Just curious, but even the die-hard twats must now realise that Brexit is a bad idea at this point?

52% of us voted for £350 million a week for the NHS, to save payments to the EU, and the easiest deal in history.

The £350 never arrived, so NHS is short £74 billion. The cost of Brexit so far is now larger than our entire 47 year EU payments. The deal is dead. And just 34% still want Brexit.

Can we stop winning now?

Hmm, I watched some of the FB video, but didn't see the relation to randomly calling someone racist. So, I had to look up Tommy Robinson --someone I'd never heard of. Anyway, racist or not, I'm not sure the criticism is random.

"Tommy Robinson" ( = Stephen Yaxley-Lennon) is not only a person with a long, long track record of extreme-right wing and racist activity on many levels but also, to use an old-school term, a "common criminal".
"Robinson's criminal record also includes convictions for violence, financial and immigration frauds, drug possession, and public order offences.[13][14][15] He had previously served at least three separate custodial sentences: in 2005 for assault, in 2012 for using false travel documents, and in 2014 for mortgage fraud." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Robinson_(activist)

Although in his case, these other criminal activities and much of his political activism merge pretty seamlessly.

Posting a video by this person to support one's own case or point is, I would contend, not a good idea. I would guess this is not a person you would really wish to be associated with, Peacedog, neither personally nor in terms of reputation. But of course you decide. :)

So it looks like after 4.5 years of negotiations it's going to be an "austrialian style" no deal hard brexit, a complete failure from start to finish. Scotland is all set to break away and rejoin the EU, NI next then Wales might start thinking about it, we're already putting gun boats in the channel, so we'll probably be at war with France soon. We've ended up with a free trade area smaller than the United Kingdom. I don't think even Boris has any idea it would get this bad, or what's going to happen next. I bet he couldn't believe all the suckers (especially the great minds of RSF) who bought into it. All he wanted was to preserve his tax haven.

Anyway, while Britian is going down like the Titanic, I shall attempt to keep playing with the orchestra. See you on the other side. Or maybe not? We may not all fit in the lifeboats. Chin chin!
