My book about Brexit is out!

[websaway]

I have no self interest in leaving the EU. It appears the efforts to remain are such a temptation to your self interest that you can not resist churning it relentlessly, even to the point of writing a book to cash in. That's why I say you are shameless. Being shameless is not meant as an insult, it's a popular position that people now take to enhance their aims.

That's a bit harsh. If we flipped that around. I'd like to know how many brexiteers in the cabinet are profiting from people starving to death or going without their medicines. As many on here will laugh, but people are going to die. Hopefully nobody on here.

Hello Edwin I noticed you didn't reply to the question about how brexit has affected you since the referendum result? because my life has changed very little and brexit could happen at the end of October or not we still after three years and lots of talk don't know.

It may be that less people die as a result of tighter border control and the end to freedom of movement . My motivation to leave though is nothing other than to be a free country, free of an ever increasing movement towards a federal state. You either want it one way or the other so you have a vote, which we did and leave was carried. We should be looking forward on that basis and not re running the referendum result which had the government backed leave would have had a far greater majority.

I deliberately didn't answer that part because I don't think that's of anyone else's business, sorry. Personal stuff's personal, you know

To be fair it was a bit of a loaded question from yourself. As the question seemed to have been more of an attempt for you to have him say "nothing has changed", therefore why are you arguing Brexit was a bad idea.

You were hunting for him to give a specific answer for you to jump on.

I mean, global warming has never affected myself directly, so should I not care about the potential effects of it in the future and what I could do now to try and help prevent it?

 

[websaway]

I take it you overlooked all the benefits the EU bring us?

Yes because thats immaterial as we have elected to leave. So only considering factors outside the Union. Although it's been turned into an economic debate, the reasons for leaving were for self determination, purely and simply. We as a nation should not be for sale.

I wasn't old enough to vote in the referendum, I can't help but feel that a lot of the older people who voted for an independent UK are now dead. I'm not sure on the stats but wonder if @Edwin can confirm that demographically we'd now likely win a referendum.

Out of interest do you believe the world will end in a few years due to "climate change", there are more than two genders and trump is racist?

 

[pugyrob]

We voted to leave. Democracy . Another referendum is like saying best of three in a coin toss

This is what the remainer elite who know better than the people have done to our parliament.

It won't end but science says that global population will drop to less than 250 million. The gender thing isn't something I have followed. Yes, Trump is certainly a racist imo, look at his record. He's a denier of climate change and pro brexit so a very dangerous individual who shouldn't have been allowed to stand for President.

It's a very large jump to call someone a very dangerous individual because they're pro-brexit and a denier of climate change.

The whole brexit thing does have a lot of ifs/buts/maybes from both a leave and remain side so Brexit as a whole is more of an opinion and predictions things. Opinions and predictions are quite often wrong.

Climate change is another opinion/debate matter also. While the science looks like it's quite heavily pointing towards global warming being real, we can't actually prove it per say. Just because evidence heavily points in one direction, doesn't make that thing a fact.

Can you argue his opinions may be stupid/dumb depending on your own view-point? Yes. You can't call someone dangerous for having opinions different to yours, for things like above, that no-one can accurately and scientifically prove with 100% certainy.

One of the nicer things about this place is that we typically don't have to hear about everyone's politics. As such I'll exit this thread forthwith!

We didn't vote. It was a referendum. It was a question on potential. Purely advisory and certainly not a vote. There was no indication on the potential consequences or any indication of terms of leaving. I suspect if there was an actual vote now the outcome would be different now reality has sunk in.

Was not looking for detailed personal information and a yes or no tells us very little about your personal life.

Was genuinely interested as to what drove you to give up three years of yourself to something you have no control over, try to explain what make you want to send 50,000 tweets and write a book

I care deeply about my family, brexit and country but have only felt the need to send a hand full of tweets..

 

[LCHappy]

I'm sorry but, if you deny climate change you're a bit of an idiot. Secondly, Trump is extremely dangerous. Who the hell gave that guy a Twitter account?

Absolutely, a few years ago our teacher in 6th form warned us of something called "agreeable deniers". People that agree with climate change but say it will only rise 2c by the end of the century. Anyone that doesn't agree it will rise by 4c by 2100 is just as bad as those that say it won't rise at all. Infact, they are probably worse.

 

[RobM]

Agreed. I remember back at school in the 80s they told us the sea level would rise 15 metres by the year 2000. Now I have to swim to work.

That was the oil companies like when they made this video to get people to burn more oil. Glad you didn't fall for it though.

Brexit will be wonderful for the UK!

I know Brussels from the converging talks of Turkey from 2008 to 2013. The UK has no need to feed the parasites in Brussels and in Greece who drive Porsche with no solid income other than robbing tourists. Even though I may be violating the opinion volcano principle of R. Dobelli but I believe with quite founded facts that EU is only good to bureaucrats in the Brussels and the robbers and liars in the south of Italy Spain and Greece.

An anecdote: we went to Spain for a technical visit to see how they built the high speed rail network. EU funds only the socially-feasible (increasing accessibility, reducing time-wasted in traffic, helping climate change etc.) while monetary zero or limited feasible projects. Spanish experts told us how they dubbed Brussels by only calculating "the rail stations" as a separate projects while parting the infrastructure as another dedicated project of the same rail line. Anyone who see the gigantic high speed rail station in Zaragoza, which was empty and will empty forever because of demand would understand me.

Your money has gone to Spanish high speed rail, Greek motorways and Brussels chocolate sellers. And don't worry nobody will die because of EU's food shortage. It could even make you lighter.

Even the Europe should exit EU!

Edit 1: Besides who the hell are we to talk after the British people decided to leave.

Edit 2: You should execute the Brexit as soon as possible since the world watches that dumb and shocking debates at House of Commons. One can really perplexed by the degree of stupidity and tell himself that how a great nation like UK can be governed by a bunch retards like them!
