The chickens have come home to roost for him a result of blaming the EU for everything though now that he's defending it with every ounce of his being. politics is a funny old game.

Have to say that made me laugh...almost as much as the MP the other day refusing to get on the Bus due to the slogans on it. Sleepers the pair of them triggered to 'jump' at given points closer to the end of the campaigning in an attempt to sway votes...honestly who falls for this shyte!?

More b/s from brexit. (from facebook) So this flyer is coming through doors from the Brexit campaign. An intrepid scientist called Nick Roesen decided to look into this claim. The Rio-Antirrio Bridge cost 630m Euros and is 47% funded by a loan from the European Investment Bank (source: The Economist). The same bank is funding: This is all part of £16bn of investment in British projects over the last 3 years (Crossrail, Manchester Metrolink etc.) (source: gov.uk, Wikipedia). Potholes are a problem but not because of the EU. That is the UK and local government's remit. It's not helping them persuade me if they are going to carry on with these half truths. The other half came from the Greeks themselves, and that was in 2002 so they weren't as skint. Not a great bit of propaganda. What does annoy me is that the lefty remainers only like facts supporting their cause. Any linking immigration to lower wages are just ignored.

Do you know what... I chuckled to myself this morning as I heard that "news" and thought exactly the same. Baroness Warsi was no more going to vote for Brexit than Gusset is/was. And he expects us to treat him with respect.... LOL

TTIP scares the s*** out of me. Lobbyists influencing the EU commission don't give a feck about workers rights. Greece has been shafted right up the jacksie, nationalism will rise even more if we stay...

It doesn't sound much like I'm going to need to worry about what sort of headwear it is!
