one minute all lecturing and babbling about global harmony and sharing, next minute punishing anyone who isnt in their club.
i have no idea how the longer term of this will pan out, maybe britain suffers from not being in the hypocrites club, maybe it benefits from getting out before the contradictions ate themselves.
What I like best about Brexit, is the unwritten sub-title: "Really? You bastards think you're less f**ked up than we are. Let's split and let history record the score. Let's face it, the Honeymoon was over, and we were both tired of pretending to like each other."
Reading the article typhoon posted, ok, looking at the pictures, brought the following to mind: "All that men set their hearts on in this life is vanity, corruption, and trash. Men are like scuffling puppies or quarrelsome children who are all smiles one moment and in tears the next." Marcus Aurelius
Such pretentiousness in those who view themselves as superior.
"We are going to fix the world. You won't give us more money, power, and time. Yep, it's the people like you that are the problem."
Luckily, since the UK is an island, it will be less suspicious when it is air-brushed off the map of Europe.
