Looking at some of the Nationalistic xenophobic rubbish on here we have a similar problem Just now, Lex Luthor said: Here we go, simplistic, sloppy, unfounded generalisations. Reminds me of Anna Soulbury I think Mister M’s comments were a lot more reasoned than your response,which really says .....nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, the plan for the Brexited UK by like-minded Brexit-pushing captains of industry is to become the european Singapore, right? And then ardent Leavers are scathing about Remainers for not getting behind Brexit! I thought he'd made it clear that it is to do with his focus on the new Dyson car which has been working with Singapore technologies for a while.

Enjoy: The condescending title and fist paragraph set the tone nicely. So, a massive, expensive, beurocratic monster, but it doesn't actually do anything? Presumably on that basis, there is little point in the beast, and it matters not whether we Remain or Leave. That should make things easier. Thanks Loob. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are just the bits the UK didn't support, hardly anything.... the central point of the piece. Edited January 22, 2019 by Magilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the opening sentence is "ALL THEM RULES INNIT" , the writer is obviously both patronising and pushing an agenda. His attitude implies a biased monologue, I wouldn't give him the time of day. I detest condescending people regardless of their opinion, so his team is wasted on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
