Raab absolutely typifies.... 12:08 - Nov 18 with 7874 viewsHerbivore

....both the arrogance and ignorance that characterises Tory Brexiteers. Not only did he not realise that the Dover-Calais crossing is vital to the UK economy, today he has come out and said that what was lacking in negotiations was simply political will, suggesting that if we'd just tried a bit harder we'd have walked away with a cracking bespoke deal that delivers on the Brexit pipedream. Then there's this chestnut:

"I do think there is a point at which - we probably should have done it before - were we just to say 'I'm sorry this is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, we cannot accept those dictated terms'."

It seems he never has and still doesn't grasp what a complex thing Brexit is. The fact that many Brexiteers think May simply hasn't tried hard enough, whilst totally failing to offer anything themselves when given the chance, is quite staggering. They still don't get it. They still believe in the pipedream even when they've been intimately involved in the process and had to run away because it got too hard.

The whole thing is a total, total shambles.

Well, you sort of have been for all your political life until Corbyn became leader and you've now decided to have very high standards.


Did you really just suggest he's been a fan of racists?

Sure did. If you're going to pass judgement on Corbyn as a racist and a liar then you'd expect to have the same level thrown back, wouldn't you?

Anything else is utter, opportunistic hypocrisy.

One of the broadsheets this morning has suggested that if baffoon Johnson or one of his cronies get to the PM job that Mogg will be named chancellor.

Oh Dear!!!!!


Given that the European Research Group has proven themselves unable to count to 48, that would not be a promising development.

I'm basing my judgment on the things he has said and done, coupled with the views of people like Sir Trevor Phillips, former head of the race relations board.

What have I said and done to suggest I am a fan of racists?

But I'm sure GB was a fierce campaigner on the inside. And has also never approved of a dishonest campaign in the name of politics or been highly selective with his information or words when making his case. So I wholeheartedly apologise and withdraw my accusation. I have no idea why I could even think that.

That link is full of specific examples. There are clearly many more too if anyone wants to dig them all up and drown the board in evidence.

But is GB any more "a fan of racists" any more than Corbyn is a racist because of the organisation and some of the people both have associated themselves with? In response to his posts on the subject I'm just trying to see what standard applies here — or whether he thinks there's a different one for him.

He is a dishonest and shady poster though — but probably corrupted by his love of the game of politics and his obsession with Corbyn.

If you didn't play out your usual histrionics and dealt with a point two people made immediately when calling out your hypocrisy, then people would think more of you.

And they'd certainly have to read a lot less pointless posturing and moral outrage.

Still waiting for the examples.

Your words come across as somebody who is, a-hem, rather tired and emotional. I'll leave to to your afternoon companion.

I just gave them in the first link I could be bothered to find. You've been a fan of the Tories during all of that.

Brexiteers are beginning to realise what an absolute disaster they’ve unleashed on the country and are now trying to distance themselves from the fallout by blaming the remainer May and suggesting that if only they’d been in charge the unicorns would be here by now.

Charlatans and cowards.

Credit (for now) to Gove who at least is sticking around to try and make it work.
