To discount this as an MP’s numbers game would be very foolish. Parliament and the establishment ignored this threat and feeling and what did we get? Brexit.

To ignore this shows you are as out if touch in your ivory tower as most of Westminster.

It’s Hilarious.

Westminster and the Establishment facilitated this fiasco by ignoring large swathes of the electorate that had valid concerns, concerns that were preyed upon by UKIP and the far right.

And now after the result how do they intend to adress those concerns? By ignoring the electorate. Stupid is as stupid does.

Yeah I must really come across as insecure. Jesus , you class that as an attack!? Some really sensitive souls on this forum.

It is a widely used phrase that implies the person it is directed at is out of touch, which is what your post previous certainly evidenced. It’s not an attack, get over yourself. Also it was not “ad hominem” I did not avoid the topic of the discussion or try to evade a reply to you. If you’re going to use clever words make sure you know what they mean.
