Exhibit A

"Leave lobby unwilling or unable to make any concessions to the views and fears of the Remain camp as it drives the country towards the cliff edge."


- so , could you not be dividing the county by refusing to accept the result of a vote which the Remain Lobby (and HofC) agreed to as they were sure they'd win??

I'm off to look for a barrel with some fish in it....

The aim of remainers - really? What has caused the current divide? - the referendum; who wanted the referendum? - those who wanted to Leave - with cheerleader Mr Nigel Farage.

We have a divided country because we have had a referendum that has split opinion in the country in half; and a Leave lobby unwilling or unable to make any concessions to the views and fears of the Remain camp as it drives the country towards the cliff edge.

I would suggest then, being conned into joining in the first place is when the 'divides' started...

And, we fell off the cliff edge a long time...

Why on earth should I just meekly accept something that I fear is going to be bad for the country; bad for my children; and bad for social cohesion.

You really only do see things from the side of the very small majority who voted to Leave - but you are not alone.

...one last time...... you muted that Leaving is "dividing the country" but don't seem willing or able to accept the possibility that "folk still fighting the Referendum" is doing the dividing... predominately, equally or even slightly....

...and a narrow majority, is indeed , A MAJORITY

Hence, me pointing out a possible definition of "divide" being as I did earlier...

But, you continually reinforcing my point is appreciated....

Just playing Devil's Advocate, is Remaining bad for social cohesion?

And as an aside, The Office for National Statistics have released a report this week that shows the wellbeing of the UK to be the best its been for many years. Hardly effecting social cohesion is it?

We haven't left yet - the promises of the Leave campaign have not yet failed to materialise. Yet when fail to materialise is what they do then there are going to some very grumpy people about - and when people get grumpy they look for someone to blame.

Well, I hadn’t realised we hadn’t left yet...:rolleyes:

And the dire happenings predicted by Remain, that would happen almost overnight, haven’t happened yet...
 
Oh Nigel - you really do enjoy stoking the seething anger and discontent of the moaning miseries calling into your LBC radio prog. Oh they are all soooo unhappy and angry that the 'elite'are going to diddle them out of the brave new world that Brexit promised. So many are convinced. It's an establishment plot - down with the traitors - burn them at the stake for 'denying the will of the people'.

And of course you just deliberately do not correct all misconceptions and falsehoods your callers spout about what's going on.

No - just as in the lead up to the vote you keep your mouth shut so that their misconceptions and misunderstandings grow - just as their anger grows. Maybe one day you will tell some of your callers a few truths - correct their errors. But I shall not hold my breath waiting for that day.

The point is your posts become more and more childish, in fact they boarder on Trumpish. Have you sat back and actually read what you write. Its sòooo likeeee a tweet from a 14 year old like.

Writing insulting comments about the likes of Farage, Trump, Johnson etc does you no favours and dealt does show a complete lack of immaturity IMO obviously.

We all know how idiotic they all are and don't require a daily rant to confirm it.

Why don’t you ignore him if what he posts annoy or offend you that much ?

For as much as Hogan doesn’t stop going on about Trump or Art 50 you appear to always be the first to reply to him following him around like a puppy waiting for him to post next so you can have a go at him

Maybe stop replying to him and half the issue on the political threads would go away

So why should the rest of the forum membership be denied access to a particular thread because of monopolisation by one or a few posters of a particular persuasion? Maybe if SILH stopped dominating the threads or moderated his tone then equally the issue would go away?

I don’t believe I said anyone should be denied access to any thread.

It’s quite clear that whilst SILH has been over the top a number of times on this and the other political threads it’s also clear there are certain others on the other side goading and stirring the pot as well. The tone has been as bad on both sides of the fence from a number of people

If people don’t like what SILH posts then just ignore him - it’s not hard and people can still post in the thread their own opinion about the subject without having to respond to SILH.
