Still told to 'get over it, it's done.

Think about it Claremont!

😂😂😂 yes petra for sure!

Obviously dots should be in the above.

I bet someone else wished they had joined the. Too eager, me thinks.

Anyhow, all to do with the future, not for the past. It's not done, at all. The only thing that has been done, is massive damage to all sectors, of the economy, especially those that were promised miracles.

The fight is on, and no, we will not 'get over it'- for sure

‘The vast majority who voted for Brexit are dead now^? And it has become obsolete ?

What a load of nonsense. Far from ‘common sense’. If the vast majority who voted for Brexit are now dead, should not the vast majority who voted to remain also be dead?

No, demographics are quite clear. Older people voted for Brexit- many are now gone. Simple fact.

Good call Barleyfields of course it does!
Acti never joined those particular dots either! 😂

No, just common sense!

That doesn’t take away the fact that the comment was in very bad taste 🤬

Interesting to see that Ms Johnson (Boris' sister) - is urging for another vote as she says, quite rightly, that as the vast majoritay of those who voted for it are now dead- it has become obsolete.

Charming!! 😯

As sensitive as her brother, then.

I always thought she’s similar to Boris in that she enjoys being in the limelight so she says any old rubbish😁

Ooops, sorry for typos. Always forget no editing on this site!

Huge respect for anyone who is honest enough to accpet they made a mistake, possibly due to all the claims on red bus, and so many other promises. I went to a U3A Conference this week on AI, and the Professor explained how anyone who was undecided was targetted again and again on social media, with all sorts of promises and claims, which turned out all to be false.

+ demographics- a huve proportion of those who voted for Brexit have no died.

DH & I voted Leave. We would dearly love to be asked again because we would vote Rejoin. I truly believe there are many like us. I think that 51/49 vote could easily be reverse, they only have to ask us. I wish they would because the way the world is going there is strength in being part of a bloc, and the USA is turning out to be a new Russia in the making.

A debate on rejoining is happening in Parliament on March 20th so the European Movement is asking everyone to contact their MP's, if they are in favour, to ask them to attend...

Thank you for the information, pascal30.

sorry 24th March..

The current figures show that there is a 34% reduction in the export of food and beverages to the EU since Brexit.

The cost to the UK is massive, just for this, and especially a disaster for UK farming. Urging us to buy British is great, I am all in favour- but it won't make up for this.

So, yes - what does it mean precisely?

I suspect in some cases it indicates a slight stirring of a guilty conscience. Who likes to be constantly reminded that they did something a bit silly?

Not a bit silly, REALLY STUPID.

The really guilty consciences should belong to those who didn’t bother to vote at all.

But they’re probably too busy slating those who voted leave.

I voted to remain, can see the damage Brexit has done to our economy, but can’t get myself worked up about something we can’t change.

... but why the assumption that those who talk about or mention Brexit under a topic, say, discussing the economy / shortage of labour / whatever, are worked up about it?

I was once patronisingly told that it was bad for my mental health to 'go on' about it! In fact, I wasn't "going on" about it at all, I mentioned it because it was relevant to what we were debating... I don't agonise over it, it doesn't keep me awake at night, in fact I don't think about it other than when there are political discussions. And I'm sure I'm not unique... so what is there to get over?

I have, to use another favourite phrase, "moved on" - because that's how human nature works - like millions of other people do when an event or whatever upsets their normal way of life or their routine. But I'm blowed if I'm going to excise the word because it offends the sensitivities of those who insist I "get over it". It's nonsense!

We have to work with what we’ve got, not fret endlessly about what could have been. The ballot was ill advised and inexcusable imho, but it happened, the majority of voters who turned out wanted us to leave, and yes, because we’re a democracy the rest of us do have to accept that majority vote and “get over it”. We’re seeing closer cooperation now - we’re back in Horizon and plans are afoot, not before time, to try to ease the difficulties travelling musicians and other performers have experienced.

I think this BBC summary is interesting and even-handed, and yes, it gives examples of some Brexit benefits, small though they may be at the moment. We are, for example, finally starting to see savings on the EU net payments we used to make, though the financial commitments we have are still torturously complicated.

As for us being a laughing stock - what nonsense. I’ve lived and worked in Europe and our friends over there have more than enough to worry about in their own countries to give us a second thought. We’re really not that important!
