Don't feed the trolls especially when they have nothing much to say.

I know, I should have learned by now but I fell for it again.

My idea of democracy is obviously different to yours, in my book over half is a majority.

You say just over half as though that is not a majority, then go on to say uneducated voters damaged the ship beyond repair. Well it's usually said that uneducated voters are less likely to vote, so presumably if they had voted the majority would have been much higher.

You presumably don't want to,be associated with the USA now that Trump has been democratically elected using their system.

That also explains a lot, you presumably think he shouldn't be president because you don't like him.

 

Amusing that you talk about majority voting and Trump isn't it. You know that he got considerably less than half the vote by numbers?

We haven't seen any evidence of that, all the economic indicators are good despite all the forecasts of doom and gloom

Even the level of the pound which desperate remoaners are jumping on is about the same level it was two or three years ago, and a lot of economists are saying it was too high anyhow and is now helping exports.

Trumps team are also saying we will be at the front of the queue for trade deals instead of at the back as Obama was threatening.

Cheer up, things can only get better.

The pounds has NEVER been this low against the dollar before.

 

It IS helping exports, but not imports obviously, and we can't export anything unless we first import the raw materials.

 

Things will get a lot worse, and brexiters seem to actually revel in this fact, or be in complete denial.

I honestly believe it will all work out for the best, but we'll have to see.

 

That's starting to sound like an article of faith...

Your definition of democracy is very loose it seems.

It appears to me as if you mean 'just over half of us agree, therefore it is our will that you must follow us to destruction'

 

If the ship is sinking, it is only because the uneducated leave voters damaged it beyond repair.

You seriously want to be associated with a person like Trump?

That explains a lot.

 

 

 

Oh hello. Another member of the remainers' "you don't agree with me so you're stupid" club.

Allow me my standard introduction: You lost. Deal with it.

That is hardly the way to make friends and influence people, is it?

 

It seems since this rabble of brexiters made their presence felt, that gentlemanly British courtesy has been very much lacking.

Buck up, my friend, you are letting the side down.

You referred to us brexiters collectively as uneducated.

You thereby set the tone for my reply.
