  1. But the fact that they pointed this out repeatedly was clearly intended to plant the suggestion that it would be spent on the NHS.
  2. ‘In a 52-48 referendum this would be unfinished business by a long way. If the remain campaign win two-thirds to one-third that ends it.’ - Nigel Farage Read more: http://metro.co.uk/2016/06/24/remember-that-time-nigel-farage-said-52-48-votes-should-lead-to-second-referendum-5963900/#ixzz4CZe41oB2
  3. On the basis that our house voted 100% to remain, 4 votes to 0, my wife has declared UDI.
  4. As The Who put it in 1971, "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss".
  5. As any new member must be approved by all member states, this was always going to be the case, but the SNP will try to dismiss it.
  6. Hence the view that this was a protest vote, as much anti-DC as anti-EU.
  7. Technically, the result is only 'advisary'.
  8. Wales voted leave, so it'll probably turn out to be Chris Coleman.
  9. "If we leave the EU, the £350 million saved each day can go to the NHS".
  10. AIRBUS boss : "Britain will suffer," he goes on to warn, before adding: "Of course we will review our UK investment strategy, like everybody else will."
  11. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/business-36561095 Sources within Morgan Stanley say it has already begun the process of moving about 2,000 of its London-based investment banking staff to Dublin or Frankfurt. And it has a taskforce in place.
  12. But he was the catalyst for the whole shebang, and played a prominent role in the Brexit campaign. As the interview continued, "How many people were influenced to vote leave on the basis of that 'mistake' ?"
  13. Susanna Reid to Nigel Farage "So will the £ 350 million go to the NHS as promised ?" Farage replies "It was a mistake to say that."
  14. DC goes.
  15. Bet the Gibraltarians feel shafted.
  16. Comments under that tweet referring to Remain voters as 'traitors' show how the announcement of the result, whichever way it goes, will leave a huge divide in the country.
  17. A perfect example of why FPTP is not democratic, the majority view is suppressed by manipulation of the system.
  18. Got a leaflet through the door today informing me that our road is one of those most likely to vote to leave, which is strange as most of our neighbours are, AFAIK, in the Remain camp, ( including all 4 votes in our house ). As soon as the chap who delivered it had gone back through the front gate I went out, tore it up, and put it in the bin, whistling La Marseillaise, knowing that he was still within earshot.

    There's always that first time that England lose to a team.
  20. And were you surprised to discover this ?
  21. Does anybody actually believe anything either side have put out in the last few weeks ?

    Any chance somebody could email a copy of the rules of football to the referees ? The Croatian GK was easily 2 yards off his line before the Spanish penalty was taken.
  23. Yet presumably you are willing to believe all the guff coming from Farage, BoJo, Gove, and IDS.
  24. I wouldn't have an issue with that, but suspect I am certainly in the minority. I think there is still too much in the British psyche that views the pre WW2 global map as where we belong.
  25. "The authority to make law belongs to the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union."
