Arista, i find your tone to be increasingly offensive, i think you should think a bit more before you commit your posts as you are coming across as an intolerant extremist
I can assure you
I am not that.

Since the war, europe has tried to be peaceful ... and all credit for that, but world powers are always a threat, and the nature of threats change. I personally don't think that going it alone is necessarily a sensible strategy, but then, we don't know what our future holds, the only thing we know is that nothing is ever certain.
The UK "stood on its own feet" by exploiting and plundering half of the world and claiming it as "ours". Those days are long, LONG gone now and they're not coming back... The world is mapped and claimed. There are no more New Worlds, no more colonies, and the economy is increasing global. If we in the UK don't realise that soon, we're economically doomed to irrelevance.

As part of the EU, and we've always had the opportunity to be a driving force if we stopped driving with the handbrake on, we would be sitting at the top of an economic superpower that can compete with the US, China and the large emerging economies.

Alone we're insignificant.

We remember the bad never the good when it comes to the EU. ... when it's bad we've done to others however that gets quickly flipped :/

We're an island, we have an island mentality that's where the waryness comes from, but as Europe was sold to us gen x 40 somethings they were our continental cousins with shared values and religion...now they are the enemy?
And the BRIC countries with their corruption and dubious human rights records are the face of future international trade?. along with the US, is this in our best interests personally I can't see how.

No kazanne...that is in no way way I am saying.

You voted to leave and should do so.

You in the Uk do not understand our frustration with Brexit.


Leave means leave..they hold their nose's in regard to Ireland..shamefull behavior

Hi Ammi! It remains to be seen whether peace in N.Ireland would be compromised, and if that was the case the present government wouldnt be responsible for those who would kill and maim for so little reason - those who take up guns or bomb innocent people would be responsible for their own actions. There is NO excuse for that.
I am far more fearful of Corbyn getting into government. A devious and dangerous man who has already encouraged the deaths of many innocents and was hand in glove with those who caused those innocents lives to be cut short and their families lives ruined forever. I know this, and the reason I no longer post here is because I can't co - exist with those who turn a blind eye and could tolerate him as their countries leader. May and Johnston? They are pussycats compared to that sick ***K.

Yes, good times!

Hi to Cherie too, I miss you ladies, all the best to you both.

...hmmmm, I’m still confused by your stance...but I’m going to leave it there...you say it remains to be seen whether peace would be compromised, while a no deal Brexit is going to compromise the Good Friday Agreement and this is all very imminent... the fear and concern of those living in and out of NI is very real and very now...the fear though of JC becoming PM does not have a huge likelihood atm..anyways I don’t see this as a who is/was worse competition, I see someone in Johnson who is self serving and ego driven, sadly...the very opposite of what the country would have needed right now in this time of uncertainty, fear and division...but yeah, I’m going to leave it there, Jet...
