Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!

So Do I.

I have just been reading that old Vince Cable has been running off at the mouth about us oldies 'shafting' the young of this country by our vote to leave the EU.
I think he has got it very wrong...we have shafted nobody.
Those younger folk had a vote to use..if they did not use it for whatever reason, then shame on them and they have to live with the consequences.
I really think it was MY generation that was shafted....by those lying politicians who told the folk of this country that the Common Market(as it was then) was just a trading organisation....and all those who came after and COULD have asked the population what they thought, but didn't because it was a very lucrative gravy train to jump onto when a political career was over.

Those remoaners are the ones who will be least affected by the changes that free movement gives(well apart from low paid cleaners, au pairs and nannies for their children).
As things stand we do not know WHO is here so we have little chance of getting them to go home even if that was on the cards(which it isn't).
I wish they would just get on with it...shut the door, tell them they can whistle for their divorce settlement and let's set sail for a future where we can sterr our own course.
