Absolutely. I think we all tend to respond emotionally first, but then it then becomes important to reflect on feelings and consider if they are rational and sensible. In my opinion, many Brexit Supporters didn't get that far!

When the Brexit controversy was at its most intense, I remember one commentator pointing out that, for a significant number of Leave voters, the issue was emotional rather than rational; and you cannot reason with emotion. Looking again at the language and content of @bazbha's post, I think s/he...

Your personal definition of Brexit success is not an issue; that's your business... but your comment in brackets is clearly provocative and vacuous. The Leave lobby set out specific goals by which we can measure its success and judge it more impersonally and objectively. This is what we can...

That's another false statement. Whatever you say, the Brexit lobby made huge claims to get people to vote out that they either could not deliver or had no intention of doing so. It may be boring for you to see mendacity called out after such a long time, but the fact that it happens restores my...

You are right, where are MouldyBoots, Footie Genius, Pastafarian etc when you need their viewpoint as opposed to when you were sick of reading the same tropes?

I suspect that the only real residual benefit for hard line Leavers is that Brexit has divided the nation and p****ed off Remainers.. That's not very ambitious or constructive, but there you go...

Although it may prove to be irrelevant, my last comment on this is be careful what you wish for. I have been a manager of a 'team' over a period of years and we experienced highs and lows in motivation at different times that were caused by circumstances partly or wholly out of our control...

He always said he was honest and that is an honest comment. I think identifying the truth is the first step in putting it right. He is human and with such high aspirations for the club he probably does feel deflated by the injuries and the results. Rather that than Potter's 'fans should remember...

So why are so many reasonable people embarrassed/affronted when they see the George Cross? Some Brits from ethnic minorities are intimidated by the sight of it. Here is one piece of evidence and I don't believe there is anything 'lazy' about drawing attention to it...

The big challenge for real patriots is to retrieve symbols of our beautiful country from racist zealots who have somehow stolen them and who parade them as a means to fragment the cohesion of our society and generate division.

I have supported the Albion since the 1966/67 season. Over that long period my enthusiasm has fluctuated according to a range of factors including my personal and economic circumstances etc but generally not according to how well the team have been doing. It seems to me inevitable that match...

Evidence?

He's terminally unlucky at thinking; you won't get a plausible answer..

I absolutely agree with all of this. The whole thing took a wrecking ball to the tenuous cohesion of UK society and Cameron did not put in any 'safety precautions' in the in/out vote; the Remain efforts before the vote were pathetic.... and it was all Cameron's responsibility..... and that act...

Well, I think the tories aligned themselves so completely with Brexit after the cull of tory remainers that the two are inextricably linked....

Just to add that while I have compassion for the deceived and nothing but contempt for the deceivers, for those posters on here who persisted in celebrating false claims of Tory Brexit success it has been hard to feel anything but distain...

Cameron was the entitled Etonian who introduced damaging levels of austerity and completely mismanaged the Referendum, thereby creating the opportunity for narcissists and grifters including Truss and Johnson to rise through the ranks. He is ultimately responsible for the awful state we are in...

I haven't read all the comments so please excuse me if the point has already been made. The fake choking issue in the match was disappointing to say the least, and signalled to me the difference between White and McAllister. Whether consciously or subconsciously I think that act signalled the...
