I will be driving a dumper truck around my garden in the next few weeks my language is likely to deteriorate somewhat. :emoticon-0105-wink:
 
I think we need to make a small allowance for SH at the moment as he is struggling to know which part of his fractured party to follow and his hair gel has gone missing. :emoticon-0147-emo:

Sounds like his house build is on a par with Brexit in terms of its planning and implementation. <laugh>
 
The PM says she will go if the hard brexit MPs in the Tory party will support her deal. Time and time again people are asking can they trust her to go? You also have to ask can you trust the Moggs who have said it is a terrible deal created by Satan, yet now say they will vote for it. This really is about a desperate attempt to hold the party together, and the country is of secondary importance.

Today I took my wife's car along to have its two yearly MOT test. Despite my best efforts I cannot get rid of my English accent, so I had three different people asking me about Brexit. These are just ordinary people who have watched the panto going on in the UK. They really cannot believe what they are seeing. It is a blague surely. It will take years for the country to be taken seriously again.

As someone said on the radio think of all the money and time taken on Brexit at the expense of anything else ..

And we still have no idea what will happen !!

It is a good point Mark. We have learnt that because of the way the contract was written, the two remaining ferry companies that are to supply additional sailings are entitled to a further £23 M if the UK does not leave the EU this week. How many of the services that ordinary people rely on are being cut to keep that hopeless minister Grayling in a job, and fork out an additional £23 M.
 
There'll be a lot of fizzing on Friday night - and it won't be Champagne <laugh> Personally I'd live with the deal going through and moving on to the next phase as that's the best outcome in my opinion. I can't honestly say this isn't amusing.

Try to avoid the local halfwits in future.

No, this is about trying to make the best decision for the country after the remainers had cocked up the negotiations. Priority must be to avoid a Marxist Corbyn government, and a denial of the will of the people by not actually leaving the EU. May's deal offers a hobson's choice, poor but some alternatives could be worse.

I cannot say that it keeps me awake at night, but I know plenty who are really very worried. For someone who has followed, been involved in, or these days being an observer, for close on sixty years, I cannot remember a situation like the current one. There have been problems for governments in that time, but now it is different. The government went to the country and can now blame the population for the mess. Previous occasions Suez, Poll tax, etc were down to the government, but now they claim, however falsely that they are just doing what the population wants. This is just dishonest.
