Why oh why oh why is there all this negativity all the time. The country voted out, and that is that. The BBC are daily pumping out crap and doom. Making mountains out of molehills.
As an example...during the campaign, the 'Battle Bus'....... sign written with '£350 million to the EU. Lets fund our NHS.' Now where on that bus did it state that we would fund the NHS to the tune of £350 million. Twisted reporting again.
When I see people on the street being interviewed, they are all positive, whether they voted to remain or leave. Why the hell can't the 'upper echelon' be the same and get this country on the up. Still trolling doom and gloom >:(

Boris did a good competent effective job in two terms as Mayor of London. This is Boris the political operator.

Boris the showman IMO is tacky.

Boris the buffoon he learn't from Reagan, if you are not taken too seriously by the opposition, you get much more done, much quicker where you are underestimated. But he IMO can be too clever for his own good.

The left Remainers have their knives and intolerant out against us Leavers, not only in the UK but all over Europe, where they, know, just know what is best for all of us, at all times, in all circumstances! :( Boris as a the Leave figurehead is the devil incarnate, he has just got 17.8m votes for a round Earth, that orbits the sun. Many Remainers are pushing back as conventional left-wing wisdom dictates the Earth is flat and is at the centre of the universe. I push back with my first sentence normally as my Twitter reply as deeds are worth a million politicians words.

Like all exceptional people he has his flaws, like Churchill and Thatcher who didn't do bad when push came to shove, nor will Boris.

Like with Lloyd-George, just make sure if he is paying you visit, you lock up your wife and daughters as he has a reputation, like Lord Opti as an expert swordsman! :o :o :o

I like Boris and find him a warm and engaging character. I do find his appointment as Foreign Secretary a little bizarre, but listening to him speaking on the steps of the Foreign Office about repositioning Britain's place in the world was a breath of fresh air after all the doom and gloom recently!  :y

What this Government MUST do though is ensure that we are out of the EU and it's all done and dusted before the next election in 2020, otherwise that election will be all about the bloody EU and we HAVE to move on from that!  :y

I was speaking with a woman this morning who insisted we are no longer a part of the EU. :-\

People who voted out want to see a bit more movement, especially as we now have a new PM.

Get on with it.  :y

I'm not, Mr Rods.
I voted remain and I lost. It happens. I'm happy to go with the majority who want to get things moving. :y

If it comes to pass, it will take years and years and years to unravel it all.  Just two areas to think about. Foreign owned companies in the UK employing mainly UK people. Secondly UK owned companies operating in EU countries employing mostly none Uk staff. The complexities are mind boggling when you start digging. Pensions, workers rights for example. Should boost the GDP of Europe including the Uk with all the people needed to unravel it all. Some great job opportunities there for folk.

I quite agree. The Beeb is still commissioning programmes which have sly sideways digs at leavers. (David Aaronovitch yesterday). Because they were on the side of Remain, they are pumping out. 'Yah boo, sour grapes programmes,' yet it will be some years probably, before, what I believe, will be the successful emergence from our entanglement with the sinking ship which is the European Federation. >:
It also rather amusing to see the SNP, desperate to remove themselves from the Union, being equally desperate to join the failing EU. You gotta larf. :y

IF, and it is a big IF, but if the EU goes go tit's up then 'wee Jimmy Krankie' from north of Hadrian's wall is going to look ever so slightly silly.
