A lot of thick young people (who shouldn't have the vote anyway) were fooled into voting for a bearded Lizard. That means they didn't know what they were voting for. People under 30 shouldn't have the vote, but older people over 55 should have two votes because they are wiser.<br /><br />I demand a second 2017 general election.!! When do I demand it? - Now!!!

This was the first one in 40 years, and it was a bloody struggle getting it. Secondly, when you lose (again) and by a larger majority you'll just keep asking for another one, and then presumably yet another until we come up with the "right result" a la Eire and Denmark.rapscallionnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-13482340901601555412017-09-29T14:15:50.834+01:002017-09-29T14:15:50.834+01:00Meanwhile in Kurdistan......

Worse likely than the EU already is.<br /><br />The joke is that the EU could safely let them go and Catalan politics would be even more poisonously "progressive" than the rest of the EU except for the Catalans desire for independence. Of course the Pukes in Brussels are control freaks and dare not allow anyone to think and decide for themselves. And thus Brussels and Madrid must fight "their kind of people" in Catalonia despite the fact that the Catalans are mostly good little progressives anyway except for their love of independence.
