All they do now is moan about extra costs and impositions placed upon them.
They’re all as thick as pig shit.
It's the remainers who are moaning about that.
Except we're not. We actually warned you about things like this but Brexiters dismissed it as "Project Fear" and more "Remoaner scaremongering".
You avoided answering BL's question, "Why did anyone vote leave, didn’t they even consider the consequences?"
BL made a sweeping statement, so I made one back. I expect you didn't realise that.
Hardly sweeping and to help you I highlighted the pertinent bit - "didn’t they even consider the consequences?"
He's still waiting for an answer to that.

You hold all the cards now.
Play them wisely.

We really don't. We have nothing, zero, zilch, it was all built on promises. I'm seeing it as a learning process like you do with puppies.

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.

Well, we're worth it.
I would rather go to china. Your guns are gone with a fake bill (a bill is one page, and receipt the conclusion of transactions!) passed in less than three days written by lobbyists and not read by elected cartel members! What are the words used most often... good faith, temporary, etc...
ie, introduction of great britains trade act in 1707. Parliament was unable to conclude trade taxis, so introduced a temporary amendment clause still used today to subjugate and extort revenue for a tyrannical ponzi scheme...
Who’s trading Taxis? I use Bolt.

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

You're forgetting how we're viewed Stoo.
This wasn't about the good of the country or what's best for the people this was only ever about who got to lead the Conservative party because British people are so stupid they think Social Justice is a bad thing.
David Cameron rode on the anti-Europe train convinced that the lines of kant and rhetoric would have no real world effect whatsoever. Sure some Eastern Europeans were denied mortgages, some Black people got killed and some Jews got attacked by 'nutters' but the 'salt of the Earth' white working class bloke who had been hoodwinked into voting Tory would always vote for what the Tory Leader told them to.
There was not one moment of consideration given to how Brexit would happen if the people were to actually vote for it and David Cameron got out of dodge pretty damn sharpish once it did. He gambled but all he lost was office - and even that just meant he could spend all his time on his more lucrative lobbying side hustle.
After that there was a deal to be made with the Lib Dems, Labour and the bulk of Tory MPs at that time who knew the kind of Brexit the ERG were looking for was economic suicide. We could have had membership of the EEA so the Tories could say they delivered on Brexit but no real damage was possible but Theresa May had to promise 'not a soft Brexit or Hard Brexit but a Red, White and Blue Brexit' - so the soft Brexit was out. Of course she couldn't deliver on this promise and was eventually ousted but there was that consultancy and speech circuit again - she made over £1 million in the year after leaving office - well over he PMs salary.
Guaranteed that Labour would not and the Lib Dems could not support the convoluted schemes required and pushed into a corner by the DUP Theresa May got ousted by vague utopian promises of a UK with all the advantages of EU membership but bound by none of the conditions and Boris became Tory Leader.
Right now Boris knows it's a complete balls up. He knows he's been played into a blind corner and there's no way out for him, but when he goes there will still be the consultancies and the speaking tours and the blue rinse conservatives associations who'll pay him a few thousand pounds for a twenty minutes speech and he'll suffer no consequences for his actions - consequences are for little people like us.

You got all that from my post? Wow! You lefties certainly have vivid imaginations.

Look at yourself before you accuse Brits of being "stupid". Has it occurred to you that people made up their own minds, they weren't hoodwinked by anyone, and leavers don't regret the way they voted? If you want to be "Irish", mind your manners when you talk about Brits.
