It may be the worst decision of modern times, but it's the result of a democratic process.
I get that there are a large number who disagree with the decision, but that's the danger of choice, sometimes you don't get the outcome you want.

So, you think that the majority are now getting the outcome that they wanted? The outcome they voted for?

We are lumbering on over the cliff so are 52% of lemmings still happy to go over??

I obviously wasn't paying attention before the rederendum that part of having our cake and eating it was to ready our Royal Navy to take on our closest friends and Nato Allies.

I assume that's Beachy Head your referring to. I'd say its a darn good vantage point, before we jump, to watch the sinking of the combined Spanish and French Armada mkII coming at us with those fishing nets.

What is wrong with protecting our own interests? Time you looked at how lucky you are to live in the UK.
Closest friends ? You're having a laugh. The French couldn't give a monkeys about us!

Dare I respectfully suggest Oldage that your opinion of the french is based on either ignorance or blind prejudice, and is probably the result of a lack of lived experience with our french neighbours. I speak french fluently, and have many good friends there. They are genuinely disappointed at our decision, and are as perplexed about it as many Brits are. They would be delighted if we changed our mind, accept that it won’t happen, and in none of the many conversations i’ve had over there during the last four years has there been the slightest indication that they don’t give a monkeys.

If you’ve had a different experience I would be interested to hear it, but as you don’t do debate I won’t hold my breath for a response.

Helseltine's view.Who cares what he thinks?

Why don't you actually listen to and address the point he makes instead of just shouting "Ya-Boo! Nobody likes you!"? This Trumpian tactic of always attacking and rubbishing the speaker instead of engaging with the evidence and the argument presented is the most depressing and worrying development of the modern age.

Heseltine? What does he know? Well for the record - 27 years in parliament, former deputy Prime Minister and former secretary of state for...... Trade & Industry, Defence, the Environment, Transport, & minister of state for Aerospace & shipping. By any measure one of the major figures in late 20th century British politics. But what does he know?

How dare he pass comment on this bloody shower leading us over the cliff edge like lemmings? How dare every one of the 5 living former Prime ministers (Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron & May) all protest at the self-defeating stupidity of us threatening to break international law in a desperate attempt to get us out of the Brexit hole this bunch of chancers have dug for us? What do they know eh? :facepalm:

Get your facts right. I didn't say what does he know? I said who cares what he thinks? As for the other 5 former prime ministers they do have something in common, all losers.You can bleat ,throw tantrums do whatever you want but it won't change a thing.

You have your view and I have mine. You will not change your view nor will I change mine . I am delighted we have left the EU.

It will go down, as one the biggest mistakes, this Country has ever made.

Lucky ?! ... I did used to think so as I was growing up but, as I got older and wiser, after working abroad, I realised we weren't the dogs bo££ox we think we are in the eyes of the rest of the world.

And like Mervyn, I also spent time working in France.(although unlike Mervyn my french would just about get me by) It was during the late eighties and still have a number of good friends there, who at the time had respect for British business and our word, but now are just puzzled as to what we have done to ourselves.

You might hate them Oldage but the people I know don't hate us and are really sad to see us go.

Even now, with your Trumpian rhetoric, you still imagine that all these posts represent nothing more than a bunch of bad losers throwing hissy fits. Your head must be a very dark and scary place to live, to see the world in such playground terms after presumably many years' experience of life. I don't envy you.

"A bunch of bad losers throwing hissy fits" ,I couldn't put it any better myself. I certainly don't envy your pompous attitude towards those who disagree with you. Your adulation of the EU and France in particular is nauseating.
