Brexit - or Article 50: the Phoenix!

Has anyone found their view on the whole brexit subject has affected their lives /relationships?

I ask as I work in the city for a financial firm which is being impacted by brexit. Of the 100+ employees I know of only 3 people (myself included) that voted leave, everyone else is strongly remain and very vocal about it.... Some in the office have taken time to talk to me about my view and we have had good exchanges on the pros and cons of the scenarios, others however actively won't talk to me about it and are genuinely dumbfounded that I still would vote leave again if another referendum took place.

I too know that I have lost "friends" on Facebook because I voted leave.

Anyone else have similar experiences ?

Slightly interesting indoors at times as we view things differently 😁 Other than that no great problems, just the occasional issues on here, usually with people who like to talk down to others and are then surprised when they receive the same treatment. Genuine friends will understand and respect your views, as you will theirs.
 
So reading what’s happened today it seems

They won’t vote through Mays deal

She will only leave with a No Deal if the majority want a No Deal and it seems it’s clear there isn’t a majority for a No Deal

So where the hell does that leave the country ?

Maybe they need to think of the public for once and not themselves

I don’t want a No Deal but I don’t want this to keep going on

I don’t want another vote , don’t want a General Election.

So what the hell are we left with

What a mess - well done the MP’s -

What a convenient mess

We have decided to revoke article 50.. each party can blame each other for voting down options

Brexit swept under the rug

Liddington comes in as temporary PM. SR regrets not putting a tenner on it. He goes for a softer Brexit and gets labour support. Gets his vote passed. ERG go mad and a few join UKIP. Farage arranges another march. General election called, only 585 people vote as everyone is so disenfranchised with politics. The Green Party form the new government. Everyone lives happily every after. Apart from the fact we are living in a post apocalyptic Brexit wasteland.

Exactly where the EU was hoping UK would be!

How do you know I never put a tenner on it?
 
Fundermental under investment in infrastructure and services by central government. If we weren’t in the Eu they wouldn’t suddenly find extra for the nhs which they have said already so it’s mismanagement of public funds.

But hey let’s cut all ties why not? Survival of the fittest and richest .. why not. Be great .
So what you're suggesting is the EU does nothing for us. Best we cut the ties an stop giving them all this money and focus then. Hey Ho, everyone's a winner.

The Eu has provided Brit’s with so many job opportunities and the ability to live and work throughout

You could take all the negative of the Eu add it all up times by 100 and it still wouldn’t come close to how much good as come from it.

Everything you post is so wrong I find it unbelievable how you come up with so much balderdash. There is no point with trying to ask you or explain where you're wrong as you just gush out more of it. Try engaging brain before putting mouth in gear. 👌

But at what cost to migration, the NHS, laws, democracy etc etc etc. And that is what the last 395 pages are all about, and the remainers that have not been affected by any of this fail to understand what the leavers have been affected by. 👍
But for me now it is more than just remain v leave. It is about upholding democracy. Something the remainers do not understand.
