Despite mind-reading attempts as to what people should have or wanted to vote for, all those people gave a majority for the UK to leave the EU. Remoaners, remainiacs etc - time to swing behind the leaving process and unify the country.
Serious question, do you honestly think that people who voted against something which has split this country are really going to support something where the government is telling them that jobs will go, we will all be poorer (to whatever degree) and is leading to us, a first world country, having to start stockpiling medicines and the army taking to the streets? A call for unity might go better if you didn't start it by insulting the people you want to unite behind you?
Yeah that caught my eye as well....

I'm flattered that you put me in that bracket, Reg. : )
Probably, yes. But a move to Scotland (where my other half is from) at some point has moved up the agenda, certainly. I really don't like what this country (by which I mean England) has become, and feel less at home here than I did. For me, that's very sad.
I feel very similar, I am a proud Englishman but I am far from proud at what my country has become in the last 5 years, we don't have many options really but I do really hope that Scotland and NI bugger off at the first opportunity if they choose to. BTW my mate moved from Witney to the Scottish Borders a few years back, best thing he ever did, massive house, lovely countryside he's loving it, although amusingly his eldest who was bought up in Oxon until they moved has a very English accent whilst his Youngest bought up in Scotland is very broad Scottish!

I'm 63 and a retired stock broker. Made a fortune in the 80's and now I live in the country, where I keep the walkers off my land. I love hunting, STFC and baiting commie twats. I feel like I'm on blind date.

I see that Fiona Onasanya (Lab Peterborough) has finally been found guilty of perverting the course of justice.
She's a stupid woman (to coin a phrase) but she is also just a single MP who no more reflects the fitness of the labour party to run the country than a Tory caught shagging a rent boy would for the current government.
The good news is that I'm sure that the Tories will disdain from trying to create any tacky political capital out of this.

No I'm not, I started my working life in a union run factory in Swindon and was a born and raised commie. I paid my union sub and when the time came for them to represent me they hung me out to dry. I tried to cancel my payment and was told it was a closed shop. The same rep who let me down said I'd be a scab and sent to Coventry if I caused any trouble. That was my last day as a commie, I enroled on a degree course in London, stayed at my Grans and worked my arse of in the city. During those years my only connect to Swindon was my STFC season ticket. Since those days I've never voted communist Labour or been a union member.

He should have just called her a stupid cunt, that changes it from a sexist comment to a factual one.

If nothing else I did not know that we are not allowed to use parliamentary footage for comedy purposes, you learn something new everyday.

Watching BBC Parliament is certainly funnier than that.
