Make no mistake I have the balls but I prefer to stick to the forum rules.

Then don't try and play the clever man when you have no intention of following it up.

You can’t expect Old Boy to present a reasoned argument. He has a set of beliefs and must be right at all costs.

It’s easily verifiable listening to the broad range of leave arguments before and after the referendum, of varying quality, some ranged from ending freedom of movement and maintaining a close relationship with the EU to all out WTO exit and wait for the EU to come back on their knees with a better deal.

One cannot deny that to be true any more than deny the earth to be round.

That old magic money tree has suddenly appeared again it seems.

£1.6bn over seven years. You could probably get more out of a rounding error on Chris Grayling’s calculator.

You're right it is a tiresome and pathetic argument, so stop repeating 17+ million people all voted for the same thing (you haven't here but I'm sure you did before), different people had different opinions of what leave or remain actually meant.
The headline is OTT but the diagram does show why what people were expecting when they voted leave is not as black & white as some would have it.

Another one of Margaret Thatcher's legacies dead and buried; the reputation of the Conservatives for fiscal responsibility.

Mmm, contrast that to over £5billion of EU funding every year.

What an absolute load of rubbish - there is no way on Earth of accurately measuring how and why 17.4 Million people voted to leave. I do not care what that image says, it's utter bollocks.

It is irrelevant anyway - we had a referendum, where the largest Democratic mandate in history took place regardless how many times you erroneously keep bringing up pointless figures, trying to include people ineligible to vote or could not be arsed to, it utterly pointless because it does not matter after the result has been made, the country voted to leave, there will not be another referendum, no matter how many times the democracy abusers spit their dummy out.

'they' who?

all I see is an image on a forum, no hint of where it's from, no link back to its origin (one wonders why that is), it could be anything . . or nothing

1.37/10 must try harder
