QUOTE (James_Trinder @ Feb 1 2019, 01:20 PM) I am a remainer and if I end up losing my job due to this Brexit shambles then I promise you that I will be off to Germany. Good. A man with principals. Where in Germany? Do you speak fluent German? Would be helpful.

Give it 20 years and all europe will be speaking german so patience has it's own reward. Even the remoaners will have their day but not at the expense of the democratic process.

He said five minutes talking to the average bloke on the street would convince you democracy is a bad idea.

QUOTE (Turin Machine @ Feb 1 2019, 12:54 PM) THIS, is a good article, The Guardian: So, poorer Brexiters voted to be worse off? There’s nothing wrong in that. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2...g-class-leaversOfcourse the problem with the article is that the premise is wrong. Leave told us we’d be better off and we’d get a fantastic deal from the EU so people did NOT vote to be worse off.

Say you, but then you also think this is a good idea, QUOTE (newres @ Jan 25 2019, 06:47 AM) Isn’t it obvious? She’s an uppity negro.

Sorry to divert the topic but seemed a good time to ask the question. Left wing liberal's ideas on such things interest me.

I have an "A" in A-Level German so I am pretty good by English standards and if I lived there for a while then I would imagine that I would become fluent in the end. If possible I would like to settle in Hessen since it is fairly similar to West Berkshire in terms of landscape and type of people and it is also one of the few places in Germany where cider is readily available.

Good for you, if you've mastered the verb structure the rest is comparatively easy. If their cider is as good as their beer (and better than french cider) you should be on a winner. Good luck!

I took you off block, but if you’re going to be a tw@t again I’ll put you back on. I’ve no interest in engaging with a te@t online or real life. Up to you. I’m not bothered either way.

QUOTE (Biker1 @ Feb 3 2019, 10:21 AM) No, that's fine. Interesting thanks. No "And". I’m actually not that left wing. I guess I’m pretty unhappy with our foreign policy and find myself not out of line with Corbyn on many things. Notably the Middle East, but economic policy wise I’m ethically capitalist I guess. On the whole I’m in favour of private ownership of the utilities for example. I don’t like the idea of a Corbyn led government but I’d prefer that to Brexit.

I don’t like the idea of a Corbyn led government but I’d prefer that to Brexit. Brexit cometh my friend... welcome it. You never know. You could quite possibly be wrong and it may be a good thing. Then again you may be right and I wont have any medicine, food or NHS on the 30th March. The proof of the pudding as they say...is in the eating..
