The Brexit Fiasco: Now Some Say They're Sorry

It's been barely two days since the Brexit referendum, and no doubt some LEAVE supporters are still celebrating their big victory.

But not all of them. Some of them it seems are now having sober second thoughts.

And what with the pound having fallen to a thirty-year low, the stock markets shuddering, and the country split down the middle, and in danger of falling apart.

Now some of them are saying they're sorry.

And even in the pro-LEAVE Daily Mail, admitting they didn't know what they were doing.





Or frantically Googling "What is the EU?" 

Or desperately signing this petition.

But of course it's too late now, the EU wants them out as soon as possible. Like tomorrow.

And now that they've won their referendum, the LEAVE leaders are already breaking their promises...



Like the one they painted on the side of their campaign bus, or their promise to end immigration from Europe. 

Within hours of the result on Friday morning, the Ukip leader, Nigel Farage, had distanced himself from the claim that £350m of EU contributions could instead be spent on the NHS, while the Tory MEP Daniel Hannan said free movement could result in similar levels of immigration after Brexit.

Hannan said: “Frankly, if people watching think that they have voted and there is now going to be zero immigration from the EU, they are going to be disappointed.”

And since these LEAVE supporters were out in Newcastle yesterday, not just demanding that all immigration be stopped...



But also that those in the country be immediately deported.

I can only imagine how they might react when they find out they've been suckered...

And leave you to imagine what kind of country Britain, or Little England, is becoming.

And the good news?

It seems that a lot of REMAIN supporters are thinking of moving to Canada.



Which is excellent, because you can be sure that none of them would EVER vote for the Cons.

While others are thinking of moving to Scotland.

For as this map so clearly shows, the Scots like the people of Northern Ireland, weren't fooled by the hollow promises of the LEAVE leaders, or moved by their toxic bigotry.



Now both are thinking of holding their own referendums. And in Scotland it seems the desire to escape the nightmare that Britain is becoming, couldn't be stronger. 

Nearly 60 percent of Scots now support Scottish independence after Britain voted to leave the European Union this week, according to a new opinion poll.

The Sunday Post said 59 per cent of respondents in the poll backed independence from the United Kingdom. That was sharply higher than the 45 per cent of votes cast in favour of independence at a referendum in 2014 which resulted in the country staying in the UK.

And after thinking about all of the above, for at least five minutes, these are my first conclusions:

One, whatever we do let's NOT hold a referendum on electoral reform, for the ignorant are easily confused.

Let's just agree what system we want, ram it through Parliament, and bury the Cons forever.

And two, if in this ugly sometimes frightening world, Canada and Scotland are seen as good places to live...



We must be doing something right. I was right to tattoo a similar image over my heart when I was just fifteen, even though my Mum practically fainted.

And we should ALL be proud of ourselves.

The bigots couldn't fool us, the Con bullies couldn't scare us. Woohoo !!!

Scotland AND Canada forever. 

Have a great Sunday everybody...
