For centuries the European countries fought war after war. The Brits fought the French and the Spanish. The Prussians fought the French. The Austrians fought the Turks. Wars were the norm. There always seemed to be a Napoleon or a Hitler after a brief intermission. So the EU seems like a great idea in that it kindles mutual economic interdependence. You're not likely to shoot your best customers. The EU is a great idea gone awry because the administration has been taken over by leftists. They always screw up everything that they touch. At least they're consistent. Britain was smart to vote to leave. Until such time as the EU leadership can get their heads screwed on straight (unlikely) Britain is better off being indiependent.

So what will happen to the refugees who are there? Does that mean that no more will be allowed into the country?

So what will happen to the refugees who are there? Does that mean that no more will be allowed into the country? In the first place, most immigrants are NOT refugees. Secondly, we have always made it clear that refugees WILL continue to be allowed to come and to stay when they have moved here. So the answer to your question is a simple 'no.'

Things don't seem to be working for the primeminister as she has been asked to go. Thing are certainly up in the air at the moment. I wonder how it will end?

No doubt the majority vote will win in the end and then have to put up with whatever happens then.

Somehow , I seem to visualise the working class as always having their hand out, more than they are prepared to contribute.

I thought they were sponging off the Government? so weren't welcome.

So true. The problem today is that the number of people who work for a living has been exceeded by the number of people who vote for a living. I'm with you.!!! BTW any more amusing stories? I miss them. How about this one? The Hired Hand The banker saw his old friend, Tom, an eighty-year-old rancher. Tom had lost his wife a year or so before, and rumor had it that he was marrying a “mail order” bride. Being a good friend, the banker asked Tom if the rumor was true. Tom assured him that it was. The banker then asked Tom about the age of his new bride to be. Tom proudly said, “She'll be twenty-one in November.” Now the banker, being the wise man that he was, could see that the sexual appetite of a young woman could not be satisfied by an eighty-year-old man. Wanting his old friend's remaining years to be happy, the banker very tactfully suggested that Tom should consider getting a hired hand to help him out on the ranch, knowing nature would take its own course. Tom thought this was a good idea and said he would look for one right away. A few months later, the banker ran into Tom in town again. “How's the new wife”, asked the banker. Tom proudly said, “Good - she's pregnant.” The banker, happy that his sage advice had worked out, continued, “And how's the hired hand?” Tom said, “She's pregnant, too.”

And this
Italian Wedding Test
I was a very happy man.
My wonderful Italian girlfriend and I had been dating for over a year,
and so we decided to get married.
There was only one little thing bothering me....It was her beautiful
younger sister.
My prospective sister-in-law was twenty-two, wore very tight mini
skirts, and generally was bra-less.
She would regularly bend down when she was near me, and I always got
more than a nice view.
It had to be deliberate.
Because she never did it when she was near anyone else.
One day her 'little' sister called and asked me to come over to check
the wedding invitations.
She was alone when I arrived, and she whispered to me that she had
feelings and desires for me that she couldn't overcome.
She told me that she wanted me just once before I got married and
committed my life to her sister.
Well, I was in total shock, and couldn't say a word.
She said, 'I'm going upstairs to my bedroom, and if you want one last
wild fling, just come up and get me.’
I was stunned and frozen in shock as I watched her go up the stairs
I stood there for a moment, then turned and made a beeline straight to
the front door.
I opened the door, and headed straight towards my car.
Lo... And behold, my entire future family was standing outside, all clapping!
With tears in his eyes, my father-in-law put down his shotgun and
hugged me and said, 'We are very happy that you have passed our little
test. We couldn't ask for a better man for our daughter. Welcome to the
family.'
And the moral of this story is:
Always keep your condoms in your car!

The minute hired hand was mentioned, I thought to myself, that's done it. I naturally was expecting a different ending, can you guess what it was? It sure was a ripper.!!!
