As long as he doesn't tear up the squad too much that will be great. I thought Klopp had already had a breakdown judging from his touchline antics
If the difficult, technical decisions are going to be passed straight to the people politicians should only be paid as #parttime workers. Up next, save NHS costs by making people decide treatments using a phone in vote. And why bother training judges when we can use reality TV shows to decide punishments.
Democracy is not about the masses deciding the laws. Democracy is about the masses deciding their leaders... who then decide the laws.
£30bn in tax rises and spending cuts will be necessary to compensate for the negative effects of voting to leave #thatwentwell
The price this country is going to pay for Cameron silencing the right within his own party and trying to split the racist vote at the last election, is going to prove to be the most epic fail in British political history
For all those Brexiters who've been infesting vox-pops and phone-ins over the weekend mocking the suggestion that the pound would crash: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36636853 FFS, the markets only had one day to react before the weekend. This WEEK will tell us more about whether it will be bad, terrible, disastrous or armageddon.
In all political history, I expect. I can imagine a few decades from now it being known as the "Fool's Referendum" or something and taught as a warning not to use your vote as a protest. Future history timelines will be like: 1829 End of religious voting 1918 Representation of the People Act (Universal suffrage for all men) 1928 Equal Franchise Act (Universal suffrage for all women) 1948 Representation of the People Act (One person, one vote) 1969 Voting age changed from 21 to 18 2016 Referendum on Membership of the EU 2017 Repeal of the Referendum on Membership of the EU (One non-moron, one vote) 2098 Representation of the People Act (Universal suffrage for all artificial people)
Nothing surprising there, you do know that everybody (including exit voters) were expecting a period of instability?
It'll be interesting to see how this works out. If all the things that induced the genuine Leave voters to follow Boris actually fail to materialise, perhaps it may yet end up with them doing the complaining. It's no surprise though. It was always clear that Boris had no interest in anything but gaining power, and would say and do anything to get it.
But don't you think a large proportion of the Leave vote was based on the package of "promises" of all the changes it would make? Almost all of these seem to have been reneged upon already. There isn't any more money for the NHS, trade with the EU will "intensify" according to Boris's latest waffling, and freedom of movement both ways will remain. Really, what's left? We exchange EU bureaucracy for our own - will that really make any practical difference to us? As I said beforehand, the "Take Back Power" slogan was no more than gaining power for him and his cronies, not for the people. Would you trust him with it? Do you think the improvements that you thought you were voting for are still likely prospects? Sorry, a lot of questions there, and it's late. I have to say, even I'm a bit surprised by the speed at which this particular Boris Bike is back-pedalling.

In his first words since accepting the result of the EU referendum on Friday, Mr Johnson wrote that "the only change" would be to free the UK from the EU's "extraordinary and opaque" law, which "will not come in any great rush". 'Single market access' His column said: "I cannot stress too much that Britain is part of Europe, and always will be. "There will still be intense and intensifying European co-operation and partnership in a huge number of fields: the arts, the sciences, the universities, and on improving the environment. "EU citizens living in this country will have their rights fully protected, and the same goes for British citizens living in the EU. "British people will still be able to go and work in the EU; to live; to travel; to study; to buy homes and to settle down. As the German equivalent of the CBI - the BDI - has very sensibly reminded us, there will continue to be free trade, and access to the single market. "The only change - and it will not come in any great rush - is that the UK will extricate itself from the EU's extraordinary and opaque system of legislation: the vast and growing corpus of law enacted by a European Court of Justice from which there can be no appeal." In other developments: George Osborne will issue a statement early on Monday morning in a bid to calm markets after the surprise Brexit vote triggered turmoil on Friday The The pound fell sharply in trading in Asia on Monday, adding to Friday's record one-day decline Prime Minister David Cameron will chair the first meeting of the cabinet since the EU referendum result. It is not a political cabinet and Mr Johnson will not be there The executive of the 1922 Committee of backbench Tory MPs is set to meet to draw up the timetable for the Tory leadership contest German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande will hold talks later in Berlin to discuss the fallout of Brexit Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon says Holyrood could try to block the UK's exit from the EU The House of Commons petitions committee says it is investigating allegations of fraud in connection with a petition calling for a second EU referendum Former Conservative leader and Brexit campaigner Iain Duncan Smith told the BBC the new prime minister should come from the Leave camp Prime Minister David Cameron said on Friday that he would step down as PM by the autumn after losing the vote for Britain to remain within the EU. Mr Johnson, MP for Uxbridge and the leading pro-Brexit campaigner, is among those tipped to succeed him. Article 50 of the Lisbon treaty, which sets a two-year deadline on the UK's formal exit from the EU, has not yet been triggered by the British government. EU foreign ministers have previously urged Britain to start the process soon. Speaking on Sunday, French President Francois Hollande said there was no going back on the UK's decision, adding: "What was once unthinkable has become irreversible." On Saturday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said the EU had "no need to be particularly nasty in any way" in the negotiations with Britain. .... Well done Boris. .. except nobody in Europe like us and have the knives out. There's about 100k jobs in London handling euros that France and German vested interests want. That on its own is irreparable. From here I hope the knock the pounds got today is not a sign of a market crash as the ftse opens... osbourne to speak next.
I see the petition has been attacked as 3.1million now signed. They must all be fake or signed by foreigners apparently.
So far osbourne has spoken... he's not resigning and we are as strong as we can be. So far no pre market firesale... things looking ok so far. More labour shadows resigning... party in disarray. The Mad commie refuses to go. .. Everyone seems to be rationally trying to cool this off in Europe. Merkel telling the more hawkish to shut up by saying there's no rush.
