There's some guy on YouTube who spent q fortune building a nuclear bunker in his garden! No idea why his parents allowed it but it didn't look fake.

Is he American?

Colin's bunker was sponsored by a television channel as part of the promotional activities for one of their shows. As for why his parents allowed it... unless I'm mistaken, it's his house.

The Irish are already trying to push their weight about IMO, since we have decided to leave they have been going on and on about a soft border, now as you all know I am a remainer, but we voted out, so out it is, I would suggest a hard border in Ireland, how can it be soft? anyone in the EU can get into southern Ireland and walk over the border, it must be a hard border. Back to the topic about we were duped into voting out, well I believe if the truth was told and not bull back then the vote would have been the other way. If the vote was run again now though the out vote IMO would be bigger, a lot of people and me included are not liking the way the Europeans are treating us at the moment, I have gone from a remainer to an outy due to this, I am discusted at the treatment we are getting, who do the Irish think they are? a poor country without two hapennies to rub together trying to control our borders, well fcuk em.

PS, I was all for a soft border before the potato growers started dictating the odds.

I have counted about 20 sparks on here, the rest are wanabees.

I'm afraid you're wrong, the reality did and still does need explaining.
No one knew the outcome of leaving and it still needs finalizing, if as you say you know and have allways known then please explain it to Theresa May and the rest of the idiots in the Conservative party. They still havent a clue.

I was correct that it was obviously to complicated for some to understand

I voted out and would do again in a heartbeat.

We should make our own rules but they main reason is immigration. We do NOT have a housing crises we have a population crises. Unrestricted immigration is the cause of our housing crises and other associated problems like pollution and traffic problems.

Nigel forage deserves a knighthood, without him the country wouldn't have got the vote. It's just a shame our positions are not carrying out our wishes.

That won't change, we can stop everyone except EU people coming in now but don't, nothing will change, the figures will still be the same in 10 years.

 

[sparksfly]

Out.
My only balanced source of news is "Have I got news for you", "last Leg" & "Mock the week" . Was Nothing to do with immigration...just the lies.

Hi guys,

This may have been done before, and to be honest I can’t be bothered to check. I was just wondering whether what percentage of you voted Brexit and what percentage didn’t?

I read all this stuff about what type of person voted out and what type voted in but the people I meet on in the trades all voted out. So is it a trade based opinion?

Thoughts would be welcome.

Mark the Spark

I, my wife and my three daughters voted in. We do not want to screw up the future for our next generation. Leaving the customs union will cause no end of problems.

Unfortunately there has been a whole raft of events that have played into the leave side of things in respect of immigration. Islamaphobia due to IS and the conflicts in the Middle East. Ironic that most of the nutters involved have grown up in the UK and Europe, probably with mental health issues and fallen foul of nutty Imans preaching in the west and using Western ‘uncontrolled’ social media. FWIW I don’t think the EU can work economically and am glad we stayed outside the Euro. As mention above, if we get a post Brexit industrial boom where are the workers going to come from?

Nobody knows the definitive answer since the details haven't yet been thrashed out but this article might help, unless of course you automatically disagree on principle with anything that particular source has to say.

Although I believe the EU isn't perfect and has its problems, I voted to remain because by staying in, I know where I stand.
All the marlarky of 350million a week for the NHS seemed too good to be true.
As for free trade deals, the vote leave guy who knocked on my door couldn't explain what exactly I couldn't buy now that will be able to with a free trade deal.

I also believe closing the borders may have a catch to it. They may close it to the Europeans, but open it up to others like the South Americans, Africans, and Asians. If one was to complain, they can turn around and say "Sorry fella, but you voted to leave the EU and stop freedom of movement to people of Europe. You never mentioned you wanted to stop people from South America or Africa coming here."

Staying in is better I believe.
Better the devil you know

OUT, the sooner the better, without paying them a penny more!

 

[Delboybully]

The best part of leaving is we can choose the skills of the people we let in. Not just anyone from Europe, we could choose people with the skills we need from outside Europe that under the current rule we can't.

The real interesting thing about the vote is that most people didn't believe anything the politicians said of either side and went with their gut instinct. Both sides told lies.

I voted out for exactly the same reasons my sister voted in. A future for our kids.

 

[a-z electrics]

Don't know how we allowed ourselves to get into this mess in the first place.. how many got killed defending our freedom in 2 world wars, and we then give it away!
