Colin...you got interest from HSBC,even before Brexit?
Since when was Dolly Parton a philosopher,heheI see and I like. Quoting philosophers somehow elevates us to a higher emotional and intellectual plane from where we can look down upon the unwashed and view them with contempt. Sold, I'm having some of this:
I think BREXIT is adequately summarised by the words of Parton, written in the mid 1980s
Life is just a series of peaks and troughs. And you don’t know whether you’re in a trough until you’re climbing out, or on a peak until you’re coming down. And that’s it you know, you never know what’s round the corner. But it’s all good. ‘If you want the rainbow, you’ve gotta put up with the rain.’
(Dolly Parton 1986)
And you thought that she was just a big pair of tits. You dirty old dog
It's a common theme among remainers, so at least they are consistent.
Since September 1986. REGREXIT is but a myth put about by the remainers. As a true BREXITER, I chase Parton's rainbow.
Just be patient, the mythological status will change.
Sorry tillson, but Brexit is far better described by Spike Milligan's lineI see and I like. Quoting philosophers somehow elevates us to a higher emotional and intellectual plane from where we can regard the unwashed masses and ponder the absence of culture and intellect.

And you are just as likely to find a Pot of Gold at the end of that one too!
Votes for women...OMG...what next they will be driving cars and flying planes!
And an even more common view among leavers is the mistaken impression that Boris, Gove, Farage and the rest of the Menagerie of politicians pushing for Brexit, were not treating them with abject contempt and laughing at them.
Baldrick...you snivelling piece of earthworm....what cunning plan have you come up with this time.....sir,we are going to spend billions wrecking our country,telling our neighbours to go jump and send our best workers back to Poland ....on cunning plans Baldrick thats about the worst I have ever heard,even from your imbecile pea brain...if you say so sir but Brexit means Brexit.Sorry tillson, but Brexit is far better described by Spike Milligan's line
"We haven't got a plan so nothing can go wrong."
Actually Hilary Clinton paid for his Air Fare and accomodation. as an investment
yes sadly the tory rogering of the little people with brexit is well and truly past tense, now its just the small matter of the little people picking up the tab as well. However, strictly FWIW one small but very significant silver lining, for me, is the absurdity of it all. Can't speak for how you dear other forumites spend your time, but I somehow frequently find myself at present in the midst of real life pathos that doesn't feel good. I tend to read the forum and catch up on brexit news at 7 outside a café before work as a way to remind myself there's a hilariously mad world out there.
In the words of Maurice Lee
yup, somehow we've made it this far into the 21st century as a species with these three specimens as the epitome of the evolution of the species.
Indeed, in your situation where real human tragedy is something you see every day, the Whitehall Farce of Brexit must seem like a real life expression of the saying
Which prove as I have long suspected you are Clairvoyant, despite those rugged Charlton Heston looks.
These three are ideal to illustrate the old Chinese proverb on Evolution
