It's a direct quote. And here's him saying it.

"I hadn't realised quite how important picking a goalkeeper was"
The annoying thing is that it was blindingly obvious from outset that people like these were going to be in charge. Even if you could make a sensible, rational case for Brexit, no-one in their right mind should have voted for it because these stupid, ignorant people were going to be implementing it.
If there's one thing that characterises the modern Tory politician, it's that they are immensely lazy. OK, you don't know everything about your ministerial brief before you take up the position but you should bloody well put in the work early on to learn.
Combine that with the fact that these people are personally insulated from the consequences of their actions by wealth and privilege - the people driving us off the cliff have their parachutes strapped on and ready to go -and you have a recipe for absolute disaster. All as predicted endlessly on this very thread before the referendum, so let's hear no more about "hindsight".
Cunts.
I was misled!
A nasty tory mp lied to me

That's just not true. This thread wasn't opened until after the referendum...
Cunts is a very highly accurate assessment of the closed thread iirc.Ah, fair enough... I like a stickler for accuracy...
In that case, please read it as "all as predicted endlessly on this very forum before the referendum"
I believe "Cunts." to be an accurate statement though.
