Well no, I didn't say that did I ???

So you're saying (again, for the umpteenth time) that those that disagree with your politics are idiots. Interesting point, thanks.

So you're saying (again, for the umpteenth time) that those that disagree with your politics are gullible. Interesting point, thanks.

Well it seems quite duplicitous that you won't entertain cretinous comments when you're happy to make them. Unless of course you want to have a go at justifying calling me a fantasist with little grasp of my own thought processes? Is that what you think you're doing? Because it looks like you're...

You've changed your tune.

:rolleyes:

No I haven't. What's happened then? That doesn't mean the country can't succeed still. I'd like a PM that believes the country can succeed, not a PM that thinks we're ****ed. I moved on a couple of weeks ago, I'm ready for the challenges ahead. Plenty here are trying to say 'I told you so'...

As with recognising my bluntness and honesty, my title of resident pedant is actually an admission, rather than being a chosen style, and I say neither with self-satisfaction. :laugh:

Yes it is. It makes sense to support the EU when you're stuck in it, but when the chance comes to choose, you don't have to tow the line. He chose leave. Just as the prospective PMs are saying 'we're all brexiters now', as they don't have a choice. Because you're suggesting he's not standing for...

That's just a wild allegation you can't prove. Well it's obvious May believed in remain, so presumably her heart isn't in it? This is just silly. If he sided with remain because he wanted the PM job, then he'd go for the PM job. Unless he's been told he doesn't have the backing, in which case...

I agree that having the leader with the best skills is most important. I'm not even against the idea of a 'remainer', as they might be less likely to concentrate on limiting immigration at the expense of the economy. But Leadsom doesn't strike me as someone who'd ignore the economy or be a...

That's politicians for you. I don't know who would be the best (least bad) option, I just don't want to discount someone because they're not a career politician.

When Boris said he was supporting the leave campaign, he was ridiculed by remainers as an opportunist who just did it to get the PM job. Now he's not standing for the PM job you criticise him for running away. :facepalm: Everyone thought Cameron would have to step down if he lost, so he's done...

The argument was that the experts were biased, and saying what was in their own interests, rather than the interests of the country. That doesn't mean you wouldn't want a business expert running the country now the decision is behind us. One that backed Brexit, by the way. So is May the known...

Your argument against someone with business experience is one idiot. It's not a great reason not to have someone with experience. Well if she gets to be PM after a few years in politics, that's fairly savvy.

Why? I'm not sure career politicians are the answer, she has business experience.

I like Andrea Leadsom, but I'm not sure what she'll be pushing the EU for. I don't like May, but that doesn't matter. Gove is a tw@ though, hopefully he'll disappear.

Yes it would have been better for him to grow up. When Cameron won the general election, he didn't take the piss and laugh at those that voted Labour, he said he'd do his best for the whole country - as any PM would say. Well I certainly don't mind him talking up the UK, I'll be more bothered if...

So the other MEPs were drunk? Thanks god we left, there's taking the piss and there's taking the piss.
