So here is a case where you are not tracking back over posts, why ever not?
I think you are looking at events like this, when they arise, through a different lens to the vast majority of people in this country and in Europe.
When this point started on this thread, the only point that was made by me was that I speculated that the culprit would not be a native German.......a point that was proven.
This speculation was based on the historical precedent of similar such attacks......this was not a wild stab in the dark, (no pun intended) just rational analysis.
The problem for you (and others that see the world the way you do) is that you are trying to create a narrative with these attacks that does not reconcile with reality.
PS. I take your point on Jo Cox but wasn't she shot and stabbed.........minor detail, doesn't affect the sentiment.

No luckily enough a few have slipped through the net unscathed, my cousins son is one of those few.
Anyway, we've run rings around the brexiteers, they've resorted to type and gone bonkers and it's undoubtedly been fun but time for the grown ups to get back to business.
Here's some hard truths hidden in last week's budget we are going to have to get used to in a post referendum Britain. Think you've helped improve Britain for your children? Think again. They won't be thanking you. It ain't pretty.

Problem for the remainers though is they won when it mattered which is sadly something none of you can get over. Its a bit like being jilted for the 1st time you always pine over the past when the future is always brighter !!!!

A thoughtful piece for both sides of the argument?

If I've understood your waffle, I think this is a bit more serious than being dumped.
You know what I think Mr Clamp, I think you should move abroad and get out of this hell hole?
Why would I do that? My friends and family, my job, my town, my pets, my property, Sussex, all in the UK. Why would I leave all that because a tiny, tiny majority were pursuaded to make a very, very poor decision.
No thanks, I love my country. I shan't abandon it to you lot.

Nice little plug for what appears to be a Quango, of which the writer has been appointed The Chair. Lucrative, one wonders? Worryingly, the IPPR Commission on Economic Justice is there to solve the problems of shaping Britain in a post-Brexit world, while not appearing to come up with any concrete ideas, not in this piece anyway.

Another balanced article on how we're still not ready although Article 50 could be triggered as soon as Wednesday.

It does at least recognise the need for a policy for investing in innovation rather than dreamily anticipating a return to the 1950s.

I think someone else stated either on this thread or another related one. Automation will kill more jobs in the next 25yrs than Brexit ever will. This is the issue that will affect all. Leaving the EU is just a minor blip
I think if you look back a poster stated exactly that.
Just like you and the others who predicted a win for Remain.....who got beaten...fool.
I see gobshite Geldof made a fool of himself at a corporate city do conference at Heathrow. A shit Brexit speech. See the comments. I wonder how Geldof made his 30+ milions from a couple of average records. Give us the live aid receipts "Sir" Bob.
We've yet to see. The negotiations will start soon then we will see who ultimately wins.
Which is utter rubbish for so many reasons.
There are many, many industries that could have easily been fully automated for years. This is deliberately not done as it would eventually lead to the collapse of industry, including their own. That's widely recognised.
