    But Remainers continue to spout about the damage Brexit has done - without ever quantifying those statements.
    If I can try a variant of Ulley's question, which potential benefits were you hoping for and how were they frustrated?

    In answer to the opening question, I voted remain and would do so again, but as with Nardendee, I accepted that we had to honour the decision in the referendum. I don’t see a need for me to pretend that leaving was a good thing for the UK though.

    I am hoping that the new government will deal with Europe in a slightly more grown-up fashion than the last lot and that it will be possible to smooth off some of the rough edges of our post Brexit arrangements.

    Why are you adopting that stance? You felt moved enough by the thread to post about ‘benefits being prevented’ by ‘the Left’. Surely you would want to hammer the point home by explaining what you meant and giving examples?

    You are going to have people thinking that you just said something that sounded good when you read it in the Daily Express.

    I won’t sleep tonight worrying about that. I’ve made my point.

    You haven't made a point - you've made a claim that you are seemingly unable to justify.

    The point is, the leave faction won in the referendum

    Get over it

    Still absolutely befuddled... I can't work out if Corbyn, Benn, the TUSC or Socialist Labour acted as Eurosceptics whilst secretly ruining Boris Johnson's plans...

    ...or if it's just regurgitated, baseless nonsense. I guess we'll never know.
