If this is 'good work' then it validates exactly what MIW said above.
MiW wants us to chuck in the towel today (the snowflake).
Ergo, his opinion can't validate anything.

It's called pragmatism Moonay. You ought to try it ?
And what is this good work you allude to?
Anyone who tries to educate themselves - no matter what the subject, and no matter what ridicule they may encounter - deserves praise for their efforts.
Surely, you're not suggesting I was trying to mislead anyone.Fair enough, though your post wasn't clear on what good work you were referring to in the context of the conversation.

Moonay, tbf you are normally sensible and balanced but on this one - justRichy....... ignore 'em mate. They're all getting a bit uppity cos the dodgy vote they won probably isn't going to deliver what they thought/wanted/were told.
Johnson, Rees-Mogg. Farage etc are busily lining their own pockets, and have more or less caved in to the fact that they had an open goal, and they did a Ronnie Rosenthal! (Note- that isn't meant in an anti semitic way).
Keep up the good work pal......& good luck.

Why is all this not in the Brexit thread
No nerve touched at all ?Which bit Hampton?
The 1st paragraph is admittedly tongue in cheek. The 2nd however is absolutely bob on. The last is merely a cheerio to a fellow poster.
Touched a nerve, eh?
By the way KDZ, just a thought re your statistics earlier. You said:
The UK economy is made up of:
1. Interntal trade
2 .Exports to the EU
3. Imports from the EU
4. Exports to rest of world
5. Imports from rest of world
5 effective pieces of the pie - in which about 10% of our economy is exporting to the EU or 12% if you include transits to non EU countries that go via the EU. This is true.
Don't you think that's a little misleading to quote the 10% without that additional context. Normally, when dealing with percentages, one presumes that 100% is attainable. You stating that only 10% of our economy is in exports to the EU suggests/implies/leads readers to believe that we export 90% outside the EU.
I appreciate that this isn't what you were saying ......... but it's what your statement implied ...... .or at least, it's what it leads the reader to infer.
Lies, damned lies, Brexit shit, and statistics.
....... but the reality is only 10-12% of the economy would be effected negatively . I dont think there will be tariffs no matter what tbh but in that worst case scenario approx 88% of the economy remaining largely unaffected is the flip side and that is a drastically different picture than is ever mentioned.
No, I didn't misunderstand the context KDZ ........... I merely pointed out the potential for deception (intended or otherwise) in your figures.
Having said all that, given your comments above, it's got to be asked ......... is it all going to be worth it ?
