Are you really comparing the UK to the Scotchland National Football Team? #LeaveaLightonForScotland one of the funniest Twitter tags I have ever read
The EU will do everything to scupper the deal negotiations. If the UK leaves and is a success after a year or two, six or seven other EU members (at least) will want to follow our lead. The 'Ultra' Bureaucrats at the heart of Euroland who want Ever Closer Union will have a full scale revolt on their hands. That'll teach them to behave like little Napoleons.
@Ken Shabby Greetings from the magnificent Brexit celebrations in London. The atmosphere and euphoria was like a combination of D Day, the Play Off final, and when @ForestHillBilly last found a pound on the pavement. I am now sitting here in Central London at 3am marvelling at my blue UK passport, and wondering who will clean my windscreen in London (without payment) now all those Romanians are going to be kicked out.
HSBC are getting the kicking they deserve for being A) Arch Remainers, and B) Crap. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-51499776 Maybe as well as half their staff (poor buggers) they could fire that git comedian who does their adverts. "We are not an Island..." Erm, yes we are mate. We've got sea all around us (thank God). It's the main reason why this country is still so diverse - and why we're not all speaking German right now. Or "German, German, Japanese, German" as you so wittily put it.
Just had an idea... Our annual humiliation at the Eurovision Song Contest has come around again. Some are saying we should withdraw. I think we should start entering songs that are blatantly anti-EU. Preferably as cutting and sarcastic as we can make them. The more aggressive the better, as long as we don't stray into racism or stuff like that. I bet we would even pick up a few votes from sympathisers
I'm afraid that with one or two exceptions we lefties are better songwriters. Maybe Morrissey would write one.
It's 75 years since VE Day soon. We could have a Wartime Meddley; Hitler has only got one ball / My old man's a dustman (the 2,000 germans version) / and a few others I'll think of later...
