A thank you to Brexiteers.

Unfortunately for Portugal it's one of the easiest countries to emigrate to - possibly the lowest income requirement, plus reciprocal healthcare - so even people on just a UK state pension could do it providing they can afford to buy a house - and they're very cheap in some places too.
Spain has priced-out even those Brexiters who are prepared to move there permanently rather than just holiday when it suits them.

At the time (not at the time, about 3 years ago) i remember him saying he thought there were probably too many immigrants and also that he expected nothing much would change after brexit, by which he meant in his own life, he thought it wouldn't impact him personally. Now he's trying to figure out if he can move to Portugal.

Is this the same yoga retreat owner who was thinking about moving to Portugal last year before his recent conversion?
 
The bunch of cunts are all leave voters.
Knowingly or unknowingly leave voters have called this on, and even if it was unknowingly, leave voters remain cunts.
Yeah remain voters like me are probably cunts too, but in my view nothing like as bad as leave voters with their smug destructive attitude, finger jabbing beside their mock gallows with all their hatred on show.
Still leave voters, on here they call themselves Lexiters so I understand, can enjoy their victory.

We definitely need Barbary and StakerOne here to underline and expand on why Brexit is a good and necessary and democratic thing for us all, because nobody's listening to the fart in the wind that Lexit represents anyway. We need to hear from some conspiraloon / orange / alt-right positions instead, because after all they're the real Leave constituency. Without irony!

Leaving your pre-conceptions aside ...

Here's my top reasons why I didn't want to continue EU membership.

1. If leaving in 2016 wasn't hard enough, leaving in 10 years time would have been impossible.
2. If we stayed in, there would have been the danger that we would have eventually been dragged into the Euro. Most of the pro-Euro crowd I've ever met in the UK are horrifically middle-class and love the place for skiing trips, telling me it would be great because holiday goers wouldn't have to exchange currency. They didn't have an answer for German dominance at the ECB which is based in Frankfurt. The UK economy is way too different than Germany's and we needed to at least control our own currency.
3. I don't trust any politicians from our own country to do a good job protecting our interests in the UK, in particular for normal working class people. They are all in danger of going native.
4. The centralisation of power is bad. It should be decentralised.
5. Yes the EU has a free trade area. But it's protectionalist. We shouldn't have to be in the EU to do free trade with them.
6. Everyone has been trying to reform the EU to make it more accountable etc. They haven't been able to do it - EVER. Good luck with that.

The bonus. 1300 watt vacuum cleaners. Bring em back!

:D

presumably it would take the 80+ mps to vote against that make up the tory majority in the commons
its not yet impossible it will get to that (though no one in the press seems to think it will get there)

Labour is going to vote for it so it would take pretty much all the tories (300 or so) to have to vote against for the bill to fail (if I've done my rough mental arithmetic right).

As I said, we do actually need your point of view here, as a representative of the real Brexit constituency. I'd like (I guess) to see a Lexit response to your posts, but that won't be coming from me.

If it's a working class area, then one of the best quips I heard was from fella up in the North East on the night of the referendum at a count being interviewed by some reporter:

"The EU is good for GDP? Yeah your GDP, not our GDP."
 
Looks like it's going to be quite the day in Westminster with this vote going to shit and Boris' evidence at 2pm.

The “Brexit big beasts” lol, just sounds like a lost pack of lumbering mammals from some half forgotten era, who still mistakenly think they’re important.

And they're often whiney creatures - so it's a bit like when I go for my walk in the park and some tiny dog is somehow recognised by a big one as the same species and somehow seems to get away with asserting dominance...

The ERG say they will vote against the Windsor Framework.
Shame the ‘make Brexit work’ Labour wankers will vote in favour.
Leave as voted for can never be made to work unless perhaps there is a hard controlled land border on the island of Ireland.
But that fucks up the Good Friday Agreement.

I'm a leave voter. I'm on here. I'm not a Lexiter.

I don't hate remain voters but I believe there is a special place in hell for certain remain MPs who did their best to undermine every bit of leverage the UK government had with the EU from 2016 until the time we actually left in 2020.

i think you'll find that brexiteer mps were the ones who really did their best to undermine every bit of leverage the uk government had with the eu from 2016 to 2020, with the exception of david cameron, whose flawed trip to brussels and chamberlainian return proclaiming victory played such a role in the clusterfuck of the past seven years
