Brexit all done and dusted?

Why do you want to remain in the EU daphnedill? Fear?

I'm in the UK and support Remain.

We do not need to be in some kind of post war club anymore to keep some kind of "peace". It's done, we're getting out. Either you're with the UK or you're not. I find it pretty sad and ridiculous that arm chair politicians that know only what is fed to them cannot get with the programme.

It's a bloody farce and everyone should be well and truly over it.

How on earth do you know the "consequences" If you actually look at the 26 in the EU most, apart from a few are trying to get out of their countries for a better life, what's that about then. I wouldn't mind if it was half/half but it's not.

Labour does have a problem with Brexit, though.
There are lots of Labour constituencies where the MP voted remain and the constituents voted to leave. That's how the moneymen can back brexiters in those constituents.

Liberals are much clearer in that they want to remain.
All Tories obey the Great Leader on Brexit.

Labour is not convincing on Brexit. Jeremy Corbyn was as unenthusiastic and as invisible as Theresa May in the Remain campaign. I suspect both were either closet Leavers or "what's in it for me" opportunists.

If you think Brexit is wrong and damaging for our country you must vote Liberal Democrat.

However....

Labour's Brexit is different to Tory Brexit.

Yes -it's Brexit all the way regardless it seems. Answer by shadow women's minister - didn't get her name.

Apparently my question on BBC Askthis made live TV on the BBC Newchannel around 12:45 pm today. Sadly for me I was out at the time so never heard the answer

A leading Question to all party leaders

A lot more has come to light since the referendum so views have changed both ways. If during negotiations it becomes clear that remaining within the EU would be better for Britain should parliament have a free vote to overturn the referendum result (or may be call a second referendum)?

Did anyone hear the answer from Labour though TM's reply would be more interesting?

A colour 'to die for'?

talking about dye - my lovely new navy blue scarf has leaked dye (die?) all over my nice new cream top (it wasn't even raining at the time)
Bastardus!!

Any tips please Welshwife or shall I start another thread? I washed it 3 times in very hot water and it is a nice very pale navy now.

You say die I say dye
You say Bastardus I say Bastardis

Oh the first 2 sound the same!!? Bloody English spelling again!!

Thanks for a much needed laugh

sorry - Bastardus! I think

I mis-heard, and it has been a long time since then, my memory fails me.

Suetonious was scribbling it all down, even your exclamation 'Bastardis!!'

Suetonious was right, Caesar did say that, I remember it well.We were having a quick game of snakes and ladders before battle, and he confiscated our die (the bastard!)

The point of no return - aka as 'Crossing the Rubicon'

It's die !!

Alea iacta est ("The die is cast") is a Latin phrase attributed by Suetonius to Julius Caesar on January 10, 49 B.C. as he led his army across the Rubicon river in Northern Italy.

The dye is cast is of course a misspelling, but it’s not as common as we thought it might be.

You believe what you want to, Welshwife. (Do have a quick google later though...)

Of course you do...

I did fabric/weaving course at College and she always spoke of the dye being cast - often set with salt.

Except, of course, there is nothing to chance in this. We all knew this would happen.

I prefer Welshwife's explanation.

Also as I said - once the colour is in the fabric it cannot be removed -

However Brexit is a bit of a chance!
