I'd say that's a convincing argument.

I personally know countless thousands of people who didn't vote to leave because they thought it could never happen.

Anyway, we are where we are and I'm loving it. I have 2 sons and after decades of experience int he club, I believe the future for them is much brighter outside the EU than in. My own needs come second to theirs.

I've no doubt we are going to be paying a price for leaving it was a choice I made when I ticked yes to leave.

However I believe the biggest price to pay would have been staying in the EU. Every year they came back to the UK demanding more money. Even after been exempt from future payments to Greece we still ended up putting in.

If I have to get mugged then let it be on my terms not from a union I know nothing about.

Like I already said we might have to pay a price so much things might not change in my generation I'm voting for future generations. We lost the Great in Britain a long time ago viewed by Europeans as a joke and easy pickings.

Now we have started punching back and the bully's don't like it.

I certainly don't have a problem sleeping at night.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 HAS BEEN TRIGGERED !

I voted to stay but as I didn't win I'm fully behind leave now. No point in getting worked up about staying now.

l voted to stay but we are going out now and that is it but l won't hesitate in giving a rational opinion on certain aspects of Brexit and of course it would be nice if some forum members would stop resorting to calling us remoaners or resorting to other personal insults either but alas that might be too much to ask one suspects.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 HAS BEEN TRIGGERED !

There has been a fair bit of name calling on both sides not exclusive to one side or the other but we are going out and just the two year waffle stage to go.

We now need to unite to get the best possible outcome. There's nothing to be gained by undermining our own interests.

Personally when both sides resort to childish and personal insults it does not say much about them IMO as supposed grown adults are supposed to debate things rationally but sadly there are some who still seem to resort to it.
