Not very charitable to the party you once voted for, did they snub you at all selby?

One referendum and two general elections down the road and still some on here can't accept it. Eventually everyone should come together for the future benefit of Britain. I suspect our differences with Germany and Japan after the war will have been put aside quicker than some will get over Brexit.

I don't see anyone saying Leave didn't win. Or are you saying people aren't allowed to criticise us leaving? Should we just blindly celebrate something we believe will make the country worse off?
Last week I listened to a programme that actually had looked back at what was claimed by the remain and Brexit sides of the debate before the referendum. They found that the remain side told percentage wise more untruths than the Brexit side, although they said it was now difficult for the ordinary person to check up because the remain site had been taken down after they had published their results. They said nothing about the quality of lies though. But personally I don't find it half as annoying as when the full details of where the EU was going was brushed over, and the full result of the Maastricht Treaty was with held from the general public and us not having a vote on it at the time, knowing that in the UK there would have been a very good chance of it being rejected then in the UK. I would rather have people tell porkies that you have a very good chance of being exposed as such, but have a chance to accept or reject them than be marginalised and ignored as we were with that treaty, and I think was part of the reason that a large proportion voters of a certain age voted the way they did, to some it was retribution on the EU and John Major, and him with others like Milliband who had lost face so recently nailing their colours to the remain mast so vocally again cemented a lot of older voters minds to get out. They and the remain side just didn't realise it. The remain side had all the old snide faces leading it from their past, and the Greens, Liberals, and Starmer going back and forward to Brussels by the back door just nailed their fate.
Don't bother asking for details, it's always 'something I heard'.
Well seeing as this thread has been superceded by events isn't it time to call it a day and close it?
DO what is the title of this thread? It's turning into a political argument
Useless Netherlands Postal service, we sent a tracked parcel on the second of December to Alkmaar which arrived in Holland on the 3rd of December and was finally delivered to Trudy our friend yesterday. I make that well done Royal Mail and useless Dutch postal service.
