I've just logged back into the forum after a few days respite, cancelling the ignore button after it looked like sanity had returned, only to see that the man-child is still ranting on to get attention.
Hint: Criticising/moaning about a political decision is perfectly acceptable and normal, otherwise we would all have nothing bad to say about the way this Conservative government is running the country until the next election, and should just live with the mess they are making in the meantime. Criticising or praising Brexit on an internet forum will have zero impact upon its success ir failure, but is a reasonable way to share one's opinions. One interesting thing I get from such discussions is that I have seen it is far, far easier to list/itemise the many problems caused by Brexit than it is to list the very few benefits, other than the mythical "taking back control", and that people who voted for Brexit get very unhappy and throw a tantrum when this is highlighted.
As far as I can see not many people, Leave or Remain are actually doing anything to make Brexit a success or failure, but are just getting on with their working and private lives. You criticise someone who is actually doing something to help make Brexit as successful in their field as their specific role can, but you in your childlike way call mentioning that virtue signalling. Can you actually explain, and I promise not to call it virtue signalling, what you are currently doing that you were not doing before Brexit to make it a success?cause your arrogant enough to think, that only you are doing anything to mitigate the effects of brexit on peoples lives

Careful, that is almost sounding like virtue signalling. Again can you give us some hints as to how this respect manifests itself? Do they vote you colleague of the month via Zoom (I don't know whether you work in an office environment or are still WFH) or have a whip round to buy you Welsh cakes?Im not looking for respect from some internet nomad…..i get enough from work colleagues on a day to day basis.
