It would seem that recent opinion poles put BoJo well ahead of comrade Corbyn. Everyday is a school day....

I've read the posts today, and I've seen succinct comments like 'Bilge' and 'Gibberish' and requests for 'evidence' etc.
Easy to say, but what I haven't seen much of are reasoned arguments to support these comments.
If you must use the literal equivalent of shouting down views you dislike then do the rest of us the courtesy of explaining why.

I haven't seen any tangible benefit claimed for Brexit and so I repeatedly ask posters who seem to support Brexit what advantage they think it might bring. The more I ask the less convinced I am that any of the Brexit supporters have any to suggest. It's all waffle about Eurocrats, like Nigel Farage, milking the system. Bilge and gibberish don't seem harsh in the context.

Not so much shouting down views as dismissing simplistic ill-informed comments. Complete waffle (as DBD says). Someone, possibly still in high school, is just parroting the slogans and half-truths they've read on a UKIP/BP website.

My case rests.

Newer (and some long-term) posters to the thread make the same claims other have made before without even bothering to link to their sources, claims often proven to be based on wild claims in certain sections of the media. So, if some of us are a little jaded, sceptical or dismissive of more of the same, oh well.

And the literal equivalent on the internet is trying in all capitals. And what's wrong with asking for evidence of what you claim?

Based on your testimony so far, your case has no foundation, no evidence submitted, and a man who represents himself (insert the rest of the saying here).

Your case likely wouldn't have seen the inside of a court room.

Now let me guess.. is your middle name, for reasons we won't go into, Trump?
I'm guessing here but I suspect that you think this might be 'Fake News'.
Am I right?
