Oh yeah now I remember.........windy? (It often is) No but Miss Slave is having half term off and weather looks decent until the weekend.
It’s been a bit windy at night but overall the weather is decent. We were here in Jube and the wife’s father said it looked nice when we showed him the holiday snaps.
He’s on the final lap of life’s grea race so we brought him and the dragon in law over for a wee break.

It was easier when we brought the kids in the summer. I’m currently babysitting him in a bar in Los Cristianos whilst the wife and the dragon in law are buying tat in the market.
Very sad. I voted REMAIN, yet the British public voted LEAVE. Democracy has to rule. The public vote on the deal is a joke. We elected a government to govern, so let them make the decisions. None of us know how to run a country, so don't pretend to know what is good for the whole of Britain. None of us know what is being said behind closed doors, so please just let the politicians deal with it.

I would imagine the outrage will come from the leavers when they actually really how much damage Brexit is going to do to them.
It's a bit like ITFC. All the cries for change are now turning into reality. Brexit will be the same.
You really don’t know though do you,you are giving your opinion on what you think might happen. Either group can point us the direction they believe,if all this bickering by our so called politicians had not started after the vote and actually worked together for the good of the country then I believe we would be in a stronger position for it!

This is the perfect time for remainers. They can predict anything, the more negative the better, and get pats on the back.
Chances are medium-long term little will change. Short term there clearly will be a bit of an adjustment period.

I think that's extremely harsh, lots of people are incredibly worried about the future of our country, particularly the impact a financial crisis could have on public services and the vulnerable.
I certainly hope you're right with the second paragraph but not sure what you're basing it on?
Is 'a bit of an adjustment period' a euphemistic way of saying life is going to get a lot tougher for lots of people who already struggle?
I'm pretty ambivalent about the march and don't want a second vote but I fear all the 'project fear' labelling could look pretty silly in a few years time.

But the politicians look more interested in their careers and looking after their own parties. If this is "running a country" then we'd be better off with no-one in charge.

I don't think it's harsh. With each passing week remainer hysteria gets ramped up and the predictions darken. I don't know what will happen (neither do remainers but they love telling us with certainty) but I suspect we'll see a last minute deal where there will be no 'cliff edge', no dramatic difference to every day life and everything will go on as normal. To quote Chico I suspect we'll be half out rather than half in.
I might be wrong and if you want to argue that my prediction makes it pointless leaving in the first place so why take the risk then that's completely different. I would agree with that. I do think fear is the remainer weapon of choice though when logic suggests that while we wont have the exact same benefits as being in the EU it's in everyone's interests to be sensible. Look at the reaction to financial markets and the economy. The powers that be are obsessed with money and profit. If the markets dip it's a major thing and they want to prop them up. I doubt anyone is going to risk a European downturn out of spite. If they do it says a lot about both sides.

I think the predictions are worsening because a no deal brexit looks increasingly likely, something we were assured was an impossibility (they need us more than we need them, German car industry etc etc etc).
If you're right, and we see a last minute deal, then that's great and I'd be quite happy with something that respects the referendum result and yet minimises the financial impact.
Politicians on both sides need to grow up and stop throwing their toys about because they're not going to get exactly what their small faction wants. This is an incredibly sensitive and difficult situation and every bit of self-serving grandstanding from Boris, JRM, Cable or the entire Labour party, risks worsening an already bad job.
The worst part of brexit has already happened in my eyes, the small minded UKIP loons now emboldened and absolutely sure that they represent the majority of the population.

You misunderstand the purpose of the march which is to demand a peoples' vote on the exact terms and meaning of leaving. I dont know any Brexit bigot who is happy with the current situation either. A key benefit of a third referendum is that IF there are any idiots who still think leaving is a good idea then they can pay 20% more tax. This helps them to be 20% worse off, which tney crave, whilst contributing to rebuilding the damage already inflicted on the country and its peop!e. Meanwhi!e the rest of us get our country back.
I'm guessing under the same logic that those who voted to stay will then contribute to the next bail out of a minority country that calapses.

I think I do.
Already those in business I know that voted leave are finding times hard and blaming the governments sorting of it rather than the decision they made. Wit until the waves swallow the mear mortals; some of whoo at the moment have not realised how much this is costing them. I was never sure what we stood to gain from this whole catasrophe.
