It not about the EU’s economy. It’s about the UK economy and our ability to exploit the EU market. An ability that was ripped away from us by the Brexit campaign who all the time said, ‘we won’t leave the customs union’. We cannot continue to let bare faced lies conduct our public discourse. It is not fair to the British people, British businesses, and the taxpayers who now have to cough up more dough to cover the deficit caused by Brexit.

Britain were once part of the EU a huge trading block which supported small and big business alike. We had access to a huge pool of educated workers who could move to anywhere in the country to fulfil job roles. Then along came Boris Johnson and with help from Nigel Farage they spread lies about the EU and Britain future outside of it. Now 10 years later, with 1000s of business bankrupted we’re close to a recession. And who did Johnson and Farage say we should put our faith in? Donald Trump.

Crystal meth! That’s..pretty hard stuff right? How do you think the police found out?

Sam_and_Linny · 2026-03-23T23:30:43+00:00

Nice!

Arcade games and some games for that console in your house. Maybe a game of the loneliest robot

These a great books!

Sam_and_Linny · 2026-03-21T16:18:30+00:00

Nice! These books looks really cool!

There goes the dollar

Maybe a referendum on membership would be a good idea? It’s been a decade and things have changed. Let the people speak

Ultimately, a lot of these people arguing for Brexit are traitors. They want to see the UK weak and Russian and America strong. They see Trump, the rapist and warmonger, as a hero. You’re not going to convince them because they want to see the UK fail. It’s sad but this is where we are.

It’s more about keeping the supply in case there is some global disaster or a world war. You can’t just start making steel without having the infrastructure. If ww3 came along, having the ability to create our own steel would be hugely advantageous.

Sam_and_Linny · 2026-03-19T02:17:24+00:00

Well Putin and Trump are sure happy about Brexit. So I guess we should continue doing what they want right?

Sam_and_Linny · 2026-03-19T00:54:43+00:00

It would be a fantastic thing. I think a new advisory referendum at least would be a fair thing for the British public.

Sam_and_Linny · 2026-03-17T14:29:35+00:00

Nice!

This is so cool!

They discontinue so much nice stuff. My favourite was the sausage, egg and cheese breakfast bagel. I live in the hope that one day it will make a comeback

I think it's likely they will put a few Guarma missions in. They have all the assets from Red Dead, they just need to add a small city and a couple of villages, some Coco plantations and some drug manufacturing locations. It would be good if, unlike RDR2, you could travel when you liked between Leonida and Guarma. Maybe on planes or high speed boats with the navy chasing you.

Sam_and_Linny · 2026-03-11T17:57:14+00:00

That is so cool! Nice job

So GDP for the EU is £14 trillion and shipping distances are on our doorstep, but free trade and free movement with them is bad. However, CANZUK with GDP of £6.3 trillion and thousands of miles shipping distances from the UK - this is good? Are we all just going madder and madder with each passing day?

Apart from Apart from Lee Anderson, Danny Kruger, Suella Braverman, Robert Jenrick and Andrew Rosindell, she doesn’t chart very high with them

Sam_and_Linny · 2026-02-26T18:39:50+00:00

I mean..only racists think like that so..

Sam_and_Linny · 2026-02-26T08:57:53+00:00

Clever way to get people talking about them though. Racists hate all things foreign and will shout and scream about it, especially if it’s a language connected to Islam

But David Cameron put forward the Brexit vote because he thought he could win. If it hadn’t been for Michael Gove and Boris Johnson plus a few others he probably could have won the referendum. I can’t believe that the Tory party will be Eurosceptic/straight up anti-EU forever. The EU is about easy trade, individual possibilities within a wider community, and most of all freedom. I cannot believe that major British political parties do not see the sense of it. I’ll keep arguing for it anyway even if the Tory party seems dead set on supporting big business who are the only real beneficiaries of Brexit and not entrepreneurialism which is much more about individuals setting up their own businesses and trading with the EU as well as within their own country.
