I thought you were on about being responsible for everyone else's beer hunting ! well just the pm and cabinet. You probably wouldn't have to go Very far. There are lots of subsidised bars in parliment .

I would not be able to fulfil the requirements as I know nothing about waterways. Wrong answer; on present applied criteria that would make you supremely qualified.

My son (who I think you have met?) voted Remain in the 2016 referendum, but he tells me that if the referendum was re-run, then he would now vote Leave, as would most of his peer group. I think a major factor in this is the unaffordability of housing for his generation.
I voted Leave, and I would vote Leave again, because I would vote to keep my job, not see it disappear to be taken over by some Romanian or Bulgarian happy to work for £600 a month. Ans the bold bit is down to the E.U. because ... ?

My question still hasn't been answered, Are people not allowed to change their minds? We need to implement the first vote before considering mind changing. Once it's implemented, mind changing is impossible.The government of the day decided on the referendum with a binding result. Legally, the referendum was not binding, but the government said they'd implement the result.Politicians constantly make claims that prove groundless or are forgotten, the referendum was no different. Very true!
And the vote merely asked in or out ... there were no conditions or second guesses. You, like the rest of us, have to accept the democratic view and see it through. ... and, if by some chance, May manages to get her "deal" accepted by Westminster, we'll end up in (in everything but name) for the foreseeable future. Still subject to EU regulations, free movement and in the Customs union, but with no representation at the European parliament, for as long as the EU wants that situation to continue. Is that really what Brexiters voted for??

1. Wages have gone down, thanks to the sudden influx of cheap labour from Eastern Europe, Africa and the Middle East, all encouraged, nay, forced upon the UK by the EU, so young people will never be able to save, by working in an ordinary job, to buy their own property. How many of them living with Mum & Dad these days?
2. The rich retire to the Cotswolds and Devon and artificially raise the value of their properties with the aim that none of these undesirables get a footstep within their twee little village.
3. Not sure about this one, but where is all this cheap labour living? If in Council accommodation, then they have jumped the housing queue, surely ??!! I mean, there was nothing available in Hertford/Ware when I went round to the Council offices in 1986 - so just where are all these recent incomers living? In Farmer Gangmaster's chicken hut? If there is no housing available, I'm suggesting that's because if there was anything going it's all been taken up by the swarms that descended on the UK when Eastern European countries had their borders opened by the EU with the knowledge that there would be mass flight away from their home slums. And, of course, Theresa May and her evil Conservative chums use a lack of housing and security as a way to have the poor wandering from employer to employer cap in hand.

I never bet but must admit I was slightly tempted to put something on May getting her deal through. It is against the odds etc but something somewhere tells me it will get done. Pragmatism. Not what anyone (who voted) wants.

Having said that, I think you might be right, but in a few years time (if not before) the realisation that democracy HAS been crushed in good old UK, won’t wash. I predict the next hot summer will do it.

I was sort of keeping my fingers crossed for another hot summer next year. Not in a political sense more in an enjoyment of going out boating in the sun before the collapse of civilisation sense

Thatcher was an evil cow, and it's a pity some of her cronies are still alive today - who was that slimy one who got his secretary up the duff, then had a gagging order slapped on her so she'd get thrown in prison if she told? Slimy Reptile

Ah Cecil. Dear Cecil.
One thing I have noticed is that they tend to put women in charge when shit is in process of hitting fans. Either women or effeminate men like Tiny Blur. Thatcher = bad shit. Blair = bad shit (OK so yes it was Gordon but he's pretty girly too). That fish faced bloke now its May = bad shit.
What we need now is a Real Man to lead the country out of all this shit.
Or a well fit bird might be OK !
