    friday's going to be amazing! i'm going to wake up in my Union Jack jim-jams to the sound of a squadron of Spitfires racing overhead and leaving a trail of hot buttered crumpets behind them

    I'll run to the corner shop past all the british children who are laughing and squealing with excitement as they make a beautiful statue of the queen out of happy wriggling bulldog puppies - with two corgis for her eyebrows!

    bunting flutters everywhere and the man from the betting shop steps into the street - "guess what! England just won the World Cup & The Ashes & The Grand National and here's the best bit - Boris put a bet on it for everyone! you're all MILLIONAIRES!!!"

    the red arrows fly overhead dropping fish and chips as i walk into the corner shop, get my morning paper and go to the counter. "how much please?" i say to the asian lad there. "1 pence, everything in the whole shop now costs just 1p!" he laughs, "leave it on the counter, i'm off back to pakistan - we all are!"

    and he's right! outside in the streets jolly old nigel farage is leading a huge crowd of happy foreigners - turks, poles, romanians, syrians - there's even a few English people with heavy suntans mixed up in there! nigel's playing Rule Britannia on a long pipe, rather like the pipe that takes the gas into your oven, and they're all following and smiling and talking foreign, bless them!

    just then boris flies overhead in a concorde made of Bank of England gold - "don't worry!" he laughs "I've cut out all the bits the French made!" and with that he crashes into the ground at 1200 miles an hour, along with the economy, the country and all the dozy nostalgic foreigner-fearing ****wits who fell for his bulltulip.

      What country would that be?
      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.

        No we're not.

        Turkey fails to meet criteria for visa-free EU travel
        European commission says Turkey has not met conditions of possible deal including border security and human rights issues
        And it only ever applied to Schengen countries, of which we are not one.

              And it's the Remain camp that are guilty of fear mongering.

              I was in Cyprus in 1974 as it happens, not that I remember as I was 3. It was as much to do with Greece trying to take control if I remember correctly.

                Yes millions did die - trying to protect us from having our civil liberties dictated to us by a centralised European power.

                Every person who votes remain today had better not turn up to a cenotaph on 11/11 and say things like lest we forget - because obviously they already fookin have.

                You are sullying the names of every single human being who died in WW2 by trying to make out that a central european power is somehow the best future we can have.

                  Why do you think that all the businesses that currently make millions of pounds in profit in EU trade will just stop buying and selling to each other because we choose a different political ideal?

                  Seriously do you think that BMW Audi and Mercedes + Porsche will all say never mind we had a good run lets shut up shop because England does not want to buy cars? Do you think that the English will want to stop importing beers and spirits?

                  The remain campaign is nonsense. Business always out manurers politics in the end thats why the likes of Starbucks take the piss over their taxes. Nothing will change we will just have a better hand to bargain with because we import more than we sell to the EU.

                    Another rational argument there then. It's amazing people bring up the war as justification for not building bridges with our European neighbours. WW2 should be a cautionary tale about nationalism, not a reason to embrace nationalism at home.
