Pimlico Plumbers have the right idea sorry what do Pimlico plumbers do? Dancing lessons for girls aged 2-16  I think the clue's in the name  They should let the sign REMAIN up there and LEAVE it alone - but I guess it's not good for parents passing by having to explainin to their little ones what 'horlicks' are when asked But like Mourinho at Man U, I think it will be gone soon enough  |

Pimlico Plumbers have the right idea And it’s exactly this sort of thing that I was talking about in regards to respecting both sides - maybe he should concentrate more on providing proper rights to his workers given the not so long court case involving a Pimlico Plumber worker. |

I'm a fellow Leaver like you but I don't see the need to call Remainers Remoaners - better to be respectful in the debate personally. I agree to differ with any individual who voted Leave. After all, it was a democratic choice for us all. I expressed some reasons for preferring us to remain in the EU earlier in this forum. As whether we really leave without a deal is for the future, I shall refrain from further comment on such an outcome. What bothered me even more than the result itself was the campaign, which was basically a ficticious promise for extra NHS funding together with directly or indirectly slamming immigrants. What were people in other countries supposed to feel about that? I was on holiday in Ireland when the referendum happened, although I did cast my postal vote beforehand. I saw and felt the enormous concerns of people locally as how Brexit could hit Ireland. I even gave some thought to moving there and made some initial enquiries. I have not gone through with it, so that among other reasons I have not let Leave voters drive me out of the country. I have as a compromise made 2 resolutions instead. The first is to live as much of my life as possible in boroughs that voted Remain. The second is that I arrange a majority of my bus enthusiast travels to be based in areas that voted Remain. I even have a formula to ensure that any 3-month period is at best neutral and any half-year at least 60% Remain-based. This does of course favour London travels quite a bit, as I always remember that London says Remain.  Just to clarify the definition of a remoaner is somebody who refuses to accept the referendum result, I don't think anybody is going to be offended by that! Obviously you're entitled to your opinion but I don't agree with what you've said. What fictitious promise? I assume you're talking about the message on the bus but it was clearly a suggestion not a promise. You might say it was misleading but no more so than much of the rhetoric from the remain campaign. Slamming immigrants? Frankly that is absolute hyperbole. You're not going to let leave voters drive you out of the country? What makes you think they want to? I'm somewhat aghast at your plan to spend us much time as possible in boroughs that voted remain. I honestly hadn't given much thought to what areas voted for what, obviously it's the overall result that matters. |

Pimlico Plumbers have the right idea Not surprised they would do that, bunch of cowboys who thrive on cheap labour from abroad and pay workers peanuts for excessive profit and charge customers extortionate money. They are only thinking about their pocket instead of welfare. |

Completely agree but then half the protests in Central London are a waste of time such as the one I got stuck in and it was merely people protesting about how bad Cameron was - understandable if it was about nurses pay or people marching regarding tenants associations ignoring residents like with Grenfell but not nosensical issues like that. The only thing I disagree with is when fellow Leavers call Remainers Remoaners - no need for petty name calling as you effectively ruin the debate then. |

That's a bit rich from somebody who said this about Sadiq Khan: It's just pandering to one moron who wants to be the biggest health & safety jobsworth going. |

If your going to quote something I've previously said, at least get it right as to which person I was referring to because it certainly wasn't Kahn - you can have three guesses if you wish lol. There also wasn't a debate going on at the time so it's not the same either. |

The point is that people were mislead with emotions and lies from the leave campaign in the referendum, people then didn't have an idea what brexit would entail hence why some people are calling for a vote on the final deal. |

Quite frankly that is nonsense although there were misleading claims made by both sides but I don't know anybody who voted leave and has changed their mind or thinks they were mislead. |

Not big on this subject but often wonder how the remain camp would feel if they won and the leave camp was the ones complaining and demanding another vote.
Can't help but think they would be told to stop complaining.
To keep this bus related Central London was a total nightmare yesterday! I arrived a few stops short of Tottenham Court Road around 2.30pm and buses had just given up switched off engines and passengers were walking.
