He's on late-night booze mode again, SPB. Worry not. An analyst would be able to write a whole thesis on his hysterical insecurities. Your post is spot on. Unfortunately, no leaver will admit that they voted leave on racist grounds now that they have had quite a long time to rationalise their "decision" to us.

Here's what's happened so far.

EU citizens are either leaving in droves or deciding not to come here at all. Why? Because they have heard about the hate crimes and the hostility towards "outsiders." If they come here they will endure severe job insecurity from now on, if they can get a job at all, not to speak of vilification from brainless xenophobes. They'd be mad to come here/stay here! But no worries! There are LOADS of trained-up skilled BRITS who can step into the breach! British jobs for British workers, old boy! The Empire strikes back!


NOT!!

The CBI are shitting themselves and the FTSE companies won't sign Theresa's letter. They know that they can't make it without those EU workers. Theresa can't make it without undemocratic Henry VIII laws, a dirty deal with a bunch of near-fascists and an unconstitutional attempt to stuff Commons committees with Tories. Meanwhile, the EU bigwigs, who have come to realise that, by the day of brexit, the UK will be an economic basket case (we're more than half way there already by every measure), they'll be a damn sight better off with us out, are laughing at the absolute buffoon who we've put in charge of brexit. Fifteen months on, less than eighteen to go, progress? Nil or backwards!

We're half-way down the skyscraper in freefall, but why look at the tarmac below when the little puffy clouds look so nice!
