Ian Dury should be compulsory for all those suffering the Brexit Blues.
Today very briefly, I offer you Farage achieving top place in the pre-EP opinion polling (which as a loyal Conservative I should deprecate cough cough) and Boris achieving top place in an Express leadership opinion poll. Add to this the spectacle of the self-loving little Sadiq Khan making an utter arse of himself in London trying to get down wiv der yoof (actually most of them went to £45k a year public schools and live in Surrey with Mummy) who in turn are pretending to get down wiv der Man.
Enough to make one smile.

Good Morning,
The EU election poll, highlighted on Guido, has given me hope too. Perhaps a thumping loss for the Tory party at local and EU polls will finally bring about the departure of that questionable life-form infesting No.10.
Ever hopeful!
We've had so many media driven proclamations of social and political changes that fade away into the grey background that I'm not holding my breath over the selection of a new Tory leader.
But The Brexit Party might be different. I doubt that that they will carry their popularity over into a General Election... but just as Farage and UKIP were a significant cause for holding the latest referendum, Farage and The Brexit Party could be a significant cause for resolving Brexit (or pressing for WAxit, if it comes to that).
The Conservative party needs to get back to its roots, common law, and free trade. The Brexit Party could show the way.
I prefer "My Old Man", it was the first tune I heard by Mr. Dury, as played by Charlie Gillet one sunday morning.
Unlike the majority's relationship with their "betters", this song talks about his rather strained relationship with his father, but portrays him as rather dignified, something that seems to be in short supply these days.
Happy Eater.
Just recently, I had declared that I would not bother voting for anything ever again. The reason being simple. Why bother? It changes nothing.
However, the Brexit party might just change that for me. Lets see if we get a candidate in the North West.
... the departure of that questionable life-form infesting No.10.
Not a chance. It will be our fault for not understanding.
Poisonedchalice :
The establishment/TPTB/the elites are only too happy for people to not vote in elections.
They would like to see the end of elections, particularly referendums and low voter turnout would be just the excuse they need to cancel them altogether.
So please always "vote" even if it means spoiling the ballot paper with a suitable message.
Spoiled ballot paper are recorded and numbers will be publicised if the numbers are sufficiently large to be newsworthy.

I am sure R-W means Happy Easter, or is he enjoying a good breakfast :-)
The fact that Boris got 80% highlights the poor alternatives. However, there are better than Boris available and he would be so pounded relentlessly by the MSM (all of whom have a dozen stories just waiting for the day)
Also, as we have seen, polls mean dick.
Brexit Party all the way in the EU elections IF we have them. My only fear is that disgruntled Conservatives will help BP but Labour will stay tribal and gain enormously: their partisan voting in all the recent HoP votes is what caused the delay (apart from Treason may that is!)
