2 EDF faves: Brexit and Waitrose

No. You are being deliberately obtuse.

It doesn't help your argument to say stuff I never said and then try to knock it down!

Your original point remains inapposite. Now so is your follow up.

[robbin]

But for the avoidance of doubt there were experts on both sides and so-called experts and 'experts' in abundance too. I thought there were more dodgy 'experts' trotted out on the Remain side (probably because of the vested interests they tend to have) but that is nothing whatsoever to do with whether I favoured Remain or Leave - just my view.

But to suggest (as you seem to) that I've taken a view against certain 'experts' because they were in favour of the Remain camp just underlines the fact that you have not read my post properly - had you done so it would have been pretty clear I voted to remain, otherwise I would not have said "I'm disappointed about the vote result"!

> probably because of the vested interests they tend to have

who's 'they'?

[robbin]

Read it again - it's clear enough.

[miga]

no, it's not.

Define vested interest (V) amounts as follows:

RSCE - remain so-called experts V

LSCE - leave so-called experts V

RE - remain experts V

LE - leave experts V

R - remain opinion holders in general V

L - leave opinion holders in general V

Are you saying:

RSCE > LSCE

RE > LE

R > L

...or something else?

[Angelina]

yes, it's clear enough.

Sorry but that's complete nonsense! Your time would have been better spent reading my clear and simple wording than writing all that guff!

To save you scrolling up - I said "I thought there were more dodgy 'experts' trotted out on the Remain side (probably because of the vested interests they tend to have).

What part of that sentence don't you understand? You ask "who is 'they'?" Seriously?

[miga]

Do you find that people are generally unpleasant towards you?

[uncleglen]

Many champagne socialists of the Corbynite camp use the Co-op....

I think the Archbishop of Canterbury summed it up when he said the poor suffer under mass immigration.

And the poor may also be poorly educated and unable to hold their own in this debate- which is dominated by the verbosity of the hysterical middle-classes, who, in the main, branded them racist- completely out of hand.

No. But then I'm pleased to say that in the real world neither do I come across people that deliberately try to pick an argument by setting up false constructs or by asking fatuous questions designed merely to provoke a response or to make a bad point.

[miga]

That's good to hear. I thought it might be an issue for you given your arrogant, pompous tone b/w inability to make coherent point or correct yourself. Anyway, sounds like you've got it covered by being completely diffeeent IRL.

[Jules-and-Boo]

Miga - are you trying to be obnoxious? Or is it just coming across that way?
