    "Right. **** this. We're ALL up **** creek and we need a paddle. Now, not in three months.

    Fellow Remain voters: Enough already. Yes, we're all pissed off but navel gazing ain't gonna help. Not all 17 million Leave voters can possibly be racist northern pensioners without an O level to their name. Maybe they have a point about this quitting the EU thing? Maybe not. Whatever, we are where we are and no amount a whinging is gonna change that. Allegedly we're the intelligent ones, so get your thinking caps on.

    Leave voters. Well done. Good game. We hear you. Now you need to get stuck in to the aftermath and not just piss off back to Wetherspoons. (Just banter, twats!). And the first person to say they "want their country back" gets deported to ****ing Gibraltar. OK?

    Politicians.

    David. **** off. Shut the door behind you. Now.

    George. You may be a twat but you're our twat. Plus you know the passwords for our Junior Savers account. Get your calculator. Drop the face-like-a-slapped-ass routine. You're on.

    Boris. Sorry mate. That photo of you abseiling by your scrotum over the London Olympics while waving a Union Jack can't ever be un-taken. Plus, you'll never be able to appear on Question Time again without some sturdy Glaswegian nurse asking where the **** her 350 million quid is. Not only will she have a very good point, she'll be wearing a T shirt that shows you gurning in front of that ****ing bus! No captains hat for you I'm afraid.

    Theresa. You're in charge love. Get the biggest shoulder pads you've got. We need Ming The Merciless in drag and you'll scare the **** out of 'em.

    Nicola. Yep. Fair cop. You probably could get us on a technicality, as could London. But we ****ing love shortbread. And oil. And to be honest you're probably the best politician we've got, so we need you on side. Sort your lot out and we promise never to mention that Jimmy Krankie thing again (although it is pretty uncanny) and we'll make you a Dame once we're sorted. Bring Ruth Davidson. She kicks ass.

    Opposition party. We'll need one. Someone take Jeremy and John back to the British Legion Club where you found them. Take Nigel as well. Give back their sandals, buy them a pint, then go to Heathrow and collect David Milliband. **** it. Lets gets Ed Balls as well. He keeps George on his toes. I think he works on the lottery kiosk at Morrisons now?

    Oh. And Mark Carney. Give him a knighthood and tell him to keep that **** coming. We definitely need more of that good ****!

    Everyone set? Right. Hold the Easyjet. We're going to Brussels and this ain't no hen party.

    The power in Europe never more clear. French President goes to Berlin... the Italians going to Berlin.... the president of the council heading to Berlin.

    Merkel and hollande are now aligned on how to carve it up

    While this "extraordinary and opaque" law still applies, maybe those suffering racist abuse should sue the government for engaging in a campaign that actively sought to violate their human rights.

    He was as wishy washy as a Corbyn remain speech.

    I think he was dragged from his bed as he'd said nothing since the vote at all.

    At this point the who knows but I hope there's a sense that nothings done yet and a bit of stability will break out.

    Everyone's waiting across business and others outside won't be but hopefully we can hold out.

    so far not great news

    UK 10-year gilt yields fall below 1% for the first time ever
    UK 10-year gilt yields have fallen below 1% for the first time ever, hitting a record low of 0.995%.

    Meanwhile, 30-year gilts are trading with yields of 1.88%.

    people are headed for government bonds as a safe haven

    RBS and Barclays resume trading after being halted on volatility
    Trading in Royal Bank of Scotland and Barclays shares was halted briefly on volatility after they nose-dived by more than 10% less than two hours into today's trading session.

    had to suspend trading on bank shares after a further nose dive. I think they are back on.

    Boris:

    Boris Johnson: Markets are 'stable'
    Boris Johnson has suggested the worst of the market turbulence may be behind us, saying: "markets are stable".

    The comments come as trading on RBS and Barclays is suspended, the FTSE 100 drops 1% and is nursing a £74bn loss in less than two days of trading and the pound falls to an intraday low of $1.3339.

    Meaningless drivel, isn't it?.
    You can be stable in a really good way or a really bad way or at any point in between. We've stabilised at "Quite ****".
    Boris is a blathering fool.
    But then we all knew that didn't we? No-one would ever side with such a blundering incompetent, would they......?

    hopefully its bottomed out now.

    The EU seem to be aligning on a plan for us.

    1. Nice January deadline for the article 50

    2. 2 years to finalize

    3. out by may 19 which is next eu elections

    They are trying to bring certainty to it as Britain is completely leaderless and cannot.

    Don't get me wrong. I really like him, despite the fact hes a BS. However, I rate Johnson much higher as a leader.
