WOWZER.... what finally persuaded you to vote Remain?

We were all banking on you as a 'Leaver' or non voter.

Was actually a pm chat with SloveniaDave that had a big influence. People were tutting at me in the polling station because it took me so long to put my x in the remain box.

Very probably

I think the £350m figure subject to a loosening of the rebate (maybe subsidy reductions) in 2020.

Disagree. We see it all the time. Big lie splashed over front pages of papers for days, clarification that corrects the misinformation on page 11 in the corner in very small font.

They shouldn't have used the lie in the first place. That's the core of the issue.

You do it all the time!

You've done it with your how people voted by age graphic. The small print reveals otherwise.

Anyway, enough. They're playing The Beloved on the radio.

Really?

He just wants to appear to be on the winning side and somehow convince us that this is good for Labour.

If labour were dead and buried before they have now been scattered to the four corners of galaxy.
Not that the galaxy actually has corners.

My concern wouldn't be with the actual figure, which was wrong, but with the dropping of the policy itself. Its one thing to get the figure wrong, its another to then abandon the idea all together.

Aaah, my heart bleeds. They've speculated. What goes up can come down. What I'd also like to see is Chinese investors drop a bundle on their empty apartments by the Thames and Shoreditch.

People who don't own properties. I voted for them and the youngsters who didn't see the housing crisis in years to come. I don't expect them to acknowledge or thank for it because they missed the thought of serving drinks in Europe for a year.

But we need to actually stop free movement and renegotiate tariffs with the EU. BMW, Mercedes et al will help with 20% of cars coming to the UK.

Free movement for me, isn't just undermining the UK, but also the nations which are providing a bulk of the that workforce, that have been experiencing a 'skill and brain drain' to provide low skill labout in the UK.

The small print was on the same piece of information not weeks later.
You appear to be defending the lie. Please say otherwise. Do you not think it bad practice to lie in bold headlines and big letters around the environment ie on buses?

I predict that in a few months time you will be one of the very few still admitting to have voted out. We have just committed collective suicide. I am deeply ashamed of my fellow citizens this morning. I truly thought we were better than that. I knew that there were many selfish prats, and some who really believed we would be better off outside the EU, but I could not imagine it being a majority.

The most depressing, shameful day of my 72 years.

Change the record Grandad...... you posted that on another thread already!

Actually I think this could be good for Labour, if it can respond to the backlash it felt in a lot of traditional areas of support and engage with those issues.

I can't believe you're pretending not to know about this pre-election.

I have said all through this campaign that both sides are full of s***/liars. If anyone believed any bulls***, that's their issue. I'm defending no-one.

You have presented you graphic as how people voted by age, it's nothing of the sort. Don't be a hypocrite.

In fairness, our entries have been s**te I wouldn't have voted for them either.
