What a silly thing to say, that those who voted remain are rubbing their hands together in the hope that more people will be facing hardship in this country?.... get a grip.

I personally was worried about issues such as this...

People in Britain risk losing their “fundamental right to health” after Brexit, a barrister and public health professor have warned.

Tobacco and alcohol companies could win more easily in court cases such as the recent battle over plain cigarette packaging if the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights is abandoned, they wrote in the British Medical Journal (BMJ).

This means after Brexit, industry could have greater influence over laws regarding “pesticide residues in food, health and safety at work, management and disposal of hazardous substances, regulation of medicinal products, and air and water quality.”

Hopefully this will be addressed in full and resolved to protect us all when we do brexit.

I was going to reply but the emboldened bits completely voided any opinion you had.

If you can't come up with a solid counter argument then it's more dignified to simply admit that's the case. Reaching for reasons to invalidate opinions you dislike isn't good for discussion.

I didn't see any reaching, just a valid point.

Are you telling me that in your official capacity as a Moderator? Because I thought that insulting other FMs was a rule break. I don't debate with people who can't discuss without name calling because I don't waste my time on time wasters.

I've never seen Livia call other forum users names. That's what you do.

It didn't void my opinion... That remains pretty much as it was. It voided your reply as well, there isn't one :/ it's basically just you informing me you are not replying.

So thanks for that.
