Consequences?

How has your life changed since Brexit?

Do you live in fear and dread every day like Stooo does?

The freedom of movement I once enjoyed has been seriously curtailed.

You made up a list - can you post some links?

Page 4 - what you keep deflecting from.


That's the list you made up. Do you have any links to show those are big problems?

So you considered the consequences, the loss of industries, peoples jobs, their homes, and thought "yep i'm cool with that, sod 'em"?

Also, did you think about paying to go to Europe, or did you think about kitemarks? Don't bother to lie. :laughing:

If Scotland ever get independence, will you suddenly be telling the Scots how you warned them that things might not go as well as they would have liked?


Had I known about having to pay 7 euros to go to Europe at the time of the ref, I might have voted differently. :pmsl:

It's the end of the world as we know it.

Moaning about Brexit has become a full time hobby for some - it's got inside their heads and is playing with their minds.


I wish I'd known about kitemarks. :bawlin:

It's amazing to me that anyone would want to have any decisions made outside of their country.

Fuck that noise. Handle your own shit.


Great in theory just like communism and working out in the same way...

This is what secession looks like and it ain't pretty :mrgreen:


It's actually great in practice, unless you're a fan of serfdom.

I guess serfdom is the new MAGA word of the week.

And of course being from Texas he won't even know when it was abolished, if he was from a state closer to US average for educational attainment he might have a shot but Texas ... Nah.

Taking just Honda alone - 3,500 employees with a further 3,500 in the supply chain so thats 7,000 people out of work thanks to your vote.

I'm trying to work out if you're having a psychotic episode or just trolling.

You do understand that it was the Brexiter who was complaining about the £7 charge don't you?

It was carefully explained to them, and with some considerable patience, that the charge applied to all third countries and the UK - having left the EU as the Brexiter wanted - is now a third country.

If you're perfectly happy paying the extra £7 please explain to your fellow Brexiters it - along with the £440 million a week the Bank of England says the UK has lost in trade due to Brexit - is the cost of Brexit.

I don't do MAGA "words". You keep forgetting that I think Trump is much like you, a pompous dickhead. Remember, the world isn't binary.

And you u can't help but not embrace serfdom. It's part of your DNA.

I'm talking green card insurance which I will need for every EU country and some will no longer be covered. Prior to batty Brexit I didn't need any of that nonsense.

I don't think any of them have viewed that clip at all! :roll:

You can still move freely around Britain. Unless covid restrictions stop you. I doubt very much you were popping over to europe every chance you got :shell:
ABTW, people can still move freely around it just cost a few extra euros :dunno:

But now you are a British citizen again, instead of an EU citizen.

I think that's much of the problem. I don't know why, but some folks took a greater sense of pride in being an EU citizen. I guess you were a member of a bigger club?

I know I wouldn't want to to be a North American citizen..

Fuck that.

I ask if you understand that by being a Texan Citizen you're also an American citizen but I don't think you do.

It will start the personal abuse now because it's being back into a corner
