I'm sorry you're still struggling with understanding the point made by the original poster, despite having had it explained to you more than once. No wonder you want to try and make this personal instead!

As for attacking you, boo hoo you tart.
The word 'attack' was in inverted commas for a reason. Something else that appears to have gone over your head in this thread.
.

I think you need to read your replies to me, then decide who it was that tried to make things personal. Not that it matters 'snowflake'

Grammar? Is that all you've got?
You appear to trying to make a point, yet write something that makes no sense. So why do you bother?
Irony alert. Have you read your post?

I think you'll find you were the one that made things personal when you claimed that I didn't understand the point being made, despite having explained it in the previous post!

Regardless, can't we move on?

And as for 'snowflake'. rofl

I had a chat with the head of finance for the EMEA region for the company I work for and his team have done lots of modelling around Brexit and in every one that involved our not being in the single market with the associated regulation and costs the UK was better off than we are now.

He is a pro Europe person!
That reads to me like your company has modelled whether the UK as a whole will be better off as a result of Brexit.

That sounds like a pretty significant exercise with a huge number of variables.

Did you mean that your company has modelled whether your company will be better off as a result of Brexit?
The UK as a whole.

Yes it was a big undertaking.
Blimey.

Do you know the reason for the undertaking?

Will they be publishing their findings in any way?

The results are clearly only as good as the assumptions, which does beg the question how many of the assumptions involve regulatory simplifications that may not actually occur in practice!

You suggested that I was in need of an adults help on certain matters. in one of your first replies, I took that as a personal affront, rightly or wrongly.
As for moving on, I have no problem with that at all, snowflake.😎

Clearly gooner, you do not understand the term snowflake other than you've registered it as some sort of insult. Suggest you wind your neck in, and stop embarrassing yourself, sidicks is the last person that could be considered a snowflake.

And I suggest you let siddicks speak for himself.
As far as I'm concerned he and I have moved on, I suggest you follow, and for the record, I'll make my own mind up as to who I consider to be a snowflake, or not. Which incidentally happened to be
an attempt at lightening things.
HTH.

FIF is correct. You are wrong. HTH.

No you didn't plant to ignore my previous comment, you in fact replied then deleted your reply.
However, I think you may have have misconstrued my reply, but hey ho, stuff happens.
HTH.

Fq me.

Are you guys setting out to prove that there are subversive Internet forces out there to kill all conversation on elections etc?

I can't believe I've just seen 3 pages on arguing who does the most genocide on a UK election thread. Followed by childish back and forth my 5yr old would be ashamed of (my 2yr old probably would be tbh).

The UK is my companies largest market outside of the US amounting to over $500m per year, the bigwigs wanted to be prepared if it looked like is would all go pear shaped.

We are continuing to grow at 30-40% quarter on quarter.
