    Yes, I too find wiritngs hilarious.

    Have you invented any other nouns to try and explain your muppetry? You are pretty adept.

        How about a IR35 solution . We create WTO rules based on stupid IR35 rules.

            I think you need to post the rest of that so the Leavers understand better...










            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

Leave really does mean leave, which is the "No Deal" situation.

              What the UK still hasn't got it's head around is what kind of a future relationship it wants. EEA, for example, is available through the EEA agreement which also confers certain rights and obligations, including access to the single market, a customs union, freedom of movement, etc.

              Therefore, joining the EEA/EFTA requires us to leave the EU (and to leave everything) and to join a different treaty which may have nearly all the same rights and obligations. If we do this then technically the brief has been fulfilled where we have left the EU (by leaving the founding treaty); we have just concurrently decided to join another treaty that looks similar but is not the EU.

              But No Deal is the default.

              Shame the ignorant remainers on here have no idea and can only resort to insults rather than reasoned argument and discussion.

                The EU has 'rights and obligations'. The Brexiters just want all the rights, without any of the obligations.

                  You mean they are replying to insults - like yours in that post - with insults?

                  Any time an intelligent discussion has been started, it gets derailed by those who are only interested in insulting and have little interest in debating.

                  Over 2 years have passed since the vote. “We” haven’t left and “we” haven’t done anything to sort out what we would actually do about important parts of life outside the EU. E.g. Open Skies, EurAtom, Irish Border, etc.
                  If you’d care to discuss those in a civil manner, you might find there are others on here who will too. But if you’re going to claim that one side can only ever resort to insults rather than reasoned argument and discussion, you may as well say that everything wrong with the world is the fault of those who voted for remain, the EU and all foreigners.

                    No I mean that almost every post put on here that has a different opinion to someone who voted remain gets a reply that, from many of those with a remain view, they are a cretin, stupid, unintelligent morons.
                    Yesintelligent discussions on here do get derailed by those in the remain camp who think their view is the only view and anybody with a different view is a moron and a cretin.

                    I for one am fed up with the immature ignorant attitude of certain small minded individuals on here.
