Oh Dear

[Hymie]

If things weren’t bad enough for Brexiteers – day 2 of the Covid pandemic hearing heard evidence that the government’s response to the Covid pandemic was hindered due to Brexit.

Is there no aspect of UK living that has not been negatively impacted by the disaster that Brexit is?

[Hymie]

Heaven forbid I should be in favour of democracy.

[Hymie]

As I have said in other posts - to Brexiteers, the democratic Brexit referendum result is sacrosanct, and must never be undone by a future democratic referendum.

Oh the option to answer is back again now, it disappeared for about 10 minutes
Hymie accepting the outcome of a vote is democracy

OP
why do you keep incessantly trolling and posting this garbage, what are you trying to achieve ?...or like the other jester on here, you know, your little mate, are you just trying to get others to agree with you so you can march about feeling good about yourself ?...

//Heaven forbid I should be in favour of democracy//

Well that just sums you up doesnt it? You have not accepted democracy one iota to now make a comment like that makes you look very foolish.

Oh Dear.

I fail to see what is undemocratic about pointing out how corrupt/incompetent a democratically elected government is; or that it is undemocratic to point out that the result of a democratic referendum has lead to a disastrous situation for the UK.

Perhaps you could explain.

Hymie hymie hymie, don’t you know by now if you disagree with the stalwarts of AB you will be called a troll. .? :-)

[Hymie]

I’m waiting for a Labour government to be democratically elected – woe-betide any of these ABers who dare criticise them when they prove to be useless/corrupt/incompetent.

I’ll be reminding them of their objections to me pointing out how useless/corrupt/incompetent the democratically elected Tories were.

Add the SNP regime up here in Scotland to your list of incompetent useless aerosols,Hymie.

//...the UK was unique in having Brexit, which hindered the UK government’s response to the Pandemic.//

Could you explain how Brexit hindered the UK's response?

My opinion of the government's handling of the pandemic is that, apart from the vaccine rollout (which most definitely have been hindered had we still been EU members), it was an absolute shambles. But that was because of government and civil service ineptitude and nothing to do with Brexit.

[Hymie]

NJ – As a Brexiteer, perhaps you should write to the Covid pandemic inquiry and point out that they are wrong about Brexit hampering the UK government’s Covid response.

I didn't say they are wrong. I don't know whether they are right or wrong because I haven't been following the Covid enquiry. You've obviously been following the enquiry and I haven't so I asked if you could explain how the enquiry came to its conclusion.

The reason I cannot understand why Brexit hindered the government's handling of the pandemic is that, as far as I am aware, all countries (whether EU members or not) decided on their own approach. So perhaps you can help me out by explaining how our non-membership of the EU placed us at a disadvantage. I also cannot understand it as there are about eight times as many countries which are not in the EU as there are in it and I didn't hear of any of them suggesting they were disadvantaged by not being EU members.

Anti-brexiteers, whether on a forum or on a committee, are likely to claim all sorts of things are due to, or made worse, by Brexit. But the secret is to give such utter nonsense no heed as it only encourages more gibberish from them.

[emeritus]

Off goes Hymie to find another rubbish You Tube clip to support their claim !

But don't you enjoy seeing how that gibberish ties them in knots, OG?

I'm sitting in my holiday villa at the moment, waiting for torrential rain to stop. Let me enjoy myself a little! :-)

as youve previously stated NJ...its like taking candy from a baby (two babies including his little friend)

trying to discuss anything with either of them is like an atheist trying to discuss religion with a believer...an exercise in futility as theyll just stare and keep quoting the same mantra and twisting everything to suit their delusional standpoint

emeritus – here is the youtube video clip, containing facts for all Brexteers to rubbish.

[Peter Pedant]

the italian neighbours was
o me ha detto di Maaffy - come sta la poverina ?

and the viewer in irritation switches channel which is
God Ma, they have just told me about Miffy - how is she?

Like some of the off the wall remarks on AB, they can be better than the main text

[Peter Pedant]

hi me!
posters are swearing at you a lot less these days

is it because of the creeping realisation
christ this so called crazy was right all along? and all we did is laugh at him
