I will raise a glass to your health and prosperity at twelve oclock. I already enjoyed the show on the cliffs of dover this morning.

Thanks Solasch. That is very gracious of you. Nicola has not arranged any celebrations up here so I will raise a glass from afar.

Would be more appropriate. The US declaration of Independence on July 4th 1776 was just the start of the battle to escape the clutches of Great Britain and be self governing, not the end.

April Fools'Day would be the most appropriate to remind all those who were foolish enough to vote for it.

Conversely, it would be an appropriate day for those who were foolish enough not to vote for it.

Time will tell either way.

When the new wears off, it may become a day of morning. Maybe someone needs to peer into Boris' crystal balls to see the future.

If things don't go pleasantly, you will not be able to find 10% of the population who voted for the exit.

What happens when it turns out to have been a good move? Will you celebrate it then?
