What does that have to do with people saying we'd be skint as soon as we voted out? :rofl:
stop moving the goalposts, mate. you might want to take a look at the first post you made that i replied to. you were clearly talking about "brexit" not the referendum:

But Brexit was supposed to destroy the economy and leave us all skint. :mellow:
also, i'm pretty sure ppl who ACTUALLY said that assumed that a vote out would mean that you triggered article 50 and not stall for months... makes no sense to expect the severe economic consequences (or gloat about the lack thereof) from leaving the EU without actually doing it.

You can never tell with Germans, you have about as fine a track record as the UK picking your leaders. :mellow:
oh sure, you couldn't tell... our previous conversations gave you the impression that i seriously considered farage / johnson "great leaders", huh? are you really so desperate that you have to insult your own intelligence like that? well anyway, now you know for sure.
i just find it amusing how negatively you are suddenly talking about the people who sold you and your fellow brexiteers the idea of leaving in the first place, just saying...

Are you daft? We've just had a PM turn tail and run, a new one elected and one that is, quite surprisingly, pushing to gather her small army of government donkies to get on the same brexit wavelength. Naturally, such things take time. :wacko:
no, i'm not daft, and i prefer you keep this civil, there's no need for ad hominem. i'm merely pointing out the fact that it's curious how people who seemed so eager to leave the EU suddenly don't mind the delay. to me it looks like many ARE indeed concerned with the possible consequences after seeing what just the referendum caused and how those people in charge of the leave campaign had no clue how to proceed, just declared their mission accomplished and abandoned ship like rats...
i mean it's not like triggering article 50 means you're out immediately, there are two years for negotiations but at least it would signal everyone that your political leadership is being serious about it, respecting the people's vote and providing at least some kind of planning dependability to the rest of the EU...
