Thread Name: Brexit #2
Subject: RE: Brexit #2
Keeping foreigners out of Britain was the sole objective of Brexit - it was its raison d'ĂȘtre - it had no other purpose
The effects of this objective were felt immediately after the vote was taken; a sharp rise in racist incidents, a steady rise of open displays of racism - culminating in Britain now being put of a war footing to keep refugees fleeing from our wars out


Okay. Jim finally made a statement that makes sense as to why immigration is a component of Brexit - certainly Farage had his eye on excluding a whole group of people we know he has abhored and discriminated against for years when he got behind the vote.

But this doesn't mean that the whole conversation can or should shift over to the topic of immigration. And stop the name calling and insults. I'm tired of the ad hominem attacks that don't further the conversation but do ratchet up the anger.
