the wisdom of generations of Englishmen
Shame on you, for wishing to using the gullibility of youth to overturn the wisdom of generations of Englishmen
Am i the only one who hasn't got a clue what Brexit means or what it's all about?
Just lets GTFOOI ASAP.
The truth is Dazza, that I don't follow your links because unlike others you can't be bothered to type out the relevant issues. Just posting links and saying 'read this' is a lazy way of responding, and I can't be bothered
Just wanna make the point that we are a representative democracy.Well then our democracy is defunct. Finished.

Ignorance is bliss as they say.Here's another little fact....there are a few coppers on here probably reading this who would've made many arrests in their time. I bet none of them would have threatened to come round and arrest someone, even in jest.The fact that you did tells me you've actually never made an arrest or had the power to do so.You are are a regular Walter Mitty with delusions of grandeur.This is the real world mate, not your little cosseted civil servant world.Wake up. Expand your knowledge, read the other point of views or forever remain narrow minded.And as a bonus, you won't make yourself look like such a knob.

Just keeps getting better doesn't it.....Now, all of a sudden VNA is concerned about democracy And you keep on posting the same things like a broken record when the real reasons either appear to have gone over your head or you've chosen to ignore them.The real truth here is that both your responses and belittling attitudes haven't done the remain argument any good at all.Another interesting fact was your reaction to the video I posted with the two lovely gentleman, one ranting on about what he's going to do to anyone who converts to Christianity.You were "offended" by who's page it came from rather than the content.....Oh dear.... You, are the reason these people are emboldened and feel they can post such offensive things and without you realising, you are the reason why support for your arch enemy "Tommy Robinson " is going to grow and grow.So, sit back and enjoy the fruits of you being a snowflake.You really are both blinded by your self righteousness.
you've actually never made an arrest or had the power to do so.

4. Cheap food and drink imports
Quote from: VNA on Today at 01:10:10 PM<blockquote>4. Cheap food and drink imports </blockquote>So what happened to all your scaremongering about increased food prices. Looks like that one was proved false and you now agree that there is no need for food prices to increase. But now that you have been shown that you were wrong you have resorted to agreeing it can be cheaper but it will be poisoned instead.
Apart from food prices, how about imported food availability? Held up because of additional Customs controls?
im avoiding the news until we are (hopefully) out.....
It's more complicated than that. At the moment food on lorries from France goes through unchecked roll on/roll off the ferries. After we leave (without a deal) all lorries will need export/import paperwork and will require checks. There will be continuous delays on both sides of the channel. Perishable food perishes. European suppliers will find other markets for their goods to avoid the hassle.Good job we've got turnips
