Given the fanatical unwavering views of the poster in question I think my concerns are warranted.

 

He’s a big lad. Let him speak for himself

 

Well it's a public forum, so we all comment on each others, unless you just pm each or chat in the pub instead.

Point stands, predicting something doesn't imply promoting it. Often it's the contrary.

My issue was really down to you taking that route as a lazy 'argument winner' .

Ignoring the view of a large proportion of the electorate is thin ice. Some will take it as typical politician behaviour others will drift to the extremes. Either way, it's not big or clever.

I notice hundreds turned out at the People Vote Campaign in Sheffield.

 

https://www.thestar.co.uk/news/campaigners-gather-in-sheffield-to-call-for-people-s-vote-on-brexit-deal-1-9534043

 

Lord Hattersley, who was due to speak at the event but could not attend because of health reasons was very patronising in saying ""They voted by a small majority to leave the union, but they had no idea what leaving the union meant."

I doubt, after reading this thread and seeing the shambles in parliament, anyone could be under any illusion... he is absolutely right! (IMHO)

Let's just ignore them then, and do what you prefer.

He doesn't want all the silly racist Leave voters disenfranchised then rounded up and put in remedial schools and work houses? Thank heavens.

I've no idea, neither of us mentioned rounding them up... you could suggest it since it appears you're the only one suggesting it :thumbsup:

Let’s do this another way.

 

Who/what does he predict will be attacked, and who does he predict will be the perpetrator?

 

Locky? Who is in for it?

I think he wants them to keep their jobs, their homes, their rights, and (what is currently left of) their public services.

 

My view too. The last thing I want deep down is for people to be damaged through their own stupidity. I do suspect they will need to have a taste of what they’ve done to make them understand but it would be better to avoid that.

 

Lets be honest when it all goes wrong then the likes of Rees-Mogg are going to say ‘it’s what you wanted’

In his post he was talking about extremists and said he wouldn't get involved in anything like that. Are you implying he would? I really don't get what you are on about, beyond trying to paint a picture of normal people being violent.
