In fact it is so foolish you should sit down and have cup of tea and a biscuit and then ponder why no bright people think Brexit is a good idea. No really. Think about it. There is a small majority of mainly losers, failures, hapless folks and you think WE should take your expert advice? I think not ? Some weeks ago on another thread, you were deeply critical of what you saw as this countries (Thailand's) failings, and very publicly bemoaning the fact that, because of what you saw as (I paraphrase)," not one of my better life choices," you were trapped here. Now then, would that make you a"loser", "a failure", "one of the hapless folk" or just not very "bright"? It's a personal question I know, but you have consistently introduced a very personal element to these discussions on Brexit by coining and using a succession of personally abusive terms for any that do not agree with your views...

Grouse Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I married a Thai woman 24 years younger than me. I was travelling to Bangkok frequently at the time - electronics. So you see, everyone can make errors of judgement! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would even prefer to have some of the things the Brextiers want but most of us realised we probably ant going to get those things the leave campaign was just winging it or there was no plan in place they are gambling with our future and the odds are stacked against us and life outside of the EU will be even worst ,Especially for future generations I hope I am wrong I really do.If I am wrong my life and my country improves, if you lot are wrong and you probably will be you have to explain to future generations maybe your kids or grandchildren why you did it. And let's face it a good percentage of you not all of you but a lot of you.Only voted to leave to get rid of those pesky foreigners who by the way they probably ant going anywhere.

Yet another reference to those who voted for Brexit as "morons" would once again confirm what an arrogant "University Graduate" you really are. It may surprise you to learn that not all graduates are particularly intelligent people, even though, as one yourself, you clearly believe they are. Some of the dimmest, most naive and totally lacking in common sense people I've met in my life have been those who went to universities. While the rest of us have been living and working in the real world and gaining the necessary experience to do so these 'uni' merchants have been whiling away their formative years reading, studying, smoking dope and having left wing politics and Marxist dogma rammed down their throats often by teachers and lecturers who are equally as naive as those they have been charged with educating. These so called educators are perpetuating a circle that continues for generations. What's worrying is that many of these clowns get degrees that help them get into law and politics and into a position from where they can try to force their cracked pot ideas on to the rest of us. And get vastly overpaid and cosseted while they're doing it. It's of little surprise that when a refreshing and charismatic character like Nigel Farage appears on the scene people listen to what he has to say. He never went to university and worked in the real world at a real job before he got into politics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I concede that there are various types of intelligence, but in a knowledge based economy you do need well educated people. BTW, I did not say that Brexiters are morons. BUT, a clear majority of morons voted for Brexit. You can hear and see them on Any Questions or Question time or whatever they have on the other side. You're quite wrong there. A clear majority of morons voted to remain in the EU. Explain what's moronic about wanting to decide how your own country should be run and who should be allowed to come and live in it. Also explain to us morons what's so great about a bunch of Europeans that none of us ever voted for trying to run our country, imposing unwanted laws upon us and who should be allowed to come and live among us. If it was so great we should be clamouring for it, instead of worrying about what economic measures these dictators are going to try and scare us with in order to get us to basically remain in their EU.

Sent from my SM-G7102 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Sorry I missed this earlier. I suspect the answer to your questions shares an explanation with the reasons why Nissan/Renault were offered private meetings with PM Theresa May and given assurances by PM Theresa May regarding her government's actions on Brexit that the electorate where denied information on. Private businesses and the representatives of businesses have always met with politicians, civil servants and administrators. As PM Theresa May demonstrated over her meetings with Nissan/Renault, the subject and outcome of these meetings may be kept a secret. In short Teddy old chap. There is nothing unusual about the meetings, they are common place and the background to the discussions/outcome is almost certainly unknowable.

Grouse Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Moronic comes from the Greek word for foolish; It's neuter but don't let that bother you ? I favour clubbing together and sharing some but not all sovereignty for mutual benefits. Free movement of labour has been great for my family and me (Germany and Denmark easy. It was much more difficult going to work in the USA). However, the U.K. failed to use controls available to us. The inrush from Romania and Bulgaria were due to us removing all controls instantly. In my opinion, it is foolish (moronic) to throw away so many benefits in the hope of gaining some as yet unquantified, unspecified, intangible future benefit.

Sent from my SM-G7102 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Sorry, I was pondering, not pandering, pondering. It seems to me that in this twenty first century, information is power. Just look at the lengths stock traders go to in order to get information quicker than a competitor! So to get access to people of power must be advantageous in order to gain information. Nothing beats a face to face one on one meeting. This why people of power meet at Jamborees such as Davos and Bilderberg! Recommended; get an invite! Why the reference to Jewish bankers? I think information is important for all? Now, access may be an issue but I expect it is perceived as a two way street. OK?

Sent from my SM-G7102 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Well, the leading Brexiteers are part of a shadowy network of people who stole facebook data and misused it to sway the opinions of malleable, disaffected people to end up with a result that has clear financial benefits for them. Fraudulent, corrupt, self serving - those adjectives are perfect for describing the people to whom we have unwittingly handed control of our country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G7102 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app It's odd isn't it, how the EU that we are told is 'in the back pocket' of bankers, hedge fund managers, big business, neo-liberal globalists etc is the same EU that enforces laws and regulations severely restricting the excesses of bankers, hedge fund managers, big business, neo-liberal globalists etc. It's also very odd that the leaders of the Brexit campaign are promising a post Brexit bonanza brought about by the removal of EU laws and regulations that severely restrict the excesses of bankers, hedge fund managers, big business neo-liberal globalists etc. Teddy old chap, you've been had. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
