Personally, I'd like to congratulate Bobby47 on his excellent pastiche of the sort of jingoistic, semi-fascistic and isolationist nonsense that led many to vote leave.
Unfortunately Bobby there are a some people on this forum who might think you're being serious.

And still the turmoil continues. I blame the French. Who wouldn’t? The French and their French speaking allies, who’ve never quite recovered from the shame they continue to carry about following the early capitulation during the Second World War, can never quite come to terms with their shame and the debt they owe to Britain. It’s really not such a stupid statement to make. Old historical wounds of bitter shame last a very long time and can and do have an impact upon our political lives today. For the French, ‘‘tis easier to forgive their conqueror Germany than it is to forgive their liberator Britain’ Quite simply the French hate the notion that Britain and their Commonwealth allies played a major role in their liberation,and for them, Brexit, is their opportunity to hurt Britain. Be under no illusions, whichever side of the argument you occupy, be cognisant of one single sure thing. Those of France, Belgium and Luxembourg are not our friends. Many of them despise the rich history of the British. The old and disgraced French military doctrine, the very same one that still exists today and now yearns to run an EU army, one of defend, retreat, capitulate, desert, surrender and then collaborate with their enemy is their national septic boil that will not heal and scab over. Worse for the French to bear is that Britain was the choice destination of their national hero Charles De Gaulle who fled his homeland because his own people sentenced him to death because he refused to accept surrender. All of this history is deeply embedded into the psyche of the hierarchy of the French establishment and their ruling elite and this is one reason why we are where we are in our dealings with the EU. They are not our friends and we’d do well to realise that the French want to see our country ruined! Please, God, don't allow this person a Twitter account.

I stayed in the Corfu Imperial at the same time as Gorbachev. Handed him a ladle for his beans at breakfast time. Had a route of my St Margarets Walk on his loaf.

Got any examples of far left extremist press saying anything like that? All you've shared is an opinion piece submitted to the Guardian by a lecturer from Cambridge Uni, which doesn't fit that description in any way.

If the French now side with the Germans it might have something to do with getting more sense out of them than this country which is growing increasingly irrelevant by the day.

Love how everyone on here has ignored Jeremy Corbyn's orders for Labour members not to meet and have discussion on Brexit until no deal has been ruled out. We have this stupid argument 2 years ago ffs. No deal has to be on the table otherwise our negotiating position will be severely weakened.

Nothing much has changed in two years. You're still a vile bullying c""t who should be picking on young people on social media who are better equipped to seek you out and give you a good hiding.
As my old gran used to say, once a wrong'un, always a wrong'un. Goodness me this post really does just about say it all and now we know why you decided to choose the name "millwall." Maybe one day you'll be brave enough to go back to it to show what you really are by suggesting that some one should be beaten up on a football forum because you don't like what they've said. I do wonder though how proud your grandmother would have been of you for posting a picture of a great British landmark burning to the ground. To suggest you're a wrong un would be putting it mildly. On here it takes some doing to stand out from the crowd as well. Edit: Post deleted and can I just say that this happens far too often to me nowadays. As a good friend of mine always said "Think before you post."

Jeremy Corbyn has being crying out for collaboration for two years, but May refused. This is essentially why we are in this predicament. Her own colleagues are still doubtful that she is capable of effective cross-party negotiations. Who made the comment about her "sucking any goodwill out of the room?" Oh, and even members of her Cabinet want a no deal ruled out, never mind Jeremy Corbyn! The SNP leader and the Liberal Democrat leader also want no deal off the table as a precondition for discussions but you won't hear that in the Daily Mail. The Lib Dems are the most intransigent. They are only prepared to countenance a "people's vote"

The title of this thread is the true cost of BREXIT, remember.
Well, analysis has proven that there is not a single country in the world that trades purely under WTO rules. The default position for hard Brexiteers and the place we would be leaving without a deal. All the countries of the world have some other form of trade agreement. In other words the UK would be a trading pariah if it were to leave the EU without trade agreements in place with other countries.
Just to point out the nearest you get to identifying a country that operates without trade agreements is, wait for it, Mauritania, a country whose GDP is $4,714million (0.2% of the UK’s), 50% of its exports consist of Iron Ore.
The reason I said the nearest you get to identifying a country that operates without trade agreements is because Mauritania has preferential trade agreements with, you guessed it, the EU.
This is an inter-connected world however much the Brits like to put their head in the sand.

We live in a different world, that is constantly changing. The way you speak is as though no progress has been made in 70 years How can you be sure?

What's more how many countries around the world insert freedom of movement into their trade deals with other countries? Britain should be allowed to do deals around the world with other countries without being tied down to a continent that is slowly falling behind the rest of the world. America, China, India, Brazil. These are the big future trading powerhouses of the world. You're slightly in denial about how badly European countries have been performing these past 10 years.
