Just been to the shops and apparently straight bananas are out of stock at the moment

 

We're you around when rationing was in place?

I grow bananas..... never seen a straight one yet..... must be difficult to cultivate as they grow upwards and inwards... although I have seen a square pineapple.

Mervyn king, ex governor of the bank of England, says there would NOT be an economic impact of brexit in the long term.

 

oh so now we are going to listen to the experts

Lots more violence from the Brexiteers

 

It could be the 2 Remain parties fighting in the House shortly,with each other.

What a ridiculous statement.

 

What's ridiculous about posting a counter argument to experts opinions..... it's been stated that all the experts agree about the effects of brexit yet here is one that doesnt.... if the present governor of the bank of England is considered an expert and his opinion should be heeded then surely a previous governor of the bank of England is considered an expert and his opinion should be heeded.

oh so now we are going to listen to the experts

 

I always listen to them.... it doesn't mean I always believe them or follow their leanings.... if you don't listen and consider how can you mount an argument for or against anything?

Same parties different faces mate.

You were putting words in my mouth.

 

I never said I wanted a civil war. I never said what I meant by "war". I never said I wanted to harm anyone (I actually said the direct opposite).

 

I don't believe I've done that.

 

In fact, I was quoting someone who had called for extreme state violence to be used against people who voted to leave should we leave with no deal. Pretty horrendous opinion if that is honestly held.

 

There will be riots if we don't leave. That's not me making a thread, condoning or supporting it. It's an observation and a prediction.

 

You meant a war where people sat down and discussed things civilly. Gotcha.

Chamberlain and Hitler .... 1938?..... look how that turned out.

So much for parliament making decisions...... mps are being whipped to follow party line..... free choice for what mps think best for the country a secondary consideration when there is blood in the water.

Kate Hoey Labour MP said she was disgusted that Labour were using that tactic with the indicative votes.A free vote should have been used for each proposal by all parties.

Kate Hoey should bugger off and join UKIP.

One less Labour MP is always a good thing.

I wouldn't wish Batten and Tommy Robinson on anyone.

 

The rise of right wing extremism is very dangerous.

Throughout Europe,time to Exit.

[TheSage]

I'm more worried about what's going on here.

 

We've got Corbyn taking Labour down the left wing path, hard line Brexiteers threatening to take over the Tory Party, a small rise in UKIP membership recently, a growth in anti-semitism and in islamaphobia, and now this whole Brexit business has created an awful lot of anger and mistrust.

 

Whatever happened to accepting another person's opinion, tolerance, respect and good manners?

 

We are leaving in an age of increasing polarisation and growing nationalism when all the lessons from the past will tell you that unity, togetherness and mutual respect is the best way forward.
