For brexiters only please.

MaizieD
So sorry that we've disappointed you. It's a shame but I suggest you find a more interesting occupation.
How about starting a thread for remainers only?
You can be sure of an echo chamber with like minded people and no Brexiteers.

Those on here who put their X in the “leave the EU” box, have given repeatedly their reasons for doing so.

If their are posters on here asking the same old questions, I suggest your time would be better spent re-reading all the previous “Brexit related” threads?

I believe that this thread has been started for "Brexitiers only" as those who voted that way realise that their argument(s) just do not stand up in any genuine debate

You might believe that. We can all believe anything we want really. The purpose of this thread was not to discuss but to share.

There are any number of threads where you can discuss, almost none where those of like mind can share. besides, I just wanted to know if there were others out there like me.

Clearly there are and there are lots of lovely people making really good comments. I thank them all for re assuring me

Start a thread for remainders only grabriella ....why the exclusivity ? It’s like chips without salt or vinegar ...boring
Nobody has yet told me what’s so bad about the EU apart from a few nutters moaning about straight bananas I never heard anyone complain before the Cameron debacle

I suggest that all remain voters retire from this thread now and return in a few days once the brexit positivity builds up and there are dozens of optimistic but realistic posts to reassure us!

No, Grandad this thread isn’t for debating with Remainers.
aprilrose would like a nice thread for us Brexiteers to post positive things.

Nice try though.

Hear, hear GrannyGravy

Can we be that lucky mcem?

aprilrose in regard to your post @19:23 today, you state that there are any number of threads where we can discuss Brexit.

However, I have been through just a few of the threads in this section of the forum, and there are a number of requests from remain posters asking forum members with leave views how European Union membership has damaged Britain or their lives. Sadly, I am in any of those threads unable to find any replies to those requests.

So, I will attempt to get the ball rolling.

The Question. While Britain has been a member of the European Union it became the fifth-largest economic power in the world.

Therefore can someone with leave views "please" inform me how the above has damaged Britain and made our lives worse???????

Well I voted leave and I don't have to explain or discuss my reasons with anyone.
It was my right, my vote, my opinion and my decision and nothing to do with anyone else.
Champagne and fireworks at the ready......

I repeat, this thread was designed to be provocative.

The first post demonstrates this point. Rather than say "I am a Brexiter" and make a few points as to the tangible advantages of leaving the EU, Opel chooses to follow up her statement with "I am now just waiting for the first remainer to pop their head over the parapet".

The OP then goes on to say how much she likes BJ, followed by another poster emphasizing their support for him and their disgust at Oliver Letwin and Dominic Grieve.

Someone else then pops in to say she is sick of remainers "catastrophising".

Another poster refers to remainers as "gatecrashers" for, against explicit instructions, putting forward their views. Then there's "baying hounds" and "wasps round a jam jar".

It seemed that very few of the enthusiastic leavers were inclined to elaborate on the reasons for their joy - perhaps a list of all the opportunities that will present themselves once we leave?

As I said previously, the whole purpose of the thread was to provoke an argument whilst assuming an air of reasonableness and injured innocence.

I repeat, this thread was designed to be provocative

Rubbish. Absolute rubbish. I put this thread up so I know exactly what it was for. I wanted to find other people who like me had voted to leave the EU and to talk to them. Just as I said on the tin.

Good idea Buffybee
I was bought a good bottle of champagne for my 65th birthday in August. We’ve decided to open it and celebrate when we Brexit!

Urmstongran, I see no positive things being posted in this thread. What I do witness is Brexitiers sobbing on each other's virtual shoulders over the defeat in the House of Commons yesterday and in the realisation of the terrible error they made in voting as they did in the referendum.

I voted leave and nothing has changed my mind. I do think, however, that had the remainers won, we would have been a little more polite and graceful in accepting it!

People like you make me laugh. Juvenile spelling errors BlueBelle.

I think we will be out on 31st October. It was encouraging to see Barnier in Brussels today (on a Sunday) with his team, still working on the draft deal.

I shall get my Proseco on ice and hopefully sit in the garden and toast a bright new future on 31st Octobert 2019 at 11 pm. Positive not negative thoughts. And if its raining I shall use my umbrella or maybe not

That’s a positive, eh Grandad1943!

Ha! Love that Dottyann

As an ardent remainer, why on earth are you wasting time on this thread?
Rabble rousing?
We don't aim to please you or your ilk.
Find something more interesting.

No such thing as a thread 'for brexiteers only'.
that is not part of any kind of discussion or democractic process. So I've asked the moderators to delete it asap. Any other approach is fascist, to be blunt.

suziewoozie you are right.
Painting.

Oh god paintingthetownred!!

Hammers and cracking nuts?

I hope the mods leave this thread up and running to show support for the spirit behind it.

There there Eloethan we will be out of the EU soon and then all the nastiness will come to an end......?

I disagree that the purpose was ‘goady’ I saw it as a (doomed )
Effort to have a thread for any leaver to post remarks without all the ever present insults and anger/ demands for explanation/etc etc which has been the boring theme for three long,very long years on GN.
Will it stop I wonder, if MP’s do vote to pass Johnson’s deal this week, we leave on the 31st, and then go on to negotiate
After that, or will the bitterness from Remainers on the forum dog us all to the grave?
Answers on a postcard please.

Oh dear paintingthetownred. A bit over the top really.

However, whilst I have the opportunity I would thank all those who entered into the fun and positive attitude that I was trying to foster with this thread.
