So... why are they fucking smirking?
That's not the reaction to someone that's a dangerous populist that can not only talk labour leaning London to vote him in (twice) and talk the uk into voting for exit despite everyone with a degree in economics saying this will be terrible.
Faced with a man that has that kind of populist power, you fucking smirk?
Really?
Bollocks.

his job isnt appealing to the brexit voting masses now,
It's working with some incredibly bright people on a problem of enormous complexity and global importance, behind closed doors mostly. Many of these people will not be sympathetic to his cause, some will be outright hostile. His clowning for the cameras will be irrelevant to them except as a source of mild amusement - hence the smirk

One diplomat smirked.
One.
"talk the uk into voting for exit despite everyone with a degree in economics saying this will be terrible."
I've lurked on here for quite a while, i remember you pretty much dismissing the economical impact of the Brexit vote and dismissing the views of 'experts' (experts other than yourself, of course), so i find that comment a bit strange, especially when one of your comments pretty much stated that the economy doesn't matter anymore once we've left Europe (i've looked through your comments but it was a couple of weeks back, feel free to go and delete it, if you'd like).
You seem to be pulling a flip-flop for the sake of winning an internet 'argument', which would suggest your principles are quite weak, you're now talking about people with degrees in economics, which you quite happily devalued the opinions of previously.
I think 'populist power' is also pushing it, after what he's done lately i don't think he's as popular as he was at all.
Going back to the original point - One person smirked; another called him a liar, many stated he's not the right person for the job and don't agree with him being appointed.
If he plays the fool he'll soon have to get himself together, because it's clear no one will be falling for it.

Heh :)
You've been searching my posts? Cute.

That was the opinion of financial experts. No disagreement there. Statement of fact. Those were the opinions.
Did you see my post about not giving a flying fuck about what this does to the city trading based economy. I dismissed them. I didn't care.
Now... Take your hands of your self congratulatory hardon before the vinegar strokes because I haven't flip flopped on a cunting thing.
The cunts in the city gambling with other peoples money can fucking burn.

Wow.
You got angry.
Pure internet.
I'm sure it's easy running the country and making important decisions from the comfort of your office chair, it's easy when there are no consequences.
I once did quite well on Championship Manager and thought that made me qualified to manage the German football team.
Also - 'i didn't care'? That's neither here nor there in terms of impact.

You're obviously always right, and quite defensive when you're questioned.

the city trading based economy on which all our jobs depend you mean?
The tories are in charge of clearing up all this mess ffs. Protecting the City will be their number one priority

Unless you work as a hermit on a remote Scottish outcrop, it does
Even if you work for the public sector your job is inextricably linked to what goes on in those offices in London. That's just the nature of it all

Fucking hell, this is all pathetically desperate, isn't it?
It's easier to point the finger and sit making judgements which have no repercussions whatsoever, than actually take responsibility for them.
Ignores the person above me, 'mokum', ignores your comment and yet questions me...anyone would think he's insecure and picks on people he thinks he can 'win' against.
SAD.
