Well that’s it. We’re not leaving the EU. The people in charge won’t allow it.

I admire those who are standing up to Johnson who clearly only wants to leave with no deal. The informed British public don’t want to leave with a no deal....those who voted leave were told ‘of course the EU will fall over themselves to give us a deal’.

But then that was from Boris who is a well known liar and frankly, a self-serving idiot.

I can understand your viewpoint Kandinsky if you have are retired, have a good works pension, private health care and healthy savings, you will be OK I expect.

But spare a thoight for those who might well lose their jobs, small businesses struggling to get by, those with health issue who rely on the NHS, farmers and fishermen.

Exactly .

I really thought Boris had us in a good place and that the EU would have been taking notice that we were leaving on 31st October NO MATTER WHAT ! But obviously those who “know better” than the voters have now sabotaged any chance we had of getting a better deal . I look at JC’s smug little puppet weasel face and I feel the need to punch him.

Who wants another year or 3 of this sh*t ? Not me that’s for sure and the uncertainty is killing UK business .

Endless talking and delaying the "exit date" is doing more harm to the UK economy and democracy than leaving the EU could!!!

How are companies meant to forward plan?

No you’re right gillybob
They never wanted brexit in the 1st place ( the majority of them anyway ) and all they’ve done since the day after the referendum is try and sabotage the process. They’re protecting their own interests.

We’re not leaving.
And remainers talk about democracy hmm

They’ve basically told 17 million leave voters to F**k off.

Quite agree with you two, Kandinsky and gillybob. I usually leave the politics threads well alone but I am so cross. Nuff said.

Sorry if that rant reads like gobbledygook. I’m sure you get what I mean . blush

I was thinking something similar Kandisnsky.

I was a Remain voter but can’t help but think that this is so anti democratic . I was so angry last night and vowed to stay away from the political threads and even avoid the news . What do these people want ? Another 3 years of talking ? Another referendum? Best of 3 ? I actually think Boris had us in a good place with the EU by saying we are leaving with or without a deal on October 31st . Surely that alone would make them sit up and think. But none because of those who think they know better than their constituents we are left looking like the laughing stock and will literally have to bend over and get thrashed by the EU who must be laughing their bloody socks off .

As I said I voted Remain I wanted Brexit to go away but this is something else and I am very angry.

What the ‘people’ want counts for nothing.

I hope all the traitors & enemies of the people are happy. angry
