    I will say any criticism of Brexit and its imagined or not consequences is deemed unpatriotic by some and used as a measure of people's Britishness.

    You pedantic old bugger.
    I drink a bottle of sauvignon blanc as a chaser before I crack open a beer and it stops me from getting drunk.

      For as long as you keep on getting all of your information from the same news sources?

        Point me in the direction of a news source that says Brexit is winning.

          Where is your evidence things are much worse here? The only actual data produced here (by me, above) shows that food inflation was actually marginally higher in the EU last year.

              Where did I say that?

                If you are of the opinion that things are pretty much the same and that inside or outside the EU doesn't make an enormous difference then we are on the same page! Great to agree!

                  The point I’m getting at is that things haven’t improved as a result of Brexit,which Brexiteers will put that down to wars and pandemics. At what point will they stop blaming the lack improvement on those factors? As I said upthread, I’m still waiting to see the benefits.

                      For me it has to come through in the next year or two. We left the EU about four weeks before covid hit. Ukraine hit immediately after that. Even the greatest brexit-phobe going would have to admit the timing was bad. I'm just glad it was sorted before covid hit.

                      All European economies have been rocked to the core by both things. The idea that Brexit was behind any of it is simply not true, and it's also true that quite plainly Covid interrupted much progress in that respect and in many other policy areas.

                      Nearly every govt in power during covid has been voted out or will be. None of this is unique to UK at all.

                        If the BBC is anti Christian then that's great and all I ask is that they carry on the good work !

                        God bless em

                              That should be a slam dunk Bob! I suspect James will find an excuse though. Well done for posting this. It’s actually really creepy seeing that in 2024.

                                Slam dunk?! 🤣 Do you honestly believe those kind of videos? If so, I don't think you can criticise MAGA types again!

                                What a load of nonsense. What part of the NHS has been sold to US insurance companies? What health rights have been taken away? Please tell me! The irony is it was EU membership if anything that was a threat to the NHS model.

                                And if you think there would be no queues in the healthcare system after two years of lockdowns, cancelled operations and the like then I have a daft left-wing attack piece video to sell you!

                                Google Irish healthcare and see what's happening there. The fact something happened 8 years ago you didn't like doesn't mean that everything since then is caused by that, and you well know it!
