    Happy independence day / day of remembrance

    Why have the Brexiters not got the bunting out? Why are the not marching up and down the street in celebration? Because there's nothing to celebrate?

    Perhaps today should be a day of remembrance. A day when the nation spoke with divided voice, a day when hate was given a platform, a day when the UK lost our international standing, elected a government that sided with party that supported terrorism. Who'd have thunk it this is where we'd be 12 months on.

    To celebrate:

    Brexiter to claim he was ‘just kidding’

    Brexiter to claim he was 'just kidding'
    21-06-17


    A BREXITER who has finally realised it will not turn out well is to claim he was just joking.

    Tom Logan, from Brentford, has decided that saying he was just pretending to back Brexit ‘for a laugh’ is more viable than continuing to insist it is a good idea.

    He said: “With how unbelievably idiotic Brexit now seems, the joke theory is actually more credible.

    “When my friends accuse me of lying, I’ll just get more and more smug about how I had them completely fooled. It’s a twatty way to behave, but not compared to crashing the UK economy.

    “I’ll just keep insisting ‘Brexit Tom’ was a character. If there’s one thing this has taught me it’s that if you keep repeating outrageous lies some gormless bellend will believe you.”

    Friend Nikki Hollis said: “Surely he’s not dumb enough to think we’ve all forgotten him ranting on cluelessly about the EU planning to send the entire population of Turkey here.

    “On the other hand, he did vote for Brexit.”

      Perhaps Brexit hasn't yet fully played out, we have seen since the result just how clueless and useless our career politicians are - from Dave's taking in his ball and resigning because he didn't get the result he wanted to May and her special advisors - all have been found wanting in their response to the peoples mandate.
      The message from the Electorate was in addition to leaving the EU that the current political party choices and incumbents are no longer fit for purpose

      Phase I is underway, we await Phase II
      How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

        But so far, it's going great.

              24th is the day of the result. The decision of madness was made on the 23rd.

                  Fascinating

                  The A50 runs from Warrington to Tunstall.

                  Who would have thought.
