Interesting tweet thread, mildly amusing. However Ligitas Nefas you can go and play in traffic. "British...engage in an epic episode of national self-harm based largely on delusions of grandeur, nostalgia for days past and barely concealed mistrust of ‘Johnny Foreigner.’". Don't throw generalized insults around when 48% of the voting population did not want this. Frankly its incredibly condescending. So I will say again you smarmy arrogant twit: Go play in traffic, take a long walk off a short plank and generally just p**s off.

Screw Brexit I want a submarine made of cheese

Brexit is like a bad marriage. You know that you shouldn't have even dallied in the first place, and that the commitment was a huge mistake. But you feel that you're too heavily invested now to pull out. The thing is, it's only going to ever get worse and worse the longer you leave addressing the problem, and it's going to cost more and more... Wake up Britain, and divorce Brexit. Otherwise it's only end in tears, indignity, ruin, and humiliation...

My guilty pleasure is reading about Brexit. It makes me feel like we (US) aren't the only country where people are mostly very unhappy with the leadership. Granted, we are still way more screwed than you guys -- I mean, our entire leader is made of Cheeto™ sooooo.....yeah.

Hey, at least your president isn't made of cheetos.....

The E.U. is fundamentally undemocratic. I could give lots of examples why, but I can't be bothered. However the clearest examples are how they've treated the Greeks and the Catalonians, also how they've handled the UK's desire to leave; complete disbelief, then trying to threaten us and then trying to frustrate the process at every turn. I don't think it's wrong or unnatural to want to be ruled by people you vote for and who are part of your community (in the biggest most inclusive way). The people who actually make the rules in the E.U. are not elected by us and do not have our best interests at heart. This is my personal view. I completely respect anyone who has another view... but don't you think that if you hold a vote, in a democracy then the result needs to be respected?

To Tom Brannoc: Building a submarine out of cheese is possible. It will just be a lousy, dysfunctional submarine. You're right that leaving the EU is also possible. Same results as the cheese submarine.

If you could to amass a crew of people who are all lactose intolerant and/or vegan, I see no reason a cheese submarine can't work. Otherwise the crew would literally eat themselves to death.

Some people can't understand they lost the referendum - it was three years ago, get over it. Had Remain won, we wouldn't be calling for another referendum because we were bitter about our loss - the same responsibility lies with you.

No one here in the UStates has any room to laugh. Our orange-headed nutjob head of government lost the popular vote, yet acts like he was appointed by a deity. Yet we're don't nothing to fix the whack-out electoral system that let it happen. (And/or that is easy to fiddle if not outright rig.)

Well, now we know where Trump got his idea of building a Wall out of bricks of Cheese... (Monterey Jack of course, cos he thinks it's Mexican)

HMS NACHO PARTNER?

Is the internet now so puritan that we can't even type S**T anymore?

Yes, a physical cheese submarine we all know won't work in practice is the best thing to compare a 2-year long, intangible political plan. I cannot stand lefties and their awful comparisons. It's like flat-earthers trying to debunk gravity with a comparison of a spinning, water-logged sponge to a gigantic land mass we call Earth.

"based largely on delusions of grandeur, nostalgia for days past and barely concealed mistrust of ‘Johnny Foreigner.’" This is a strawman argument that shows a barely concealed disdain for the voice of the 17,410,742. As a Brexiteer, although unable to vote in 2016, the reason I supported Leave in 2016 was because I support free trade. I still do, and would still support Leave, although I am unable to vote because of my age. We Brexiteers are not all EDL thugs who go around singing 'Two World Wars and One World Cup' and looking for foreigners to beat up; we are sensible, open-minded people who do not wish to be stuck in an ineffective, protectionist, bloc. This article appears to have been written by a bitter 'Remoaner', the British equivalent of a Lost Causer who, quite simply, cannot accept that he lost in 2016 and is now calling for a so-called 'People's Vote' when, in fact, he cannot accept that the vox populi have already defeated him once. Try not to make strawman (cont'd)

The thing that many Brexiters don't seem to understand is that it's not a matter of leaving the big and failed Europe. It's a matter of the UK being one of the main actor in Europe and, as a result, in the world. Instead of that, the UK will become a minor actor in the world. An isolated country surrounded by giants. What will qualified migrants choose in the future? Probably not the bigoted UK... The illegal migrants will probably have an easier time reaching the UK as well, because France won't be there anymore to filter them. So there is absolutely no win-win situation here... For no one. Not the anti-Brexit and especially not the pro-Brexit.
