Brexit: On a scale of 1 to 10, where do you stand?

Well Gill to answer your question. I voted for Brexit.

What was in the manifest made sense.

If you can pay for fuel then yes you should.
People are living longer now and a tripple lock on pensions is not sustainable.

I don't feel let down in the slightest. It of course had to go due to such a pie in the sky left wing manifesto.

Corbin makes me want to puke.

daphnedil I don't suppose saad will want to deal with those awful red, left leaning people who work in public service anyway.

So, saad if you voted for Brexit, and Mrs May, how do you feel now? You voted for abolition of the triple lock on pensions, means testing of winter fuel allowance, a cap on fuel prices to name but a few of the manifesto promises that the Tories made and now have been dismissed. Let down? Taken in by broken promises? Still think she is a person to be trusted?

Oh well I don't have much sympathy for people who have voted for a marxist egotistical maniac. The party was and is defunct. Im working class and voted for Brexit and a party that would do this.

PS. I don't have much sympathy for identity politics. From experience, those who claim to be working class Conservatives are bullshitters.

stillaliveandkicking That's your opinion. I don't think I have it wrong at all - but that's my opinion.

10 and 10+, I've been on holiday, catching up!

err its certainly mad egotistical corbyns aim.

I wonder if that was the intention, Jalima, divide and rule?

well if you didn't ask for them why are you getting pissed off then?

Did we ask for the triple lock though?
Did we ask for it to be kept along with the winter fuel allowance, free tv licences etc?

Are pensioners to be castigated if they voted to keep these and young people to be applauded for voting for no tuition fees?

Double standards are being applied.

Unfortunately, these proposed policies set one generation against another and we do not want that, it is destructive rather than constructive.

Thank you daphne

*loan.... predictive.. grrrr

Greece was also bailed out too. Do they have a load deficit anymore or was that quashed?

Key stuck on the...

I think you will find that Greece joined the currency. Thank god we didn't.

Daph, I also think you have this so wrong. Im a working class person wanting out of one thing at a time. Brexit will do this. The far left are pretty whacky in their views, very militant and will make things much worse.

Support getting out of the EU, control your own borders and things will change. Wages will change due to non exploitation. There will not the the mass.

I have no idea why people don't get this.

Not only is GDP growth low, but wages are affected too. This time Greece is below the UK, but only just:

www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/uk-workers-have-had-the-worst-wage-growth-in-the-oecd-except-greece-a7773246.html

British workers have had the worst wage growth in the OECD of any country except Greece.

However, pensioners will be OK, because the triple lock will protect them. How on earth can anybody seriously wonder why younger, working age people want change?

Im a bit too young to know that much about Gracie Fields, watched a film about her though not too long ago.

getting a bit lighthearted there and realised it is not the Glastonbury thread.

Goodness me, was it like looking at people that don't want to grow up Jalima?

Do you like Gracie Fields SAAK?

Actually, I did say to DH (who didn't enjoy it) that I could not hum any one of the songs today because they weren't 'catchy' (and I couldn't hear the words anyway).

Daph and durr, among all your needless links are you happy that Corbyn is leading your party? If so, why?

Sorry, I couldn't get the chart do go any bigger. Here it is embedded in article in the Indy.
