Maybe this is why the economy is still holding up We'll only really know the true impact of brexit once we leave, although the signs are not good hence why even those who promote brexit are too scared to pull the trigger
    Would you like to expand on which parts exactly you think are bollox?

    We haven't had brexit yet.
    - This is true

    We've lost inward investment
    - this is true

    jobs have moved abroad
    - this is true

    UK companies have wasted a lot of money planning for the unknown
    - this is true

    as yet we're still in the EU
    - this is true

    Maybe this is why the economy is still holding up
    - ok, this is my take on it. It's neither true or false, it's just an opinion.

    We'll only really know the true impact of brexit once we leave
    - this is true

    although the signs are not good
    - this is true i.e. jobs going abroad, lost inward investment, companies wasting money to plan for what exactly

    hence why even those who promote brexit are too scared to pull the trigger
    - this is true. The brexiter MPs have it in their power to vote May's WA through. This will ensure we leave the EU. This could have happened last month. They didn't pull the trigger. Why do you think this is exactly? Is it the fallacy around the backstop, or do you think it's because they never expected to win and don't really want brexit, or at least they don't want to be associated with the sh1tstorm

    There you go. Clearly not bollox as most of what I said is 100% factually correct.

      You have a large bunch of nuggets living off daddies income and lording it over other people at the new labour cheese n wine evening.

      The old labour supporters realising they need to fit into the new labour movement suddenly realise that they are not being properly recognised by Cressida and Tarquin and this has led them to not be invited to the vegan BBQ - obviously the new labourites are most upset by this social slight and so start to try to social climb

      and then get into debt.

      Hope this helps clarify the situation

          Scot's have always been seen that way. The north is far away.
