> I am looking forward to the English getting the same treatment

What a truly vile statement, unworthy of HN.

Roughly half the English population (including myself) voted to remain. We are not gloating, but working hard to ensure cooperation with the EU continues.....

..... and no doubt, preparing for the next referendum to return to the EU in 10 years time (after all, a second independence referendum is now on the cards for Scotland, the precedent has been set).

Perhaps. I rephrased it to be reflective that I would like the English officials to be treated like trash because, if you actually read the article, the treatment is inhumane.

I have a lot of gripe with the English for how they treat other people, perhaps if they get a taste of their own medicine they may snap back to reality and forget the greatness that was their empire (obviously /s).

biggest issue in the UK unlike many other EU countries is how deeply polarized their media is. Very difficult to reason and bring the camps together which means the only way to get better is if it first gets worse. A complete shame considering the UK joined the EU because it was the sick man of Europe back in the 70ies and it was welcomed especially by other partners who felt it provided a much needed liberal balance to the power duality of France & Germany. We're all at a loss that they left IMO.

As for vindication the people certainly deserve not what's coming and happening to them, the true villains sit in the news rooms pumping out racist and dividing shit calling itself "free media" but the truth is it's run by a bunch of oligarchs. Eat the rich and bring guillotines to these places so that the poor and brainwashed people who've been fed on a steady diet of divisive garbage and are the real victims in this sham won't get hurt. It's a really easy trolley problem this one. Sadly history shows that the trolley company is the one that tends to win.

I agree. That comment is a sad but common result of people who seek vengeance under the facade of justice.
