Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.

IF that happened, then we could leave.
But it hasn't happened.
But our Tory government already is super right leaning and that's all we have now.
If you voted remain you voted to be a part of the larger EU, if you voted leave you voted to only be governed by the tories.
If you voted leave you fucked up big time and you're on the defensive. Swallow your pride and admit it was a bad choice at the time and it's a bad choice now. Nothing good has come of it.
The only place you feel like it's a win is in the fantasy you just mentioned where nazi EU becomes a thing and we escaped just in time.
But reality is that the UK is a lot more right leaning than the EU as a whole, they're ruining our country, and you voted to give them more power.
No, if you voted to leave, you voted to restore sovereignty to parliament. The people get the government they deserve. We don't need oversight. That's bollocks.
We are out of the CAP. The replacement Agriculture Policy removes production subsidy. That's all I wanted.
We are already back in Horizon and have a seat at the table at the European Political Community
You are on the defensive, not me mate. I work in agtech, brexit and covid have been great for business and will help mitigate climate change.
The government they deserve. Ok. Enjoy disasters being great for business while the country crumbles around you.

Obviously
