I was thinking earlier this morning, Keith, that I may have allowed enough time to say "let's talk again, if we are prepared to make the effort to understand the other's point of view. That doesn't mean we have to agree, but we do have to think about them."

I wonder, though. "Like you he can just say he does not accept them." Hmmm.

You seem to have missed that I said "You may think they are the right thing to do". There's no criticism in that: many people do think the power balance between the EU and the UK is wrong and they are perfectly entitled to that view and to have voted accordingly.   But that is not the same as saying changing the power balance is unambiguously beneficial.

So I never 'just say' I do not accept them: I challenge them and read them critically. And I do the same for remainer arguments, whether you believe that or not. I could give example posts where people have blamed things on Brexit, for example, and I have said that I don't think that is right. But as I said very early on in this thread and have repeated many times since, as far as I am concerned the vote is in the past and what we need to be doing is getting the best post-brexit arrangement we can. All the disputes are about what that little word "best" means. And from the government I see no sign they have a hint of agreement of what 'best' means.

So over to you again Keith. I am happy to resume talks as long as you appear to be making a serious attempt to understand other's remarks. And to stress, understanding is not the same as agreeing. But its all up to you whether we do.
