May has done her job once more and that's to thwart Brexit once again, whilst giving the appearance of doing her best to bring it about, but devious forces have prevented her. True, but those forces are in the EU politburo. There is only one way this is going to succeed and that's to just walk away, full stop. Amongst ordinary people, the government machine is polling at an all time low and they want the whole system reforming. Let's start with the Lords, as that could be cut by 500 and still do its job. Each lord gets 300 quid a day to turn up. Many arrive by taxi, which sits outside whilst the noble Lord goes through the door, signs in and leaves in the same taxi, 300 quid, thank you very much. The Lords is a reward system for favours done to a sitting government. They are none elected, many have no political qualifications whatsoever or skills conducive to the complexity of governing a country. When I tell you that PM Cameron's wife's hairdresser got herself a peerage, you'll understand what I mean. Brexiteers are our deep state basket of deplorables. White racists, thugs, homophobes and a few other phobes thrown in, as you do, but the fact is, nothing in British politics has ever been so diverse across the whole spectrum of society in a democratic vote and this referendum produced. It's now growing too, as more people are disillusioned by the whole contrived process. Nobody reveals how many affluent people voted for it, plus 1 in 3 black and ethnics, 1 in 2 women and half the 25 to 49 year olds. Even Karachi, sorry Birmingham got a majority. Facts like these are very uncomfortable for the remoaners and do tend to make their ears bleed, along with the fact that only 6% of the entire population define themselves as European before British. Now we will have to spend 100 million on European elections to elect EU MP's which the majority of Brits have no desire to elect to another parliament. This is why I think the May elections (Not that May, as she'd bollox that up too) will bring out a large UKIP vote.

So now you all have been given until Halloween to get your shite together.

That's why I was thinking a re-vote might have been your best option but then that wouldn't have been too democratic, would it.

My point was if you hold a re-run it would be like saying the people who voted to exit and won that their vote don't really count or that majority does not rule anymore.

That's one way of putting it; the other is that we had no idea what we were voting for three years ago, now we do, so vote again on the facts as we now know them to be. The American people could use this same excuse in the States and say we had to idea what we were voting for two years ago but in the end it comes down to what you vote for is what you get, like it or not.

So where do we stand now. In out or back at square one.  

Will this interfere with on line shopping which the whole world seems to have moved to now?

What is the penalty for leaving the EU.  Your right, May doesn't look so bad after all, does she. How is the good eye doing Mark. Finished your touring get Major?

No penalty as such, but there is the not insignificant sum of £39 billion which is what they say we owe in prior commitments. If there's a deal that could be negotiated down, in theory if we leave without a deal then we could refuse to pay anything at all.

My eye is doing OK, no problems so far. I go back to work on Friday.

We then moved onto the fabulous Lake District and stayed at Cockermouth, where we toured from there.

Seems like a rude name for a place Major. I hesitate to ask how it got it's name.

Good that you canceled your trip to Canada's east coast Tommy. 4 places I was going to suggest you visit got bruised up in Dorian.

The town is situated at the point where the river Cocker flows into the larger river Derwent, hence mouth of the Cocker - Cockermouth. It is first recorded in around 1150 as Cokyrmoth.

RNAS Twatt was a naval air station in the Orkney Islands in WW II operational 1941-45. It continued as a little used reserve station until 1957. Had the war gone on much longer there were plans to double the capacity of RNAS Twatt with an additional 12 hangars.

The control tower today.

At least you didn't call them Cockermouths.

Close your good eye Mark, you shouldn't be reading this.

It seems your new PM has lied to Her Royal Highness the Queen for the reason why he wanted her to dissolve Parliament.  

It seems this blonde headed new leader who's barber should be executed by the way, only opens his mouth to exchange feet. 

I thought the ladies in the military were called Soldier's Comforts. Well they were during the second war.
