No I'm afraid your constant repeating it doesn't make it "perfectly fine", it was your usual aggressive deflection from the subject of the post you responded to. You had no contribution to make to the actual conversation, so you did your usual and deflected away from it. ET's a big boy, he can speak for himself and pointing out the flaws in what he was saying about netting off tariff's is not patronising anyone.
Sorry Steve, but my post #1565 had nothing to do with ET. I replied to your pretty much relentless bullying remarks to Colin B that add nothing but get you a lot of ‘likes’. I put the snide parts of your post I quoted in bold to make that clear.
Regarding the "you never used to do that" - I used to give your awkwardness the benefit of the doubt but came to realise that it's deliberate baiting. You retain the ambiguity around your vote on Brexit purely to enable you to play both ends against the middle as it goes tits up, there is nothing sacred about your voting intentions on any other subject.
A referendum is not the same as making clear whether someone has fundamentally left or right wing views. Should I vote in another referendum it is likely I won’t report to you and the pfm massive which option I selected. I’m not playing anything.
Besides, blaming "hard remainers" is patently absurd. You cannot blame the people who warned that Brexit would be a bad idea, gave predictions (reduced trade, NI border problems, reduced inward investment) that have come to pass, and then voted against the idea.
Of course hard remainers in parliament have responsibility. The remain majority make-up of the UK parliament at the time of the referendum and right through to the enabling of Johnson and the far right tories is a well known fact. They voted against a soft brexit many times. There was even a chance to get rid of the govt and form a temporary coalition ahead of a GE but they killed that stone dead as well. How on earth are you unaware of this?
Nonsense claims of
predictions by hard remainers as well. Talk about a re-write of history.
Ahead of the referendum, which is when predictions, or rather
campaigning actually counted, most
predictions made on this forum were about a collapse of sterling and how it will be impossible to go on holiday anywhere. There was nothing, or at least not much about NI. That came mostly after the referendum when other people started to talk about it. Many of the posts here were complaints about the leave campaign and early accusations of racism against anyone not making it absolutely clear they intended to vote remain. It was all rather unsavoury stuff but useful practice for what was to come. I get why you want to re-write it, sean.
Some brexiters just need to "man the f*&k up" and own the shit they've enabled.
Blimey! Well, to use similar words to yourself, those trying to dismiss the outcome of a democratic referendum just need to "man the f*&k up" and own the shit they've enabled. The ‘shit’ being a hard brexit when it didn’t have to be like that.
Apologises in advance to the group, I’m sure that’s another awkward post.
