Maybe the government could ignore the result of this referendum. Are referendums legally binding in the constitution. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Referendums_in_the_United_Kingdom "Referendums are not legally binding" Just um and ah a bit and then go on as usual.

When I lived well away from London the birds seemed to survive the many cats on their wits - the cats would try stuff to like climbing up the center of hedges and lying still for hours. But we always still had plenty of birds. If no birds I suspect humans unfortunately.

Apparently Wales and Russia fans getting along just fine at the moment #WALRUS (unfortunately the official hashtag is #RUSWAL :( )

Baroness Warsi joins Remain due to Farage's antics (Leave said she always was Remain :) )

Stick your arms out and spin around (before your card is in of course) :) If anyone confronts - just point to the headphones.

As they said at the time - Corbyn's the Leave spy in the Remain camp. Felt the word inept was a little unfair :) His heart so obviously isn't in it - He just had to not answer much on immigration..

Pretty sure the kit today is Wales in Black England in Red.

I haven't seen one - might be buried in the Remain/Brexit lying stuff that I have loads of.

I'll bet you don't - but that's one of the reasons MPs want him to pay into the pension scheme - because he sold irresponsibly :) http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36536530 Edit - trivia is taking over - are they bringing Corbyn into it :) "In an extraordinary exchange, Sir Philip stopped mid-sentence at one point to rebuke Richard Fuller MP for "staring" at him. He said to Mr Fuller: "Sir, do you mind not looking at me like that all the time, it's really disturbing. You just want to stare at me, it's uncomfortable." Mr Fuller replied: "I don't wish to make you feel uncomfortable, Sir Philip... I think it is another parliamentary colleague that is known for his death stare."

Well Brexiteers and Remainers having a battle on the Thames at the moment - Captain Farage against Captain Geldof http://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/nigel-farage-and-bob-geldof-in-river-battle-on-the-thames-over-brexit-a3272161.html

It would end up being Debt again IMHO - Other Tories are now going to vote down any budget. Would be a year of chaos at least. Personally I think it should never have gone to a referendum - we can always blame Cameron for that.
-
Isn't the issue he didn't do due diligence on the person he sold it to. And obviously the guy who brought it didn't know what due diligence was :)

How do you know it's OK to eat (for the homeless that is) if it's been in the hands of a third party for a while (they could have done anything to it).

So unless we vote to remain Osborne is going to put 2% on basic rate of tax and 3% on higher rate - and cut NHS. Can he actually make threats like that ?

Make sure you are not eating when reading this

Stomach issues are horrible - and associated with mental illness. (the intestine is linked to the brain apparently) -

If the Russians continue as they have or attack Welsh or Slovak fans or the English (again) I fully expect them to go. Outside grounds has to be included as the English did nothing inside the ground and weren't charged.

Unsure There are very few of us compared to national polls - I probably tend toward remain :) I agree with the girl on Sky news on the result - a 10-15% remain majority whatever the polls say.

Has she done it yet ?
