Probably because you haven’t actually posed any questions - just drivelled on and basically bored us with your blather ... but what questions have you actually posed? It’s possible there’s one but my eyes tend to glaze over with your mind-numbing prattle.
You sir are an insufferable bore and a verbal bully. The way you treat the millions of UK citizens who voted leave and to take back control over their own Nation is nothing short of contemptuous. Your condescending manner and attitude, along with your ardent follower Jen Jen, is at times hilarious but more often despicable. Who is it that gave you the God given right to scorn those who had the temerity to disagree with your views some 4 plus years ago? What is it that makes you, Jen Jen and all the others who voted remain, so dismissive of those who voted to leave?
You say that you served in HM Armed Forces, that being so I imagine that you swore allegiance to HM Queen Elizabeth II and her Government, I doubt very much your oath demanded that you swear a similar allegiance to a bunch of Foreign MEP or Diplomats, please correct me if I am wrong. Presumable you were also fighting for the freedoms and democratic rights of the citizens of the UK, those self-same rights, and freedoms, along with Democratic political views, you now so disapprove of as they do not align with your view of the world.
You have the audacity to attack other members of this forum and fellow British Citizens when they quite rightly point out that had it not been for huge sacrifices of the British and Commonwealth Forces, along with those of the Allied Forces, Europe today would have been a much different place. Yet now having retired from the Armed Forces you tell us all that you are ashamed to call yourself British, well in that I would have to agree, I too would be ashamed to call you British.
What I don’t understand is that as you are now living and working in Spain, presumably legally and resident here, yet you still feel it necessary to even comment on the actions of those who have chosen to remain in the UK. Whether the UK had voted to stay or remain in the EU would make a jot of difference to you or all those others who have decided to leave the UK and live elsewhere, myself included. What you seemingly fail to either understand or accept is the fact that Europe and its wonderfully diverse Nations, is not the EU and yet you and others constantly insist on conflating the 2.
I for my part decided to go live in France some 15 years ago, long before BREXIT was even thought of and it was always the aim to eventually relocate and retire to Spain, that we did 2 years ago and are now resident in Spain. I am not an economist nor am I a politician so unlike your good self, who seems to have been blessed with such wisdom, I have no idea how BREXIT will pan out, only time will tell, but I would stand shoulder to shoulder with the majority who voted leave as the referendum was the largest single show of Democracy for many a year. To diss the result, and verbally denigrate those who voted leave, as you do and have done on many occasions, is a sign of both your weakness and arrogance in full measure.
You need to get a life, relax, and enjoy whatever time you have left and stop fighting a battle, which you and others lost, over 4 years ago. Time may well prove you to be right, equally it may not, I doubt however that either of us we will be around to find out.
As a wise man once said, ‘I may disapprove of what you have to say but I will defend to the death your right to say it’. On that note I will leave you and will not respond again to this thread, have a good day.
