    There are now calls for a vote of no confidence in Comrade Corbyn. How come you get everything wrong Yorkie?

    Let's have another referendum as it wasn't a clear enough majority
    Let's have another referendum as it wasn't a clear enough majority

    There are now calls for another referendum <doh>

    When I posted my post about Corbyn there had not been one call for his resignation.....I followed it all night on BBC ...

    of course the calls are starting now.

    All this reminds me of cheap populist mob democracy.... and sadly our cheap populist mob media are feeding it and creating the stories as they go..... a very sad state of affairs.

    I desperately want Comrade Corbyn to stay in power. He was by far the best asset for leave, he remains the best asset for the Tories.

    I'm backing Jeremy:emoticon-0107-sweat

    (End of communication with ignored member... turned that one off again... sad but no real attempt at dialogue... just trolling one-liners)

    Effect of Brexit? Nicky Morgan refuses to rule herself out as next Prime Minister, stating that it would be good for us to have another woman Prime Minister. Sure, yes, but her??

    Nooooooooooo ;)


    But seriously shows you the dangers of narcissism and egotism...

    I really fear for who the Tories choose to be OUR next PM

    Just on Radio 4. Ditto re your later comments. Next Tory PM? Take your pick of the blackshirts.

    Nicky Morgan would not stand a chance, Theresa May has chance or maybe the impressive Ms Leadsom?

    I did not vote for any buffoon or any person - did you have a different ballot paper to me?

    Your other points are all over the place and don't match my post regarding New New Labour and the utter failure of Comrade Corbyn to seize any opportunity...that is what I find amusing that New New Labour had a massive opportunity and blew it...but I will try to answer some of the points.

    Markets go up and down all of the time - I actively monitor my pension accounts all of the time and over the past 15 months there has been huge swings in most of them (depending on what investment plan they are in), this morning was just another - I am sure that when I check at the start of July there will be some that look quite bad. But investing and particularly pensions are long term and as long as the overall trend is up, then your investment is quite safe.

    I just looked at the FTSE is down 4.5% on the day, it will not take years to recover - most of this is because the coin eyed spivs in the city saw the opportunity to do some shorting and make some coin before the month end, they will have to square their positions soon and there will be a recovery - maybe not fully, but as I said that is the nature of the beast. Alternative is to stick it under the mattress.

    That is great news - I always supported their independence as it match my desire for independence from the EU. It also means we can restart the Scottish Independence thread up again

    1) If you continue to make sneaky Comrade remarks you will invite a similar riposte from other posters. It is all so facile playground baiting too

    2) My fund has shrunk by 8% so far today.... and that cuts out the interest gained... which is my pension... so zero income. it will happen to you when you retire...

    3) British Pound to euro exchange rate today -5% at 1.24, lowest at 1.2018.
    • Euro to pound exchange rate: 0.8065 best at 0.8321
    • Pound to dollar exchange rate today -7.77% at 1.3720, lowest at 1.3218
    Big fall......

    4) My missus looks under the mattress

    No, the communists are Cologne's friends.

    Did I miss the announcement on UK citizens being banned from visiting Europe?

    desperate stuff, no wonder the British public rejected remain's scare stories.

    This is sounding good, saving all that cash subsidising Brussels and Scotland.

    Oh come on Yorkie, you are getting desperate now...there are many countries that just love the British tourist £. Tunisia is on it's uppers without British visitors, Egypt is desperate to get us back and Turkey is taking a massive whack this summer.
    Actually when you think about it, it's Scotland that want to leave the Union and would really appreciate my supporting their independence - I would be like a reverse William Wallce

    Dutch far-right MP Geert Wilders, who is leading the opinion polls, said if he is elected prime minister in March he will force a vote.

    Naturally he said "We want to be in charge of our own country, our own money, our own borders and our own immigration policy"

    I've heard this before somewhere?

    "Why do the English like self mutilation and do the Scots have a better education system?" The question asked by my French next door neighbour this morning.
