I think you'll find we contributed considerably to their economy. But if someone wants to sh*t on me by giving me millions of pounds feel free.

What a funny old world it has turned into.

We have a British guy (Jack) thinking that it's ok for a foreign country to disrupt a smaller country by using intimidation, for no other reason than he cannot accept the vote of the referendum.

Is there really no depths to which some Remainers will not stoop?
How about they open fire on Gibraltar?
Will that be acceptable because we voted to leave the EU?
What would they have to do to be condemned ?

The quicker that we are outside of this circus, the better.

That Brexiters think the world owes a living.

I have news, it's the twenty first century.
We just tried 'gun boat diplomacy' and it's lost us a trade deal with China.
We just tried telling the Japanese to hurry up with a trade and they said no.
Wake up. Brexit is a disaster. But of course it will be the Remainers fault, or the EU, or the Spanish, anyone except those who are actually responsible for this debacle.

You just keep on thinking you have right on your side Jack, when most of your posts only point to the monetary benefits that you as a fortunate citizen of the UK can enjoy from the EU.

So what can I expect from being a fortunate citizen of the UK?
Oh yes, I should know because you have explained sooooooooo many times.
But everything leavers promised has turned to dust.

I don't really like the personal bias of your post, smacks of playing the man not the ball, how very Brexiter of you. I notice you do that a lot when Brexit is exposed for what it is.
But I can do it too. John, you are suffering from British exceptionalism. You think the world will just do what we (you) want.
Your failed education of the British as the master race is totally out of date.
Brexit was only ever about economics and xenophobia.
As you (have previously) claimed you don't care about the economics - "I'm all right Jack", I can only assume the worst of you. Something I have tried to avoid.

That does not support your statement. Clearly you have not read your own link or any of those I found for you so no doubt you will continue making sweeping statements which are totally untrue. Reasons have been explained to you on several occasions by members of this forum but you ask the same questions over and over again.
Economics and xenophobia? Try telling that to the fishing communities, but then I'm alright Jack.

Jack, I have read the link and it clearly shows that economics was at the top of the remain list, but nowhere in the leavers list, and I am deeply disappointed that you seem to consider that, ---
"" The most frequently selected reason among Leave voters––ticked by 45%––was, ‘to strike a better balance between Britain's right to act independently, and the appropriate level of co-operation with other countries’. The second most frequently selected reason among Leave voters––ticked by 26%––was, ‘to help us deal better with the issue of immigration’""
are signs that leave voters were xenophobic, you do appear to have a particularly warped view of life, or maybe its just a warped view of leavers.
