Actually ... you're right on that one.
I was looking at your earlier posts, way back in 2010 when you were on about a FB campaign to get The Wurzel's, I Am A Cider Drinker, to No 1 at Christmas... some charity cause.

Did you do it? Did you change the course of a nation?

Sadly, I think the legacy you leave your grandhildren will be them remembering you as one of the people who ruined their lives, diminished their opportunities and reduced our country to poverty.

That's an absolutely shocking thing to say! Do you think your grandchildren would be proud of someone who says things like that? Shame on you!!!

How do you know what a whole generation are going to think ? They're just as likely to be proud of an independent Britain. They're just as like to say .. EU ? What EU? It imploded... and who was that bitter old wrinkly posting on a forum in 2017 fomenting war?

I think not. We will have to disagree on that one.

Now you know you can't do that Meg.

If you voted for Brexit you deserve to be stretched out on a rack, have traitor stamped on your forehead, then after you've been pilloried, wear a hair shirt or skirt, whatever your fancy .... and stumble down the cobbled street ringing a bell whilst shouting 'unclean, unclean' ... and be prepared to get spat on for someone will run across the street called Wise Woman Twizzle shouting 'shame, shame' who'll tether you to the back of a cart trundling through the Chunnel back to the EU loaded with a load of gold bullion bars to get back in.

As you know I'm pro-remain, but you've totally lost me as to how the Brexit vote will lead to war. The only way that this would lead to war is if France had voted for Le Pen and she had led them out of the EU (because that would have led to the breakdown of the union). But that didn't happen. France voted for Macron and thus cemented their commitment to the EU.

As Churchill said in his Zurich speech, as long as France and Germany remain united we should have relative peace in Europe. We aren't so important, but if our vote to leave had influenced others then yes I'd sort of see your logic. Although it would depend on who the others were. I think we are pretty safe for now. It's the Don I worry about...
