The grown ups are back in charge with just a few little-uns left squabbling in the red wendy house.

It’s all good for us winners !

It’s all good for us winners !

Any news on what it is you / we have won yet?

Boris Johnson is Foreign Secretary.

We’re all losers.

It’s all good for us winners !

There’s no winners here. Just people being smug despite having no reason to be

enjoy the recession and years of uncertainty

Can we park this thread for 5 years and then revive it so we can actually understand how it all panned out?

And now you’ve got to come up with some answers.

Free movement of people
Effect of trade tariffs on GDP
Workers rights
Restabilising inward investment

Or is it just boot the foreigners out?

I feel assured that everything will be alright.

The grown ups are back in charge

“It’s all good for us winners !”

You’ve won shit in a sock. Go on, put your hand in; feel your victory.

yep – well done indeed…

Google Pyrrhic Victory, you gloating cockwomble. 😉

2/10, poor trolling attempt is too obvious a trolling attempt.

Out of five guys I know who openly voted leave, one is seriously regretting it now because he’s realised his job is based on EU funding (he’s a microbiolgy researcher with a PHD! FFS he should have engaged brain). Three are being incredibly smug but can’t give a valid reason why they voted leave, not one, but are adamant it was the right call.
The other has put some good arguements across and i respect his personal decision, if not the outcome of his action.
So my incredibly small sample gives 20% validity, 20% outright stupitiy and 60% non-sensical smug bellends

…and in other news, I’ve just put the phone down on the third overseas agent who has called me this week to express his shock at a decision he feels must have been driven by ignorance and xenopohobia, and seeking assurance that our trading relationship won’t change.

Two people told me this week that they voted for Brexit “as a protest” but never thought it would actually happen. Idiots.

Can you imagine the sense of utter desperation felt by Rab and Mary Doll, after two weeks of running around whinging about how the EU vote meant there should be another indyref, as the new prime minister stood at the lectern in Downing Street and said:

The full title of my party is the Conservative and Unionist party… and that word unionist is very important to me. It means we believe in the union, the precious, precious bond between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

😆

There’s no winners here.

Are you sure?

What about all the rich folk who could afford to buy loads of shares when the market crashed?

or all the fat cat lawyers who will make a fortune out of changing UK legislation?

Some people will do exceptionally well out of Brexit.

Interesting take on will v capability.

I’m waiting for enough of the smarter leavers to realise their mistake and start crying for a reversal. How I’ll laugh.
The smug leavers must remember that the margin was so narrow that all the promises cannot be delivered and that the promises were so ridiculous that they cannot be delivered either.
Eventually the leavers will wake up and realise what they have done.
So come on, stop prissyarsing around and get the process started.

And the Darwin award goes to… 😆

Ah yes, great to see a traditional stand for Conservative & Unionist National Togetherness 😉

I don’t think Theresa can actually force Scotland to respect that “precious, precious bond” – not without deploying some precious, precious troops anyway.

Ian Hislop wetting his pants ! Brexit, the gift that keeps on giving. Can we have some film of Bob Geldof taking a stroll through a fishing port please?

Im crying, but only at your naivety

“microbiolgy researcher”

I’m sure plenty of non EU nations do micro biology research and I see no reason why post exit UK wouldn’t.

@wwaswad: Yup. Sums it up.

The smug leavers must remember that the margin was so narrow that all the promises cannot be delivered and that the promises were so ridiculous that they cannot be delivered either.

What I’ve seen so far has been Leavers blaming Remainers for sabotaging Brexit. 🙄

I suspect that will only continue – they had a fantastical glorious independent future in mind, with no immigration, a soaring pound, and £350 million a week to spend multiple times over.

So any post-referendum reality that starts to look less like that Brexit utopia and more like the warnings of Remain’s “Project Fear” will be squarely blamed on the bitter Remain voters trying to sabotage things.

its about funding and collaboration with the EU though, by far our biggest imternational collaborator

Well the outcome of Brexit is that I’ve realised that I’m a much colder, harder bastard than I realised. Haven’t talked to my oldest friend in three weeks because she’s an ignorant idiot, not that I hate her for being a brexiter – I just can’t be bothered wasting my time by spending it with a cretin.

“So any post-referendum reality that starts to look less like that Brexit utopia and more like the warnings of Remain’s “Project Fear” will be squarely blamed on the bitter Remain voters trying to sabotage things.”

That’s exactly what May has avoided with her choice of Boris, Davis etc.

Five topics started in the last 2 years OP?

Get back to the Daily Mail where you belong.

I got the chance to tell my MIL that she is a little bit simple. Brexit was an excellent excuse and one of the only upsides I can see at this stage.

I really am curious what the Exitards think they have won though…

Some reasonable text from a BBC HYS :
“The Experts wanted to remain, we are leaving and to leave we need the experts to sort out the mess the uninformed got us in to, like it of not the remain camp need to make Brexit work as the leave camp was made of those uninformed and not experienced enough to move forward – backward thinking (talking as a whole not the one or two gems in the leave camp, they can have a hand in it as well)”

Essentially this backs up the capacity article above.

Leave does not have the capacity to execute – those that do are not willed to do so.

Leave – “Go on get on with it we won!”
Stay – ” Get on with precisely what ?”
……………………………………..

That’s exactly what May has avoided with her choice of Boris, Davis etc.

Maybe. I hope so.

But there are plenty of voices already saying that she is setting them up to fail.

I was reading the reader’s comments in The Metro yesterday (always a mistake) and it was full of stuff about how Andrea Leadsom had been deliberately sabotaged to get May in, so she could then wreck Brexit.

Mind you these are probably exactly the same people who were telling us before the referendum that the government were planning to fix the result. I guess giving out all those pens must have prevented that 🙄

Gove fired off into no mans land.

Even the darkest of clouds can have a tiny silver Pob-shaped lining.

Here’s hoping that Boris makes an utter **** of himself. It makes you think that by promoting these three to Brexit-heavy departments it will show that they aren’t up to the job and that it will be unworkable.

Ian Hislop wetting his pants ! Brexit, the gift that keeps on giving. Can we have some film of Bob Geldof taking a stroll through a fishing port please?

You’re laying it on a bit thick now. On a boring conference call or something?

I’ve met a few leavers – my social circle consists mainly of younger, educated people so mostly remainers fortunately.

The leavers I know were motivated by immigration thinking that reduced immigration will result in higher salaries and reduced house prices. Well we may get lower house prices with a recession so maybe that’s a win for them?!

And now you’ve got to come up with some answers

Yes, a novel concept indeed. And very different from being dictated to by unelected **** in Luxemburg.

Now if they could just bring in a new law that said if you voted leave and loose your job in a post Brexit meltdown you get a slap around the face and a bucket of sick instead of benefits.

It’s all very amusing from outside. Everyone thinks the UK is a joke country.

very different from being dictated to by unelected **** in Luxemburg.

Yes, we have enough of those in the House of Lords…

Incidentally if the OP really thinks the Remainers have gone to sleep (despite this and half a dozen other threads still raging on) then it’s only because some have become a bit numb:

UK exhausted from arguing with Brexit f**kwits

I’m sure plenty of non EU nations do micro biology research and I see no reason why post exit UK wouldn’t.

And all you have to do is click your heels three times and grant funding from China, India, Iceland, Peru etc will fall out of the sky.
