Brexit: Think Again

[bainbrig]

Michael Morpurgo argues it's time to think again over Brexit.

"It is surely time to accept that we have made a mistake", he writes, "that whichever way we voted, things are not turning out the way we expected".

"Or are we too proud?" he asks.

It's only ten minutes long, and will give you cause/pause for thought.

Theland shows his true colours. Really done your cause a favour there, my friend.

NJ. See my reply to Dave on the other thread.

Incidentally, I’m not the one who reduced a sensible debate to lightbulbs. I think you’ll find you yourself did that some time ago. When pressed again, your fellow leave voters came up with the same conclusion.

Please treat others as you would like to be treated and respect other people’s opinions. Discussions can get passionate but users should moderate their language and refrain from personal attacks and profanity. We encourage lively debate but name calling, harassment or abuse will not be tolerated.

Spare me, Ed.

The Zany takes some beating as a bottom-feeding snide.

"Europe or out of Europe has not affected me in any way over the years..."

I take it you haven't paid any electricity bills, then.

this thread has grown exponentially since I last looked. dodgy connection, cannot wade, apologies if this has already been said.

Sir Michael may well be expressively articulate, and have valid points. but it never ceases to amaze that celebrities and public figures who have strident opinions and know "the way", never put their passion into practice and stand for election?

No, nor pontificators on Answerbank, eh Mushroom?

Er... Donald something-or-other, the name escapes me momentarily.
