Cherish your blue passports as you sit in an NHS A&E ward wondering where your £350 million a week went.

No denial of the fact that you were lied to by brexiteers. Just conveniently ignored. Any old berxit will do now, even if it damages the country.

So 17.4 million is the majority of a 45.7 million voting population. I can see now how you were easily fooled. Do stop making things up Stan

That 17.4m equates to less than 40% of the population so IF it all goes tits up, then we'll see what the actual majority of people think.

It will all be the Eu's fault then for giving the UK a bad deal.

Do you only class an election result as valid if 100% of voters vote for it? The turnout for the referedum was a record turnout far more than we get in general elections. I also find it odd British people wanting the country to do badly to prove themselves right. I have just looked at the last two posts nothing said of any significance or reason just slagging off because the national vote (over two years ago now) did not go to your liking. Tough ! If you want to rewrite history campaign for something useful like replaying the 2018 champions league final you might have more luck with that.

I think we were correcting your assertion that the majority of your countrymen will be happy with brexit when the actual number is less than 40% of the population. You are just making stuff up now and passing if off as fact Stan. I'm not British so I have no idea what you are talking about.

Also I'm not sure how many of that 40% will be happy with the Chequers Agreement which is as we all know Brexit in Name Only.

But you will have your shiny new blue passport. I suppose this would be a bad time to remind you that you could've had any colour you liked whilst in the EU, even blue.

As I've said many, many times, I accept the result (after more than a little moaning). But don't go quoting that 17.4m people is the majority of people in this country as it's not true. I think there were something like 16.8m that voted for remain and add those to the rest that didn't or couldn't vote and there you have the majority of people in this country.

17.4m people was a very small majority of those who voted. Big difference.

It was the majority of who voted that's all that matters in elections. More people want brexit in Britain than don't. That is the reality and I am afraid you are going to have to accept that unless you are one of those who wants another referedum ?

Well you have accepted Brexit in name only. By the time the negotiations are finished what the rest of us have to accept won't differ much from what we have now.

Exactly. The majority of those who voted NOT the majority of the country.
