I don't know any closer to you, but The Ace of Clubs on St Alphonsus Rd, London SW4 7AS Phone:020 7720 7206 They provide food for vulnerable and hungry people and always took donations.

????? - that is just completely out of order.

sorry if you don't, but I thought it was really funny

this was sent to me..... sorry about the language.... it's quite funny - but really I would really like to hear a plan with such conviction.... Fellow Remain voters: Enough already. Yes, we're all ****** off but navel gazing ain't gonna help. Not all 17 million Leave voters can possibly be racist northern pensioners without an O level to their name. Maybe they have a point about this quitting the EU thing? Maybe not. Whatever, we are where we are and no amount a whinging is gonna change that. Allegedly we're the intelligent ones, so get your thinking caps on. Leave voters. Well done. Good game. We hear you. Now you need to get stuck in to the aftermath and not just go back to Wetherspoons. And the first person to say they "want their country back" gets deported to Gibraltar. OK? Politicians. David. F*** off. Shut the door behind you. Now. George. You may be a **** but you're our ****. Plus you know the passwords for our Junior Savers account. Get your calculator. Drop the face-like-a-slapped-ass routine. You're on. Boris. Sorry mate. That photo of you abseiling by your scrotum over the London Olympics while waving a Union Jack can't ever be un-taken. Plus, you'll never be able to appear on Question Time again without some sturdy Glaswegian nurse asking where her 350 million quid is. Not only will she have a very good point, she'll be wearing a T shirt that shows you gurning in front of that bus! No captains hat for you I'm afraid. Theresa. You're in charge love. Get the biggest shoulder pads you've got. We need Ming The Merciless in drag and you'll scare the shit out of 'em. Nicola. Yep. Fair cop. You probably could get us on a technicality, as could London. But we love shortbread. And oil. And to be honest you're probably the best politician we've got, so we need you on side. Sort your lot out and we promise never to mention that Jimmy Krankie thing again (although it is pretty uncanny) and we'll make you a Dame once we're sorted. Bring Ruth Davidson. She kicks ass. Opposition party. We'll need one. Someone take Jeremy and John back to the British Legion Club where you found them. Take Nigel as well. Give back their sandals, buy them a pint, then go to Heathrow and collect David Milliband. F*** it. Lets gets Ed Balls as well. He keeps George on his toes. I think he works on the lottery kiosk at Morrisons now? Oh. And Mark Carney. Give him a knighthood and tell him to keep that **** coming. We definitely need more of that! Everyone set? Right. Hold the Easyjet. We're going to Brussels and this ain't no hen party.

oh, there was one - EU distinction between Swede and Turnip - as they didn't like the Cornsih calling them both Turnips. They created a ruling against that. We can now call swede 'turnip' and vice versa. Not that I use either word very often...but we can if we want.

British Champagne - cheaper transportation - good for local economy and a boost for the farmers markets since importing fruita nd veg will be expensive

no, WM - that's not true. I think we've talked about not belittling other's opinions. So we have racist 'Leave', Super Intelligent 'Remain', Lazy 'couldn't make my mind up'..... let's not start on each other. If this has pulled out the worst of any side - it's the worst of ALL sides - yes, Remain too. We now have NO governemt. That woudl actually help. The fact our PM thought it best to run away from responsibility doesn't say much, does it. This is not about immigration (as that covers SO many things) it's about the volume of people and the pressure on Infrastructure. This is bordering on hysteria.

This is now a full blown constitutional crisis....

Interestingly, we're all united in the knowledge our leaders couldn't run a bath. Roll on tomorrow -
Let's start a game - like fantasy football, but with politicians and who we would like to be in our government.
-
The referendum is - in itself - less that that. It's an indication of what the electorate want. The fact that it has brought out so many lies, dirty-=dealings - uncomfortable truths - here and across EU - means that this will never go back to Business As Usual. Pandora's box of opinion and mettle has been well and truly opened. Now, it's time to do something about it.
-
Well FORTUNATELY, the politicians themselves will not be negotiating the trade deal/ exit deals. Because Cameron resigned - and he was our PM, we need a new PM to initiate the changes. Hence the confusion. The blame game is clearly afoot. Corbyn - well - did he really do that badly? Labour constituencies voted Remain quite vehmently. CAmeron should have got his house in order and failed. Boris - we'll I'd have expected something to be lined up - perhaps it's just not been announced yet. Has he actually said the opposite? Can we officially call this after the dessert, Eton Mess?

Joe, I wasn't actually pointing all of that directly at you. I was speaking generally, about some of the posts on here. It's not hard to scroll through them and see who is being a bit out of order. Ithink we've even started swearing at each other now (nice work WM) -

It's really not fair to call people racist Joe. In fact it's downright out of order. I doubt anyone cares what colour your wife is - but than you for letting us know. Emotive or not, it's just a reflection on yourselves how you treat other people - there are plenty of insults / put downs which we could all rise above. It is shocking how poor our government is - but if taht is actually a surprise to anyone, you probably needed a wake up call.... there are many people who have noticed it. Cameron quits to teach Boris a lesson.... how puerile. Absolutely pathetic behaviour. Do you really think that sniping at each other is going to make anything better - except perhaps how you feel yourself? If - yes, If - we had a governemnt with spine then leading change would be a better story - we would have direction and then some expectation of what we would strive for in our global trade deals. Change - at any level - is daunting. Let alone when you don't knw where you're going. It doesn't mean that it has to be bad - but it's a very basic thing to know where you want to go. There's a number of people on here who I just thank God I don't have disagreeing with me on a day to day basis. I hope you don't behave like this at home. -

blahblahblah With every day that passes, it becomes increasingly clear how we've been led to the abyss by a small group of privileged boys who have decided to play Russian roulette with all of our livelihoods for the end game of an Eton power struggle. that's been the case for a long time, but we can only vote to like one or the other - and we haven't liked them for a long time. Which is now painfully apparent. -
are you more worried about the shadow cabinet that the one supposedly leading the country? That's distinctly unsettling in itself.
-
we can have strawberry jam on toast, rather than 'conserve' and hoovers that actually have some welly
-
and that's bad? #edited as out of sync and referring to resignations comment
-
Benn being sacked doesn't mean the dissolution of the labour party, New Girl At least we know they still exist - rather than the Chancellor - who may as well have vapourised.
-
more foreign investment - embracing the rest of the world! Wine from Oz! A new Government.

People vote for reasons that apply to them personally. Most of UK wanted out - and 40% of London did too. There are no doubt many varied reasons for both sides to have voted - and votes for remain are as likely to have been driven by fear of the unknown (better the devil you know) as votes for leave were driven by appetite for change/ dissatisfaction. It's true that both political sides lied to get the voters on their side. It's more true now, that we need to work together - cross party collaboration - to get the best for Britain and move forward. It may even bring positive changes to the EU for the countries remaining. It does not mean we will follow Norway for a single market at all. It does not mean the banks will all move out of London - the banking passport will ensure movement across EU zones.
-
Not all racists voted for Brexit - and not all who votes for Brexit are racist. Generalisations are really quite dangerous. People on both sides of the vote fell foul of the lies of each side. Each side have valid points to make. If anything, it's shown how weak our own governemt is, how dismissive the EU are of the general people and how necessary change is - in both sections of this. The World is bigger than Europe and while it will take time to settle and parties to reform - and agreements to be made, the anger needs to cool. Heated, angry decsions will do no good.
-
While EU is reacting by demanding an immediate exit, it's not doing itself any favours either, to rush. Other EU countries are dissatisfied who are more wholly involved in EU than UK ever was. What is required are mature politics, not knee jerk reactions. UK will start negotiations but it needs to stabilise itself. There is turmoil of course - all kinds of activity in the Labour Party overnight and quiet on the Tory front (disappointed but hardly surprised by Cameron's resignation).
-
If a second referendum were granted, it would need a greater turn out that the first i.e. over three quarters of the popultation. At best, you'd get all the original remain, plus some converts less those that can't be bothered to turn up again. How realistic would it be to be voted by an even higher number than the Actual Referendum.
