I have noticed several instances recently where you are hugely distorting what I say. It helps if you read things in full. I see that you are a disciple of the "attack is the best form of defence" posting style. I may distort some of the more stupid things that you claim but surely that's better than distorting the truth as you frequently do

An actual answer rather than more of the same old self justification might take us forward. I would though be interested to know what you think the EU has planned for the next four years. Once that's known we can check it for truth and if untrue try to see where the fake story has come from, "Did people who voted leave, do it because they wanted to break up the UK" in not so many words is your last line.

Are you suffering from dementia? Go back to your own posts of a month or two ago and read the stupid claims you were making about the future development of the EU that you said were in the Lisbon Treaty. As several posters then pointed out these are all nonsense conspiracy theories bereft of fact. No but you are as you were asked to get back in your box and keep your head down. You might just do it when we seal the deal with the EU and leave and then you will have nothing to waffle about as you do now.
Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky. |

"I know you are, you said you are, but what am I?" Really?? Dear god. A good few people on this site - and News/Politics in particular - could really do with having a good look at themselves. Some of the carry-on is so utterly, pathetically childish sometimes. It's just a little website - it's really not something to get obsessive and bent out of shape about.

Just a question because your response made no sense at all to me as it seemed unrelated to that which I actually posted. Whether my comments are "stupid" or not is obviously a personal opinion. I think many comments here lack credibility but most of the time I try to use argument and reason to counteract them, rather than playground insult. Truth is always the truth. It cannot be distorted.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

Sorry to disappoint but this will require continuing analysis for a year or two yet, even if this "deal" passes. In many ways that would just be the end of the beginning. If it doesn't pass then there are many possibilities, starting today and into the next couple of weeks. It is obvious though that, as usual, you just ignore issues that you have been called out on, and revert to the only form of response that you know, even repeating exactly the same phrases. As there are many more important things happening today, both in the commons, in Japan and later at Selhurst I won't be bothering with any more of your nonsense.
