too big to airbrush out I’m afraid

KennDodd · 04/04/2018 19:40

@surferjet

This is what you wrote.

Well, that’s easy to explain.
Immigrants are more likely to vote remain to keep FOM.
Communities with relatively low levels of immigration will look at the communities with high levels & think ‘we don’t want that here’.

I told you immigrants couldn't vote and ask what immigrants you were taking about.

You said

immigrants with family in Europe.

I again pointed out they couldn't vote.

You came back asking why I was so sure your reasons (immigrants voting Remain) were wrong. I don't know how many different ways I can point out that they can't vote. Did you read the link I posted about who can and can't vote? Do you not believe it?

Ok so you didn't use the words ' immigrants want to bring family here' but that is most certainly the implication of the above post.

I ask again, why were you so convinced immigrants were to blame for the large Remain vote?

FaithHopeCharityDesperation · 04/04/2018 19:40

True dat Heydug.

She was fucking offensive on the deleted thread about Jezsus & the anti-semitism.
