You still can't perceive it. You were not "stood on solid ground". That's the problem. Your understanding is akin to the scientific perception of the universe pre-Einstein - massively deluded.

But I'm not laying claim to any certainty about the future of the UK after brexit. You, and others on here are claiming you know better, you have done all along. That it will be a disaster. Supported by massive confirmation bias from the sources used. And none of you have given the slightest thought to the possibility that the bloc will have to change or die. 5 years from now that edifice you put so much undeserved store in will likely have become vastly different to that which exists now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I haven't. I have said it will ultimately end in tears, as do all such vainglorious projects, and the fallout will be dangerous and not pretty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quilp Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Indeed, only once the UK has finally left will we then have a start date for the evolution of decay in Europe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you mean the black hole. Won't be too long for the EU. We're in the endgame. It isn't the end, but it is likely to be the beginning of the end.

It isn't the end, but it is likely to be the beginning of the end. You have been saying that for years...and yet never quite able to say when... Like all "good" soothsayers, if you leave your time scale and predictions vague enough, you might be right eventually. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
