The Brexit Thread

[El Kabong]

I'm not sure what you smell Lyle. You've got no idea what you're on about though. As usual you're just parroting whatever is on Fox News and conservative media. What I'm discussing here is an economic and trade deal involving hundreds of billions of dollars between a bunch of democratic nations.

Britain voted to leave the EU, the EU should accept the exit of Britain and not seek revenge or hold Britain hostage economically....but the EU is not shy about their aspirations (they want an "Empire") and they've already expressed concerns over the UK becoming an economic rival, Angela herself floated that idea and so yeah YOU might be worried about a metric shit ton of money, but you shouldn't worry only about that as the political system and trust held therein could be irreparably damaged by not delivering Brexit. One way or another it has to happen. America will of course be eager to deal with the UK as I am sure others will....and again if we're to only go by economics and what is "good" for a nation, when will Zimbabwe be welcomed back into the British Empire?

It really comes to something when i am told worrying about my Mrs dying on me is just being selfish and yet here you are still ripping the piss out of the entire situation like a kid smashing down something a group has built together out of some kind of jealous spitefulness.

Mrs are you married yet or not? I apologize, I'm confused about this. Future Father In-Law but your Mrs....not fiancee, not girlfriend, not life partner, not soul mate....Mrs. Just trying to make sure I understand correctly.

Who made fun/light of you worrying about your Mrs? It's not selfish in the least, but that is your individual circumstance and other folks have just as dire of situations in the opposite direction AND the people voted leave so does your set of individual circumstances out weigh everybody else's? Do your circumstances out weigh the faith and trust your fellow citizens have in your system of government? THAT could be seen as selfish, but in all honesty I feel very bad for you given your situation, there but for the grace of God go I. My views are my views based on my system of beliefs and one of those beliefs is that elections have consequences, votes like this matter, the people who voted Leave will be expecting Britain to make good on that referendum...do we know or understand what comes if that doesn't happen?

You've seemingly taken my own political beliefs very personally. I do not think how I think to make you happy or to piss you off, you don't even enter the thought process for me. I don't say that to be anything other than real, I wouldn't expect you to think of me when you made any decisions of a political nature.

Get a deal, build on what we have and fucking put Boris and Blair and El Kabong etc in the tower of London.

If you're down for a Brexit deal happening then why all the hostility? If A deal happens, then wonderful, if not, Brexit still must be delivered. There are people (hopefully very few) who want a second referendum, I think that's a bad idea but I'm sure they'll do whatever they please regardless of my feelings. There are people working hard to make Brexit most painful for Britain to either shock Britain into rethinking Brexit or just to spitefully punish Britain for leaving....I don't see those as positive things.

Put me in the tower of London? Well well well, looks like I rate rather highly with you.....imprison and torture an American who dares think differently than you? Impressive grudge you hold there
