Do you want a separate Brexit forum?

[steeplejack]

Yes.

After the forum is created, we’ll hold all the cards!

 

[magneze]

No. Sorry, it's a terrible idea.

Personally I feel that threads like this need to die quickly in 2021. If everything continues to be seen through the prism of Brexit then I suspect discussions will never really move on.

I posted that in one of the Brexit threads on Dec 31st and stick by it.

A new forum is compounding the issue.

I recall the brexit forum, I'd argued against it and was later proved right. See also: people's vote/2nd reff.

How were you proved right? Brexit has dragged on for a lot longer than anyone expected and isn't going away any time soon - and now we have about 80 threads with Brexit in the title scattered all over the place and two massively overstuffed, near identical threads!

for example

Proposal for new law to tackle dangerous cyclists.

Cycling law review after death cases "The government is launching a review into whether a new law is needed to tackle dangerous cycling. It will consider whether an equivalent offence to causing death by dangerous driving is needed for cyclists. It comes after Charlie Alliston, who killed Kim...

and i'm sure a lot of other posters have said similar things.

WTF? That is one weird post. Where, how and who have I 'gaslighted' (gaslit?)?

I really have no clue how you've arrived at this bizarre point (unless you don't know what gaslighting actually is).

Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse that's seen in abusive relationships. It's the act of manipulating a person by forcing them to question their thoughts, memories, and the events occurring around them. A victim of gaslighting can be pushed so far that they question their own sanity

it's there in your definition, making people question their memories. just after the bold bit.

 

[ska invita]

Some old thread that's that could be moved there


It's starting... "Deregulation, cutting red tape"

Brexit & Scotland

How has Brexit actually affected you so far?

Brexit - the International Effects


Exit impact on Northern Ireland

Creating "Lexit": What is to be done?

Brexit - the impact of "last one in" free movement

Look on the bright side... good things about Brexit

i can't speak for everyone else, so let's just start with me.

Wow, I think I'll just leave this. It's waaay out there and utterly ridiculous.

perhaps it is. but it's no more ridiculous than other claims of gaslighting that have been made today.

 

[gosub]

Have nice time. Don't forget the odd postcard

 

[The39thStep]

A couple of suggestions :

Keep the EU watch thread separate

Keep the travelling musicians and Brexit separate and don’t allow anyone to post anything about travelling musicians on the main Brexit thread.

Agreed EU and Brexit are 2 separate things

 

[weltweit]

Too late I think.

 

[Yossarian]

Maybe a "Europe" forum?

Europe a nation was Moseley’s slogan

 

[Yossarian]

Doesn't sound like a very catchy one.

It wasn't tbh lost his deposit

 

[Funky_monks]

Will there be a final countdown to it's opening?

 

[cupid_stunt]

The poll is closed, and there's a clear majority for a separate Brexit forum.

 

[Saul Goodman]

I bet it won't be the Brexit forum I voted for!

 

[Elpenor]

Achieved a higher % than the remain vote ever did

 

[Puddy_Tat]

time to start a thread for a peoples vote...

 

[Orang Utan]

i couldn’t give a fuck either way but might it attract some flagshaggers here?

 

[Saul Goodman]

Will be allowed to moan about it for the next 5 or 6 years?

 

[brogdale]

Are we waiting for some sort of supermajority, or will the peoples' will prevail with a simple plurality?

[Wilf]

Keep the travelling musicians and Brexit separate and don’t allow anyone to post anything about travelling musicians on the main Brexit thread.

My own preference would be to call them Carnet Minstrels.

As you were.

 

[not-bono-ever]

All brexit related shite separate sub forum. I have about 6 threads ignored already, lump them together and I can block the whole thing
