At last, someone else who actually sees the truth rather than what the BBC etc tell you to believe. It is clear to all those who bother to care, US and EU facilitated the overthrow of the Ukraine leader. What followed clearly backfired on them as Russia now has Crimea (Following a democratic vote and not invaded as the US and EU want you to believe)

Let me establish the fact that I have boundless admiration for the people who fought for the Allies in both world wars.At a later date, I served in the RAF for three years and was fortunate to emerge unscathed.If you can't stand the heat,don't come into the kitchen, that is my view of my own personal experience and no reflection on anyone else.
Nigel may have become less visible ,post Brexit ,but he was instrumental in bringing about the freedom of the British people from the tyrannical dictatorship that the EU has become. Tell me honestly, do you think that it is right for unelected beurocrats in Brussels to regard our parliament as nothing more than a local council? British people elect representatives to govern the country, not to be subservient to any other entity.
I have no shame in expressing my views,I am unashamedly English, despite the trend to demean our history and become the world champion of apologists.
No one knows what the future holds but I have confidence in the British people to adapt to whatever circumstances arise and make Britain great again.
By the way, your comments regarding the racist attacks and linking them to Leave supporters was out of order and a cheap shot.I ,just as an example, have friends from all over the world and I am sure that there are many in the Leave camp who can say the same. Shame on you.

Thank you Março, I have chosen to live out the Autumn of my days in the Algarve. Although of relatively restricted means, here,it is easy to have a good standard. of living non the less.
Fortunately, over the last nine years, I have been able to accumulate many friends both British and Portuguese, Dutch, Canadian and French
All differences between the two camps,Leave and Remain, should be forgotten and both camps should pull together in a united

Construction and Manufacturing both resilient in August. Analysts forecast no growth in the Services sector which accounts for 80%of our GDP, today announced the figure of over 52.Any sum over 50 represents growth.
As reported in today's Guardian. Thrive on UK, thrive on.

Yes,we are still a member of the EU but,if you remember, the Establishment forecast immediate disaster following a Leave vote. After the usual over the top response from the markets,the dust is now settling and,as well as the recent Industrial results, the pound sterling is rising.
Had the dire predictions happened, the media would have been full of "I told you so" lectures from the Establishment ,before you could say " Brexit ".
I agree that there are uncertain times ahead ,but please,whilst we are thriving, can we take a certain satisfaction in the present economic scenario in the UK.?
David Davies has had four years experience within the EU and is an authority on the way that it works,they will not bully or browbeat him.They have already tried,when he stated that trade agreements with other non EU countries was underway, they blustered that we had to have permission from the EU to open trade negotiations. His response, "What can they do,kick us out "!
In my opinion and that of the majority of British people, we can and will, prosper without being members of the EU .

Yes Phil of course people should be happy with the economic scenario. Negotiations will be hard and in my Humble opinion Brexit might not be what people think ,hopefully the deal negotiated by the Politicians will be a great deal to make Britain prosper even more. :)

Hi Luis,I'm glad that we agree that the important thing is for the politicians to negotiate the best possible deal for the future of the UK, with or without the EU.
As I have already stated,firstly,I am English, secondly, I am British and I love my country on both counts.If someone calls me a "Little Englander",that is the greatest compliment that I could ever receive.
Amen.
