I AM 74 and I thought I had seen and heard it all in my lifetime.

My little Scottish gran had four brothers, they all rest under slabs of white stone in France, fighting against the Kasier.

My dad fought in the Second World War in the RAF against Hitler, another bully, So did my wife’s dad who was at Dunkirk and later at Tobruk.

Their bravery holds no bounds and now without a bullet being fired, our country is once again confronted by more bullies, Jean- Claude Junker and the rest of the EU elite with Germany and France leading the charge.

They all want to teach us a lesson so no other country will consider following us out.

They will do anything to stop and wreck us for leaving without any consideration whatsoever, so after the majority voted to leave what does our brave nation have to protect its citizens against outrage?

What we have, unfortunately for us, is a majority of cowards who think they know better than the people who elected them.

Because of these overpaid selfservers, from all parties, we have now become a laughing stock around the world.

They should hang their heads in shame.

They bent over backwards at every turn to make it as painful as they can and we call this lot our friends and allies.

In the meantime we have established that rubber dinghies and outboard motors are one of the best sellers in France at the moment. I wonder why.
