I am seeing a lot of support for independence from former "better together" supporters. It is hard to look at Boris and his cabinet and not want to run away very fast indeed. What a shower of self serving shitehawks.

Well he’s pledged to recruit 20,000 Police which automatically makes him more productive than what his predecessor did :lol:
Let’s hope they don’t all end up becoming traffic police.

Would that be the 20,000 the Tory government axed over the last decade then? Also who would believe any pledge coming out of him?

We sat on camping chairs and slept on an air bed

We didn’t want to order furniture until we had moved in as there were so many last minute delays. We learned then that basically all Sodas you buy a made to order...
