Here'e the latest one I read ... unfortunately in the Canadian media

Even more troubling is the fact that so many Britons now are suffering from voter's remorse, describing their Leave ballots as a protest vote they didn't really believe would "take."

Ok ... so 17 million plus British old farts, ill-educated, yearning for the glories of Empah, wishing to return to some Golden Age, jealous of the young .... and a whole bunch of other shiite ... voted to leave, hoping that they would stay:confused:

And that Golden Age they yearn for: Maybe the 40s and the 50s? Well, apart from a little dust up in the forties, unemployment, collapse of the cotton industry, rationing, and a few other things ... who can forget the joys of hand-me-downs and gussets.

Could be the 30s and 40s ... ok, so there were a few minor economic glitches starting in 29, and appeasing governments bent on surrender to the fascists even without having a war, but nothing serious.

Now, just in case you are concerned that I might deal with every decade back to the Anarchy of the twelfth century, or even the Roman invasion, fear not. We can't go back beyond the 30s 'cause that would be BP .. before penicillin. And nobody ... particularly old folks ... likes that. For they have reached their own Golden Years, where they are kept healthy by pharmaceuticals (indeed, they are a burden on the NHS and tax paying young.)

That makes everything clearer ... The in side won because the "outs" didn't really mean to do what they did. Simple.:D

Well that's the problem with age, I don't remember regretting voting the way I did, yes it was a protest vote, I had thought it was a protest against the EU, things are getting a little vague though, after all, Thursday was more than two days ago.

You know me too well Cashy.

I have to say that David Cameron is something of a wuss....he leaves the country in the lurch, chucks his toys out of the pram because we did not swallow his scary stories.
I don't like George Osborne, but hiis speech this morning was statesman-like.......and it is obvious that he has been doing all he can since Thursday to keep things on an even keel. I did not detect any hint of sourness - or 'I told you it would end in tears' from him.
I still don't like him, but he has gone up a point or two in my estimation.

Correct grammar isn't that difficult to learn if your interested Cashy, they have courses in it at teacher training colleges but only because the kids that start at these places won't have learnt it at Comprehensive school.

It must be easy I've even met a few P.E. teachers that could almost throw together a complete sentence.

Have to agree about Osborne this morning chokes me to say so, but fair play was no bitching.;)

Didn't think you would be, you have your own original style for getting a point across.

Cashy, I think it is the way you tell it that is the original bit.:)

Do you think David Cameron would have had a chance if he'd stood up and admitted he got it wrong, that the electorate had spoken and although surprised at the outcome, as PM, he would do everything he could to make our exit from the EU as swift and painless as possible or has he just burnt all of his bridges.
To me, he hasn't actually resigned, he has handed in his notice. I thought people who resigned, left with immediate effect and were escorted from the building.
