Are you saying Einstein copied Newtons theory Bruce?..Bugger!
No I knew they would vote to leave the EU.
Even though I didnât.
You should have told the BBC Helen, then it wouldnât have been such a shock for themâŠ
I actually thought we would have voted to stay inâŠ
The liars on the Right/Leave were just more convincing than those on the other side.
And probably better funded by Russia.

The complacency/arrogance of the remainers cost them dearâŠ

Very true. Which was a dumb complacency as it should have been obvious that the leave camp had the easier argument to make. All they had to do was shout about the failings and costs. No need to put detail on what next. The remain camp had to detail what was good whilst defending what was flawed.
But the remain leaders, Cameron & Osborne, were fresh from successfully deploying project fear in the Scottish referendumâŠ
One good reason not to rejoin the Common market is because on my dinner table i donât want frogs legs , surrounded by a ring of onions then, followed but Snails as a desert. All on top of a striped horizontal blue and white table cloth
Alternative is to try and eat Spaghetti with a fork which is impossible or goes cold before even getting a mouthful
Only saving grace is the chance of beings served by some young Buxom German girl leaning over with the suggestion by putting a sausage on your plate
Crafty buggers those EU folks, any stunt to get us UK geezers accept straight Cucumbers 
Not a reg since 2009. More accurate would be to refer to any stunt to get us to believe it is still in force⊠even in 2016. Of course we all knew that when we voted back then.
Back to Farage breaking the rules on party funding. Remember he nicked half a million from EU expenses to spend on UKIP efforts in the UK. No wonder he felt that party funding laws are merely advisory. Crook.
Fact is Helen, those that had their jobs stolen by foreign workers, who were mostly illegal, in Norfolk and the east of England, and the working classes of Yorkshire and Humberside who who never really benefited from being in the EU, in fact they blame the EU for taking away their jobs. You only have to look at the voting demographic to realise who actually thought being in the EU was a good idea.
And there will always be more of the working classes than there are of the money orientated and multi cultural folk of London.
people of
There are millions of working class folk in London.
Yes the EU workers have left.
They have been replaced by those certain people hate even more.
Be careful what you wish for eh?

Most of the workers in London are in the financial sector or the service industries, hardly classed as âWorking Classâ especially if they own properties in London.
Londoners have different attitudes to migration from those up north, having lived with it all of their lives, I didnât see a person of colour until I was 18 years old, and they are still rare in the village.
I donât hate anyone Helen, but I do object to people breaking the law and entering this country illegally, the scale of which is massive, more than figures suggest.
And how can it be described as racism when even the people coming in have no documentation and refuse to say where they are from? Apparently they donât have a race.
I know you really hate research and facts but here is recent job data for London. I make no comment apart from noting there is a wide range of occupations and therefore pay. Oh, and to question your use of the word âmostâ. But interesting, no?

Thank you for sharing the FACTS.
OGF obviously hasnât a clue about London and gets his information from the Daily Mail.
That someone of our generation who says he hadnât seen a non white person until he was 18 beggars belief,
Exactly my point Lincs, mostly financial and service industries.
In ten years time you will have to reduce the admin and financial services, among others, due to the advancing age of Ai.
Mostly blue collar workers or foreign folk will vote to stay in the EU and thatâs how it was at the time.
I donât subscribe to any newspaper Helen and London has been slowly going down the global route for years and has been overcome by a slow insidious creep of foreign ownership and workers, so folks didnât notice.
And I said people of colour were still rare in the village, I had obviously seen black people in books in the geography lessons at school.
George Madgwick , a Reform UK councillor in Portsmouth and leader of the party group on Hampshire County Council has been charged with 35 criminal offences, including 12 counts of rape, sexual assault, assault by penetration, stalking, false imprisonment, and distributing/making indecent images of children.
Labourâs Bridget Phillipsonâhave called on Farage to clarify if and when he or party leadership knew about Madgwickâs arrest or the allegations, and why Madgwick was approved to stand for the party, hold a local leadership role, and work as a Reform staff member.
Itâs one accusation after another, itâs grubby .
Disgusting.

You have forgotten to mention that the Reform Leaders of Suffolk and Leicestershire County Councils have also just been dismissed/resigned over misconduct.
You are actually incorrect over who voted for Remain.
The statistics showed it was higher educated people and university cities who voted against Brexit. The less educated wanted to leave, they were more gullible and believed Farage and Johnsonâs lies.

If you add up the four categories that contain jobs that are finance & services then you get something like 2.3 million jobs. That is of course the highest group (not âmostâ as its something like 40% but a lot).
The thing missing from this data is that in sectors like insurance and finance you will get many very low paid jobs as well as the big pay ones. Same as technical activities and administration. There will be plenty of jobs that are paying in the bottom quartile and that hardly supports your argument that there arenât working class in London.
That says an awful lot. It says that once you get accustomed to living beside different people of different cultures you stop worrying about it. They arenât taking anything away from you or your cutlure. They are adding stuff in. Then you get to know such folk through being neighbours or through work or clubs and you find they are mostly really decent, just like you and your kith & kin.
But as you point out, if you have not been used to such different faces or accents then you go all negative and worried. But fail to take the lesson from people who are very used to many cultures and people. Sad innit?
