    Very little to argue with in this post its spot on. Really difficult to see how the UK can recover from this. Seems a massive con trick has been played on the working class they ultimately will be the big losers,

    Yes absolutely bang on, I would argue with your "poltroonery reference we were more conned that chickened out. We were told in no uncertain terms that if we wanted to remain in the EU we had to vote no. But yes tho I disagree with the outcome of the vote. the English were indeed brave in their decision

    billy ya mad bassa.....what a load o guff

    labour sold their soul for rock n roll and turned their back on the working man years ago......long afore UKIP were even thought o.

    and they sold out coz they knew they were unelectable.

    the days o the extreme left wingers are done, dusted and assigned tae the dustbin o history.

    it was extreme left wingers that brought down labour from within....derek hatton and all those militant kants, they brought down labour. Just look at the mess they made o liverpool.....they couldn'a run a bath never mind run a city

    just you go and take a look at what a "real" labour man says on the EU......go and read up on Jim Sillars.

    He's SNP but still more of a Labour man than most.
