Good Wishes.

I hope that I can speak on behalf of my fellow Brexit ABers who have debated over the weeks on the referendum, when I say:

My I extend my best wishes to those who we have opposed, but can now sympathise with them over what must be a very sad day for them, I can truly empathise with them because had the vote gone the other way, I would have also felt the same as they must be feeling now.

But please look on the bright side, it is not the end of the world and I am sure that we can all look forward to some very interesting times, which will in turn set us off once again debating away on certain issues that are sure to arise.

//Congrats on winning and thank you for messing up our future and for the possibility of us losing so much.//

what's happened has happened - but to suggest already that the future is messed up gives no credit to those who now have to work with last night's decision.

the future's not set. there's no fate but what we make for ourselves.

No, I meant, Islay, AOG.

[mushroom25]

[youngmafbog]

No mushroom has common sense.

[murraymints]

Islay how on earth can you say that...that is an unsubstantiated sweeping and quite hysterical response

Thank you Minty, I agree with the OP too.

And I think it great that experienced folk has helped the young from making an error.

[murraymints]

I am not a pensioner for sure ! lol...

[murraymints]

and age is immaterial...majority opinion is what counts and matters in a democracy...pure and simple..

Perhaps we British people respect the views and opinions, earned from years of experience, of our senior citizens more than other Countries. The young will be lucky, to one day acknowledge the debt of gratitude that they owe for this vast well of experience and common sense that they were fortunate to have the benefit of.

Yes and I was also referring to that person.

[mushroom25]

interesting to think that, given the UK's first past the post voting system, the finishing margins from last night could have resulted in a landslide victory for the side with the smaller %age vote....

[Old_Geezer]

A two horse race is usually first past the post wins.

[jubieanna]

Maybe Islay should remember those 'oap's' fought and died For this country. Where would we be now without them?

[Zacs-Master]

Don't set jim360 off again for gawds sake

[jubieanna]

oops sorry ;)

FGS, AOG posts a goodhearted conciliatory message to stop the bickering and it all starts over again. So why don't you move on, and if you can't say something nice on this thread then don't post.
