    I read this light hearted piece the other day. Sad but true.

    UK We want a rebate on fees
    EU Ok
    UK We don't want to be in the Euro
    EU Ok
    UK We don't want to be in the Schengen either
    EU Ok
    UK We want a restriction on benefits until people have been here for some time
    EU Ok
    UK We want to stop child benefits being paid to kids who are not here
    EU Ok
    UK We want to kick out people who come here that don't work and can't afford to keep themselves.
    EU Ok, but you can already do this
    UK WE want lots of preferential treatment that the other countries don't get.
    EU Errr, we can't give you that unless all the other countries agree
    UK Don't give us what we want and we will leave
    EU That's a bit of an over reaction, but it is your choice
    UK OK we're out of here
    EU Bye then
    UK Now we are leaving we want ALL of the things we had before
    EU Errr, it doesn't work like that
    UK If you don't give us what we want, we'll leave with nothing
    EU (Scratches head) Errr, ummm, ok then.
    UK We really mean it, we are prepared to walk away with nothing just to teach you a lesson
    EU Bye (again). - Scratches head.

    Yay, everything is turning out well. Vera Lynn. Bluebirds over Dover. Down with decimalisation and up with the tarriff wars. Who do we pillage first - India?

    I don't believe anyone on the Brexit side of this debate has stated that Remainers are "lying scum", "a bunch of lying blow hards and crypto-fascists", "jerks" or "devious creeps", words that have been deployed by an individual who has decided not to accept the democratic decision of the British public and who belongs to a party hell-bent on undermining and/or reversing the Brexit process.

    Some people will believe anything written in the red top press: "The Sun Sez" so it must be true!:rolleyes:

    That'll be the truth according to the Remoaners, then. The reality is somewhat different.

    "Don't believe everything you read in the newspapers", never heard that saying before?

    Listen to what the Government tells us and nothing else.

    Remoaners? Blue TIT. That's just posts in the last 10 minutes! When I have time I can dig out more. Pointless though, some of us can take the name calling for what it is (not that I partake in such things), others cannot.

    Just relax Bluebird and just let the Brexit experience wash over you and flush all that bitterness and anxiety away that you have inside you :)

    You don't watch any of Andrew Neil's shows, then, on the BBC? He regularly describes those who won't accept the referendum result as "Remoaners". I've even heard the term used during a news programme. You'd better write a letter to the Guardian informing them that their tame broadcaster is off-message!

    And isn't Blue Tit a rather attractive avian?

    Neither of those terms comes remotely close to the insults our side has been subjected to by one of your folk - not by you, I hasten to add.

    Firstly, you are indicating I believe everything I read in the papers. I don't even buy the papers.

    Secondly, you are proposing that I listen to one side of the story (the Government's) and nothing else. I'm a natural skeptic and prefer to read from more than one source.

    There you go again with your ridiculous assumptions.

    I listen to the words of the Prime Minister and the Brexit team, newspapers are always trying to make a story bigger than it actually is to sell newspapers.

    Gibraltar is going nowhere my friend :)

    The bitter taste should have been so much diluted by now after this amount of time that any normal folk would think it unnoticeable by now...
    Unfortunately I reckon that bitter taste will be forever stuck in his throat.
    Poor bloke... Very sad really...
    "Blue birds over...." What a happy and victorious song!!
