Guided Missile

Oh, I see. You were arguing a hypothetical position that you didn't believe in. What a waste of bandwidth...

I didn't say I wouldn't accept the result of a second referendum. I just said I wouldn't want to live in a "democracy" that didn't honour the result of the first one, nor the two main parties representing 85% of the electorate not honouring the manifestos upon which their MP's stood. You make some strange arguments, but I guess an indefensible position forces you to be creative in justifying them...you sound like a bloody Labour supporter trying to explain their policy on Brexit.

I would accept that democracy has failed in the UK and emigrate to the US, to be honest...I wouldn't whine like a b!tch, as the Remainers on this thread do.

The only party promising to revoke the referendum result are the Lib Dems. If they win the election, I will personally travel to Oslo and buy you dinner, dressed as Jo Swinson....

Just for your information, Mims bravely spoke out on child protection and her direct intervention in the Liberal Democrats protection of a suspected sex offender, Mark McCormick, who had access to children through his role as Chairman of Bursledon Parish Council, led to his imprisonment for 17 years. His victims included a poster on this site and many others in the area, including one young lad who committed suicide and a young women from Netley whom he raped when she was 16. If you want the grim details, read this local news article after he was sentenced. The Liberal Democrats protected this animal, despite knowing he was a suspected paedophile. They did just the same years ago with Cyril Smith. Mims was a great asset to Bursledon residents, whatever their politics.

I've found my candidate:

Updating the OP, the good news keeps coming and contrary to the MSM, there will be a FTA with the US, a prospect I highlighted over three years ago: Worth a read, as it is written by Nile Gardiner, a former aide to Margaret Thatcher, God bless her...

They also hated Thatcher for her attitude towards the miners. Now they've gone all Extinction Rebellion. Imagine a policy by the Tories to re-open the mines and push for energy generation from coal at a similar level to Germany. All the lefties would be marching against employment for miners. No wonder Trump got elected...

I would do, but I have an important delivery of piano wire to take care of...

More to the point, where is shurlock? Must be on holiday...

Sanctimonious? Moi...?

I think you'll find that shurlock, aka Gavyn Davies has stopped posting, because some people can only be arrogant and offensive when they are an anonymous coward. Apart from me, of course. I'm arrogant and offensive, but not anonymous nor a coward.

Just to tidy up a few loose ends, Gavyn "the Sage of Wandsworth"...

...and Gavyn Davies aka shurlock does the exact opposite that GM advocated and his Fulcrum Multi Asset Trend Fund (a pure trend-following fund that invests across commodities, equities, currencies, and fixed income) loses 15.2% of its value in one year. Luckily, it was someone else's life savings that Gavyn aka shurlock used, to short sterling. Not expecting him to post a reply, though. Since I outed Taunton's finest, he's in hiding, hoping his investors don't notice his arrogance on this thread and the mediocre returns across all of his funds and the billions he's "managing". Easy money, this fund management malarky...ask Neil Woodford

The thread is about a potential free trade deal with the US....

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be...

Yeah...

Meanwhile, here: Boris playing a blinder, Gavyn having a mare...

shurlock

I am pretty sure shurlock is none other than Gavyn Davies, or he thinks he is. Either way, being a multimillionaire socialist economist who gave advice to Jim Callaghan and Gordon Brown must be a p!$$ stain on anyone's CV, however much he made out of the Goldman Sachs flotation. If I'm right, an even bigger p!$$ stain is coming on a football forum and acting like an arrogant tool. Anyway, I'm convinced he's that famous old Tauntonian and he is no longer Herbert to me, but Gavyn, a walking demonstration of why socialists make sh!t economists....

Meanwhile, Boris continues to play a blinder:

Get rid of the traitors in the party - done Replace sheep in wolves clothing with loyal Conservatives - done Unify the party - done Go to the EU with a freedom charter - done Taunt a divided Marxist dominated Labour, joke of a party during the run up - done Call an election -done Message: The People vs Parliament - done Arrange a deal with Nigel - ongoing Win a substantial majority - odds-on Watch Corbyn, Labour and the EU project sink without a trace - odds on Like I said, playing a blinder.

Crash and burn for soggy:

You obviously didn't read the Guardian article I referred to, from Mon 26 Nov 2018. Here is an extract, pops, which refers specifically to the drug featured in the "documentary": Channel 4 - Fake News
