Q: Who won the war?
Brexiter: We did, all by ourselves

Q: When were you born?
Brexiter: 1952, and I personally helped defeat Hitler

Q: What is the problem with the UK today?
Brexiter: The elite

Q: Who will defeat this elite?
Brexiter: Boris, Nigel and Jake
Q: How did you vote?
Brexiter: I voted for Boris! Thank God that commie bastard Corbyn didn't get in. He'd have wrecked the economy!

Q: What is your view of No Deal?
Brexiter: Bring it on! We got through the war didn't we?
Q: What is your view of climate change?
Brexiter: It's a scam to make us pay higher taxes! And Greta Thunberg is being manipulated and should be in school

Q: What is your view of the housing crisis?
Brexiter: Millennials should stop eating avocado toast! When I was a lad...
Q... Go on?
Brexiter: When I was a lad, we WORKED. Saved up. Sacrificed. And got a house no problem! And we never took anything. No handouts for us!

Q: Apart from free healthcare, cheap housing, free education, easy credit, jobs for life, workplace benefits, you mean?
Brexiter: I have no idea what you mean. I paid into the system all my life. I expected nothing. NOW GIVE ME MY WINTER FUEL ALLOWANCE SO I CAN SPEND IT ON A CHEAP HOLIDAY.

Q: How many homes do you own?
Brexiter: I only own homes to provide a service to the public.
Q: And how do you do that?
Brexiter: I own homes, tenants need a home, they pay me for the home.

Q: That doesn't sound like a 'service'. Services are provided by the NHS, the police, the emergency services, teachers, university professors..
Brexiter: Teachers and university professors? Don't get me started! They've never done a proper day's work in their lives!

Q: What do you define as a 'proper day's work'?
Brexiter: Owning homes and providing a service to the public.
Q: Which involves?
Brexiter: Sitting on my arse all day looking at my bank account and kicking out any tenants who complain. Who do these people think they are? I provide a service!
Q: What has happened to your town over the last 40 years?
Brexiter: It's unrecognisable! The state it's in now! Too many migrants, all the EU's fault.

Q: The data I have shows that migrants have gone elsewhere: London and the south-east mostly.
Brexiter: ARE YOU CALLING ME THICK
Q: No, I'm just trying to understand. Would you like investment into your community?
Brexiter: Yes! And good old Boris has promised it!

Q: That's the same Boris who lies whenever his lips move?
Brexiter: Ach, he's a character! And he's on our side!
Q: How do you know?
Brexiter: Because he told us he was! I think he's Churchill come to save us from the evil communist Muslim-loving Europe.

Q: I'm sorry, I can barely keep a straight face...
Brexiter: Are you calling me thick?
Q: No, I'm just trying to understand his appeal. So you agree you want investment. Why didn't you vote Labour, who proposed lots of it?
Brexiter: LABOUR WOULD BANKRUPT THE COUNTRY! Like they did last time! We have to live within our means!
Q: So you want investment, you voted for Boris who never said a thing about it during the campaign, and you think we have to live within our means while supporting No Deal, which will decimate the economy?
Brexiter: Who says it will? 'Experts'? We've had enough of experts.
Q: Every economist worth the name, every business organisation worth the name, every union worth the name, the government itself...

Brexiter: Yeah, well I say we'll be fine. We won you lost get over it. Bloody Remoaners.

And round and round and round we go.
Incidentally: of course I know the above doesn't apply to many or even most Brexiters. It's called satire.

But given so many Brexiters are so fast to call Remainers 'snowflakes', it's funny how they react when their feelings are hurt.

About anything.
