    Ha!

    Well, it's my argument that convinced more than half the country to vote for Brexit.

    Presumably those who voted against it were the coloureds, the eastern Europeans, and a handful of deluded, leftist white folk.

    This can't be for real surely?

    Sadly, you are probably right on that one.

    This bit of your post is exactly why I used the word 'sadly' to start my reply to the first part.

    Since when was 17 million more than half the country? I really wish we had a moderator to deal with this obvious troll.

    It's an excellent proxy for half the country, swale. Kinda like taking a statistical sample of the population and extrapolating to the overall population. Of course, that's a subtlety that seems to have gone right over your head.

    My statement is correct. More than half the country wanted (and probably still wants) out of the EU, tighter border controls, and laws enacted and enforced to return those who should not be here back to their homes in eastern europe and the middle east.

    I'd say you're suffering a very bad case of confirmation bias old chap. And no, your simple misunderstanding of the concept of 'half the country' did not go right over my head.
