    There's never been a "massive majority" for anything.

    Anyway, if you're so confident.... get behind a 2nd ref. Let's put the issue beyond doubt.

    @Slant well done

    Oh really? Seems they're a bit slow there, I fully expect to get an outright ban before the evening's out.

    Oh, Yeah? Ask @xskarma about the special treatment I get. I feel treated really special, I get an infraction for "GTFO". And now I have yet another burner account talking shit to me. Seriously... this is wrong on so many levels.

    Special treatments or whatever, I think it would be good to talk about the topic at hand, not discuss moderation, which still is against the rules.

    Anyway, is there any actual, meaningful movement or is everyone just treading water until the EU elections, to then repeat the whole back and forth again?

    @Legin Dude, that other forum is a joke. Can't take any of them more serious than Dribs. I did give them the benefit of the doubt, but I don't think I'll keep posting there. Waste of effort. But interesting experience to dive into a pure and unadulterated Brexiteer bubble. Jesus Christ are they deluded. I thought Dribs was a unique phenomenon. Apparently, he's not. :P

    Actually I thought you were very good over there. Reminded me of a couple of years ago on here pre referendum, you are still peddling the same old EU narrative though and whatever you say is more likely to convert an undecided voter towards Brexit than remain, so thanks I guess.

    I was quite tempted to do the reverse of @Legin and invite them here with a link, but you know, Brexit is going to win without your help as you have just witnessed - We are 17.4 million. How, if you are such a good organisation, do you even begin to make that many enemies?

    only 17million, wasnt the combined UK population like 66million?

    Are you forgetting the maths lesson I gave you? You've lost a million of those to Father Time already. Polls suggest you've actually lost more than that to people realising their stupidity. You HAD 17 million. In the past. The EU elections will show us how many you have. The polls suggest it's a lot lower than 17 million.

    It's also interesting to see you go back to the broad satire you were doing a while back. I guess you've got past the anger phase of mourning for Brexit. You will get to acceptance soon, trust me. The worst is over for you.
    When challenging a Kzin, a simple scream of rage is sufficient. You scream and you leap.

    The funny thing is I still can't post there. You're up to 76 posts lol, I'm stuck at 1. I wrote a perfectly polite reply to the guy who posted the "EU is turning into a communist state" link and the mods haven't approved it. This is possibly because one mod has "Leaving the EUSSR" in his location description.

    These guys think there is an agenda to transform the EU into a communist superstate?! Ummm.. they might want to pass this on to Corbyn who is desperate to leave the EU on the basis it “is staffed by bankers”.

    Mr D, the conclusion I'm coming to is that the vast majority of people don't want to debate. They just want to hear their own opinions reflected back at them. Now - if there's one thing it’s not possible to accuse me of it's that. Time and time again over the last couple of years I've accepted other people's positions and altered my own. My initial point was about echoboxes. By all means, post a reciprocal link. At least I know I’ll be able to actually post a reply to them here!

    @LeGin Tufnel Erm, it's just that megathread. Any regular thread you can post in as much as you like.

    Once you get to 15 posts, you can spam the mega thread, too.

    I did wonder why it seems the 75th anniversary isn't getting nearly the attention the 50th did. Makes sense I guess, all the people who were there are dead now.

    What better way to respect WWII vets (living or deceased) than to invite a man who called Nazi's "fine people" to speak in our Parliament and be hosted by the Queen. 10/10 Mr Hunt.

    While I agree it's not right to say 17m is the majority of people in the UK, it's still the majority of people who gave a fuck and actually voted. Anyone not voting is basically saying "whatever dude, I am behind the option that wins".

    The real question is how many of those 17 million believe in leaving at any cost now it has become so obvious that the Leave campaign was so full of lies. Would they all still be pro-Brexit even if it was a no-deal disaster, a bad deal capitulation or a Brexit-In-Name-Only pointless endeavour?
