  1. I am totally against a second referendum myself

    reason?  it would be very hypocritical of me.  I voted to leave because the EU is not democratic  and a second referendum=m no matter which way the vote goes would also be undemocratic. 

     

    the sooner this is over and done with the better everyone will fee  apart from those idiots who want to start it all again.

    Considering the Leave vote is based on future events potentially happening, please explain the fact part. 

    Real facts are things that have happened, not assumptions on what might happen. That politicians have repeatedly flat out lied to the public is a fact. That the economy has take a hit is a fact. That company’s are relocating is a fact. That the EU, for all it’s faults, has delivered a high standard of living, sometimes in face of British political disagreement, is fact. That the EU has forced a better distribution of funds in the country is fact. That the EU has provided easier movement for employment is a fact. 

    I could go on if you like

    my point in a nutshell Matt  please remember your words in the future

     only if you want to I doubt I will be bothered by what you say,  but some others may be.

    Anything from politicians is propaganda. Unfortunately, the Remain argument is based on fact, whereas Leave has been based on arrogant delusions. 

    I don’t know how anyone can see any win other than 1, undemocratic, number. 

    Matt I have kept quiet on this up until now  but you are so wrong I think I need to correct you

    Anything from politicians is propaganda. Unfortunately, the Leave argument is based on fact, whereas Remain has been based on arrogant delusions.

     

    no I do not believe this line anymore than I believe yours/  but if you want a balanced argument you must stick to real facts

     

  6. ok we lost a game  but we will get them at home later in the season.  Getting beaten is not good though, and yet I feel immensely proud of our team  we are improved over last season and still improving every game.  I think we will finish just about 4th this season.  god alone knows what next year will bring  but only a few weeks to find out.
