Now that 'we've got our country back'....

[Uh_huh_him]

We still have a Conservative majority government, elected on a manifesto. I don't think any of that changes.

Really?? I think you will find quite a lot of that is about to change...
A new leadership and manifesto is being worked through right now.
What comes out of that process will be very different from what the electorate voted for.

 

[BadFish]

Yup .......and take the vote away from women....chuck in a bit of slavery....backward thinking, that is the way forward.

Anyone remember the old story about the customer who couldn't understand how to work her computer and the sales assistant telling her to pack it back in the box and return it as she was too stupid to have one....? Now I know how the sales assistant felt.

Pour money into the navy and take control of the seven seas just like last time we rules the world.

So the conservatives mess the country up and then manage to blame it on having their hands tied by the EU. I hate them but they are clever

Not that clever. What are they going to blame everything on, now?

Same goes for the Daily Mail.

They'll find something, history shows bigots will always have a scapegoat

....this 'victory for ordinary people' should mean:

- a fairer distribution of the wealth owned by the top 1%;
- a properly-funded NHS;
- more affordable housing;
- renationalisation of those privatised industries which are now foreign-owned.
- an end to the privatisation and contracting-out of remaining public services;
- greatly improved employment rights for workers;
- slashing bureaucracy in education;
- higher wages for low-paid workers.
- an end to austerity.

I can't wait!

I agree with all your points however none of them are likely t come to fruition with a Tory government, for me now we have left Europe can we relocate the country to some place warmer

It's not like it was a major promise of theirs or anything.

It wasn't a Farage promise. He was not part of the "official" brexit campaign. He has every right to say it ws a mistake and it was not his mistake.

I assume this thread is trolling

That way he can take credit for the victory, and boy has he done that, but still distance himself from the campaign "mistakes".

As said once again Farage plays a blinder, it can't always be luck.

How naive! - a wish list we can all agree with but which little ole england (we wont be the UK much longer) will be not able to deliver on its own.

He ran a separate campaign. You can't argue the facts.

I'm not and now I'm beginning to see why.

Assuming he doesn't get squeezed out by Boris and his cabal, I'm beginning to think Farage has the greatest political mind of the 21st century.

Od dear, a lot of my fellow NSCers didn't appreciate my irony

If only we didn't need £250 billion to bail out the financial crisis we just caused then we could have had a go at some of those ......

For a man who can resign and unresign, then concede and unconcede, and then appear on his first TV interview this morning and deny a Brexit claim the tailcoats of which he has been riding on - and get away with it - he is living a charmed life. For how long I wonder?

Don't forget he survived that plane crash too. He can't resign he can't even die!

We could make your life better. But we won't.
We can make someone else's life worse, and let you watch, though.
Someone who sounds, or looks, or prays differently.
Would that be good enough?

Apparently the answer is 'Yes. By all means. Do carry on.'

He's not that brilliant, marrying a German when you want less integration in Europe is not forward thinking.

That's despite NSC polls showing our posters to be more intelligent than the majority of voters!

(And I can't find any other crumb of comfort today, except to know that my home town voted nearly 70% remain.)
