Using terms like won and lost marks you out as the one who needs to grow up. It's one thing being a sore "loser", being a sore "winner" is the pits.

Ok what do you call it when you come second, runners up ?? Someone has to lose and remain did yet some can't get over it

The irony of this post - up there with the most childish ever to appear on the cluster**** of a thread.

Functioning, thinking grown ups, who see the shambles our government is making, of what was a shambles of an idea to begin with, want what is best for our country, and so continue to argue their case.

Sitting quietly sulking and sucking it up without speaking up, would be the childish response.

Argue the case then and not in the sore loser mode you all seem to be stuck in. The childish side comes from you and your ilk. My grandson would have moved on from his temper tantrum after A few hours. For most of you it has now been 2yrs. Constant sniping and degrading remarks towards anybody who dared to vote the way you didn't like it.

Was just about to reply to this with something similar.

Saying 'you lost, is a strange way to frame the Brexit result; I won, you lost.

That's a bit generous describing most of the drivel on this thread as a 'debate'. For every one post attempting a reasoned argument, there are dozens which could be fairly categorised as I didn't get my way grizzling.

And dozens which could fairly be categorised as I did get my way, but as it all turns to shit like I was told it would, I'll put my fingers in my ears and pretend it's all fine grizzling :wink:

Nigel Farage has just announced that he and his family are life long Crystal Palace supporters.
Which just about brings this thread to a conclusion and that I was right all along.
Brexit voters are absolute tossers.

If you consider the ethos of CPFC2010 they are a match made in heaven

It's common knowledge that Farage is a Palace supporter, it was discussed somewhere on this forum months and months ago. Thanks for calling all Brexit voters tossers by the way, it's this exact attitude, name calling that gave people like me and others another reason to vote Leave.

Using terms like "thicko" and "spacktard" marks you out as inmature and someone not too nice.

It is voting to spite others that makes you a tosser, of all the reasons I have heard that people voted leave, to piss off sneering liberals has to be the most ridiculous.

I did not see it on here obviously.
And I would not say it was common knowledge.
And it was a bit tongue in cheek but yet again people like you get all precious and defensive.
But, please don't tell me that somewhere lurking in the back of your mind that you also think that Farage is a 24 carat tosser.
Leading up to the referendum, how the English public fell for the lies spread by Farage and Johnson and the behaviour of both is mind boggling.
And we take the mick out of the Irish and the Scots, at least they saw right through it.
Not to have seen through these two tossers makes people who believed them tossers as well.

The Irish voted against the Lisbon treaty but we're persuaded to change their minds. Some might say they were bullied into it.

Bloody Worthing!
I've been listening to The Today programme this morning. It's coming from Teesside and, not surprisingly given the date, Brexit is a main theme. At one point it turned into a kind of focus group featuring a bunch of workers in a factory. Now before any anti-BBC agendas kick-in I don't think that they were set-up in any way. And anyway my impressions will be music to the ears of Leavers.

- they sounded like decent ordinary folk; they could well be representative of a big slice of the Brexit vote in the north

- they deserve to be listened to

- they have no enthusiasm whatever for a 2nd referendum

- the overwhelming view is that 'we should just get on with it'; that Brexit might not work out but it was worth it

- one respondent (even) said that if he lost his job as a direct result of Brexit he would still think it was worth it (there's a good chance of this happening)

These are my impressions. It made for depressing listening for me. The 'just get on with it' phrase has replaced 'take back control' as a very powerful 'common sense' framing device. There's a passive stoicism tinged I think with resentment that anyone should want to stir things up or make life more complicated.

This made for hard listening for the likes of me. But then I thought about us lot on this thread. We are highly untypical; we are the odd ones. How many people contribute to NSC threads? Of those how many come on this thread? I don't know but my guess is a very low proportion. And of those who visit this thread, how many contribute? My guess would be that about 90% of the stuff on here comes from about the same 10 people; we probably have some sort of mental disorder.

It's a bit like being stuck in a lift with 10 people - 5 that you like and 5 you don't. And here we all are having the same arguments over and over again (or variations) while the rest of the world (and NSC) just........gets on with it. We might just have a lot more in common with each other than we have with the rest of the population.

Bloody hell: that is scary and rather depressing. The one thing we can't get on with is each other. But at least we care.
