This seemed obvious for a while now despite attempts by some to suggest otherwise. People respecting a public vote despite not entirely agreeing with leaving the EU is admirable and what democracy is all about. ance2: |

Ah yes, the paragon of journalism, Buzzfeed.

Are you trying to say the study is fake or the results are incorrect? Easy to dismiss something with just uninformed words.
Buzzfeed is as valid as most other journalistic presentations on here. Last edited by Brillopad; 12-08-2017 at 02:20 PM. |

A groundbreaking project by the London School of Economics and Oxford University surveying more than 3,000 people – which BuzzFeed News has seen exclusively ahead of its official publication
Helps if you read it before falling over yourself to make a smart comment |

"One poll showed 88% of the public supporting free trade with the EU post-Brexit, while 69% wanted customs checks at the border – a directly contradictory position, meaning at least 57% of respondents had said they supported both open and closed borders."
And people try to argue that the majority of voters know what they're voting for? |

Absolute lies and cesspit 'journalism' again.
More people in the UK would choose no Brexit than any Brexit at the moment. |

There is no such thing as a hard soft brexit. There is leaving the EU or the Eu lite some try to sell as soft brexit because they want their way.
Re the misquoting jokes and jolly japes above where the single market is confused with a free trade deal, we will leave the single market and everything else when we leave the EU, because we are leaving. However I don't see how that stops stops us negotiating a free trade deal for after we leave. Canada has one. So it's not impossible. Feeling the pain for those who got flak for presuming they know why 17 million other people voted and for implying those who had a different view were stupid. Like heartburn, bit of a burp.

I make and voice my own opinions which are formed by staying aware and finding and reading trustable and reliable information. Some people here can't even be bothered to type whole words let alone more than a single sentence (and then only just) and just rely on posting links to jibberish 'articles'. They pretend to be aware as long as they don't have to spend a couple of minutes researching something. If they can't click on a link and be spoon-fed information then they'd rather wither away wallowing in their ignorance. |

Well excuse me for giving more credence to them than your opinion which is based on nothing more than personal opinion. If you can prove the study is somehow incorrect or dubious be my guest. |

I am educated (i know Trump loves the uneducated so i will always make a point that i am not that. His ignorance is repugnant!) and i state my opinion. If you disagree with any of it or can actually correct anything i've said please do so. That's what constructive discussion is all about. I've seen you regularly post some absolute drivel and called you out on it and i haven't once seen you able to correct my points. You regularly turn up to a gun fight armed with a spoon.

As i've already said, i absolutely don't care if you agree with me or not. I was merely voicing my educated opinion. Nowhere did i say ''and demand you agree with it or else''. |

Most voters are ignorant ****s that don't know their arse from their elbow and voted on nothing more than empty promises, headlines and catchphrases. Same with the latest election, anyone that bothered to look into the Tories' manifesto for a minute or two could see that they are full of **** and that Theresa May is a weak leader that will fold to everything because she only stands for anything on a superficial level.
Ignorance will always prevail, most people that voted in the referendum would have voted based on what their family and friends were voting or whether or not they wanted to 'kick all the immigrants out'. Leaver regret became a thing after the referendum results came out and the lies that the Leaver side spouted were instantly debunked. It wouldn't surprise me to see the sheep still living with their heads in the sand but you won't get many of the 49% that voted Remain switching sides when literally nothing good has come from it thus far. Very little point in voting tbh, ignorance always wins. Cue the faux indignation because I dared to have an opinion. Last edited by Tom4784; 12-08-2017 at 09:47 PM. |
