No idea just as I have no idea if being out of the EU will be financially good for the UK or not, nobody does it's just a gamble. Interesting 'cartoon' doing the rounds just now is this one ..

Suze the Scots will tell you that they propped up England under Tory governments with their oil money and are fed up carrying the burden. It all depends how you do the sums.

I was captivated with the RAdio 5 and parliamentary discussions. Brilliant theatrics also. I think part of the problem is that we are an island. We wouldn't expect to close hospitals, ambulance stations, GP surgeries, high street shops, police and Fire stations and schools, job centres, mental health support , OAP groups on the isle of wight and then invite everyone on the planet except non Europeans to come visit and then wonder it dissolves into the sea like the lost world of Atlantis.

Bring back Bobby Ewing and build a bridge to Norway I say ! (or Iceland as they will win the cup with players called Ragnar! ).

I voted out. It is getting on my nerves a bit all the doom and gloom. I just want to shout, you need to give these changes time to settle and for plans to be in place. Yes it's scary but (as the FTSE100 has shown), there will be a recovery. It might not be quick but it's hardly the doom n gloom that Osborne predicted.
I actually don't care too much for Bojo and no way Farage. Gove? Maybe...
I don't like any Tory really lol...but I can't stand Corbyn either (and I'm labour lol).
But. Let's just keep calm and wait and see what happens. Change is always scary.
But at least it's our decisions on our country and not Brussels telling us what to do.
And these 'we want a 2nd referendum'...suck it up and accept the people's decision. Unless we decide to do a best of 3? Lol. Toodle pips everyone...ill be back xx

Hey Rach. Good to see you back here!
Totally agree with you. x

!
Rach where have you been?

It takes political carnage to get you to post?

And I agree with everyone that says we can't have the vote again. That idea is nuts.
