    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't know how many readers of these pages are fans of the 'Daily Mash' humour. I'm a huge fan and I just love today's silliness in this link...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Indeed 'oyster' and there were other examples too, I'm sure 'Bad for morale, you see!' So, a government got into the way of using lies, denials and half-truths to maintain its ability to govern in wartime. As a coalition had been cobbled together at that time, all the major parties were party...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The brainwashing of the British public had started even back then 'flecc' and you'll remember Churchill made the most of his recently acquired adulation as the saviour of the nation and indeed the world. Even as children, we were fed a diet of the likes of 'Commando', a comic-type magazine for...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I'm pretty certain that 'tommie' is already equipped with a bowler, along with various bits of brightly-coloured paraphernalia and I wouldn't be at all surprised if he plays a musical instrument and likes to walk the city streets in midsummer, dressed in his finery and believing that god is on...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Just received a strange package from the North Pole with a message asking me to pass on the contents to 'tommie' as the previous owner has no further need of them? While I'm not sure about the previous owner having no further need of them, they're nevertheless all yours 'tommie' and they'll...

    Now, in the bigger picture over a longer term, such expenses would be peanuts compared to the ongoing financial support given to the occupied territory in the north of Ireland. I would happily dig into my savings and contribute to such a cause! Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Mmm, I'm not sure I understand that part, 'oyster' but I do firmly believe that divesting Great Britain of the NI acquisition of a previous age with different objectives from those important in the 21st century, would be a great service to the mainland British people. Tom

    Unlike good, Christian lodge members, do you mean 'tommie'? Maybe they should take lessons from the likes of IP junior? Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The best way to solve the Irish border problem would be to abolish it. That can be easily achieved by unhooking the 6 counties and returning them to where they rightly belong, withdrawing passport rights from all who live there and strengthening Great Britain's border controls. Great Britain...

    'Brexit' is just around the corner and if it indeed comes about, what you have just described will become the norm for millions of British workers so what we have now should be viewed in this way: You ain't seen nothing yet! Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Nick Pettigrew, former Daily Mash writer, has described that look of Arron Banks that I couldn't precisely put my finger on but clearly I'm not the only one who thinks Banks looks decidedly 'iffy': Tom

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    We never ceded that control so that answer doesn't fit. Our border controls and immigration policy should have been streamlined long before 2016 in order that we could identify those people entering and leaving the country. 'Brexit' had no impact on that area whatsoever and neither does our...

    Well, Winnie-the pooh, having contemplated the future under a tory government and out of the EU…… ….has decided enough is enough, so he has shared his thoughts with his pal, Piglet and they have decided to leave the UK in search of a better future in an EU country…….. Apparently, the straw...

    Blimey, that conjures up some x-rated images in my mind!;) That aside, there are several offerings at various price points from the German and Dutch manufacturers as there remains a large market for what we might refer to as traditionally-styled bicycles. I'm thinking Hercules, Batavus...

    More comedy out of the nonsense that is 'Brexit': …….then, there is this from Raab C Brexit (sic): Although I know the meaning of the word 'sleekit', I wasn't sure it was included in British dictionaries so I checked - sleekit | ˈsliːkɪt adjective 1 Scottish artfully flattering or...

    I love some of the stuff that has landed on my desktop recently: From the irrepressible David Schneider for example: Then, just a hat-trick of tory promises: This one is just so spot-on - something about point, about principle…… This one, I particularly like: Hey-ho! Tom
