I had to chuckle at the protest voters on the TV saying they voted to leave because "it couldn't get any worse". I think you'll find it ****ing well can.
Maybe we should have listened to Enoch Powell all them years ago. He warned it was all heading towards this and was simply dismissed as a racist. It would appear he knew this country better than most
There's comedy gold to be had on both sides I feel- doesn't take much digging. Saw a protesting 19 year old (IN) lass this morning outside the HP called Chloe tell a reporter that one of the 3 best things about the EU was the NHS.... oh my life...
Damn I've been bleeding money these last few days. Should have put 50 grand on brexit, would have hedged me nicely.
Well according to your Brexit pole above over 57% of your lot are in that category, like they say who needs enemies when they have friends like you mate.
It's not the people. It's the media. They could do SO much more to balance this out. Like the fact the EU's single market was more beneficial to its' smaller members and that it was a clear hindrance to trading in the Free Market, with Far East, LATAM and Africa. We should demand a "positive Britain" day where every journalist, every media outlet, pulls a positive on leaving the EU. It cannot feasibly be such a disaster. For crying out loud, we had a summit with Merkel, Hollande.....and some idiot from Italy. Since when did Italy have an opinion? Typical - when it's negative against the UK, there they are, standing beside a German. I'd rather stayed in, for personal, immediate reasons and stability. But by leaving I got an immediate pay rise of around £3-4k a year due to the exchange rate (US HQ), and I think it's possible the next generation could even have a better time of things.
I think we should have an official holiday on St Georges day. It will help galvanise the nation behind the flag.
I think you'd need to think seriously about what kind of people would go down the pub on a St George's Day bank holiday, and what they'd get up to on their way home. The flag of St George stands in this country for football (sometimes) and racism. It's unfortunate but a fact.
I was about to write that the people at the top seem surprised that racism is so rife. But this isn't quite true - they may well SEEM surprised, but they know what they're doing. BoJo the bozo, Gove and IDS knew that bringing Farage in would cement the EDL vote. Therein lies the problem - political vote grabbing is pandering, in some ways, to even racists within the country. How's that right? How are we saying "yep, we've got the racist vote sewn up, good job team." Yet that's what they knowingly do. It's like benefits - they could very easily just swap cash benefits for supermarket/Amazon vouchers which cannot then be used to buy alcohol, ***s, lottery tickets and drugs. But they won't, because of votes.
Yeah they may get up to some bad behavior and usually get condemned for it but at least they don't organise themselves into grooming gangs in many cities and towns across the UK and beat, sexually abuse and rape young girls and then have the authorities covering up for them because, hey - they are only young white or Sikh girls - so who cares? It would be too much effort to actually do something for them when it mattered.
Both racist thugs and 'muslim' *****phile gangs need to be arrested, tried and imprisoned. Due process exists for both. But vigilante action and abuse of foreigners and ethnic minorities, who have done nothing wrong, is on the rise in our cities, and that has to stop right now. If a British guy visiting Thailand gets beaten up in the street because of the sex tourists who go there for underage girls, you'd expect the people who committed that assault to face the law wouldn't you? Not least because that British guy bears no responsibility whatsoever for the actions of criminals who come from the same country or have the same skin colour as him.
