Farage walks into a pub - "I'll have a pint please"
The barman pulls him a pint then throws it in his face.
"What the fu..... what was that far ?" asks Farage.
Barman replies " you asked for something seemingly simple but did not lay out the method of delivery"
"Oh I see, I get it" says Farage "I'll have a pint IN A GLASS please"
" Sorry" says the barman " you can't ask again"
"Why not? " asks Farage.
" Democracy" says the barman.

I think you are getting me and the rest of the populace confused with the fools in Westminster when you use you're! If you listen to the media you would think the country is in turmoil as all they talk about is Brexit politics. But in reality the vast majority, in fact probably 99.99%, of the country are just getting on with their lives , doing their jobs , making money, etc. I can reasure you we as a country are far from a basket case.

Fair point, but I’m not confused and I don’t mean you personally. I mean you’re political system and your constitution.
I’ve every sympathy for the ordinary Joe in Britain wether you voted out or in. But you say you have parliamentary democracy and want them to execute the will of the people.
What the will of the people is, is far from clear. You voted out but even that majority are divided about how you want out but you want what you suspect is a pro Remain parliament to agree on a way out, when it’s obvious that they are more concerned about staying in power, fending of rivals within their own parties and from others and party politics was the reason you were given a referendum in the first place.
You have elements running things that seem willing to tear your unwritten constitution up to ultimately stay in power and save their own necks.
An opposition that seem every bit as much, part of the problem.
The Queen wishing she could stay out of it.
You all voted for this lot.

If that isn’t a basket case I’d hate to see it when things really fall apart.
Your stuck with this system and these clowns whatever your wishes for the future.

Best of luck. I genuinely wish you all well whatever happens.

Yes they did. It's just you were using a minority in one place to say that not everyone was behind the decision and I was doing the same. Not denying the outcome.

I've been arround the block enough times to know that whatever happens in Westminster nothing much changes in the rest of the country. What will be will be. The media have talked themselves into a fenzy but most people arnt that bothered by their shenanigans in Westminster. They are nearly all as bad as each other. Career politicians and civil servants. The populace voted out, but the majority of MPs want to stay in. That's the issue obviously. I can see several hung parliaments in future that's for sure. Finally why would we need your sympathy? As I pointed out UK plc is doing ok. Better than some in fact.
 
The notion that remain MP’s are the problem is nonsense and is still being trotted out I see.

There are many remain MP’s who have voted for more Brexit proposals in parliament than bloody leave MP’s have.

I know. It’s laughable.
It was a Tory Brexit voted down by the Tory Brexit ultras. How anyone can say different defies all logic and common sense.

Am I right in thinking many of the ERG haven’t voted for any form of Brexit since 2016? Only to keep no deal on the table?
 
Francios on Peston now...

Barnier saying today that "we're working on agreement".
Arlene and Leo, kissing in a tree...
It's no burning bush but it's a sign, none the less.
