Here we are in the midst of the most significant and uncertain time in British political history since 'the war', and nobody's talking about it. How very British.

(I'm not talking about it, by the way.)

Well, it's all down to parliament now. How they (mis)manage it will decide what happens next...

I would say that there would be protests if they continue to 'screw it up', but I think British people are averse to 'doing it the French way'.

The fascist socialist will never allow Brexit.

The EU is like the mob, you can quit but you can never leave once you join.

They certainly are (averse) these days, one thing that has struck me is the general apathy of the great British public, especially young people. Back in my day we used to protest about everything. I suppose the difference is that this isn't 'political' in the usual sense of the word, so it's all a bit confusing....

I meant to put an "S" on the word socialist.

Remember, socialism only works if it can be forced on all and once it is in place nothing can oppose it to reverse it.

In that sense, they are fascists. Just ask the Nazi democrat socialists about that.

Speaking of which, why would the UK willingly surrender its sovereignty to a continent that they fought two great wars to be free from?

Baffling really.

Which is it, fool, fascist or socialist?

It cannot be both.

They fought the Hundred Years’ war to be part of the continent but that was a long time ago

At one point they had more than Calais. Half of what is now France was considered part of England. Some call it the Angevin Empire.

Well technically the French territories were ruled by the King of England but weren’t considered part of England.

The EU do not have a say as to whether or not the UK leaves.

You are just making stuff up as usual.
