    There seems no room for reason, only absolutes and support for those who can shout loudest.
    Chart or it's all bollocks.

    OwlHoot voted leave. He thinks Farage is the great white hope. Says everything you need to know about OwlHoot

    One step at a time comrade. Before striking the pawns must first be carefully positioned before any quitlings try to escape. First crush their spirt before the killer blow.

    But the sad fact is he obviously doesn't care tuppence whether we leave (and if so how) or stay, only about Bojo and the Tory Party. All this "die in a ditch" talk was a load of bloviating bollox!

    I think he is potty urging an election now, before the UK has left the EU, and he is making the same mistake as Teresa May in her election, by overestimating Tory support.

    Any Brexiter voting Tory instead of the Brexit Party will be rewarding the Tories' abject failure yet again, and (if the Tories win) giving them carte blanche to kick the can down the road for God knows how many more years, which they will be more than happy to do!

    Vote Brexit Party!
    Actually he can't vote on anything now A50 has been triggered. The UK lost all voting rights (except those in the EU Parliament, which are basically irrelevant anyway) on 30th March 2017.

    Mind you, on the positive side, I've always maintained this whole Brexit saga so far has been quite like a secular rerun of the Reformation - When the Act of Supremacy, and similar laws, were first passed in the 1530s, there was widespread dismay and many protests and marches, such as the Pilgrimage of Grace, by die-hard catholics ("Remainers").

    But over the next few years support for catholicism declined markedly and steadily, and apart from a hiccup, when Catholic "Bloody Mary" reigned for a few years, protestantism became so entrenched that restoring catholicism officially in the UK was unthinkable (although catholics were tolerated up to a point).
    And that is why we're in the mess we're in now!

    Mason Boyne for PM!

    Indeed. The EU hasn't found the magic money tree that the UK now has.
