True to form anything a true brexiteer doesn't like is against Brits, against the UK, against freedom, typically Brussels cabal dictatorship, etc., etc.
Of course Continental European (including those on an Emerald Island) don't feel happy to see our friend from Britain leave, but if they really want so be it. And what with all the kicking and screaming towards the E.U. 27 I still wonder about the 'business as usual'. Wishful thinking comes to mind.
So, to not agree with a fanatic will get you into troubles, accusations of hatred, ignorance, fake news articles, personal attacks, you name it, I've got it thrown at me. Luckily Dutch uncles have thick skin.
Oh, by the way, apart from 'take back out freedom' as easy slogan I haven't seen much in more tangible arguments. No doubt the British negotiation team will be hard at it in Brussels with PM Maybe touring EU capitals again to seek support, promising this or that and trying not to promise too much or the same to more than one. Pity that EU heads of states regularly meet, Ministers regularly meet, the EU parliament regularly meets. Britain was part of that, but left on it's own free will. Fine.

Britain left on it's own free will. Fine.. That's what has vexed you Brussels puppets. DEMOCRACY in action. Oh and of course a large chunk of income goes too.

No, what amazes us is the shallowness of arguments regarding the brexit. The lies which both brexit supporters and remain supporters had to use to further their respective cases. So 52% of people who voted voted leave, 48% voted remain, looking at countries in the UK, only England and Wales had a clear majority on leave, Scotland and Northern Ireland on remain. Democracy in action means Scotland and NI have to leave as well. As for income, so what. Netto about 8 bililon Euro on a budget of 161 billion. Of course, brexit will be felt in EU27, but so be it. We still have the common market, still the size and numbers. People will complain, but the feeling is growing that the sooner Britain is no longer an obstructive member the better. Brittannia rules itself, fine. Elections in the Netherlands, France, Germany and even Italy, all after the brexit referendum show no desire to sail off like Britain. No nexit, no frexit, etc., etc. Democratically. Puppets anyone?
