I was trying to point out that what was offered was not acceptable, because it would leave us with a situation that was not in our interests. Of course if you think it would have been in Britains self interest, I asked, given that you have voted to leave the E.U, because you feel it is in Britains self interest, and stuff what is good for Europe, whether you would have took the deal.

I voted to leave the EU but could easily have been persuaded to remain, if you really equate that with me accepting a nazi ruled europe out of ''self interest'' then there is little point in carrying on .

Obesity, diabetes and alcohol and drug-related illnesses have increased enormously though. That is a drain on the NHS resources. I agree that there are now treatments offered that were not available decades ago and that also drives up costs.

I cannot believe you just had the nerve to say that, and then not have the slightest idea as to why that would prove upsetting to the person you aimed that insult to or anyone else reading this thread for that matter. You are displaying the same intellectual capacity of a boiled potato.

You proffered it as a deal that would have been in British own self interest to take.

You think that's an appropriate thing to say? Christ what a **** you are.
Brilliant.
We've met once, briefly in a pub in Lewes, when I stopped in for twenty minutes to collect something from a friend. You later (on line, rather than at the time, in real life) professed that I was 'wet' for refusing to drink more than one pint (as I was driving). Its an interesting observation though - this autism thing. Its not something I've ever been told before, in any of the varied circles of my life.
Do you find that people often seem uncharacteristically uncomfortable in your presence?

This is appalling and torally unnecessary. Many posters have pointed out your errors and rather than accept that you were wrong you have carried on digging a bigger hole for yourself and now in an attempt to rescue yoursrlf you resort to unacceptable insults.
I would suggest you have a lie down for a week or so

Yep.
And I know of one chief exec who left her particular Trust in complete financial turmoil (not very far from here), saddled it with a MASSIVE deficit through sheer incompetence, got a big payoff to walk away, and promptly became...a recruitment consultant, headhunting for executive positions within the NHS. Perfect for her, as she'd obviously built up a whole network of contacts within the organisation in her time there. She's done very, very well for herself out of the NHS.
Depressing doesn't even cover it.

I asked another poster if he thought it was not at all in Britains self interest to fight the Nazi's.
Which prompted from you, "The Germans offered us an armistice, they would have europe, we would keep the empire, we turned them down."
Not only reinventing 20th century history, now trying to reinvent stuff you posted in this thread minutes ago!
I understand you believe Britain chose to fight the Nazi's just because it was the right thing to do, but it was not quite as simple as that. I also understand and am disgusted by your belief that everyone else in Europe "chose" to roll over and not fight, and if they died it was less heroic than Brits dying, because they had no choice, they were being invaded. Well in 1939, we had conscription, so little choice for our boys either, is their sacrifice less because they were conscripts rather than volunteers?
There is always a choice, often a bad one and a terrible one, and I hope we never have to make choices of that magnitude again.
You haven't met me, but I have been assessed and I do have autism (albeit very mildly). It is expressed in my obsession with numbers, as I convert everything into a numerate form.
I still think I make a contribution to society though, having developed coping mechanisms over the years.
My son has it too, more severely than me. He's 23 and unemployed for five years, but has spent his time trying to develop funghi that consume plastics as a solution to environmental waste. Between us we cope though.
If you are throwing it as an insult to someone else it's a bit harsh. No one chooses such a condition, no more than they would choose many other facets of their genetic makeup.

I said months before the vote that whatever way it went, nothing much would change, and I'm still of that view. We will pay almost the same to access the free market, and we will have to agree to freedom of movement to get it. We will also have to agree to most of the regulations in order to trade with europe. Any money we might save will be wasted on all of the negotiations. So, no, I wouldn't change my vote.
