If anyone had told me all those years ago that the industry which voted Brexit perhaps more than any other would be one of the first to start moaning when it was 'done' I'm not sure I'd have believed it. I don't understand how we got to where we have on this it ought to have been clear to a 3 year old that on leaving they would have more forms to fill in In which case, they seem to have allowed lots of pro-Brexit under-threes to vote in the referendum. Didn't several pro-Brexit MPs assure us that leaving the EU would allow us to 'make a bonfire of red tape' (or something similar)? why they aren't better prepared for that, makes no sense at all Unless there's something else going on here Indeed there is. Loads of Brexit supporters are finally waking up to the fact that they have been well and truly duped (although few are yet prepared to admit it). -- Ian |

Its already happening, but oddly enough the remoaning media is not reporting on it - unless it can be spun into 'removing wurkahs rights' etc. The war continues. -- Truth welcomes investigation because truth knows investigation will lead to converts. It is deception that uses all the other techniques. |

Well in fact you did. The reverse is true. Europhiles are finally seeing the reality of what they wanted to stay a part of, writ large in terms of utter incompetence, total disregard for international law, and total lack of compassion for the people who they allegedly represent, but who never elected them, and selection of European pharma (even when it doesn't work) to throw someone else's money at. Makes Stalin's Russia look like a picnic. -- "A point of view can be a dangerous luxury when substituted for insight and understanding". Marshall McLuhan |
