If John Major and Gordon Brown are both speaking up against it, I think people should listen.
Wow - you actually wrote that down?
Not listening to utter morons like Major and Brown - two of the biggest idiots to ever lead our country - is far more sensible.
Maybe only Tony Blair and Theresa May reached levels of stupidity beyond those two buffoons.
The country is sick to the stomach of remainer BS and will back Boris in this latest, last ditch, attempt by traitors like John Major and Gordon Brown to support the EU over our own country.
You remainers should just sit down and be quiet. You've already lost the debate many times over.
I'll never understand why Brexiteers demand Remainers "sit down and be quiet". Did the Leavers sit down and be quiet when they lost the referendum in 1975? Do the opposition stop opposing the Government when they lose an election? Does democracy demand the winning side get to do what they want, with no criticism or opposing view presented?
Ultimately the referendum was won by a slim margin and a huge amount has happened since, much of it a farce. Brexiteers got their wish, we are leaving the European Union, yet many of them still act as if they're the victims despite this whole thing being a mess of their own doing. Countless lies were told, promises broken, and many people were duped into thinking that their lives were made worse by the big bad EU and not numerous Conservative governments neglecting and abusing them.
Even with this current situation, it's somehow the EU's fault. The Government negotiated a deal, they signed that deal and passed it through Parliament, and now months later are threatening to renege on that deal because they've now decided they don't like it. Can you imagining how Brexiteers would be frothing at the mouth about if the EU had pulled the same stunt? It's an absolute joke.
Brexiteers have gotten their way and the UK is becoming the diminished world power Remainers claimed they would be prior to the referendum. The Government are lucky that Trump is in power across the pond because if he wasn't, the UK would be the country the rest of the world would be laughing at instead.
Oh, and you want to know what extremist comments are, jayram? Calling those who disagree with your opinion on this matter as "traitors", one of which was a former Conservative PM for god's sake.
The only traitors are those who knew full well what damage this decision would do to the United Kingdom and did so anyway for political and/ or financial gain. You know that Johnson was pro-EU his entire life until it became politically advantageous for him to turn, don't you? The man will say and do anything to advance his career. He's delivered Brexit and will likely be off before he can be held accountable for his action, and your lot will be celebrating a "victory" as the UK continues its decline as the rest of the western world looks on with a mixture of confusion and pity.
Oops, looks like I called someone a traitor too. I guess we'll be extremists together.
Kills me to say it, but the UK has created a mess totally of its own doing. My only hope now is that Scotland is able to jump ship and gain its independence just as England sinks beneath the waves.
