Boris will go down in History as the P/M who
.............Didn't Get Brexit Done just left the UK in a state of Chaos.
What a shambles you have caused Boris. Go now and let the Country start repairing the Damage you have done.

Vcan @ 23 17. I don't give a stuff who N/J was quoting It was still his best answer ever.

TTT and naomi.

The usual response with personal insults rather than factual argument.

I must have misread the side of the bus.

[ToraToraTora]

you did, it was a statement followed by a suggestion, read it again. Show me the promise.

[ToraToraTora]

there you go, read it again:

"We send the EUSSR £350 million a week
Let's fund the NHS instead.
see , statement + suggestion. Show me the promise.

[JDavis]

It's incredibly naive (or disingenuous) to believe this wasn't intended to deceive.

Still, never mind, it's all turning out well.

[ToraToraTora]

It was saying that instead of giving the EUSSR the money we could choose what to spend it on ourselves. Don't know why so many seem to find that so hard to grasp. Ironically we are actually spending of £400m a week more on the NHS now.

[ToraToraTora]

over

[gulliver1]

JDavies of course the side of the bus was misleading and a downright lie ,Boris put it there , what more can one expect.

[ToraToraTora]

yes, Gully suffers from RBID, a common affliction of the remoaner.

[gulliver1]

15.18 Don't know where the £350m went to off the side of Boris's Bus ? probably to his crony club fund, but with the present state of the NHS, which is in a critical condition at the moment they didn't get it

[naomi24]

JDavis, The people who came up with the slogan were not in a position to offer any promises. They weren’t ‘the government’. It was a slogan designed to suggest what could be done with the money saved. We’ve had this argument for years now and still people don’t understand.

[gulliver1]

15,43 Who paid for the slogan ????Naomi

[naomi24]

I think the funding for the Brexit campaign came mainly from donations, Gulliver. On the other hand the government used £9 million of taxpayers money on Remain leaflets sent to every home in the country. But I’m sure you know that.

[gulliver1]

A little of topic TTT ,but how about Yvette Cooper for the next pm with Angela Rayner as her deputy.

16,04 I think the Bus advert was funded by the Tory Party at the request of Johnson & Cronies

[Paigntonian]

Brexit is done. Move on.

[naomi24]

What you ‘think’ - or more accurately, want to think, is irrelevant to the reality, Gulliver.

[JDavis]

OK, it wasn't a specific pledge but it created an expectation, as anyone with a basic understanding of psychology knows. Dominic Cummins said, after the vote, Leave would not have won without it.

[JDavis]

(a) Brexit is obviously not done and (b) it is not necessarily the democratic will of the people as is often expressed.
