So am I but that’s democracy . I’m disappointed but I accept it.
You can't not accept it, in reality, can you?
Obviously you're right but what I meant't was as in the sense Remainers couldn't accept the 2016 referendum result .
Who can’t accept it? Brexit voters are the only ones who go on about people not accepting it.

Seems to me Leavers just can't accept the Huge mess their votes caused.

You're surely joking . You're either joking or you haven't been on this board for very long . I've also read a lot of s. hite on other social media sites from whinging Rejoiners for years now .

Give me an example of a remainer not accepting the vote? Everyone accepts it. Not everyone accepts it was a good idea and that we aren’t a lot worse off than we were in the EU.

What I find odd, it's a left v right conversation about brexit. The so called daily mail " left" were in favour of brexit. SWP , Socialist Party , even Jezza. So I think some Daily Mail readers don't understand that ...... I voted to remain, even though I was not a fan of the European Parliament. Put i did actually bother to vote in the European Parliamentary Elections, a lot of people moaned but didn't vote to change it. A lot of people were trying to change it, and the British EMP were trying to make it better. So by pulling out nothing changed....But we are so desperate now , just trying to be part of the groovy gang like Rodney.... I'm pleased Labour are still in charge of london, dealing with 14 years of budget cuts. As a londoner, I'm ashamed the Torys are destroying the best and most inclusive city in the world.

Vote for clean air but you can pay £12.50 to pollute everyone? Yes very sensible.
Bitter eh? Dunno if you’re being deliberately dense but the £12.50 a day is to discourage drivers of older, polluting vehicles from going in to London. He could simply ban all these vehicles but that would lead to an even bigger pushback. Reckon he got it about right and this election result supports that premise.
I know numerous van owners who still use their old vans daily and pay the charge as thee vans are low mileage and they allegedly pollute at the expense of their customers who pay the bill so as for being dense, you should look in the mirror you silly boy.

All those clowns waving EU flags at the proms every year cannot accept Brexit. Best thing that has happened for years. I was away so didn’t vote but wish I had been part of it.

Fair enough and there needs to be that option. The £250 per month may not be sensible long term however. I know someone who scrapped their van for £7k but its not enough for a replacement

So you know a bunch of selfish a-holes who prefer to pollute the air and then rook their customers to pay for it. Nice company you keep but it doesn't change what the charge is intended to do does it?

He’s living in the country and is forced to deal with the sh*t that came from the idiots who voted for it.

Want to tell me a few benefits from it?

Exactly. That’s all you lot have, petty nonsensical arguments about people “not accepting” it. I feel sorry for you.

This is awkward, I also think it’s been a shitshow, you’ve jumped to the conclusion I thought the opposite just because I answered a question you asked :~

If you’ve got your heart set on arguing with a stranger who actually thinks it’s been a success I suggest you check out X/Twitter as there’s plenty of them on there.
