Like he gives a flying Feck about you not forgiving him.... That was pretty much my point. In that respect, he was/is hardly unique amongst politicians, domestic or global.

How did the margin compare with that of the last General Election?
That seemed a tight call. Should we have had a re-run of that as well?
Incidentally, I thought Alistair Campbell was properly ripped apart by Portillo last night ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)
In the election folk were aware of what putting an X in a box meant. That was not the case in the referendum. Why do remainers insist on belittling leave voters I knew what I was voting for and so did most others

Why do remainers insist on belittling leave voters I knew what I was voting for and so did most others Apologies if it came across that way, not the intention. I'm sure many leave-voters knew exactly why they were doing so, and it had little to do with the lies spouted by Johnson and his ilk. But, and I've spoken to many, including members of my family, they have unequivocally stated that they were not aware of the extent of the downside to leaving the EU, and would not have voted to do so if they had been. You could correctly observe that the remain campaign should have done a better job in pointing these things out, but unfortunately, we're enduring, in my opinion at least, the poorest calibre of politician I can remember. On both sides of the divide. Absolute shambles, almost without exception.

I honestly cannot believe that we all sit here and accept it. They do very little aside from pretending that they understand things better than the general public and then refusing to tell the general public anything about what is going to happen. That's mainly because they never have a plan, but even when they do they would rather keep it behind a veil so it cannot be scrutinised. The whole system is Fecked. Fundamental changes are needed.

How do they know the downside we having left yet, and it's all speculation,I could say lies but that would be insinuating that remainers have told lies and that " can't be true" can it ?

Should we have voted to leave? Who knows
Should we have voted to stay? Who knows
Should we be considering another vote? 100% No!
No need to thank me for clearing that up.

Well I'm amazed. It's over 24 hours since the People's March yet the government hasn't been brought down and Brexit hasn't been cancelled.
Could it be that yesterday's match achieved absolutely nothing other than to prove that there's an awful lot of sore loosers out thread who don't believe in democracy?

Democracy is dead. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs to think about it. I just wonder how long people will keep applauding career politicians for merely not answering a simple question in as many words as possible. I've had enough. I will be doing something about it soon and I advise everyone else to do the same. Yes, democracy is a shit system, it's just another word for mob rule. I'm of the opinion that we need to live in a non aggressive dictatorship, led by a gentle, stable genius. There must one out there amongst 70 million of us. A system of routine, ordinary lives where everyone is willing to do their part for the good of the country and fellow countrymen. No need for selfish politicians or a party political divide. In the Dictator we will trust!

What if we kill off Great Britain, and start up AFC Britain. To make sure it is taken seriously on the World stage maybe Richard Branson, Alan Sugar, Mike Ashley and Philip Green could all bung in 50k.

To make sure it is taken seriously on the World stage maybe Richard Branson, Alan Sugar, Mike Ashley and Philip Green could all bung in 50k. Won't that mean having to boycott Great Britain for few months first before AFC Britain can get properly up and running? Where do you suggest everyone should go with their banners in the interim? Calais is sh!t at this time of year (any time of year, really), and Dublin is b@st@rd expensive for p!ssheads. I suppose Ostend is an option though. Always nice to be close to Brussels.
