// The remainiacs are LOVING all these delays aren't they ?? Made their day !//
the remoaners are loving all the delays and losing no opportunity of looking anxious and saying in a worried voice - "we always said it was much much more complicated
and all the turkeys led by The Nige said " no we want Christmas NOW!"
and honestly absolutely no one listened to us "

“dannyk13, 34.4 % voted for 'Brexit' the rest either voted 'Remain' or did not vote. Hardly a 'majority'! .”
You’ve got the figures wrong, Eddie. The turnout was 72.21%. Of those who voted, 51.89% chose to leave whilst 48.11% voted to remain. (Electoral Commission figures). So 37.47% of the electorate voted to leave whilst 34.74% chose to remain. But never mind. Let’s therefore put your statement like this:
“dannyk13, 34.74% voted to remain whilst the rest either voted 'Leave' or did not vote. Hardly a 'majority'! .
Anyway, it does not matter. Almost all plebiscites are decided on the number who vote, not the number who were eligible to do so.
It would be interesting to know how this apparent “democratic deficiency” would have been viewed by the Remainers had the result gone the other way.

A member of my family works for a company that has close dealings with government departments. At a recent meeting an aide to a minister told him or her (I am being very careful not to reveal any clues to my family member) that
some of the staff being recruited for the new Brexit department are those
that are being transferred from their present government department jobs as they are useless there.

Another nonsense troll thread ?
No the UK is not rudderless; one needs no chart to move towards a destination that is clear in front of you, but options are being considered as they ought to be. No one is waving flags but there are some malcontents determined to spread doom and gloom despite everything going much better than anticipated. But they have the right to misrepresent reality by posting such threads if they wish. It is their own reputation they risk.

I will post my own analogy in reply to the op.
The EU is now a rogue concept, the Fuhrers having neither morals nor vision, whilst the galley slaves are straining to escape the chains, the submarine volunteer fanatics are frenzied in their attempts to indiscriminately torpedo HMS Brittania. With a series of underhand attacks bordering on the criminally insane which are designed to intimidate innocent women and children on board, if not to ruin their lives and their children's lives. As these attacks are carried out under the pretence of superiority of thought, they grind their teeth and wail whilst feverishly concocting even more devilish onslaughts.
. . . - - - . . . This was the last message received from the depths. No one cares or is willing to bail them out.
