That sums up my position as well, it would have been a damn sight easier to stay in the EU. But a majority voted to leave and I just have to suck it up.

Except they don't moan about having lost. The sad irony is that brexiters spend most of their time moaning about the fact that remainers moan. This 'moaning' on the part of remainers generally consists of a proven argument that brexiters refuse to admit exists even although their own fearless leaders have acknowledged. it

Even if someone has a valid point about the governments negotiating position or lack of it. A moaner is not somebody who wants there to be as less disruption as possible.

Its a term which is being used to shut down legitimate concerns and it should not be used by politicians.

Voicing legitimate concerns is not moaning. Surely we all have those, leave or remain?

Moaning is endlessly repeating that the referendum should be all but ignored for some reason or other.

If this forum is anything to go by, far from being shut down, remainers never shut up.

Exactly - the name calling is childish.
What is important is certain companies are heading for bankruptcy. Capita PLC, today's share price dropped like a stone to £4.81 & it still seems to be falling - 2 weeks ago, it was £6 & 6 months ago, over £10.
These are the sort of firms that will be hit hard by Brexit - if you have shares in them, I suggest you get what you can now - before trading is suspended.

I never use it. I use Remnant.

I have never said that.

Also I think people don't want the country to be short changed. I have concerns that may happen.

Awwww but some of you promised.

I think the correct term for that is a Bracist not Brexiteer

lol, Granny just nailed you.

Do you have a preference?

Nah. It's all a bit childish for me, personally.

Ah yes, the company also known as Crapita who've been caught out and fined so many times.

Eurosceptics have had denigrating labels slapped on them for years.

"Racist"
"Xenophobes"
"Little Englanders"
"Deluded"
"Thick"
"Uneducated"
"Self harmers"
"Bigots"

The list is endless. Now they are being asked to "respect" the self-same fanatics that have been heaping endless vitriol on them since the result came in?

I voted remain, I accept the result and I accept that most leavers voted with valid concerns in mind and for what they saw as the best interests of the country.

The "remoaners", as opposed to millions of remainers who have accepted the democratic result and moved on, are reaping what they have sown.

Respect is a two way street.

It isn't an insult. Just a combination of remainer and moaner. Just as Britain and exit is combined to Brexit. If you wanted to remain, and you have been moaning a lot about the result, you are a Remoaner. Just a short hand description of what you are.

'Remoaner' is a perjorative term in its only given definition. Perjorative terms are derogatory. Or an insult, if you prefer.

I quite like it as it avoids wasting time on pointless arguments. If someone starts banging on about remoaners, SJWs, snowflakes, etc. it's a good indication that it's probably better to walk away and let them rant at someone else. And they always do.

As soon as someone says they are concerned that the country will be worse off out of the EU they are labelled a Remoaner and told to respect the will of the people, instead of being told why the country will be better off after Brexit. It's a textbook straw man, because it invents an imaginary character against whom to argue rather than arguing against the real concerns of real people.

Unfortunately not all the remainers have your attitude. If they did then whoever first said the word would never have said it so the only people to blame are the remo.... I mean hard core remainers.

Great post. I suspect that you and I would find that most of the 'extreme wing' of the Remoaners, who undoubtedly don't represent the pragmatic great majority of those who voted Remain, are actually people who don't cope well with any significant change in their real lives.
They have somehow translated the referendum result into a personal slight and, by its very nature of being on-going change, feel all the more anxious.
At this stage it doesn't matter how many positive aspects or opportunities you put in front of them, they are stuck in a version of chanting "Four legs good, two legs bad!".
The only thing we can do is let time take us the other side of this, somehow the country will find a new route and it's up to all of us to make it work. Perhaps I should say most of us make it work, as usual we'll just have to drag the semi-pro malcontents with us.
It's the way of the world.

Ah the real concerns of real people, you mean the real concerns expressed for years by real people and ignored by the main political parties. That's why the remain side lost, because it's protagonists weren't listening.

Somehow listening to the moans of those who at best turned a deaf ear to those real concerns and at worst insulted those real people with the usual list of racist/etc is not high on my agenda.

Don't like the term remoaner, then stop moaning then.

I do of course realise there most people who voted remain haven't bean moaning, that's why I wouldn't use it for anyone but moaners, if I used the term at all.

...and us leaving the EU will make us LESS attractive to big business. Expect more job loses and more companies moving to Europe if/when we leave.

You missed out "Old and sure to die soon".

And "knuckle draggers"... at scraping 5ft tall I could just be one if my arms weren't also short.

Wasn't it "Eurosceptic" the go to for those who couldn;t accept the previous referendum.... it's not even in the same ball park.
