He should be buried by one.

As they tend to be about what might happen after Jan 1st 2021, very few, if any. On the other hand GM's historical record is quite poor, so at the moment it is probably neck and neck.

Who has the better prediction record, you or GM ?

So which are you, Cpl Jones or Pvt Godfrey ?

British yes, English yes, Lancastrian yes, Hampshire born yes, Sotonian yes, Old Edwardian yes, Leaver never. 😉

So why are both sides so hung up over it ?

So are we.

So we move on to Jan 6th and the joint session to count and officially register the Electoral College votes, where, no doubt, some Republicans will try to object to certain states' collegiate votes - pointless as the Democrats are in the majority in the lower House and both Houses must separately agree to overturn or reject a certification. ( Unless something really weird happens during Monday's EC voting. That is, something SO weird that it would make Scally's postings seem entirely logical and accurate ).

So when Cameron said "Out means out", that the referendum result would be respected, and that there would not be a 'second chance' vote, what did he actually mean ?

You have answered your own question. 🙂

'Out means out" - David Cameron 2015. "Out means out" - Jean-Claude Juncker 2016.

Why didn't we go as soon as the Cameron Government said they would honour the referendum result ? Or at least after May was elected to replace him ?

I am saying that people who voted Remain didn't vote for 'no deal' in the referendum, as no doubt some Leavers did. Also I suspect that even those Remainers that voted Tory in the GE expected a deal to be made.

We voted to leave, so why didn't we just go ? If you give up membership of a club, you can't hang around asking for selected benefits to still be available to you.

Well at least they didn't vote for the current shit show.

Why are the mirror universe uniforms in Disco so much sexier than those in the Prime ?

Who would have thought that the 'oven ready deal' was 'no deal' ?

No self respecting comb would want to be near that thatch. It's only surpassed by the shredded wheat on Trump's bonce.

I don't think that's a concession, it's an appeal to the Supreme Court to find in favour of the Texas lawsuit because Joe Biden's son is subject to a tax investigation.

Politicians have very short memories, and these days little conscience.

Not the only ones ; https://www.theneweuropean.co.uk/brexit-news/parliament-has-been-flying-the-union-flag-upside-down-70954 The Houses of Parliament have been flying the union flag upside down, it has been claimed. Jacob Rees-Mogg described the reports as "deeply troubling" after Conservative MP Robert Courts suggested that it had been that way for "some time". He said: "I wouldn't want to be seen to be too much of a stickler for these things, but... the Union Jack above Portcullis House has been flying upside down for some time now. "This could be a mistake. I doubt that the building has surrendered to anybody, but could we have the debate in government time as to whether in fact the building is in distress or whether its the MPs within it that are in distress?" Leader of the House, Rees-Mogg, said "This is a deeply troubling matter that the Union Jack should be flying upside down."

Wes lives by a simple Orwellian creed; UK good EU bad.

We left on 31st Jan 2020. The transition period ends on 31st December 2020. Not like you to get that wrong. 😉
