    I'm not angry, other than at the many who think that because they lost a democratic vote that they have a divine right to insult people who voted the other way, and cry foul over something that hasn't happened yet and won't pan out for several years.
    As far as they're concerned, it wasn't democratic, otherwise they'd all shrug and get on with it, and not spit venom and bile towards anyone who doesn't agree with them.

      It's only democratic when they win.

            So 'it's the will of the people' would no longer seem to apply.
            Maybe the sub-gammons of 2 years ago have now aged into fully fledged gammons.

              Is that an EU edict?

                      Indeed I want a pure and true Brexit with no ties to the EU at all.
                      That way any myths about the UK can be dispelled once and for all.
                      Hard Brexit now!
