BREXIT

Brexit is the problem of the day,

Worst of all we have to pay.

And if we don’t and no deal looms,

Will they sue us in EU rooms?

 

Then there’s Boris, determined Brexiteer,

In Remainers puts gloom and fear.

Also Corbyn has his six rules,

 But all we are left with is a houseful of fools.

 

So the country is sadly split,

But no one is happy when nothing fits.

All the negotiation was for nothing,

Was Theresa May really a blue stocking?

 

So in the end we have No Deal,

But it’s the poor left to reel.

As it happens the rich won’t care,

But will the country ever repair?

yes, us poor voted to be out, apart from Scotland where we  did not hide our doubts. What we want to say is we want Europe and England to go away.

Hi Celticman,

I think they have opened a can of worms. It's a  knotty problem !

Thanks for reading.      angry

A real muddle, and many probably just worried what might happen if …

The original Common Market association seemed to be working fairly well, from what I sort-of remember until the push for stronger unity, and the increasing bureaucracy and detailed rules! Rhiannon

Hi Rhiannon,

Thanks for reading this short diatribe. I think you are right, it all started out very well but when we learn from TV programmes Rumanian families are coming here and taking a lot of benefits and saying 'Thank you England' for building me a new house back in Rumania it has all gone too far and freedom of movement and access to English benefits was definitely an issue! I personally am sick of the whole thing and just wish it was settled.
