    The Greeks had a referendum on the EU's bailout package, and voted for it with a huge majority.

    They know full well who's to blame for their bankruptcy, what their options are, and what was the best way of getting out of the mess.

    Unfortunately for the Brexiteers they don't read British tabloid newspapers.

      Just to refresh your memory:
      Greek debt crisis: What was the point of the referendum? - BBC News

      To summarise, the vote was 61% against. Of course the government ignored the result, hence they aren't the government any more.

          I know, I feel slightly unclean quoting facts to a remainer. To be honest, I felt sorry for the clearly-deluded idiot, but he's had a lot to come to terms with over the last few weeks. That second referendum was almost within touching distance...and then it wasn't, and now we're leaving in 75 hours and about 15 mins. I didn't want it to look like I was rubbing it in. We should be better than that.

          Oh, f**k it.

            I always find it fascinating why Brexiteers think non-Brexiteers give a sh*t about Brexit.

            I'm in favour of Brexit, it gives me much entertainment and boosts my portfolio. I'm not the whining in "State of the Market"

              Please continue with "the rubbing it in" and the jeering.

              Somehow it makes the ensuing disaster more entertaining as it slowly unfolds.

                  I'd put money on the UK breaking up before the EU.

                      History not your strong point I gather, which makes a lot of sense given the average Brexiter thesis. History repeating coming to a UK town near you
