    . It is this point that worries me and should worry some of you, it is the reason for some of my 'pessimism' you speak of.


    Saw your PM today with the Froggy one, was not too impressed with his comments about UK and EU.

    UK will have to deal with POLITICIANS from 26 other nations.

    John, I do think you worry too much, time for another cruise, of course the French are being pessemistic about our leaving, ze ave alvays vanted zees English to be bested by somevone, along wiz their German buddies for whom they lined all the roads and streets with trees so that they could march in the shade, ze now march hand in hand, ze French hanging onto the coat tails of new Reich, ze are upset zat zees unpredictable Engleesh are upsetting zer lovely little apple cart and there will be smaller portions of strudel whilst they have to pay the other 25 sleeping walking nations more to wake up and taste zee coffee. John WE WILL SURVIVE so relax buddy the British fortitude is alive and well even though some of the pundits would have it otherwise for their own nefarious reasons. The people of all hues I meet out socially are all very positive about the future and that is what is needed and not vice versa

    I like the comparison between the Frogs and a piece of toast, you can make soldiers out of a piece of toast.!! They have never beaten us yet, amazing how many men lost their lives freeing the Frogs from their German masters, now they don't want to let us have our freedom, kt

    Hi John.
    The stock market was supposed to be destroyed if the Brexit vote got up, a few jitters to start but a good example is the Aus markets, stocks on the Aus markets have had gains of 5% for the last week, then a bit of profit taking saw it drop 2points, it will go up again. As for the Britain losing their triple A rating, Moody's is the same
    company that gave a triple A rating to Leihman bros junk bonds which brought on the collapse in 2,000 London will always be the financial capital, all the old money will see to that. I have no doubt that once out of the EU Britain has the capacity to be if not great a good country to live in.
    Cheers Des

    After her meeting with the Froggy man there was anarticle on the net put out by a EU commentator from UK.

    As he sees it Junkers should be removed from all negotiations on Britex and it should be handled by other EU commissioners. He concluded that in his opinion two years would not be enough time to secure the divorce which as he said like so many others could be painful and messy. In his opinion France and Germany will do all they can to make it as hard as possible and thinks it could take up to six years!!!! is this guy having a lend of you I ask?

    Yes Gulliver I will support the out as long as the UK is in no way disadvantaged
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Life is too short to blend in.

    The Europeans CANNOT stop trading with us unless they want to cut their own throats, we BRITISH (I hate the expression 'Brits') only have to walk around our supermarkets to see that 60/70% of the shelves would be empty without European produce whether it be food or cleaning or other household products, even my beloved HP sauce is owned by the Dutch (I'm not sure whether or not Louis it's a Tory sauce) we WILL survive.
