I liked that, pretty damn good rant. If he'd have put his face 2 inches from mine I would have sneezed right into his, possibly muttering something along the lines off 'sorry...back...holiday...West Africa...slight cold...'“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
