Rayvin 4964 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 This tweet demonstrates both that Boris Johnson and Leave had no fucking idea what they were offering to the public, and worse, that we are indeed going to leave the Single Market. Johnson cannot become PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4964 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 That was definitely one of the cited issues I don't think it's going to fail though - closer political and economic union will see it through. If Britain collapses, they'll point to us as the warning of what may happen to those who leave. If we don't collapse it may struggle more, I accept. This is one of the reasons why I don't think we'll get off easy in negotiations. They'll do just enough to make sure things don't look rosy here.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 That was definitely one of the cited issues It was discussed in many of the debates / media and was one of the main reasons I gave you when you asked me on the 10th June.

Rayvin 4964 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I meant the issue I was referring to. My point was that the EU superstate was definitely something people (maybe you?) had raised as a concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Cameron standing down as PM, etc Alex man give it a rest. Me not knowing Cameron is going to step down is not me changing my view. In these forum discussions, there is serious exchanges, piss takes from all members and sometimes both mixed together. While Krugman is saying a lot of the stuff I've been saying, I think even you know I'm being tongue in cheek when I say I'm right about everything. The whole point in discussing this sort of issue btw, is to make your case and understand others viewpoints and as such, views will change over time as events unfold. May I kindly suggest you drink less coffee and get your nails clipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was that the EU superstate was definitely something people (maybe you?) had raised as a concern. I guess there's a whole number of reasons on each side why people reached their views. Some will have more weight than others and some on each side will only be proven true or false in years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 People look at Osbourne and see a man who would rather have a shit weird looking hair do so he can tease some hair into the gap left by a receding hairline and they can't trust that sort of decision making. They assume he's hiding other stuff, so vote against him. That's why we're in the shit. Osbourne's fucking Trump over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
