NO WAY BACK . . . . . .
. . . . BRITAIN LEAVES THE EUROPEAN UNION
AS IT HAPPENED . . . .
3.00am Pound Plummets already as early results show a significant pull
ahead for the LEAVE vote!
Worst trading day on record for the £ EVER. (Where's the Pound? Oh there
it goes off the bottom of the chart)
Chief engineer of the EU referendum Nigel Farage says "we will win
war whatever the outcome"! (So why exactly have we bothered Nige?!) didn't
know we were at war but hey . . . !
4.20am as the LEAVE campaign heads towards 52% of the share, a volatile pound hurtles
wildly out of control drops past the value of the Euro, hurtling past the
dollar and is headed below the chocolate coin in Little Johnny and his sister
Xenophobia's last year's Christmas stocking, Mr and Mrs Little Englander wake
on Friday morning to find the pound in their purses scarcely worth a pocketful
of brick dust, their house worth less than a tent in Istanbul and the
politicians considering giving themselves another double figure pay rise if
they can negotiate with the bankers the value of a fruitgum Boris found down
the back of the green leather banquette.
You mean they fell for it? |
Want (or need) a modicum of positivity on this sad day? Check out Paul
Mason. He even has a plan bless 'im!
Personally I think he is wrong but I would so like him to be right. It
might(I say might!?) make you feel a bit more positive that there are folks
like this thinking hard about what comes next.
He certainly has a point but I fear his wide eyed optimism here is way
off mark. Glad someone isn't feeling despondent and even naive enough to come
up with a plan but I have this terrible feeling he's wrong. It is not the
collapse of the neoliberal Blairite centralists it is the resurgence of a right
of centre working class self interested, xenophobic, blinkered and could care
less about our services, education and NHS being flogged off to Little Slimey Johnny HUNT and his cronies.
Sad sad day.
As PM Cameron resigns [well in October], we look forward to his replacement |
