Post referendum

A picture from South Sudan

Well now it’s over and we have to pick up the pieces, we voted to leave the EU on a pack of I won’t say lies but distortions and the people who sold us them are back tracking. I heard the theory that the out campaign wanted a tight vote in favor of remain so the Prime Minister would have to resign and Boris would achieve his ambition of taking his place but it didn’t work like that.

The TV shows little old ladies saying “It’ll be like the old days”, really don’t they remember the rationing and strikes, the three day week the lousy cars we used to make. The youngster’s saying “They’ve taken our future away” for heaven’s sake get a grip, you’re too used to being spoon fed do something for yourself. We talk about immigrants coming and taking our jobs, well it’s a good job they do because we have forgotten how to work. There is a lot of good in this country and a lot of bad and I don’t think the referendum aftermath will put it right though the opportunity is there.
