Almost everybody is pro-Europe. Are you for Remain or Leave for the UK? Just to be clear.

Could you put one of your teachers on so we can have a go at them if your nonsense is their fault? Chrz!

Totally agree with him - it's pretty obvious that we have got to that point now and with hindsight it's easy to see how we got there. But how do we stop it from happening again?

I would vote 'remain' purely for selfish financial reasons. (I made this clear one post before your question) Be fair to me, I wouldn't be the only one would I. I'm over the 'lived abroad' time limit to vote btw

ditto to you. Was a specific teacher responsible for you living in a bubble? You'd have probably judged the builder who built the extension on my house in the UK, as 'thick as shit', because of the way he spoke or could barely write. He was a brilliant problem solver and very skilled.

”I know you are but what am I?" Really?

I come from a council estate and left school with nothing beyond O levels. Given we live in an age where self education has never been easier "boo hoo my school was bad" just doesn't wash.

There's no shame in being under informed, if you know your limits then it's easy to fix.

What isn't great is rolling around in your own ignorance like a pig in shit while being chippy with anyone pointing it out. I mean I wouldn't pontificate to your builder about how to make a house, the changes in house making over the last 15 years and how houses have gone to hell in hand cart. Because I know fuck all about building a house.

That all said I do think I might do a better job of constructing a house than you've done of making a coherent argument.

Outside of abuse for anyone who may be right of Himmler I've had enormous trouble extracting any consistent thread of reasoning from your posts. A problem others have had here as well.

I don't live in a bubble, I live in the actual UK which is something you can't claim despite more than happy to wank on about how terrible it is. It isn't.

I would too, but not just because I'm paid in euros (it would be nice if we ended up 1:1 pound to euro!) but also because to leave the EU, to me, is pure madness. And of course the only people shouting about leaving are bigoted racist assholes.

Tommy Mair assassinated Jo Cox.

It is a political murder. He is now being held under terrorist conditions.

He associated with far-right and racist groups.
Many of those groups are involved and affiliated with the Leave.UK group campaigning to leave the EU. Nigel Farage is part of that group, and even warned that violence would happen.

He may have been mentally unstable to think he would achieve anything with it. The Crown Prosecution Service ruled he is fit to stand trial.

Do we live in a society where the level of political and social discourse has caused someone to become so afraid that we might leave the EU that he would go out and shout right-wing slogans while murdering a popular MP, thus gaining immeasurable support for the remain campaign?

Small price to pay, no?
