"People do seem a lot more miserable at the moment. I remember posters on here pre-election saying they were voting Labour because they thought they couldn't possibly worse than the Tories. It seems they were wrong. So many of those posters have disappeared from this forum, or more likely, changed their username." how were they wrong? Labour are tackling problems unlike the last lot. some of those problems they have been relatively successful and other not so much or too early. | |||

"Yes I for one was hoping for a better future but am getting more disappointed by the day. There's almost no difference between Tories and labour! Maybe it's time for a radical change?" Plenty of differences and positive steps so far | |||

"I don’t understand why people need to try and bring doom and despair. Do we have issues? Yes. Clearly we do. Do we have the basis of an economy and a governance structure that can be turned around. 100% we do. Is the future going to be easy? Unlikely. Are we “completely fucked”? No. Not by a long shot." ![]() | |||

"Early days" “Early days” lol. When do these “early days” end? Labour voters in 2029 when they get kicked out: “They had such great ideas, they just didn’t get the chance to implement them. True communism has never been tried. It was still early days”. | |||

"Certainly the UK needs a 'wake-up' call along the lines of Thatcherism in the 80's. Something that challenges all the bonkers stuff we have sleepwalked into. Like 9.5 mil. citizens dependant on state welfare benefits, like gormlessly watching our borders violated every day of the week, like tolerance of almost all petty crime. The question is, who has the balls to do it?" The trouble with a re-run of Thatcherism is that the unions she fought are a shadow of the force they were and there are no public utilities to flog off apart from the NHS. | |||

You’re writing a lot of words trying to convince yourself that Brexit can’t work rather than engaging with what we can do with it. The fact that a government department struggled to identify "benefits" doesn’t mean there aren’t any, it means we had leadership with no vision and no political will to implement real change. There are "opportunities" which is the word I used, you simply need to think about things in a different way... | |||

"Don't want to start another Brexit argument but the fact is that GDP is 2.5 less post Brexit ..." If you don't want to start an argument, you really shouldn't go around quoting "facts" that are actually just educated guesses. That 2.5% drop might be accurate, and it might not. There's no empirical way of measuring it, so it really isn't a "fact". | |||

"Well I hope things get better but don't see things improving in the near future. Don't want to start another Brexit argument but the fact is that GDP is 2.5 less post Brexit and bloomberg has predicted that it will be 4% less by 2035. Yes Richard tice called bloomberg a bunch of bitter remomers (despite it being a US company based in manhatten) " Economically after leaving a trade bloc, you would expect impact in the short to mid term. In my opinion we are walking in the shadow of the EU without knowing what to do next. | |||

It is from the ONS, but it's still just their best guess at how the UK would have performed if it hadn't left the EU, measured against how it actually has performed. "What else have I got to go on?" If you want to have an opinion on Brexit, the ONS figure is a good place to start your thinking. But it isn't a "fact". | |||

"we had all of that and more prior to the brextremists tearing it all up" We did? We had the ability to allow free movement from some EU nations, whilst not allowing it from others? We had the ability to make EU nationals apply for work visas? Maybe you're thinking of a different EU. | |||

"This thread is such an eye opener, mention opportunities and leftists are not happy. ![]() ![]() ![]() I don't know if that is a complement or not (I am really not sure or bothered either way) as I have never thought of myself as being a leftist! Because I am pro EU does that make me a leftist (genuine question)? I am also very pro UK - does that make me a leftist? Or a rightist? Or a centralist? A nationist? I want what is best for the UK, for Europe and essentially for everyone hence I feel strongly about things. But, you and most people on here, also want what is best for the UK although perhaps some don't want what is best for the EU but what box are they in? Are people actually in boxes or can they be in a number of boxes at the same time? Left, Right or centre or in-between what does it matter if we are looking for the best for our country and it's inhabitants? I don't see myself as a leftist but thank you for the compliment (or perhaps it wasn't a complement at all)! | |||
